WILD-CAT STRIKES
FIFTY THOUSAND MINERS IDLE IN U.S.A. RESUMPTION OF NEGOTIATIONS. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) NEW YORK, June 19. The Federated Mine Workers’Association and the soft coal operators have agreed to return to the conference table in order to seek a basis for averting another strike when the truce expires at midnight tomorrow, says the Washington correspondent of the Associated Press, quoting an informed source. The miners and operators have not necessarily agreed to .resume collective bargaining on the merits of the miners’ demands, but they “will see what is to be done about the Labour Board’s order.”
Meanwhile an estimated total of 50, 000 of the nation’s 500,000 miners have been idle in a series of unauthorised “wild-cat” strikes following upon the Labour Board's refusal to sanction payment for travel time.
