Number Affected Undetermined
Auto statisticians said today it
was impossible to accurately deter.
mine the number of men affected
along the line, either by direct
layoff or curtailment of work.
Developments among the war
ring forces remained at stand
still in the mid-forenoon. Homer
Martin, head of the auto workers
union, said there would be no i'm
mediate reply to a statement by
Alfred P. Sloan. head Of G. M,
who demanded:
"WiIl a labor organization run
the plants of General Motors or
will the management continue to
do SOP"
That, he said, was the real
issue" in the company's dispute
with the United Automobile Work
ers' Union, which has called the
strikes which forced closing Of IA
Of the company's SO plants.
More than 10000 men now are
out Of work because of the labor
struggle, and the number, G.. M.
feared, may grow to $4,000 yet
this week.
Statement to Plants
Sloan's statement, posted on bul.
letin boards in all G. M. plants
this morning, came as Homer Mar
tin, president Of the U. A. W., made
public new letter to Sloan in
which the union reiterated request
for q national collective bargain
ing conference and outlined the
unions other demands.
Meantime, according to dis
patches received here, a strike was
called by the night shift at Toledo
Chevrolet. The plant there en-
ploys 1000 workers.

Frank Murphy, Michigan's gov

Congress MajOrities
Loom AS UnWieldy

lunWieldy Democratic majorities
in both houses will tend to break
up iSto blocs.
Experience has shown that when
the blocS get to scratching each
others backs and trading among
themselves it creates havoc with
any well-ordered legislative pro
gram $a n
They know from bitter exper-
ience that unless the majority
have a common rallying point
against the opposition, the major
ity get to quarrelling among them
selves. The 1872 Democrats in the
House started off with a bitter
row over the leadership, which
has left some deep scars.
Many Wide Riffs
Already there are evidences Of
wide cleavage in Democratic ranks
over particular phases of the New
Deal-whether neutrality legisla-
tion should be of the mandatory
or discretionary kind; whether
some of the enormous emergency
powers voted to the President and
about to expire should be extended
now that the emergency is over;
whether appropriations for relief
should continue on the grand
scale Of other years.
There are many schools of
thought in the Democratic ma
jority on such things as social
security, agriculture, governmental
reorganization, labor legislation,
Federal housing, banking legisla-
ton, public works, ct cetera.
Leaders Uneasy
The leaders are going to be hard
put to reconcile so many divergent
opinions on highly important poll
Cies. Debate will be long-and
probably acrimonious - for the
leaders have promised that after
the neutrality legisla tion is
speeded through to meet the emer-
gency abroad, ample time is 60
ing to be given for everyone to
speak his piece about things. The
days of jamning bills through
without half the membership hav.
ing read them are gone.
Nominally, Mr.. Roosevelt is
more securely in control of this
Seventy-fifth Congress than of
either its New Deal predecessors.
His prestige, on the basis of the
mandate given in the November
election, is tremendous. But
actually, the leaders are uneasy
at the prospect Of keeping those
tremendous majorities in line.

erans because they didn't have
much opportunity to crate in the

Lead With President
The only program worthy of the
name will be that of President
Roosevelt himself. It will be re.
vealed piece-meal during coming
weeks, starting with tomorrow,
when Mr. Roosevelt presents his
annual message on the state Of
the nation.
It will offer an optimistic sur.
vey of the country's recovery from
the depression. and emphasize that
the command is Forward with
the New Deal"
On Friday. Mr.. Roosevelt will
submit his long-awaited budget,
over which he has sWeated for
many days. The Governments
income and its outgo still do not
balance-but the country will be
offered the prospect of an early
balance, provided that business
continues on the upgrade and dis
plays a capacity to absorb into
private industry the millions that
still crowd the relief rolls.
Like the annual message, the
budget message will be pitched in
an optimistic key.

According to report from the
