Conference TO Act

In an effort to stop migration OF
skilled workers and infationary
pay rises. three government agen-
cies today recommended the freez-
ing Of wages and of employment of
Detroit's 10000 tool and die work
ers pending an imminent labor
management conference.
The conference would be similar
to those held early last year by the
'OPM at which Sidney Hillman,
then co-director, recommended up
grading of workers to higher skills
and equalization of wages between
captive and independent shops.

and War Manpower Commission.
who will attend the conference.
are expected 10 formulate pat
tern for settlement of future dis
putes in other industries.
Major problems confronting
the conferees will be the estab-
lishment of a practicable plan of
hiring tool and die workers and
the elimination of a differential
of approximately Is cents an hour
between sutomotive shops and
higher paying independent shops.
Another perplexity is the
method of submission to the WLB
of wage issues within the industry.
CASES PENDING
Pending before the WLB are the
cases of General Motors Corpora
ton, Ford Motor Company. Chrys-
Ter Corporation and the Automo-
tive Tool and Die Manufacturing
Association. The board has agreed
to make all settlements retro
active to today.
Something has to be done
about this situation" said Ches-
ter A. Calm, executive secretary
of the ATDMA. Wages are
soaring out of control and the
hiring of workers Is becoming
insuluble. l expect some bene-
fits to result from a joint con-
ference"
