County Workers Back On Jobs In Wisconsin Dispute

Waupaca county highway workers who struck on April 26 over union recognition returned to their posts after an ultimatum from the highway department. At a Wednesday meeting of more than 100 strikers and a department committee, managers warned that replacements would be hired if workers did not resume by Monday. The group then voted to seek a court ruling on union affiliation and whether the highway board must negotiate with the union within the CIO framework. The strike followed rejection of a proposal to empower the committee to deal with the Association of county employees as the union representative. The board said the CIO had expelled the union for alleged Communist domination. No date was set for further action.
