Steel Truck Strike Over Cars Rolling Again
Steel haulers return to the highways after a nine week strike as 10 000 to 20 000 drivers accept a settlement. The agreement includes $10 an hour after four hours loading, a 5 percent rate increase, and a committee to represent haulers before the Teamsters.
