Detroit Ward Strike
May Spread 10 Other
Cities, Unionist Says
BY the Associated fress.

II BY the Associated fress.
DETROIT, Dec. 9.-Four Detroit
area stores of Montgomery Ward 6s
Co. were affected today, in the midst
of Christmas rush, by an en-
ployes' strike which a union regional
official said possibly would spread
to other cities by, Tuesday.
4 Ray Scoggins, Detroit regional di-
rector for the United Retail, Whole
sale and Department Store Employees
tCIO), said the strike "has the
full authorization of the interna-
tional union," and was the be
ginning of a strike on broader
scale.
Mr.. Scoggins and Lawrence Stein
berg, Ohio regional director, said
the strike was called to protest what
they said was failure of Montgomery
Ward 81 Co. to recognize War Labor
Board directiveS covering union
maintenance of membership, dues
check-off, back pay demands and
arbitration of grievances.
Picket Lines Formed.
Picket lines were established at
two Detroit stores and at branches
in suburban Dearborn and Royal
Oak, employing some 1900 persons.
Company spokesmen withheld
comment on issues OF the strike,
but Reginald w. Rosevear, manager
of the Detroit area stores, said many
clerks remained at work and that
business is going on as usual" He
said the Dearborn store was hardest
hit
Mr.. Scoggins and Mr.. Steinberg
claimed nearly all the employees had
joined the strike.
In Chicago, Leonard Levy, inter-
national executive vice president of
the union, said the strike may hit"
Chicago, and If so would affect the
entire setup, including retail and
mail order operations"
Mr.. Levy said union officials were
in session today and would continue
meeting tomorrow to determine
whether the Chicago house will go
down to inforce compliance of the
WLB directive order"
The directive order, he said. in
volved renewal of the contract which
expired In December, 1943, and
which he said the company has re-
fused to extend.
To Consult With WLB.
Mr.. Levy said he would leave for
Washington tomorrow to consult
with the WLB ION this develop
ment."
Sewell Avery, chairman OF the
company's board Of directors, main
tanned that there is no justifica-
ton for a strike"
There seems to be some confu-
sion," he said, regarding the War
Labor Board orders which have been
determined by the courts to be
purely advisory.
THE thing the company will not
agree to is the closed shop. The
company is trying to preserve the
right of an employe to join or not
join. or to resign from union.
This is a permanent policy"
The firms Chicago mail order
plants were involved in strike
which began April II, 1914, and
which eliminated in Government
operation of the plants from April

turned the properties and the COM
