£AYf 1 rLVILtE fBEE L 'Inside' For Duration Strikers stand guard at gates going into the Jameavttle quarry. Pickets are at all the plant entrances, but inside James- ville quarry management per sonnel keep up essential production \as usual\ despite the strike by United Steelworker8 Union Local 12457, against Allied Chemical Corp., owners of the quarry that supplies essential limestone for the chemical processing at Solvay. Thirty five staff members have been within the James- ville boundaries since the strike started June 13. They work 12 hours a day seven days a week. \Going hom<\ after work means a return to the living quarters set up at the quarry, a dip in the swimming pool or a few hours watching television. Phone calls to friends and family are a daily essential. All those working at James- ville during the strike are local people, according to James Blizzard, quarry manager, and are drawn from both the salaried and hourly wage per sonnel. Since the strike began, food and supply trucks have gone in and out of the plant, but other traffic has halted.

Visitors would be able to participate in farm life and if they wish, camp nearby. Although the total project has a three year completion date, Mr. Barber said much of the operation could begin immediately on the farm already operated by Mr. Barber'* family. Pompey Planning Board members, who considered the plan last week, have sent a positive recommendation to the town's Zoning Board of Appeals. \The board thinks the proposed development will be an asset to Pompey,\ said planning board member May Hermann. The project, named Pdttrpey Heritage Farms, will probably be on the July agenda for the ZBA. \We intend to operate an old farm exactly as it was done around the turn of the cen tury,\ said Mr. Barber. We want to keep both the village and farm as nearly authentic as possible.\ However, to con form to state health standards, there will be such modern What A July 25 will be the night for, public hearings\ in the town of Manlius.

The meals, Mr. Blizzard said, have been \quite good.\ During the strike, the huge crusher has been shut down, and the quarry is not serving the \regular customers\ of that operation. However, freight trains are still running in and outof Jamesville, head ing towa^|ftarmain plant in Solvay. t25 While James ville is operat- ^ ing with only local employees, the situation in Solvay is con- siderably different. There, the local staff is augmented by pr Allied employees drawn from throughout the nationwide corporate network. Vice presidents, as well as secretaries, arrived before they_j strike started, to keep theLp chemical manufacturing on aSj* continuous basis. For those in-o* side the Solvay plant there are also additional amenities such as a swimming pool, television, and personal ser vices such as laundry and hair styling.
