Strike May Spread Threatening Topeka Shops
Chief Engineer W B Storey says a broad strike of east coast steel workers could stall progress on the big Santa Fe cheese plant project in Topeka. He notes current operations rely on steel and a general stoppage would hinder erecting the plant, with possible spread to Detroit and Chicago orders. At El Paso a 25 man crew nears completion on fuel tanks for a nearby project, outlining tank specs and assembly details as work continues despite broader labor action.
