Answer:
automobile
Explanation:
In July of 1936, there were hundreds of deaths in auto plants in Michigan that were thought to be a result of a heatwave combined with difficult working conditions3. On November 12, 1936, General Motors workers started their sit-down strike, which at the time was legal, gaining control of the Body Plant Number One in Flint. On January 1, 1937, workers controlled a second Plant in Flint. Although the strike was gaining power, some of the General Motors' plants were still running - most notably Chevy Plant Number Four, the largest plant owned by GM. But on February 1, 1937, the striking workers took control of this plant. After 44 days of striking, GM President Alfred P. Sloan announced a $25 million wage increase to workers and recognition of the union.
