Western Electric Phone Installers Go Out on Strike
Portland U.R) Some 700
telephone installer in Oregon,
Washington and Idaho walked
off the job today following a
stalemate in negotiations for a
new contract with Western Elec
tric company in New York.
D. G. Ward, president of the
North Pacific local of the Com
munication Workers of Amer
ica, said "there will be no West
ern Electric installers working
today in this local, 9290."
Ward said that pickets were
not sent out immediately but
that they might be before the
day is over "depending upon
how things shape up." He called
it a walkout "in protest of a
stalemate in bargaining."
A spokesman for the Pacific
Telephone and Telegraph com
pany said it was unlikely that
telephone service would be af
fected. "The problem would be
whether or not other communi
cations workers would honor
the picket lines and stay out," a
spokesman said. PT&T said it
was "in no way involved" in
the dispute.
The installers install head of
fice and switchboard equipment.
Negotiations for a new con
tract were continuing in New
York.
Ward said there were about
158 workers in Oregon, with 100
in Portland and others in Salem,
Eugene, Roseburg, Medford,
Bend and Klamath Falls.
According to local Pacific
Telephone and Telegraph offi
cials here no trouble in tele
phone service in the Rogue val
ley is anticipated. The local
service will not be affected due
