14,000 Return To
Work In Ontario
WINDSOR, Ont. — (UP)—The
strike of 14,009 automobUe work-
ers at the Ford M6tor plants in
Windsor Ontario, has resumed
today after a two-day respite.
The head of the striking CIO
United Automobile Workers
Union says the strike was re-
sumed because, "the Canadian
Wartime Labor Relations Board
changed our agreement without
authority.”
The union chief, Rov England,
calls this, "the most shameful
double-cross in the history of
Canadian labor."
The original strike was over
a disagreement on grievance
procedure. Union leaders claim
the men went bark to work with
the understanding that the griev-
ance procedure had been settled.
Whereas on the contrary, they
cluing the procedure was at va-
riance with what had been
agreed on.
In Chester, Pa., a walkout at
th<‘ Sun Shipyards has spread
to 2.100 workers The company
produces tankers and cargo ves-
sels. Union officials say the
walkout is unauthorized.
A strike of approximately
1,100 workers at the Breeze Cor-
poration plants in the Newark,
N. .1., area, ended today. The
strikers agreed unanimously
last night to return to work. The
j walkout began over a company
, announcement that it would up-,
(peal a lathor Hoard order to in-
; crease wages. The plants make
; airplane parts.
