Unions Reject Six Month Shipyard Contract Extension Offer
Seven unions at the American Ship Building Co vow to continue strike after rejecting a six month extension to the expired contract. They cite demands to delete 25 percent of job classifications, raise production, and alter the entire contract structure. About 4,200 workers nationwide, including 600 in Lorain, are on strike with orderly picketing at three yards. The company will cover August Blue Cross Blue Shield premiums for striking hourly workers and families.
