NEW YORK rV- Concerned over a developing fuel scarcity, the United States department of labor sent an ace mediator today before a deadlocked conference of Appalachian soft coal operators and union officials.
John R. Steelman, chief of the United States conciliation service, entered the dispute as government mediator. The shutdown, which has kept more than 350,000 miners idle since April 1, went into its fourth week today. His assignment by Secretary of Labor Perkins to attempt a settlement reflected growing anxiety by the administration over dwindling soft coal reserves of government institutions, public utilities, railroads, munidpalites and private industry. It was learned the labor department planned to appoint a special three-man mediation board in a few days should Steelman fail to bring the Warring operators and CIO President John L.
Lewis' powerful United Mine Workers union to terms. MERCURY SOARS AS SPRING TAKES HOLD Slightly Cooler Tuesday, Bureau Prediction. The weatherman could hold his head up today. He was back in the good graces of the nose snif- flers, the golf bugs, baseball fans, motorists, pedestrians, and just about 6everybody for that honesx-to-goodness spring weather he dished up over the weekend. To celebrate, the weatherman fixed it to have more morning work than usual with his record ing instruments on the roof atop the Minahan building, where he turned his face to the sun and the gentle breeze and just basked In spring.
When the weatherman peeked at the thermometer along about 10 o'clock morning he found the mercury sitting pretty at 70 degrees, the highest mark of the year, and spelling a fine day all the way around. The mercury was due to go up a few more degrees, just to make the records definite. For tomorrow the weatherman saw slightly cooler weather, but nothing along the line of last week, which everyone was in the act of forgetting today. It is true, the weatherman thought showers were probable tonight, but saw little cause for alarm in his pre diction. In his record book the weather man had a little matter of 63 de greet listed at 3 o'clock yester day afternoon and temperatures all above 50 degrees throughout the night, adding up to about the warmest 24 hour stretch tms year, To top it off, the weatherman, like hundreds of others, was at work today without his nose snif fie of last week.
All in all, spring certainly appeared to ba here. CHANGES D. D.

a a of in Druggists Ask Injunction to Halt Price Cutting. The Reed Drug company, which opened a store here Friday, was named today in a temporary injunction restraining it from selling merchandise at less than the minimum retail prices set by contract under the Fair Trade Practice act Four Green Bay druggists Merrill Thomas, Harry Vine, Gus Noel and Harrison Harmon signed the petition in behalf of the Green Bay Druggists' association. The petitioners claim that they and all other druggists complying with the fair trade contract are damaged by the sales through the loss of trade and of good-will. The specific violation charged is the sale of Campana's Italian balm for 39 cents, when the minimum contract price is 57 cents. A copy of the contract and a bottle of the balm bearing the 39-cent price marking were submitted as exhibits, together with a copy of the company's advertisem*nt in the Press-Gazette quoting the balm at 39 cents.
