The most, recent layoffs came as the Chevrolet manu facturing plant in Flint where General . Motors sent home 2,400 hourly-rated employees because of material shortages caused by the nation-wide steel strike. Another 4,100 workers will be laid off Wednesday at the same plant. Production Slowed ' To date the layoffs have been confined to General Mo tors' supplier plants. None of the assembly lines turning out I960 -models -ha? been halted although the production pace has been slowed to conserve steel supplies in some cases. i GM's parts plants were the first to be hit by the short ages because it laid in a small er supply of steel in anticipa tion of the walkout and be cause its parts plants were operating six weeks ahead of the final assembly lines. Chrysler and Ford were operating their parts plants only about two weeks ahead of final assembly and Ameri can Motors and Studebaker Packard were operating even closer to the belt. Supplies Dwindling Chrysler said it could con tinue production with current supplies "into November." Ford said its supplies would last at least until Nov. 15.
