WASHINGTON (AP) The
government was reported seeking a

owners negotiate a contract to

operated pits.
Secretary of Interior J. A. Krug

er two highly-secret conferences on
Wednesday.
Lewis may serve notice he in

contract in five days. Almost in
evitably, this would lead to a walk
out of his 400,000 soft-coal diggers
on November 20 since the miners
do not work without a contract.
While Lewis kept silent, the op-

erators told Krug they were will
ing to meet with the miners' boss in
an effort to avoid a crippling new
strike.
Krug was reported by one opera
tor to be seeking a commitment
from Lewis to keep the miners
working say for a 60-day period
until agreement can be reached on
a private contract that would per
mit early return to the mines to
the operators.
The owners have been serving as
mine managers since the govern
ment seized the pits in last spring's
59-day strike. Efforts by the opera
tors and miners to come to terms
failed at that time. After the gov
ernment stepped in, Krug made a
contract with Lewis which ended
the shutdown. Lewis contends that
the government breached the
agreement by "misinterpretations"
of vacation pay provisions and oth
er matters.
Furthermore, Lewis said, there
had been changes in government
wage policy hinting at new wage
and hour demands. He has not yet
made those demands known.
Krug held brief sessions with five
leading operators and with Lewis'
group. The outlook appeared
gloomy. As the miners filed out of
the conference with Krug they
were unusually grim.

September production of trucks
and passenger cars showed a mod

dustry's previous trend toward pre
war production levels, according to
the Civilian Production Adminis

the biggest drop, falling to 92,044
units from 105.506 produced in
