CWA Calls Nationwide Telephone Strike Targeting Bell System
The Communications Workers of America scheduled a nationwide strike for April 12 affecting initially 165,000 workers in the Bell System including Western Electric. Union president Joseph A. Beirne warned of likely government involvement to protect defense equipment plants, with automation keeping most phones working but slower service and no guaranteed outage free operation. He noted a wage reopener dispute since March 6 under a contract expiring in 1969 and predicted a strike across all states if no settlement is reached.
