Ford Plants in Canada
To Reopen as Workers
Vote 10 End Strike
BY the Associated Press.


WINDSOR, Ontario, May Ii
Four plants of the Ford Motor Co.
of Canada were being prepared here
today for resumption of war produc-
ton after vote in which only so
of $4,000 striking employees opposed
a back-to-work movement.
Company officials predicted, how
ever, that some production workers
may net be called back I'll! Monday
because of the long shutdown. About
1000 employees in two feeder plants
made idle by the second strike since
April 20, also were to resume work
Needing the pleas of local and
international union officials, the
employees accepted the recommend
alton of the Bargaining Commit
tee of the CIO United Automobile
Workers, which declared that on
the basis of a ruling by the Cana
clan National Wartime Labor Re-
lations Board there was valid COL
lective agreement and that the
grievance procedure will be clari-
fed in Ottawa"
Hearing Set for Today.
The NWLRB also ruled that it
would take no action on grievance
procedure, the main issue, "as long
as the strike continues contrary to-
the wartime labor relations regula-
tionS." Justice G. B. O'Connor.
board chairman, scheduled hear
ing for today when informed of the
strikers decision.
Richard T. Frankensteen, UAW-
CIO vice president who flew here
from union Executive Board meet
ing in Minneapolis, insisted that
the stoppage be terminated, but told
the employees that company inter-
estS are trying to smash the union
because they haven't anything to
lose"
"You face hostile management,

but don't let them play your cards

Union Turns Down Proposal.
The dispute over grievance pro-
cedure was responsible for the first
walkout April 20 and the second
stoppage May 2, after work had
been resumed for two days. The
brief resumption was brought about
when the NWLRB set down a griev-
ance procedure, but the union con-
tended it was identical with one
proposed by the company and
ordered the employees to remain out.
Assured that the issue would be
discussed today at Ottawa, union
officials extended hand of friend

workers were prepared to make up
for the lost time by the two strikes.

his attitude toward his party will be during the coming cam
pagn.
All this is most praseworthy, but it is, to say the least, be-
wildering to some of us humber editors in the hinterland. We
can remember a time last winter when the Tribune was con-
siderably cooler toward Wendell Willkie. That was when he
visited Great Falls. By a close search of the Tribune editions
in advance of the visit of this worldwide celebrity, it was barely
possible to learn that Willkie was coming to the Montana me-
tropolis. This was principally because of advertising space pur-
chased by Republicans. In its early edition, the day of his ar
rival, the Tribune had nothing to say.
Willkie spoke before a large and enthusiastic gathering of
Montana Republicans, as well as to the general public, outin-
ing his policies and beliefs. The Tribune coverage of these talks,
perhaps influenced by the paper shortage, was highly COM
pressed to the point where some Wilkie statements hardly were
recognizable. He rated little more space than some strictly
Montana poitcos who visit the city.
But a sudden reversal of policy was noted when it became
clear that Willkie no longer was a candidate. 1t was then that
the Tribune columns frequently mentioned the author of Zone
World" There were more than broad hints that some sinister
interests had sold him down the river, although all the polls
showed that Thomas E. Dewey was leading in public appeal as
a G. Q. P. candidate. There are two explanations we can think
OF. Either the Tribune has abandoned its old time Democratic
religion and is promoting a third party, or perhaps it is only dis
playing a paternal interest in the unregenerate Republicans of
this section.

PLANNERS LOOK TO RURAL AREAS

AS various groups investigate and discuss what has been
loosely called postwar planning, several facts become more and
more evident.
One is this: postwar planning" is a misnomer. This planning
must be a continuous process not aimed at any particular period
of time but having as its goal uniform and perpetual advance
of the community.
Second and more important: National leaders who are study
ing the subject are coming more and more to the realization
that, to assure a period of prosperity, production and full en-
ploymenta after the war, we must look to the small towns and
farms.
Not long ago we heard a national authority speak on the
subject. He quoted very few statistics, but those that he did
quote had a point. Forty percent of all goods produced in
America, he said, are purchased by farmers. And 46 percent of
our workers are employed by little business" those businesses
with less than 100 workers.
We must have consumer demand to insure full production
and a high national income. We have hopes for a great export
trade as supplier of the world in China, Russia, the Orient.
But these are only hopes. We know that, here at home, many a
farmer and his wife are making plans to modernize with pur-
chases for farm buildings and the home, to be equipped with
efficient machinery and implements.
Marketwise, then, we have the best possibilities right here
at home for sustaining urban production once the last war order
is filled. The farmer needs only assurance that his expanded
production of foods for war will find stable markets and a
stable price when war ends.
The farm should and will be a major factor in solving our
problems of peace, just as it has been one in sustaining the war.

WHY CARS ARE STOLEN

IIom D.. CaVery IN VaIerlanD
From everywhere We read about the theft of automobiles, but it is
brought close to home when the sherffS office reports that in all the
car thefts in Pondera county recently the owners of the cars had left the
keys in the car to make it easy.
While professional car thieves can arrange the wires to drive off with
out a key, few if any of the thefts in this county have been by profess
sionas and the inconvenience of being without ones car while the officers
are locating it, let alone the damage that may be done it, could be
avoided if the owners would take the keys out no matter whether the
car is parked down town, at the home curb or overnight OF the farm.

Loom as Gas Gets Weaker

you're going to md 1t tougher to
start your car on the cold morn
inss Just ahead than you did last
winter.
In the first place. the gasoline you
get these days Isn't what 1t used to
be. Besides, your automobile. after
being nursed through three war
years, isn't as chipper as 1t once
was. As q result, you may have to
revert to the old "fiivver" days when
It took q kettle Of boiling water to

Octane Rating Lower.
The kind Of high test gasoline you
buy today has about the same oc-
tame rating as the old regular"
gasoline used to have before the
war. The only trouble is, you can't
get very much premium gasoline
Today's regular" gas has an octane
rating about five points below what
It was In prewar days, which ac-
counts for = lot Of the spluttering
you hear In your engine.
Several months ago, Army and
Navy authorities began to fear that
the stockpile Of terra ethyl lead. the
component which raises the octane
rating Of gasoline, was getting too
low. Theyswanted to build up the
stockpile 20 that the production OF
l00-octane gasoline could be in
creased any time the military STU

per cent cutback In the manuf acture
Of premium gasoline last June Al.
Because 50 many motorists had
switched over to the use Of high
test gasoline by that time. the cut
back actually brought production Of
premium gasoline about to its pre-
war levels.
Around the same time, the octane

rating Of high-test gasoline was
reduced from between 1850 to the

step In the conservation program
was to cut the octane rating Of
