SATURDAY, OCTOBE t, 1960
CINCINNATI (A) John L.
Lewis quickly smothered a small
revolt in the United Mine Work
ers Union yesterday over curbing
certain welfare benefits. He said
UMW aid is still the most liberal
on the American labor scene.
Lewis, 80-year-old UMW presi
dent emeritus since he retired
last January from a 40-year rule
as miners' union president, coun
seled delegates at the union's 43rd
convention to heed advice of lead
ers and guard against division in
UMW ranks.
"Slander your welfare fund,"
Lewis said, "and it will not be
long before you will have lots of
help from people who want to
fight you for possession of your
welfare fund."
The convention dispute came
up on pleas of a few local union
leaders to restore full eligibility
of unemployed miners to medi
cal-hospital benefits.
Fund trustees, headed by Lew
is, recently directed thai such
benefits he ended for miners idle
a year or more. . .
Lewis blamed the criticism to
union troublemakers.
He said the welfare fund, with
some $llO million reserves, bad
spent in the last two years about
$3O million more than revenues
.received.
