Miller Faces Test as UMW Union Strife Threatens Leader
Arnold Miller, leader of the United Mine Workers, confronts a 26 day strike that pulled 120,000 miners from eight states over court involvement in disputes. He urged a limited right to strike in a new contract, faced taunts and calls to resign, and saw a turnaround after rallying 600 miners in Richwood and 500 in Welch, with dissidents blaming slow action and internal rifts.
