Miners Claim Wage Rise Won't Justify Coal Price Hikes
Ellis Searles for United Mine Workers says the 27 percent wage increase for bituminous miners cannot justify coal price jumps of 65 cents to 1.50 per ton. He notes cost of production can rise 40 to 50 cents and blames operators for passing costs to the public. Union officials warn against excess profits and predict trouble over a proposed 60 percent wage demand amid ongoing talks with operators in the anthracite field.
