16 Out Of 35 Picketing At Market Sixteen union members em- ployed by the S. S. Kresge Com- pany's K-Mart store just west of the city, went on strike this morning to back up demands for a first contract. Only 16 of the 35 members of the K-Mart unit, Local 414 Retail, Wholesale and Depart- ment Store Workers Union pick- eted the store. The other mem- bers and non-union employees crossed the line and went to work, said Roy Higson, repre- sentative of the local, Of those who crossed the picket line, Mr. Higson said: "They have been brainwashed by the company." TRUCKS STOP He said about 10 trucks carry- ing goods destined for the store refused to cross the picket line. The unit is seeking the sup- port of other unions in Oshawa, said the union representative, "we may get some mass pick- eting out here", Mr. Higson said the union may distribute leaflets in the city today to outline the union's stand. The union was certified by the Ontario Labor Relations Board last September as bar- gaining agent for the K-Mart employees. Wages, union security and welfare benefits are the major items in dispute. Albert MacCarl, manager of the Dominion Store located in the same plaza as the K-Mart store, said his employees of his store, also members of Local 414, now are in the process of ratifying a new two-year con- ; | tract. He said picketing of the K- Mart store "does not seem to be having too much effect on| the Dominion Store." | 'Open House' At Ont. Hospital In observation of Mental| Health Week, May 1 to 7, the!
