Plan For Miners Strike Outlined Nationwide Vote Set
The National Labor Relations Board plans 4,000 polling sites to conduct a strike vote among 400,000 soft coal miners on March 28. John L. Lewis says a dispute exists under the Smith Connally War Labor Disputes act, triggering a ballot within 30 days. The agency will deploy 4,000 special agents for at least three days at an estimated cost of 300,000 dollars to support 140 field examiners. Miners will vote on their own time to prevent coal production loss. The nation is divided into regions for the vote.
