The Nation : Strike Hits Chrysler Plant

Chrysler Corp.’s second largest assembly plant, at Fenton, Mo., was shut down after negotiations on a local contract broke down Sunday night, and about 2,800 workers walked off the job. It was the second time since Sept. 12, when the contract with United Auto Workers Local 110 expired, that the plant was closed by strike activity. A 12-day strike connected with a national walkout ended Oct. 27. A union spokesman said that no further talks had been scheduled.
