Mine Fund Distribution Meeting Set FARMNGTON, W. Va. (UP!) The Citizens Mine Disaster Committee decided Friday night to meet with the widows of 18 men nho were killed in the Man- tiingtoo mine Iragedy of. last November to decide how to distribute $200,000 of relief funds. The money was sent to the area after the men were trapped by an explosion Nov.

20. The miners were given up Jor dead Nov. 20 when tie portals were ordered sealed. Earlier Friday, the Citizens Committee dislribuled the last of lire food that was donated in the aftermath of the disaster. It took the action after being criticised by several of the widows for falling to distribute the money, food and several hundred children's toys.

"We didn't set a time for the meeting," co chairman Jess Borowski said. "But we decided to sit down and talk about the money with the ladies." The committee was on record as favoring a trust fund set-up Jor the 121 children lelt fatherless by the disaster. However, some of the women charged collusion and set up the Widows Mine Disaster' Committee to serve as a watchdog for the lunds. Farmington Fire Chief Vernon Richards answered the criticism levied against those in charge of the goods, saying, "I know what f've done. I don't have to make any excuses." Richards said, however, that the criticism did "hurt a lot of the people who have been working real hard on this tiling." He said the disaster fund--at least the food and toys-- also compensated the families of men who lost their jobs because of the Mannington explosions." Therefore, Richards said, "The goods went to helf a lot more than 18 families." Theater Opens.
