Conciliator Arrives As Striking Workers Expand Action
Four developments mark the Asheboro hosiery and furniture strike as about 6 000 workers idle across 30 plants. A High Point Overall Company plant joined the strike with 550 workers refusing to work, while a mass meeting was planned with Industrial Workers Association leaders. Federal conciliator E H Dunnigan began talks, and all strike committees planned a late evening meeting to map future actions. Bradley urged calm as some workers expected plants to reopen Monday. The penny note at the end remarks on copper content of the five cent piece.
