Workers Go on Strike At 2 Caterpillar Plants

Date: 04 November 1991

In an effort to get Caterpillar Inc. to make concessions at the bargaining table, the United Auto Workers announced a strike last night at two Caterpillar factories. The union's workers at Caterpillar's mining equipment factory in Decatur, Ill., and tractor assembly factory in East Peoria, Ill., did not report for work at midnight. The Decatur factory employs 2,000 U.A.W. members, and the East Peoria plant 400. There are 16,000 U.A.W. members at seven Caterpillar plants in the United States. Caterpillar has refused to accept the union's demand that it sign the same agreement accepted recently by Deere & Company, a manufacturer of farm equipment and other heavy equipment. At a news conference last night, Bill Casstevens, the union's secretary-treasurer, said the union wanted to persuade the company to "abandon attempts at takeaways" but to limit the impact of a broader strike. Caterpillar last night asked for a Federal mediator's help.

"We have irresponsibly managed the capital we gained after the putsch," Mr. Gorbachev said at a meeting of the republic-dominated State Council, according to the independent news agency Interfax. "The people believed in us, but we have not yet justified their hopes."

By Stuart Elliott

Stuart Elliott

"Some people could be cynical about it; some people are cynical about the news media and reporters, too," said Joe S. Epley in a telephone interview last week from Phoenix as he prepared for his society's 44th national conference, which began yesterday.
