...decision stunned Government attorneys and operators. The miners had worked out a way to beat the Taft-Hartley Act injunction, which was designed to handle labor disputes in a national crisis. While Welly Hopkins received the congratulations of friends, President Truman took the only course that was still left open to him. Shaking his finger with mild indignation at the union and the operators, he asked Congress for authority to seize the mines. The power he asked for could put the mines under Government ownership until July 1, 1951. With such a chilling prospect before the operators, Lewis knew that...

Federal Judge Richmond Keech, who had ordered Lewis to send his men back to work, ordered the U.M.W. into court later this week. The union would have to show why it should not be held in contempt of the Taft-Hartley injunction that its men were defying. With his two instructions on the record, Lewis himself had an obvious defense. In any case, that argument might drag out. Meanwhile, what about the coal?
