Packers Defy Union Amid Nationwide Wage Strife
The Associated Press reports managers in meat packing and electrical appliance sectors resisted wage demands as May Day protests spread. Packers reopened plants and offered the proposed 9 cent per hour increase, while CIO unions prepare new strike actions in Chicago stockyards and across industries. A 75,000 UAW strike against Chrysler is planned for May 12, and federal mediators push to avert a broader railroad walkout set for May 11.
