Jobless Benefits Test Is Speeded
FRANKFORT Ky June 7 Unemployment compensation claims totaling about 25 000 coal miners idle during contract negotiations were refused a third time and sped toward a court test. John Young Brown Lexington attorney for the United Mine Workers sought affirmation to permit suit while the commission retained jurisdiction of about 3 000 cases where miners were idle due to seasonal unemployment or lack of orders. A commission member said benefit payments would begin for those not recalled after the contract unless the fault of the worker. The panel found the unemployment due to a bona fide labor dispute making the claims not allowable under the statute.
