Although Lewis stepped down as president, he remains chairman of the UMW welfare fund, which paid out $lB millions more last year than taken in. The fund may have laid itself open for criticism because it eliminated some card-holders who have been out of the coal industry a year or more. The convention opened in a year of declining employment in the coal industry Currently, ■ about 200.000 members are actually working in the coal fields, compared to about 250.000 four years ago.
