Br l nitecl Pre«» About 900 CIO United Auto Workers remained on strike at '.he Terre Haute plant of the Allis - Chalmers Manufacturing Co., today, but employes at four other company plants •were instructed to return to work pending mediation of the dispute. Frank Eartee, international representative o fthe union at Terre Haute, said the strike would continue until local issues were settled. He said employes at the Springfield. 111., plant also would remain on strike in a local

dispute.

A UAW vice president, Leonard Woodcock, said the union would support the authorized strikes at Terre Haute and

Springfield.

The Terre Haute strikes were among about 19.000 Hoosier workers currently idled by walkouts around the state. In addition, there was & possibility that another 500 workers might strike at Evansville's Hoosier Cardinal plant, following a breakdown of negotiations. A j strike was set for Aug. 31.

i - | A verbal dispute erupted in Mr. and Mrs. Donald Cox and • the Allis-Chalmers strike a L ! children will leave tomorrow for j Terre Haute late Wednesday

when the company charged some of its officials were denied access to the plant by pickets. A union spokesman said office and supervisory personnel would be permitted to enter if they showed identification. The commanp replied that an identification requirement is “illegal picketing" and constitutes “unlawful

seizure of the plant.”

In the tense Perfect Circle Coip. strike, a charge of “unfair labor practices” against the company was taken under advisement by the National Labor Relations Board office at Indi-

anapolis.

William Caldwell, international representative for the striking UAW, said the piston ring manufacturing firm used unfa r methods in seeking decertification of the union as bargaining agent for employes at Ricn-

mond.

Caldwell said management «iidcd the move for decertification by allowing union opponents to use company time and property in preparing petitions to oust the union. A lengthy dispute against the Morgan Packing Co. at Austin was settled with the signing of a five year contract that brings 1,000 workers under the AFL Teamsters jurisdiction. Paul W. Priddy, union president. said the agreement calls for a five cent hourly wage increase the first of the year and another 13 cents over the next four years, five paid holidays, seniority and a pnion shop clause
