Striking Postal Workers Fired in New Jersey and California
More than 80 postal workers have been fired in New Jersey as wildcat action spreads to New York and California. In Jersey City and Kearny, about half the morning shift refused to work, while 20 workers at the Jersey City bulk and foreign mail center were fired. In San Francisco, roving pickets planned to defy a judge and back a tentative three year pact with about 10 percent pay raises and 19.5 percent with cost of living.

DA cancels murder trial in Roswell case
Assistant District Attorney Jay F. Rosenthal filed a nolle prosequi in District Court canceling the murder trial of Joe P. Chambers, 18, set to begin Tuesday. New evidence requires depositions and polygraph tests, delaying the case. Chambers faced a Feb. 10 stabbing death of Richard Powell, with defense motions to suppress statements. The judge granted the suppression motion, and prosecutors opted to pause the case while possible refiling is considered.
