(AP) -Eleven workers remained chained to a pillar in the General Electric plant today, protesting the company's plan for what they termed an April Fool's Day shutdown. GE intends to move most of the plant's operations to the South after April 1. Nearly a score of the workers linked themselves together a chain Friday and rolled out a banner from fourth floor windows, proclaiming "We want the right to work." They said they would remain chained in the building until ejected forcibly. A group of them left during the night, however. The reason for the departure was not explained; Turns Sleeping Those who stayed in the plant played cards and took turns sleeping on a pile of felt pads in a corner.

The thin chain was wrappec around their wrists or bodies. It had no locks. The demonstrators used the chain also to hoist food up from the street. They would lower carton and have it filled with sandwiches and coffee by their wives and fellow members of Lo cal 442, International Union Electrical Workers. Charles Ziegler, president of the local and leader of the demon strators, said the action was taken to show that "The average Amer ican takes seriously his right to work." Hits Company Policy "General Electric spends the stockholders' money to go around the country advocating right-to- work laws that discriminate against the workers," Ziegler said.

"We would like to know the meaning of 'right to GE officials said they will not interfere if the men decide to sit out the weekend. "If this is their way of getting it out of their systems, well fine," said Henry Pierce, director of em- ploye relations. "We see no point in trying to put them out."
