Lewis Adopts New Strategy For Miners Pay Rise
John L. Lewis moves to push for a $1.90 a day wage boost for hard coal miners to test the Wage Stabilization Board. The drive mirrors a prior soft coal victory but the WSB has set a $1.50 daily limit, prompting a walkout by about 350,000 soft coal diggers. Western Pennsylvania anthracite miners had earlier won a 30 to 50 cent shift in royalties into the union welfare fund, plus a 10 cent boost for the soft coal welfare fund. The outlook suggests the WSB will likely stick to the $1.50 ceiling.

Victims include James Barton, David Rennan, Harold Hilbert, and Don Walker, with two captives still unaccounted for as a wide ground and air search continues.
