The problems surrounding the Yokohama Tire plant in Salem have been well

From losing its biggest customer to suffering through one hundred layoffs,
current workers have enough to worry about.
But now comes word that the company's entire future hinges on the next two

((The 900- or- so factory workers were not invited to a close door meeting
at the Yokohama Tire plant a few weeks ago.
But News- 7 obtained a transcript of the speech by (yah-SOO-oh) Yasuo
Tominaga given to plant managers and supervisors.
It reads... "If Yokohama Tire fails to return to the black ink within 2
years, Yokohama Rubber will be forced from supporting the tire operation."
It continues... "If such a situation comes true, all employees are out of a
job."
So, how far in debt is Yokohama Tire?
Try 100- millions dollars.
That's more than 22- percent of all of the money pumped into the U-S market.
A spokesperson from Yokohama's California offices says that workers need to
ban together to make this 2- year deadline work.
But Tominaga is quoted in the transcript as saying "I am afraid probably
this plan will be short of the target by my business experience."
