Miners Wages Talks Set Amid Secret Pleas for Higher Pay
United Mine Workers prepare for wage talks with coal mine owners in New York after days of district meetings urging higher pay and better conditions. Northern and Southern groups clash over demands, with threats of April strikes if a new contract is not agreed. Leaders press for a $2 daily raise, an $8 minimum, and unionization, while operators propose a 40 hour week, overtime after hours, and other concessions. The union argues the cost would be borne by the nation and opposes War Labor Board formulas.
