Columbus Plant Strike Will
Idle Many County Residents
All Workers Out
At Westinghouse

Many Madison County workers
were staying home again, or going
out on picket duty as the Westing-
house Electric Corporation went
into their second strike recently
over wage negotiations. The previ-
GUS strike was called at the Coluln-
bus plant on September IL.
News reports indicate that again
all 80 of the Westinghouse plants
across the nation have been struck,
an action by the CLIO. Interna-
tional Union of Electrical Workers
which ties up some 44,000 workers
throughout the U.S.A. There are
$500 workers at the Phillip Road
plant in Columbus, where residents
OF this locality are employed.
The strike began Sunday at mid
night. Talks on wage negotiations
repeatedly broke down about 2 am.
Monday with both sides deadlock
ed. Token picketing was reported
on Monday at the plant, but union
officials were quoted as saying that
mass picketing would begin Tues
day morning at approximately $50
am. when the first shift of work.
ers ordinarily goes on.
The main dispute is said to be
over a demand by the union for a
wage increase nationwide and for
an agreement over time studies of
workers operations. The opening
of wage discussions and a strike in
the event no agreement was reach
ed by midnight Sunday, is reported
as provided for in the present con-
tract, which expires next year.

Maps Are Received

On Monday, the Madison Coun-
ty Commissioners received the 10
cation maps of Ohio Turnpike Pro-
ject No. 2, the north-south high
way proposed to be built in the
near future, running through Mad
ison County.
The location map shows the
highway will enter Madison Coun-
ty east of Plain City, passing
southeast of the cemetery; cross
ing u. S. AZ just south of the Kill
bury-Huber Road. 1t crosses Route

intersection of routes % and 38.
It then proceeds due southwest,
crossing State Route So just
south of the junction of Route 187,
down to the Old Columbus Road,
then due south across U S. 40 at
the Markley Hill, then west out of
Madison County and into Clark,
parallel with u. S. 40. There
would be a traffic interchange at
the US. 40 crossing.
Many Madison County farmers
will feel the impact of progress as
the super highway crosses their
farms and lands.
County Commissioner George
Taylor said that the Ohio Turn
pike Commission has the right of
eminent domain in their necessary
acquisition of strip of land one
mile in width across the county.
Mr. Taylor also stated that the
new road would not affect any of
the new bridges in the county, and
that grade crossings would be con-
structed on all existing county
highways by the turnpike commits
sion. The commission authority
is contained in Section 5537 of the
Revised Ohio Code.
