"W- are now near the top . it) wanes for the lead and zinc, industry," Hyan added. The new two-year contract alls for a $1.05 across the hoard wage increase which ' ikes the miners rate from $4.13 to 5.40 an hour. The union also received air i'h mise in shift differential ;i,iy.

The one bedroom apart ments are , presently scheduled to rent for $145 per month plus utilities while the two bedroom units will go for $175 per month. - Frank Richards of Home Benefit Savings and Loan in Salt Lake City is the prime mover behind the complex and has termed it "as at-! at-! tractive as anything in Park City."
