Mr. Warren told of a munber of ways to com-bet injuries at this moire.

Probably the molt ltllactory method is to place wire guards around newly planted trees. This guard should be of heavy. small- meeh galvanized wire. about 1B inches high and large enough to allow for the growtlh of the tree for a number of years. These should he sot into the ground a couple of inches.

A cheaper method II t0 wrap the trees tn the early fail with building or tarre-d paper 18 inches high and mounded with earth at the bottom to prevent mice from working underneath the bands.

Another method is to mound the tree up with earth as high as l8 inches. This will protect the trees during winters of fairly light mow falls.

All orchards ln sod are benefit- ed by clearing away the grass and ‘ivefeda around the treu for about

eet and filling in with coal ashes. This discourages the mice which like tn work from cover. ‘Mr. George H. Deacon of Free- own claim: he has successfully ‘med i Paint prerparation of 1-4 lib. gilreein and a pint of methyl alco-

By Harold W. Ward

NEW YORK, Dec. 1 —(AP) — John L. Lewis today ended a full- rcaie national soft-coal strike by putting 400.000 bituminous miners on a three-day work week.

The three-day work week ordered will apply also to 80.000 hard-coal miners who have been working five days weekly.

The move. which President Tru- man was reported to have known about in advance, wiped out the prospect of a country-wide coal emergency requiring White House intervention under the Taft-Hart- ley labor law.

Lewis’ Elm-man policy committee. which had had its meetings post- poned here all week while the United Mine Workers’ chief devel- rnped his strategy. approved r res-o lution directing that the three-day week become effective Monday, Doc. 5, in all union mines.

A tlllTfc-“IOBIC truce had expired last night at midnight imd the min- ers started hcme.

Will Seek Contracts

Lewis and his committee now will attempt to make contracts sep- arately wtlh individual companies- tossing out immediate efforts to win a country-wide contract. The resolution said. that the short “reek —1with production only Monday. Tuesday and Wednesday. and an "irreducible minimum of mainten- aiiioe work" on the other days- would be dropped as contracts are signed. '

President Harry Moses of the I-LC. Frick Coke Company said in Pittsburgh that: his firm “will con- tinue to offer the miners work for as many days a. week as they will m»

This offer was repeated by George H. Love, who represents the oper- ators’ negotiating commttteepf the national bituminous wage confer- ence. He said Lewis’ move does not alter the basic contract dispute be- tween the union and operators.

He termed the order "inhuman and wrong."

By his action Lewis now contin- ues the flow of money into the welfare fund—a major item of con- cern to Lewis and the miners. and a big issue in the contract dead- lock which has developed in t-hc last. six months. Tho contract ex- pired June 3).
