Independent coal operators seek defined stance in wage talks
Scranton Nov 2 Independent coal operators have not yet decided their position on the tentative agreement between large coal companies and the strike commission. A nine-member committee will travel to New York to meet presidents, aiming to learn from them while demanding concessions on freight and profit sharing. The group insists any settlement must include wage concessions and protections against price hikes at the consumer level, noting independents prefer not to sell directly to buyers and rely on coal carriers for distribution.
