UMW May Include Supervisory Men In District Resumes
BECKLEY June 17 A report said efforts would resume to bring supervisory employees under United Mine Workers control as coal operations in the field would return to private ownership next week. John L. Lewis informed George J. Titler that government control would end next Wednesday. Lewis and Edward R. Burke reached an agreement covering southern group operations except Jewel Ridge Coal Co of Virginia, which contests portal-to-portal pay. John McAlpine said the War Labor Board had assumed jurisdiction over disputes in his union and plans to file grievances with WLB and NLRB once ownership returns are certified. Grievances include lack of union recognition, nonuniform wages, and missing vacation periods.
