Poland Martial Law Follows Labor Strikes and Solidarity
The large labor federation Solidarity calls for a February referendum on a non Communist government amid 16 months of upheaval prompting Jaruzelski to declare martial law. U S Secretary Haig said Poland should be allowed to pursue industrial democracy while Tass condemns Washington. A separate report describes Israelis and Golan Arabs reacting to annexation debates with mixed feelings. In Tennessee, four defendants face murder charges including a priest's death after a prior capital sentence for an officer's slaying.

Coal Companies Work On Deal
Two southern West Virginia coal firms discuss a deal where Westmoreland Coal would trade East Gulf mines for 35 percent of Slab Fork Coal.
