STRIKES PREDICTED IN. U.S.
(Rec. 7 p.m.) NEW YORK, July 19. Mr R. J. Thomas, president of the Congress of Industrial Organisations, and the United Automobile Workers’ Union, said that Allied victory over Japan would signal him to start authorising strikes. “There will be a lot of them,” he said. “We will authorise strikes in every plant where the present grievance continues to exist.” He added that the chief reason for the strikes would be the fact that the automobile industry employers simply have not accepted the union.
