Fund Freeze Sought Suit Seeks Ouster Of AIL Officers
A class action filed in Butler County Common Pleas Court seeks to remove Aeronca Independent Union officers and bar transfers of union funds to the UAW-CIO. Clara Augspurger, a union member and Aeronca employee, leads the suit alleging officers oppose the AIU and actions aim to undermine the independent bargaining agent. The petition requests new elections and restraint on delivering records or property to the UAW-CIO, citing NLRB concerns and non Communist affidavits. More than 500 members are implied as similarly affected.

Aeronca employees protest what they call selling down the river by officers of the AIU. A committee among workers urges a vote for no union and seeks to disband the AIU, planning a new independent group if UAW rights are not won.
