Strike Threat at Madrid New Mexico Coal Mines

Madrid New Mexico August 20 AP Prospects of a strike at the Albuquerque and Cerrillos Coal Company mine near Madrid within two weeks hinge on a United Mine Workers demand. Union leader Pill Zurek says demands will be presented to the company and mailed to Washington. If no agreement is reached, a strike may occur. The union seeks $350 deducted for coal shortage refunded, reinstatement of two workers, a company signatory to a union contract, and a wage scale aligned with the coal code. Zurek attributes the shortage to defective machines, while the company cites 291 tons less than expected and pay deductions. Two workers were reportedly discharged for street fighting. Nicholas Fontecchio accuses the firm of corrupt practices and anti union discrimination.
