Detroit Ternstedt Plants | Close Over Piecework and Pay Changes. By the Assoclated Press. DETROIT, June 9.—The first Com- mittee for Industrial Organization strike in the Ternstedt Manufacturing Co. gave General Motors Corp. another labor problem today. ‘Two of the 11 Ternstedt plants here were closed by a sit-down which began late yesterday. The company, which manufactures automobile hardware for the parent corporation, has approxi= mately 12,000 employes altogether, How many of these were affected by the strike was not known. Reports were that about 3,500 workers on afternoon shifts sat down, causing complete suspension of operations in the two plants. Walter Reuther, president of the West Side Local of the United Automo- bile Workers of America, C. I. O. affil- jate which has an agreement with General Motors, said the strike was a protest against delay in eliminating | the piecework system and making | wage adjustments. Another automotive plant, the Budd | Wheel Co., also was closed by a strike About 1,500 of its 2,600 workers walked out yesterday. The firm supplies se: eral automobile producers with wheels. The strike, said Loren Houser, U. A. W. A organizer, was due to fail- ure of negotiations with the manage- ment to result in abolition of piece~ work and provision of a bonus for evening workers, , The two strikes were the only spec- tacular activity along Detroit’s turbu- lent auto-labor front, but interest still was focused on a grand jury investi- gation of the Ford riots two weeks ago today and agitation for a rent strike in Detroit. Three mounted policemen of suburb- an Dearborn, where union members | distributing leaflets to workers were | beaten at the gates of the Ford Motor | i Co.'s Rouge plant, were expected to! | be the day's first witnesses hefore sitting as a one-man grand jury.
