ORONO WEEKLY TIMES, THURSDAY, JANUARY 25th, 1968 Set Feb. 20,SrkeDt Rubber workers' union leaders fear a wildcat strike may bit the Bowmanville's Goodyear convey' or belting plant at any time. Factory workers took -a strike vote Sunday and left their offic- ers in no doubt that unless nego- tiations on new contracts start to move faster they will take action. 've been told by the member- ship that if things don't, start fo progress they're going to take things into their own hIands," said the president of Local 189 JACK REALTOR 99 King St., E.

"I told them quite frankly that it wou.d not be sanctioned by the union and 1 would have no part of it," he said. Mr. Hooper described the strike vote meeting, attended by the Locai's 385 members, as "1very militant." 'When they say they are going to do something, they do it."1 The meeting, in the Florence Nightingale Centennial_ Hall, set -, strike date for Feb. 20, the day the present three-year series of contracts mun out. A' total wildcat would paralyze the factory. Conciliation Officer Mr. Hooper said the men would strike as soon as was legal, and announced the appointment of H. B. Howell of the. Department of Labor as conciliation officer in an attempt to settle the dispute. "We're pushing for the strike dead-line because of manage- ment's attitude. We sat for five hours the other day and didn't accomplish one thing." he said. The' present average basic wage is $2.54 an hour. Mr. Hooper said the union was protesting five of the present contracts and there had been no area of agreement on any of them so far. The contracts in dispute are: the collective labor agreement; the health and if e insurance a- greement; the supplemental un- employment benefit agreement and the severence award agree- ment. The union will also look for an annual contract - if and when the negotiations reach that stage. At present contracts run for three years. The managment would make no comment.
