$4,000 Auto Workers
lin ENGLAND 10 Strike
BY the Associated Press

LONDON, Mar. 12.-Representa
tives of six engineering unions de-
cided today to call a strike of ap-
proximately $4,000 workers in more
than 80 motor and mechanical
plants in Coventry in support of
their demands that the Humber
Automobile Co. pay more for piece
work and rehire $50 dismissed men.
About 1000 Humber employees al
ready were on strike which a
company statement said was "un-
official from the outset"
Sir William Rootes, chairman of
the Humber board, said the $50 men
fired were made unnecessary by "a
go-slow movement which cut pro-
duction to less than 10 per cent of
what it should have been"
A dozen representatives of the
1000 sitdown strikers in the Ford
factory were appointed to call on
members of Parliament for help in
settling a minor wage dispute and
in preventing the company from 60
ing through with its announced
decision to close the plant March 16.
The Ministry of Labor has taken
no action in the Ford case or in that
OF the Austin Co. at Birmingham,
where 1000 strikers were joined to-
day by another 1000 of the en-
ployes.
The Austin strike spread to the
assembly lines.
