5000 Miners Strike In Dispute Over Quitting Time
LANSFORD Pa five thousand miners walked out at six Panther Valley Lehigh Navigation Coal Co mines in a dispute over quitting time. Coaldale workers stopped work in sympathy and the five other mines did not enter pits. The walkout began yesterday at Coaldale and spread to the valley. Union officials said workers left due to a seven hour shift while miners said conditions were abnormal and argued for a five hour shift. Abnormal conditions occur when damp pits or gas are present. Union and company officials planned talks to resume operations.

Republicans See Early Tax Cuts, Favor Waiting on Budget
A Ways and Means poll shows most Republicans favor an early personal income tax cut but want Congress to decide the budget size first. Many Democrats also back reductions if feasible, but doubt enough savings exist now. A broad wait-and-see stance dominates, with only a few backing Knutson's 20 percent proposal. Several named Republicans express support for a cut after budget clarity.
