HARVESTER Ctpnltfct W7i CbMsUattd Oau Carp* Mtm Y«k ^ AUTO HARDWARE STRIKE HITS G. M. Detroit Ternstedt Plants Close Over Piecework and Pay Changes. By the Associated Press. DETROIT, June 9.—The first Com mittee for Industrial Organization strike in the Ternstedt Manufacturing Co. gave General Motors Corp. another labor problem today. Two of the 11 Ternstedt plants here were closed by a sit-down which began late yesterday. The company, which manufactures automobile hardware for the parent corporation, has approxi mately 12,000 employes altogether. How many of these were affected by the strike was not known. Reports were that about 3.500 workers on afternoon shifts sat down, causing complete suspension of operations in the two plants. Walter Reuther, president of the West Side Local of the United Automo bile Workers of America, C. I. O. affil iate which has an agreement with General Motors, said the strike was a protest against delay in eliminating the piecework system and making wage adjustments. Another automotive plant, the Budd Wheel Co., also was closed by a strike. About 1.500 of its 2.600 workers walked out yesterday. The firm supplies sev eral automobile producers with wheels. The strike, said Loren Houser, U. A. W. A. organizer, was due to fail ure of negotiations with the manage ment to result in abolition of piece work and provision of a bonus for evening workers. , The two strikes were the only spec tacular activity along Detroit's turbu lent auto-labor front, but interest still was focused on a grand Jury investi gation of the Ford riots two weeks ago today and agitation for a rent strike in Detroit. Three mounted policemen of suburb an Dearborn, where union members distributing leaflets to workers were beaten at the gates of the Ford Motor : Co.'s Rouge plant, were expected to I be the day's first witnesses before , Common Pleas Judge Re'ph W Lidy, ' sitting as a one-man grand jury. The officers were said to have wit nessed the disorder. U. A. W. A. leaders and others i addressing a mass meeting last night I advocated that a "united front" of I 200.000 Detroit tenants be formed to call a "rent strike.” Mort J. Furay. heading a committee formed by the U. A. W. A., proposed a two-year moratorium in rent in creases and said “the big banks and trust companies” have doubled and trebled rents in the last year.” He said he opposed a rent strike until "a united front" has been formed.
