Long UAW Strike Could Hurt Allen
A potential extended UAW strike at Chrysler plants could threaten layoffs at Allen Industries in Herrin. Victor Reback, manager of di trevor, notes about half of Allen’s output serves Chrysler while the rest goes to Ford and American Motors. Chrysler sales are up 30 percent, supporting steady employment at Allen, which totals about 930 workers split between Automotive and other divisions. Reback estimates a strike lasting two to seven days would have limited impact as the plant shifts to 1963 model production.
