South Bend Mud Fight Triggers National Labor Strike Threat
In Baltimore and Syracuse many workers reported to their jobs as the walkout began over wages. A boggy pasture near South Bend Indiana where division workers built a television tower sparked the impasse when mud issues blocked passage. One hundred four local members struck in support. The union warns of a national strike unless Western Electric reverses its back to work order. Mediators failed to settle the dispute while the non picketing pledge kept a wider tie up at bay. Henry Mayer, the division's counsel, urged bargaining to continue but blamed company stubbornness for the crisis. This item continues on the tenth page.
