invited to Washington next
week TO discuss their differences
under government auspices, it
was learned today that the
.UAW-CIO may broaden its
siege to include about IT'S tool
and die companies now working
on GM contracts.
The intent of this newest
offensive is To halt work on tools
and dies for current and future
GM models - machinery which
might otherwise be completed for
the company while the wage
dispute is preventing production
of automobiles.
Union leaders debated the strait
egg for several hours before re-
ceiving GINS barbed refusal to
arbitrate the JAW demands be-
cause the proposed conditions
would have compelled General
Motors to relinquish- its rights
to manage its business"
This was not an offer Of
arbitration. but a demand for
abdication," declared the COM
pany in the statement signed by
II. w. Anderson, vice president
in charge of personnel.
THOMAS NOT SURPRISED
THE reply Is exactly what We
expected" commented r. ].

CIO. who accepted the request
TO talk peace terms next week
in Washington.
The invitation to the command
ers of this gigantic industrial war
10 meet at a peace table was
agreed upon last night by Presi-
dent Truman and Secretary of
Labor Louis B. Schwellenbach.
The official suggestion, how.
ever, will be signed by Edgar l..
Warren, head of the labor depart.
ments conciliation service, be-
cause Warren will preside at the
head of the table.
"Are you optimistic about an
early settlement ?" Schwellen-
bach was asked.
NON-CoMMITTAL
81 think 1t Is too early 10
know" he answered.
Schwellenbach declined TO COM
ment on whether arbitration IN
still possible.
After two-hour conference at
the White House. the secretary OF
labor commented that President
Truman is "rightfully concerned
about this work stoppage."
The Washington discussions. II
agreed 10 by GM, will start
wednesday or soon thereafter.

275 pupils enrolled this year, as
compared with $50 the opening day

imately Is are in the high school

arrive was responsible for the de-
lay in opening, Mr., Wagner said.
) The Union schools normally de-
lay one week to permit pupils to
help in the canning factory at Mil
ford Center and should have start
ed last Monday. However, the new
buses purchased by the Board of
Education last spring in change
over from privately owned to
School-operated buses didn't arrive
on time.
1--WE are still having to double
up on one bus" Supt. Wagner said,
"but expect the third one to be in
this week, and then everything will
be in order"
There are two new teachers in
the schools this year. One is in the
music department which will be in
charge of Mrs. Berthelle Foster, of
Plain City. A former music teach
er in Union county, Mrs. Foster
has had considerable experience.
She is a graduate of Ohio State
The other new teacher is Miss
Evelyn Vaught, of near Gallipolis,
who will teach in the third and
fourth grades. She is a graduate
of Rio Grande college.
In addition to these changes, Mr..
Wagner said, the school will bene-
fit from an increased vocational
agriculture program. This training
will be on a halliday basis this
year, instead of only one-fourth
day as it was last term.
