"We shall stay below till Christmas dinner if necessary," say 63 miners of Fernhill Colliery, Glamorgan, "who have been striking underground for 135 hours. They pass the time with games, concerts, and mock trials. One miner was brought up ill, and another because his wife was ill. The dispute concerns the wages of a dozen men.
