Way Clear To Resume Wage Talks
Justice Goldsborough ruled in favor of miner leader John L. Lewis approving a $100 monthly pension plan for retired miners. Ezra Van Horn, trustee for operators of the United Mine Workers welfare fund, had sought a court order blocking payments. The judge called the plan reasonable and proper, marking Lewis’s first courtroom triumph after prior contempt fines during walkout disputes tied to a six week last spring strike. Senator Styles Bridges aided the pension plan, while Van Horn opposed it, contending illegality. See WAY CLEAR (Continued on Page Two).
