News and World Report. By EDDIE WILES District coal miners are fearful the proiwsed new contract 1 be "forced our throats" Ihis week when negotiations resume today in Washington, D.C, If so, a last-gasp efforl to voice displeasure with the contract to United Mine Workers International President W. A. (Tony) Boyle may have been made Saturday when a spokesman for rank-and-file miners of District 4, 5 and 6 was unable to make telephone contact with Mr. Boyle.

The telephoning attempt was the culmination of a four-hour open meeting held Saturday In Masonlown which more than 500 striking miners attended. The hopeful conversation was lo convey to Mr, Boyle that the rank-and-file is nol satisfied wilh Ihe proposed contract and does not desire to work under it, The spokesman also was to request permission for a meeting of rank-and-flle represenla- livcs wilh the UMW President in Washington to hear their dis- Ihat the contract, already signed by three mtdweslern coal operators, be withdrawn and a new one be renegotialed thai would fulfill the rank-and-file's wishes. All the intentions died, though, as Mr, Boyle was nowhere to be found in Washington. And so die mine strike enters its second week and the miners are no happier now than they were a week ago. And Ihey apparently don't intend lo become happy until Ihey gel some- pleasures before the contract lining more than the contract they fear will be "forced down was made final.

They, at that time, would ask our throats." UNIONTOWN Visiting hours 3 p.m. until 8 p.m. Children Under 12 Not Permitted Admissions: Donna JoComito, Unionlown; Helen M. Grimm, Uniontown; Edgar D. Franks Uniontown; Elizabeth A.
