The agreement which may be announced by the Big Three of the European war must be of utn.ost concern to the Nazis because of their effect on the next crucial months of the conflict, inning those months Germany. \\ liilc devoid of all hope of vielorv. may still try for a peace short i:f unconditional surrender. ; t!.c meantime, as some nbservt i ■ <ve see the situation, the N. /is i i . expected to tiso all the vilos i.i their propaganda machine to st.i'. «■ "M niter deleat and to create :is nvuh confusion «as possible isi Ail ied ranks.

One of the most talked of sub jects on which some announcement may be made is just what unconditional surrender would mean not only to the people of (•ci many hut also to the popuI 'ti'ius of axis-domination countries such as those in the Balkan.. Some political experts I eel that a timely appeal to the dominated peoples, now that Kussian armies are approaching so dc.se to tlicir borders, might help liring about their surrender. S 1,-irly it has been suggested i:i • i i 'lies from London that an .\1iieil statement to the German peol'"f hacked by Roosevelt.

(Inicnitiiiuitul) Ickes-Lewis Agreement Quirk Seen WLB Approved Not Wage Increase But Increase in Earning Washinjjotn. Nov. ::i)—(AIM —.A quirk in tilt- aKreemcnt between Interior Secretary Ickes and John L. Lewis—regarded in «>r»e quarters as an underlying: fiction—came to the fore today on the liasis of data prepared by the Solids Fuels Administration. It explains in part why coal prices arc going tip. even though the War Labor IVmrd say > it did not approve a wage increase. It indicates, too, why another coal crisis may be hatching. What (hi* War Labor fto.iril approved was not a wage increase. hut an increase in earnings. The WLB justified its approval on the basis of an increased production time of one hour a day. Hut the increase in working time i based in pari on an assumption, and therein lies the asserted fiction. Its extent is disclosed in a letter from Stabilization Director Fred Vinson t<> the OPA authorizing price increases Average 17 cents a ton. Vinson said the solid fuels administrator (Ickes) told him the increased labor costs resulting from the new wage agreement should be computed on an estimated "production increase of approximately eight per cent by reason "1 the additional work time provided for in the agreement." This « percent increase in production is substantially shoit of the amoir l due fr»m an addition normal hour of work. Mathematically, the increase would be more than 14 percent. In other words. Ickes now estimate he will get o ty f>fi percent of normal production for the addii tion.il hour b>i which the WLB a>i proved wage payments at time and ! ;i half rate. Operators doubt it will i be tti it high. Lower Quality Materiel Reflects Impact Of Raids Aberdeen Proving Ground.
