Why North American Aviation Has Not Yielded to Union Demands
The UAW-CIO strike against North American Aviation plants in California and Ohio aims to raise costs for F-86 Sabre production amid defense budget cuts. North American claims offers raise wages and benefits, adds 14 million dollars yearly in costs, and argues the union push would hinder national defense and job security. The company announces gates open for workers to return and vows legal steps to protect returning employees.
