Washoe plant engineers and switchmen end strike
After days of disruption at the Washoe Copper plant the engineers and switchmen declared off their strike. President Scallon of Anaconda guaranteed no malice and promised openings for returning workers, while some strikers planned to seek other jobs. The dispute arose over higher pay and two suspensions, but a union later formed and intercession aided a settlement.
