Washington coal wage dispute stalls planned fines
June 11 report on the soft coal conflict shows Secretary Ickes weighing a plan to deduct 5 from miners pay and the War Labor Board preparing a decision. United Mine Workers at Windsor Pa voted to strike over portal-to-portal pay and about 200 workers missed the first shift. Ickes signaled a path to collective bargaining with government mine managers to escape the pay deductions, while the Board mulls a next week decision that could reshape penalties and conservatively honor existing contracts.
