Miners near three year contract amid pay board review
The Pay Board plans to hear soft coal miners and the Bituminous Coal Operators Association on a three year contract as wage rolls for construction workers face a freeze rollback risk. The Pay Board allowed most nonconstruction raises to proceed but linked construction wage delays to committee approval. The same day the Price Commission approved a 2.5 percent car price rise for 1972 models and IRS noted a surge in inquiries as phase two opened.

Pay Board rejects retroactive faculty pay again
Minnesota state college system chancellor G Theodore Mitau plans to seek Gov Wendell Anderson and Atty Gen Warren Spannaus aid after the Pay Board kept denying retroactive wage increases lost during Nixon’s 90 day freeze. Mitau called the vote disappointing and urged action to honor contracts and equal salary treatment statewide. University of Minnesota President Malcolm Moos had already said university faculty would receive the retroactive hikes.
