Abstract

The article focuses on a strike by John L. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers of America (UMW) regarding U.S. Supreme Court's order on an accident at Centralia Coal Co. An accident took place at the Mine No. 5 of Centralia, which killed 111 miners. The UMW has demanded strict enforcement of federal and state mine regulations. Centralia's Mine No. 5 was inspected in November, 1946 and 60 articles in the federal mine safety code were then being violated.
