Eight Hour Legislation Sways Montana Senate Debates
Special to Inter Mountain Helena reports the Montana senate committee on mines and mining debates eight hour laws for miners in smelters and underground, with Quinn Hobson bills under review. Boston & Montana Mining officials say they will enforce eight hours in smelters regardless of passage, needing to hire up to 1,200 more workers for a new Great Falls plant. Wethey and Hogan warn of wage increases and skill gaps. The outcome hinges on committee reports and potential votes as fusion factions clash and amid partisan harmony or delay.
