WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 14, 1981 Polish unions threaten two-hour warning strike (tljc iUontgomcrj SUUKriuicr w9 mi ii uuniiuTi ptw 3n jmm fey I -fh (j' iy' v.f rut wy yyv 1 WARSAW, Poland (AP) Independent labor leaders in Rzeszow, beside the Soviet border, vowed Tuesday to hold a two-hour warning strike if the government doesn't open negotiations on their demands within 24 hours. A spokesman for Poland's biggest independent trade union, Solidarity, said selected factories would be shut down from noon to 2 p.m. Wednesday unless negotiators arrived to talk to some 300 protesters. He said the protesters have been occupying a former government trade union building for two weeks to support a list of 69 demands including government recognition of an independent farmers' union. In Przemysl, also on the Soviet border, workers at some 120 firms staged a one-hour warning strike Tuesday in support of the protesters.

Solidarity leaders met at the union's national headquarters in Gdansk Tuesday night but issued no statement on the Rzeszow action. Lech Walesa, the head of the union, said before leaving for Rome that a two-hour strike seemed reasonable, "but I hope they make sure their watches don't jam." Communist Party leader Stanislaw Kania and Premier Jozef Pinkowskl met with Marshal Viktor Kulikov, the Soviet supreme commander of the Warsaw Pact forces, the official news agency PAP reported. Poland's defense minister, Gen. Wojciech Jaruzelski, and senior officers joined in the meeting, it said, but gave no details. The official Soviet news agency Tass also reported the meeting without comment.

There were reports last month of increased military activity along Poland's borders by its Warsaw Pact allies, sparking fears in the West that the Soviets might intervene to halt the labor unrest. A union spokesman in Rzescow said the local would ask for a general strike in the area if police tried to break up the sit-in. "The whole responsibility lies with the government which so far has never responded if not forced by a strike," he said. In the past two days, police broke up similar sit-ins in the nearby towns of Ustrzyki Dolne and Nowy Sacz, where farmers and workers were demanding government registration for their independent union. In all incidents the protesters left the govern ment buildings quietly.

The evictions indicated the government's patience with labor protests, was wearing thin. They were the first, use of force against workers since the regime signed labor agreements last summer ending months of widespread strikes that crippled the economy. The agreements created the first independent trade unions in communist Poland and the Soviet bloc, but did not end labor unrest. Part of the settlement, the unions contend, was an agreement to give all workers every Saturday off. The government, arguing that such an arrangement would further damage Poland's troubled economy, wants to give workers half of all Saturdays off.

Last Saturday, 2.9 million workers failed to show up for work as scheduled, according to PAP. Another 7.4 million workers reported for work and about 1.6 million took the day off with the understanding they would work on Saturday, Jan. 31, the news agency reported. PAP quoted officials of the Communist Party Politburo as thanking all those those who did report to work. Poland's Supreme Court held hear- yy y': A Walesa and wife, Danuta, arrive in Rome ings Dec.

Private farmers produce about 75 percent of Poland's food. Polish television carried a brief report on Walesa's arrival in Rome, the 37-year-old labor leader's first visit to the West.

"I think that the K-cars have been selling well and Chrysler may survive," Mrs. Collier said, "but the chief reason for our decision is to keep our employees working.

"There are 400 employees working in this one plant who are producing wiring assemblies for General Motors, Ford and Chrysler. If we stopped filling the Chrysler orders, that total about $6 million a year, we would have to lay off 100 or 150 of them," she said. Mrs. Collier testified on behalf of Chrysler before the federal Loan Guarantee Board about a year ago when the company was awarded government-guaranteed loans to keep afloat. Mrs.

Collier said she has met with executives of Ford Motor Co. and scolded them for buying parts from foreign suppliers rather than American manufacturers to support jobs Chrysler seem to be the minimal necessary to accomplish the task, and that is one issue that needs to be addressed." Tom Miner, Chrysler's vice president for industrial relations, said the company had not responded to the UAW's counter-proposal to Chrysler's original request for a wage feeze. Miner did not say why. A company source said Fraser's proposal amounted to "substantially less than half" of what the automaker needs, and the company had expected the union to make another move. Half of the company's request would be $337 million.

She said National Industries has $2 million in current contracts to make electronic car radio antennae, mostly for Ford and General Motors, but some for Chrysler. This production division of National Industries, which employs about 65 line workers, was taken over in October.
