Predict Closed Shop For Miners
Pittsburgh April 10. Prediction that United Mine Workers within ten days would win a closed shop or elimination of strike penalties in a new wage contract for bituminous coal diggers came today from District President P. T. Fagan. The second week of the soft coal mine shutdown due to lapse of the 1937 working agreement shows reluctance to forecast how long talks will take. Rivalry between AFL and CIO is cited as prolonging negotiations, with Progressive Miners Union claiming locals in about 200 mines and AFL backing from William Green. UMWA seeks either a closed shop or removal of strike penalties clause in the expired agreement, shaping the Appalachian region.
