Coal Industry Battles For Full 1.90 Pay Increase
AWSB ruling limiting coal miners to 1.50 per day sparked a near 350000 soft coal miners strike lasting a week. President Truman pressed for prompt consideration of a full 1.90 pay raise while industry warned against a higher increase, fearing inflation mockery of new terms. Present arrangement gives 1.50 daily base with 0.40 pending approval, similar to 65000 anthracite miners who also receive 1.50 today and 0.40 later if approved.
