Navy To Return 11 Sinclair Oil Plants To Private Control
The Navy plans to relinquish control Monday night of 11 Sinclair Oil plants seized Oct 5 as part of the CIO oil strike. The 8,400 Sinclair employees will get an 18 percent wage raise for a 40 hour week. The new contract bans strikes and lockouts.
