Telephone Strike Delayed by Union Leaders Amid Seizure Fears
The National Federation of Telephone Workers postpones a nationwide 250000 strike for 30 days and orders 30 day strike notices to comply with the Smith Connally act. Officials warn seizure may be ordered and note the walkout could affect radio, news printers, and leased lines. In GM talks, 175000 CIO auto workers accept a 17 percent rise from a federal fact finding plan, signaling possible end to the 54 day dispute.
