Losses in Trucking Strike Near One Billion Dollars
The nationwide trucking strike, involving Teamsters Locals 705 and 710 and the independent Chicago Truck Drivers Union, has cost Chicago about 900 million dollars since April 9. About 15 000 small firm trucks keep delivering essentials while 35 000 large rigs idle. The dispute, linked to wage demands, prompted federal intervention from Secretary of Labor George P. Shultz and a mediator, with layoffs reaching 170 000 and payroll losses of 7 million daily. Some drivers have crossed into taxi work or joined signatory firms as the strike lingers.
