Core Makers Strike At Moline Plow Co For Higher Wages
Workers at the Moline Plow Co walk out seeking raises from 135 to 175 for the lowest grade and 185 for better class. The company rejects arbitration and stands by wage proposals while asserting the strike is unjustified. Local meetings and public statements follow as both sides argue over fair pay and labor arbitration.
