Widely different reactions

Two schools Of thought ex-
pressed themselves In Washing

the pact foreshadowed Far East

to American British policy in
the Orient and the other specu-

Building Union
Strike Continues

The strike of the Detroit Build
inc and Construction Ira d g s
Council (AF'L) against Greater
Michigan Homes, Inc. 10401 West
McNichols road, which resulted in
the breakdown of negotiations be-
tween the council and the Detroit
Builders Association, continued to-
day.
Officials of the association,
which represents the majority of
builders in the Detroit area, stated
that they would refuse TO nego-
tate with the council until the
strike is called off.
Ed Thai, president of the coun-
Gil, said that the union is asking
closed shop and that if it en-
counters any difficulty, it may be
forced TO call strike against all
small home builders.
Parleys between the association
and the building trades council had
been in progress for the past two
months.
