ANOTHER STRIKE
 NOT AUTHORIZED
Hundreds of Workers in Wright Corp. Paterson
 Are Not on Jobs

Paterson, N. J., Aug. 31 = IU.P) Hundreds of Wright Aeronautical Corporation workers remained away from their jobs in the companys Fair Lawn plant today, though a Walkout which began last week has not been authorized by their union the Wright Aeronautical Employees Association (Unaffiliated).
 Two thousand walked out origin ally but some returned over the weekend. The company announced tfat all must return to work be- fore negotiations to settle the dis pute can be held.
 The dispute settled around execu- tion of recent contract signed with the union. It provided for re- classification of some workers. The walkout resulted from dissatisfac- tion with delays in executing the re-classificationS and the fact that some workers were re-claSSifled without their knowledge.
 Union officials have warned that the walkout might spread to four other Wright plants in this area, where 10000 are employed. Irwin D. Shapiro, commissioner of the U. s. Cancellation Service, said yesterday that circumstances are very favor able for averting general walk out"
 A company spokesman said about 800 workers remained away from their jobs at the Fair Lawn plant, foundry, when the 8 a. m. shift began today. About TOO reported for work, he said.
 Two hours after the day shift re- ported the company spokesman said the situation was slightly improved, since fewer remained away from work today than were out Saturday. Six departments were in full opera tion and operations were curtailed in four, he said.

Coppeto attempted to establish the defense that none of the complain ants had actually identified his goats as the trespassers.
