Claims Two Counties Favored by Lower Coal Wages
In Des Moines Iowa on September 8 coal operators argued that Ajgwanoose and Wayne counties should keep a minimum eight dollar and seventy five cent daily wage while other counties pay four dollars seventy cents under the bituminous coal code. The dispute widens as the United Mine Workers of Iowa push 2,500 miners back to work amid a strike seeking a thirty hour week and five dollar daily minimum. Pickets blocked mine reopenings in Williamson and nearby areas though deputies claimed miners would return after hearing the code. A later report notes a partial return to work in Lone County with several miners resuming duties.
