'■-.V -—Igp Washington, April rD—The War Labor Board turned the soft dm! wag, dispute over to the White House vsaterday thus heading it tax a final showdown between President Roosevelt and John L. Lewis, the United Mine Workers' cWeftiat. With 81,000 miners already idle doe to unauthorised walkouts, the labor board said it only could torn to the White Hsfea* since its own orders and appeals for eontinued production had been ignoraf| U added that, |n its opinion, the mine ease most Ito handled like any other-wider established procedures, , and that if any exception Is made the whole system of handling wartime industrial quarrels would break down. The dispute confronted the Praridentt with challenges en two major points: I. The UMWs refused to submit its esse to the War Labor Board, the agency Mr. Roosevelt established as a court of final resort for all wartime labor disputes. (In a letter to Seccetary of Labor Perkins, the UMW Tuesday demanded withdrawal of .the ease from the WLB, saying members of the government agency had a "malignant prejudice" against the UMW.) L The UMWs dastards for wage incrsaaas without regard - for .the "Little Steel" formula which has become basic government policy by incorporation in the President's hold-tho-lfna order against inflation. Overshadowing tinse issues, however, was the immecafce question of whether Mr. Koosevelt could avert a crippling halt in the production of fuel necessary to keep the wheels of war production turning. Scarcely veiling the threat of a general work stoppage by 600,000 miners, Lewis has declared that in the abssuce of a new sgreement by Friday midnight — when a temporary understanding with the operators expires—the miners "will not trespass" on company property. In sending the case to the White House, the War Labo*- Board said in "The NWLB unanimously avd ifaspty believes that the people! on the homo tent in the United States am filled with a calm, but grim determmatisn to exert their very ntmest efforts for maximum production of those war materials which are necessary to conserve the lives sad to crown with success the war efforts of their sons and brothers who are st the fighting front Recent newe from Mr. and Met-J.
