Picket lines halted all work while trades refused to cross them pending a settlement. The union seeks an 11 cent across the board raise plus 3 cents for fringe benefits health and welfare. Leonard Perry of the Washtenaw Contractors Association said a two year offer included 5 cents retroactive to May 1 and 5 cents next November with identical raises next year. Business Agent Lloyd Clickner called the offer unacceptable. Dozens backed Clickner and insisted on the full 11 cent demand.
