Two Week Auto Strike Seen Against Ford in Uncertain Talks
DETROIT AP United Auto Workers plan for at least a two week strike against Ford Motor Co as bargaining stalls with talks unlikely to resume until Monday. UAW leader Leonard Woodcock said he is not hopeful the nationwide walkout by 170 000 workers will end soon. Sources say the strike began just before midnight Tuesday and could last into October, with analysts predicting no more than four weeks. Woodcock said Ford has been unmoving on major issues and sent the bargaining committee home. Unresolved disputes include 12 additional paid days off yearly and wage and cost of living formula changes. Ford offered up to five extra days with limits and a 3 percent wage hike to raise base pay to about 7.48 by 1979.
