Resume Efforts To End Walkout Of Meat Workers
Government labor experts resumed efforts to end a walkout of nearly 800,000 CHO and AFL meat workers. The strike, in its third day, has halted almost all meat flow from plants to consumers with only emergency hospital supplies continuing. Industry representatives met with Dr Edwin Bo Witte, head of a new panel, to chart next steps in the wage dispute. Labor Secretary Lewis Bo Sshavellenbach said no agreement was reached in yesterday’s session. The meeting was halted after meatcutters and burhers objected to the National Brotherhood of Packing Home Workers’ presence, which AFL officials said was improper because the union was not on strike.
