qMC Agrees 10 Pay
$20,880,000 Bonus
In Lieu Of Vacations
Auto Workers Announce
Temporary Agreement
Covering 100000
Bys the Associated Press.

BY: the Associated Press.
DETROIT, June 24-Walter P.
Reuther, international vice presi-
dent of the United Automobile
Workers, CIO, announced yesterday
that the union and General Motors
Corp. had reached an interim agree
ment providing for the payment
within the next few weeks of a
total vacation bonus of approxi-
niately s20,88O,OO to the corpora
tions 100000 factory workers.
Under the temporary agreement,
Mr.. Reuther said, the bonus in lieu
of vacation will be paid on the
basis of 40 hours pay, or an aver
age $4G-40 to 100000 workers with
one years seniority, and 80 hours
payo an average $92.80 to approx
mately 100000 workers with five
years or more seniority.
Unsettled vacation demands of
the-union, Mr.. Reuther said, include
payment of bonuses on a basis of
4S hours a week instead of 40; lib
eralization of eligibility rules so
workers with six months seniority
also may qualify for bonuses and
payments of bonuses to General
Motors workers now in the armed
services. These demands, Mr.. Reu-
ther said. will 60 to the War Labor
Board for decision.
General Motors Corp. last night
explained that for this year the
corporation was extending to all
hourly-rated employees the same
vacation plan that was in effect in
1912.
The effect of this plan" the
statement continued, will be to pay
each hourly-rated employe having
one years seniority and less than
five years 40 hours pay and 80
hours pay to all employees having
five years or more service"
Noting that the demands of the
UAW-C1O for increased vacation
pay have been certified to the WLB,
the company's statement added:
To avoid delay in making vaca-
ton payments to employees, General
Motors has proposed that payments
be made at this time on the 1912
schedule and if the board orders
additional payments, adjustments
will be made at that time"

Free Beer for Labor
In Heavy Industry
Urged by Physician
BY the Associated pres.

By the Associated Press.
CLEVELAND, June 24.-Free
beer and pretzels for foundry
workers as means of reducing
absenteeism in the industry was
advocated today by DR.. William
P. Edmunds, Cleveland area
director of the War Manpower
Commission.
Explaining he spoke as a
physician, DR.. Edmunds de-
!, clared every foundry and smelt-
ing works should provide en-
+ ployes with a mug of beer and
pretzels at midmorning and
midafternoon to relieve fatigue,
offset perspiration and raise
morale.
The VINO director said he
believed this was one of the
things that foundry manage
ment could do to make work in
its plants more attractive in
view of the difficulty in obtain
ing a rise in wage levels.

For instance, the other day he

was just coddling the troops and
would ruin discipline.
I told him the actual facts had
already been established by a
study the Government made.
