Tear Gas Used to
Scatter Pickets
Niagara Falls, N.Y., Sept. 29
(UP) Sheriff deputies used tear
gas today to disperse a club
wielding group of strikers at
tempting to storm buses and au
tomobiles carrying workers into
the strike-bound Bell Aircraft
plant.
The strikers, members of
local 501, CIO United - Auto,
Workers, were grouped outside
the plant's main gate when a
calvacade of approximately 200
automobiles and a few busies
drove up, escorted by sheriff's
deputies.
As the calvacade approached,
the strikers rushed forward
brandishing sticks. But they were
stopped short when deputies and
plant guards tossed tear gas
bombs into their midst.
A strong north wind drove the
gas among the strikers and they
scattered into fields, pursued by
deputies. At least 12 were
taken into custody.
The brief disorder it lasted
about 10 minutes completely
disrupted picketing activities
and the calvalcade of workers
was able to proceed slowly into
the plant.
Many women were among the
strikers. Some wore helmets
and were armed with clubs.
Twelve "manned the picket line
with three men prior to the out
break. It was the third straight
day that women had manned the
picket lines.
Tension mounted in the 16-week-old
strike after the com
pany flatly refused to resume
collective bargaining as request
