U AW Finding Task
Of Keeping Workers
On Job Difficult
Detroit (UPI) The United
Auto workers found itself
Tuesday serving a strike
threat on Chrysler Corp. at
one plant and urging work
ers to stay on the job at an
other, i
It was all part of the
UAW's increasingly difficult
task of keeping angry work
ers on the job until the union
feels a strike will -be effec
tive.
UAW members started
working without a contract
when pacts with General Mo
tors, Ford and Chrysler ex
pired May 29-June 1. There
has been little trouble ex
cept, at Chrysler, where the
company has made big
changes in the working hours
of union committeemen and
stewards.
Chrysler, like the other
companies during the no-contract
period, has cut the num
ber of hours which stewards
could spend negotiating work
er, grievances on company
time. Chrysler said its re
duction of the grievance ne
gotiating time of stewards
merely puts it sin line with
other companies.
Union Charges
The UAW charged Chrys
ler is trying to weaken the
union. It also charged Chrys
ler is taking advantage of the
no-contract period to increase
work loads.
Tuesday, there was labor
action on three fronts at
Chrysler . plants. A wildcat
walkout of abou,t 400 em
ployees at Dodge truck as
sembly, called in sympathy
for 21 union stewards who
were suspended by the com
pany, shut down the truck
plant, idling 1,400 to 1,800.
The 400 employees who
left their jobs at the noon
break at Dodge Tuesday re
ported for work today as or
dered by UAW Local 140 of
ficers. UAW Plymouth Local 51
got unanimous approval of its
membership to take a strike
vote. No date was set for the
vote and the UAW interna
tional emphasized any strike
action should be held up until
it can be effective.
UAW Chrysler Local 7 held
a mass meeting at the Chrys
ler Division Jefferson ave.
plant to get the workers to
go along with the union's
policy of staying on the job
until the auto companies need
production.
Little Progress
The UAW is holding daily
contract negotiations with all
three auto firms. But there
is no inkling of rapid prog
ress. Informed sources re

Biggest Building Year Sfirts of OSC
Corvallis (UPI) The big
gest building year in the his
tory of Oregon State college
has been launched on the
Corvallis campus, including
two new dormitories,, a dor
mitory cafeteria, and a new
five-story physics - chemistry
building.
College officials said the
buildings should all be fin
ished in time for classes in
the fall of 1959.
OSC, Oregon's largest col
lege, had an enrollment of
7676 this year, nearly 200
more than the previous high
set right after World War II.
hardly possible before July.
By that time, the UAW's
strike power should be grow
ing, with model changeover
work N only a month or so
away.
But some company sources
point out . most auto plants
will close down in late July,
with plenty of 1958 cars on
hand to last until 1959 mod
els cdme out in the fall. These
sources believe the union will
have a hard time launching a
successful strike by workers
who have been laid off for
four weeks or more.
Before contracts expired
the companies had offered
two-year renewals of old con
tracts, including at least 16
cents in hourly pay hikes. The
union insisted a new contract
must include better unem
ployment benefits, pensions
and job transfer protection. -
Enrollment this fll should
reach S400 and is xpected to
pass the 9000 mirk next year.
