He cites public opinion, anti strike law, wage-deferment threats, and draft deferment withdrawal as potential tools while miners’ loyalty between the union and the administration remains unsettled.

Allies Plan Major 1944 European Push With Soviet Aid
Washington reports that Allied strategy envisions defeating Germany in 1944 and Japan in 1946, with Italy neutralized early and the Soviet Union kept in the war. The plan hinges on U.S. and Britain using Russian manpower, seizing Sicily and Crete, and pushing a spring 1944 campaign toward unconditional German surrender while Japan’s assault potential is delayed by monsoon in Burma and the China airbase network.
