Veedersburg, Ind - Some 90 members of Local 710 of the United Brick and Clay Workers Union returned to work here yesterday at the Fountain Foundry Company. William Spears, president of the local said the union struck the plant 23 days ago in a contract dispute. The new contract was agreed to over the weekend, giving the local a 75 cent an hour wage increase over a three-year-period in addition to improved fringe benefits, Spears said.
