Anti Miller Miners Gather to Recall UMW Leader
About 100 coal miners met in Beckley West Virginia to push a recall of Arnold Miller as president of the United Mine Workers. They drafted a six point resolution challenging the executive board’s earlier decision to discard a recall petition and opposed moving the union convention to Miami Florida amid criticisms of the state’s right to work laws and ERA stance. The group denounced the Denver board’s refusal to consider the recall, calling it a flagrant disregard of recall provisions.
