Threat of General
Strike Hangs over
MexicaIi Business
Three Big Labor Unions
Band Together to Ask
For Increased Wages

MEXICALI, May 2S.-
Merchants of this border city
marked time" today as they
awaited developments f o =
ing threat of a general
strike by leaders of three strong
Mexican labor unions reported to
be seeking wage increases for thous-
ands of workers throughout the
district.
Business men said, however, that
no formal demands have as yet been
presented to them and indicated
that nothing would be done until
such demands had been received.
INFORMAL DISCUSSIONS
Some union leaders have infor-
mally discussed the wage situation
with merchants but no agreement
has been reached and workers are
uncertain what their ultimate de-
mands will be.
Some employees have voiced be-
lief that wages should be doubled
in the face of greatly increased liv-
ing costs. 1t has been pointed out
in union meetings that foodstuffs
especially have advanced greatly in
price. Much of the increase has been
brought about by heavy purchasing
by residents of the United States
who have been faced with a short
age of many food items.
ALL AFFECTED
AS most workers in MeXicali affili-
ate with one of the three unions,
the GROIN, COCM and CTM, a
majority of establishments would be
affected by general strike.
Some merchants said a meeting
of business men would be called if
a formal wage increase demand is
presented to them.

How Sweet
After all this hullabaloo over
whether to wear bathing suits or
not to wear bathing suits in the
Eks popularity contest, Fred Nebel-
Thau came forward with a dilly of
a suggestion.
I'm game" he said, ito dress up
in an old fashioned bathing suit
and be a bathing beauty of the Gay
NinetieS. If l could get someone to
compete with me, I'll bet Ell Cen
trans would buy bonds to keep us
out of sight"
What wouldn't we give for a look
at Fred in one of those antique
affairs.
The Real Thing
Ell CentranS will get touch of
the real thing when planes fly over
the city June and drop II bombs
containing the incidents in the
city-wide civilian defense test that
night.
AS far as we are concerned, we
hope we never get any better idea
OF what a bombing is like. This is
one time that ignorance really is
bliss
