Meyer blamed the dispute on an issue involving sheet metal workers, electricians and his business. He said 10 pf his sheet metal" workers have walked out while Iff others are still on the job. An attorney for the union said some workers were still on the job because Meyer had loaned them money and threatened to call, up the loan. The attorney, Bernard M.
