Local Mines Not Working In Coal Strike Standoff
The coal strike persists as unions at G. B. Markle & Co. Coxe Bros. & Co. and Pardee & Co. refuse to return to work. They demand adherence to a Roosevelt brokered settlement allowing workers to resume under arbitration terms, while operators insist on individual job applications and signed pledges to abide by the arbitration findings. Union meetings at Drifton and Jeddo vow to stay out until the firms permit resumption on the agreed conditions.
