UAW MEMBERS RATIFY GM CONTRACT

Union members approved a new contract Monday for 2,300 workers at a General Motors Corp. pickup truck assembly plant.

The vote came a day after United Auto Workers Local 2166 ended a six-day walkout at the plant, which builds Chevrolet and GMC compact pickups. The strike was partly prompted by GM's effort to boost productivity by speeding up the assembly line.

GM said most workers would return on today.
