$4,000 Out Of Work
In ChrysIer Strike
BY the Associated Press

DETROIT, Jan. 28.-The Chrys-
Ter strike pushed its effects deeper
into the automobile industry to-
day and had more than 114,00o
workers idle.
OF these, $4,000 are the CLIO
United Auto Workers strikers who
walked out of Chrysler Corp
plants Wednesday to enforce pen
sion or wage demands.
The rest, numbering more than
$4,000. have been thrown out OF
work by shutdowns of Chrysler
supplier plants in Michigan and
other States.
The week end began without
any definite moves on the part of
Federal and State mediators to
bring the warning union and COM
pany back to negotiations.
1t had been reported that they
were aiming to get peace talks
started by Monday.
The JAW says it will hold out
for 10 cents an hour put into a
$1ac monthly pension and insur-
arce trust fund, or else the same
amount of money in a straight
wage boost.
In Michigan, the State Unem-
9loyment Compensation Commits
sion is preparing to pay weekly
benefits to thousands idled indi-
rectly by the Chrysler shutdown.
Strikers are not eligible for pay
ment.

Mrs. Lenroot Drops
Parking Fine Appeal

Mrs. Eleonore Lenroot's charge
in Municipal Court earlier this
week of special privilege" in the
District ends the matter as far
as she is concerned, she said last
night.
Mrs. Lenroot, widow of Judge
Irvine L. Lenroot of the United
States Court of Customs and
Patent Appeals, said she had
dropped plans to appeal a So fine
for overparking in the block in
which Commissioner John Rus
sell Young's home is located.
In traffic court Tuesday, Mrs.
Lenroot charged that the 1900
block of Jefferson place NV,
where she received the ticket, re-
ceives more police protection than
any other block in the city. She
attributed this to the fact that "a
very important person" lives in
that block.
Mrs. Lenroot said she had re-
considered her decision to ap-
peal, on advice of counsel. She
said she did not wish to take up
her attorneys time unnecessarily.
In a prepared statement, she
said her complaint of unequal en-
forcement in the District had
been given fair and complete
coverage by the press. She en-
phasized that she still believes
she was innocent of the charge.
