Miners Reluctant to Return to Work in Coal Pits

McGuire issued an injunction ordering an end to the strike and coal operators to bargain over pensions. John L Lewis urged miners to act freely and return only if they choose. Utah miners prepared a meeting to discuss the issue as contempt penalties loomed for Lewis. The strike has disrupted coal production and strained steel and rail industries while railroad unions face a separate wage dispute with the carriers.
