Uranium Processors End Strike

Employees at a government-owned uranium-processing plant returned to work today for the first time since a 10-week strike halted production of a material critical to nuclear weapons.

About 400 workers were asked to report at 8 a.m. after union members voted by a 3-1 ratio Saturday to approve a partial contract settlement with the Westinghouse Materials Co. of Ohio, which operates the plant 18 miles north of Cincinnati. Workers were taken by bus to a movie theater to attend seminars to teach them how to handle, among other things, leaks of low-level radioactive materials.
