LEWIS's annual order for a United Mine Workers walkout. Some experts think that the UMW boss calls these strikes out of habit, to get attention or merely to throw his weight around. The other opinion is that Lewis's deep regard for his miners is his sole motivation. These theories are examined extensively in the story beginning on page 24. Highlighting NEWSWEEK'S report are details about Lewis's personal life hitherto unpublished. The cover photo, by International, was taken during one of the many Lewis appearances before a Congressional committee. THIS WEEK: LEWIS LIKED IT: When John L. Lewis was selected as this week's cover subject, mention was made of the fact that the mine workers' boss liked the Dec. 2, 1946, cover picture (see cut) of a typical coal miner so much that he had it enlarged and mounted with an engraved plate bearing the miner's name (Charles McCawley) - Eventually Mr. McCawley will wind up in the policy-committee room or the board room of the UMW building at 15th and I Streets, N. W., Washington. Out of curiosity, we checked the original paragraph describing the cover picture for that Dec. 2, 1946; issue. The following sentence jumped right out of the page at us: "In the meantime, the nation's railroads, steel mills, and utilities prepared for a long winter of curtailed operations." Sounds familiar. DON'T MISS: The Foreign Affairs report on plans for sending planes to Tito if the shooting starts (page 39) and the exclusive account on page 34 of the near crisis in British-Italian relations . . - The detailed analysis of prob- lems currently confronting Wall Street twenty years after the crash (page 64) . . - The National Affairs preview of key elections in the East (pages 21 and 22).
