Lausche Blames Strip-Mine Owners For Rejection Of Two Appointees

Ohio Governor Frank Lausche blamed strip-mine owners for the Senate rejection of Milton Ronsheim and Clarence Fay to the Reclamation Board of Review.

Boyd for lacking industry alignment. Ronsheim has long pushed for strict strip mining regulation. Fay was seen as not sympathetic to other operators. The two had been asked to serve though neither actively sought the posts. The board oversees actions of the reclamation division aimed at leveling, reforesting, and reseeding mined land.
