Wage Stabilization Board Cuts Soft Coal Wage Increase
The Wage Stabilization board reduces the 1.90 daily rise for 350,000 soft coal miners to 1.85, despite industry and union agreement. About 80 percent of mines are affected immediately, with the rest not in the contract. Henry Fowler notes the move aligns with stabilization policy, while John Lewis and industry officials express anger and uncertainty. Stockpiles are frozen and miners face a smaller raise under the one year contract.
