THE PITTSBURGH PRESS. WEDNESDAY, MARCH 28. 1945 PAGE 7 Maybe cNo Probably 'Yes' Is Verdict on Miner's Ballot Federal Action Expected in Coal Deadlock In Search of Good Company I Dare Say Extension or Mine Seizure Awaited By FLORENCE FISHER PARRY I've been doing some "good" reading lately. That is, I've been reading some old and new pieces, I If tefel if few burn as they wait line to vote at Montour No. 10 mine of Pittsburgh Coal at Library.

CHECKING ELIGIBILITY OF MINERS for voting in today election, clerks appointed by the NLRB scan their master lists as miners obtain their ballots.

Waynesburg. WASHINGTON, March 28 (UP) The soft coal wage conferences completed another futile negotiat ing session today as the nation's 400,000 miners cast ballots expected to affirm their willingness to strike when their present contract expires at midnight Saturday. Chairman Ezra Van Horn of the joint wage conference announced at the end of the day's session that "we have made no progress and have recessed until 10 a. m. tomor- row." By that time, the result of the strike vote will be known officially and the government may have acted to prevent an interruption of the flow of coal to the nation's war plants.

Still Deadlocked The conference still was dead locked on several issues. Chief among them was the demand of Unitea Mine Workers' President i John L. Lewis for a royalty of 10 cents on every ton of coal mined. The miners have not yet drafted their reply to Solid Fuels Administrator Harold L. Tckes' request of two days ago that the present contract be extended 30 days.

The operators agreed to Mr. Ickes' proposal, but with conditions the union was not likely to accept. A union spokesman said that even if the miners' reply were agreed upon, it probably would not be mra PupUf until after the of the strike vote are announced. Th UMW tradition has bpen No" work" But tne miners were known to be willing to continue work in case of Govern- ment seizure pending settlement of the dispute with the producers, No Agreement Expected Secretary of Labor Frances Per kins expressed hope last night that the parties would settle their dif ferences and reach an agreement before the expiration of the present contract. But the operators and UMW representatives, who had tS'JZ.

Botn sides unofficially disclaimed that they were any closer to an agreement as a result of Miss Perkins' proposal for a lump sum wage increase in lieu of an item-by-item settlement of the UMW's 18 demands. Anthracite Problem Next The NLRB meanwhile started preparations for conducting a simt lar poll among 62,000 anthracite I coal miners who are members of the UMW. The union yesterday asked a strike poll in the hard coal region which will be conducted April 26. The UMW alleged that a dispute I exists between the union and oper ators over the new contract on which negotiations will start In New York on April 4. The present agreement expires April 30.

Miners View Poll Announced by War Department Today A record list of 8007 casualties was announced today, including 1586 killed, 4050 wounded and 2371 prisoners of war. Of these 14 dead, 65 wounded and 29 prisoners were from Allegheny County and 33 TO STRIKE OR NOT TO STRIKE, this miner drops his ballot into the box at the Pittsburgh Coal Montour No. 10 mine at Library.

Mary i-sAsConfidenceVote by John O'Hara, John Steinbeck, Evelyn Waugh, Ernest Hemin gway, Aldous Huxley, Gertrude Stein. Quite a coterie of Good people, you'd say. They sure know how to write! John Haras stories, recently published, grab hold Mrs. Parry of you like a terrier the neck of a kitten. The stories are devastating.

John Steinbeck's "Cannery Row" took me places I couldn't designate here by name, although Steinbeck calls them "decent, clean, honest, wholesome." A second reading of Evelyn Waugh's "Vile Bodies" was like a second cocktail on an empty stomach. Ernest Hemingway's "To Have and Have Not" (which I simply HAD to leaf through Again, after I saw the mangled movie of the same name contained more raw meat than a black market. Aldous Huxley's "Time Must Have a Stop'' gave me that appalling sense of being seedy. Even Gertrude Stein's "Wars I Have Seen." with all its utterly utter simplicity, possessed me with a suspicion that in such company as hers such an ordinary creature as I would be woefully out of place, an unmitigated bore. But after thus session with My Betters, I find myselt turning with infinite relief to those of My World: my children, their babies, my family and friends; it is like walking into a well-aired room full of awfully nice people.

They Prefer Sums What really got me down was Steinbeck's novel and Hara short stories. O'Hara could have bpen Hemingway in his choice of hard-bitten roughnecks as his heroes. Steinbeck's glorification of the Do-less is getting to be an old story; and no critic's rave is going to induce me to read another of his books until I am assured that it contains material about people who do NOT sleep their underwear and pick their teeth with a pen-knife. I wouldn't mind so much if I thought that these gifted authors deliberately selected human trash as merely the most interesting available "copy." But the suspicion obtrudes; these men actually PREFER these "Real People," so-called, whom they celebrate. They PREFER waterfront loafers and floozies; they consider them not only picturesque but charm ing and infinitely superior to those who earn the room they take up in this world.

Now whereas Steinbeck and O'Hara glorify The Bum, Waugh and Huxley select as their ideal Copy the Do-less who straddle the other end of the see-saw. Be 'his as it may, there has bren an unconscionable output of unhealthy literature lately "Trio," "The Lost Week-End." even the outrageous Salvadore Dali revelation. Boston's Watch and Ward Society has had a field day, publishers vying with each other to enlist this preposterous organization's ban on their respective outputs. Why Shun Good Company? You would think, would you not, that tl fiction field would not need to narrow down to a pharp choice between the Bums-who-Have and the Bums-who-Have-Not? You would think that surely there could be found material for a really good novel featuring decent productive members of society who make up the read-ins public? Evidently respectable people get no kick out of reading about their own kind. Can that be it? Or is the reading public afraid of it.s normalcy, and simply doesn't like to admit a taste for Good Company in its fiction? (I sometimes suspect that readers of fiction are guilty of the same self-ronsciousness as that which afflicts theatergoers who are afraid of nothing so much as being suspected of being shocked, or symphony audiences who are worried sick lest they be accused of not being familiar with the music played.) It Is as though respectability could not stand on its own virtue, but must be made the butt of the author wit and perspicacity.
