Strikers Return To War Plants In Back-to-Work Move
Workers at Chrysler plants return to production as the War Labor Board presses toward a decision on the soft coal dispute. About 30,000 CIO members idle at Firestone and B F Goodrich in Akron while Goodyear and General Tire workers resume shifts after a weekend wage ruling. The Chrysler stoppage ended Sunday by a two to one vote split between CIO and United Automobile Workers. Washington delayed coal-rate decisions to Monday night and prepared panel reports on portal-to-portal pay. The rubber strike followed a wage increase decision by the WLB, with unions arguing living costs rose 23 percent since January 1941. The Chrysler dispute also exposed internal TAW-CIO factional tensions and calls to oust director Lamotte.
