No Compromise Ends 15 Day Strike At C A Olsen Co
The C A Olsen Manufacturing Company hourly workers at its Elyria Westinghouse unit returned to work at 7 a.m. after a 15 day strike by about 250 Independent Furnace Workers Union members. The union declared an unconditional return, disputing a Chronicle Telegram report of a compromise. The company warned no concessions were given and noted wages lost exceed 530,000. A National Labor Relations Board election dispute remains unresolved involving UAW and IFW. Background traces to wage and economic demand talks under a 1955 contract and a U S Supreme Court ruling cited by the union.
