Injunction Delays Wage Hike Confirmation at Aeronca
A federal injunction against Aeronca Union leaders may stall approval of a 17 cent per hour wage raise for Elliott Levey. The order, issued by Judge Fred B. Cramer, targets Don De Frates and Ronald Brown, delaying contract execution despite a two year fringe-inclusive package announced June 26. Grievance procedures at Plant 1 are unlikely to be affected as neither official sits on the union grievance committee.
