Bevan's Coal Pit Roots Shape A Leader In Waiting
Britain's Health Minister Aneurin Bevan, at age 14, began work in a Welsh coal pit and endured gruelling nights in darkness and fetid air. His years underground sharpened his sense of social injustice and fueled the drive that has made him a prominent figure in the present government. Conservatives and Labourists alike see him as a future prime minister, while he stresses coal miners' eight-hour days and slave-like labor amid the ongoing coal crisis. Bevan also notes the U.S. manpower problem if oil had not substituted coal for heating and industry.
