Miners Examine New Pact Amid Growing Opposition
Thousands of coal miners view a proposed contract as UMW leaders present details at coalfield rallies and on media. District 28 oppose the deal citing old language. District 6 delegates vote against ratification. The 160,000 miners' pact offers a 37 percent wage rise over three years and new health benefit costs. Voting and explanations proceed across districts with televised and radio ads and limited travel by leaders. The formal vote timing spans Friday or Saturday with results uncertain.
