Spicer Vote
Fovors Strike
Job Preference Is
Source Of Dispute


Notice of intent to strike was
filed on Monday with the
NLRB by the Spicer Unit OF
Local IL, UAW-CIO following
taking of strike vote on Sat
urday of last week.
Frank Rostetter, chairman OF
Spicer Unit stated that the
strike was approved by 81 per
cent of the Unit voting by Sc
cret ballot.
The issue which broug h t
about the strike vote arose in
Dept. 81 of the Spicer Division
of the Dana Mfg. Co., plant over
job preference. The company
and union have negotiated the
issue for many weeks with the
management recently admitting
that job preference could pre-
vail and work successfully, but
that they wished to tie it in
with wage cuts for approximate
ly 100 employees of the depart
Iment.
The unions position in the
controversy was that job pre-
ference is an agreed clause in
the current contract between
the union and company and that
all other departments exercise
the privilege.
The strike vote was taken in
accord with the International
UAW-CIO constitutional provi-
sions and will require a so day
cooling off, period under the
Taft Hartley law before the
strike may be called.

Gosser Urges
Resolutions

Richard Gosser, UAW direc-
tor in a meeting with Local IL
officers and regional represen-
tatives on Tuesday night urged
all to advise their units and
Local unions to send postcards
and letters to the convention re-
solutions committee in Atlantic
City to bring out resolutions on
a pension plan and improved
social security laws. Gosser' S
statement follows:
"While all the attention and
publicity has been given to who
is going to be elected by the
UAW convention, it seems to me
that there are other important
considerations which should
come before the resolutions
committee and the delegates.
81 hope that. every unit and
Local in Region 2-B will send
post cards and letters to the re-
solutions committee in Atlantic
City urging them to give con-
sideration to ways and means of
bring about legislation broaden
ing the social security law and
a pension plan which would give
the workers a break after they
give years of their lives to their
industry.
