Berfield loses 19 year job over union stance
Sinnamahoning electronics worker LaRue I Berfield age 38 refused to join the United Electrical Radio and Machine Workers of America and was ousted after a 19 year tenure. The UE’s comeback at Sylvania Emporium plant led to a contract mandating closed shop by June 16. Berfield, sworn to state and federal oaths as a school director and civil defense worker, says he cannot join and remains jobless. Senator James Eastland laments the lack of relief under current law.
