A message from Cleveland states that 10,000 workers in the Fisher Automobile Body Company, which supplies many bodies to General Motors, struck there and at the St. Louis plant to-day, demanding that the employers recognise their union and grant a substantial increase m pav. The strikers claim to have almost completely stopped production, but the plant manager says it is not seriously handicapped.
