Coal Mine Owners Fight Legislation Operators Launch Fight Against Bill |j Washington. Feb. 19 —* (UP) — ! Coal Inine operators opened a fight in the house today\ to defeat prb-i posed legislation empowering the government to enforce its mine safety rules. The Natipnal Coal asscM-iation! 1c l off the attack by bramftng the proposal “unconstitutional” andwarning it inevitably will lead s o “an-irrpparallle blow to the cause of mine safety.” Industry spokesmen presented I. ♦,’ieir case at a house labor sub committee hearing on what they called the federal "police power’ll 1 bill urgently requested by presi-J ' dent Truman and strongly support-! td by John L. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers. The senate labor committee al-; leady has held hearings on a simi- ■ lar bill. The house measure would g’ive: the interior department's bureau? of mines authority to close down any mines which federal inspectors consider dangerous. Secretary of interior Oscar L. f Chapman yesterday urged the subr committee to put “more teeth” in , the bill by giving the bureau added authority to keep a mine closed t until dangerous conditions have L been corrected. k Federal inspectors now can . recommend ways of eliminating k hazards, hut have no way of enj forcing their recommendations. s The coal association's case was presented by Robert E. Lee Hall, its general counsel. He pointed out that the organization represents mine owners operators } in 28 who produce spine 7$ I percent of all the commercial bi’.urniuoiis coal mined ia this coun;- ’ tfy. ' I ' Hall argued that the pending bill violates the constitution because ? . ■ 11- ? I it would: , 1. Deprive mine owners of "substantial property rights” without he due process of law guaranteed by the fifth anil sixth amendments; 2. Authorize an “unwarranted . encroachment” upon rights re- . served to the states. r The association said the record of mine safety has been “continuously Improving’’ over the past 25 j vears and “It has not been demonsirated i that this legislation will promote the cause; of safety.” i . 1
