with the help OF the United States
Foreign Economic Administration.
He predicted at a press confer

trade agreements with the United
States.
Osmena announced that n four
member committee-two each from
the Commonweath and the FEA-
had been created TO speed the flow
OF essential commodities through
private trade channels.
No attempt is being made to put
the Commonwealth in business, he
asserted. II will merely assist pri-

obtaining badly needed foods and
materials from foreign sources.
I'VE believe private trade and

In addition to the series of strikes
and layoffs affecting workers at
Kelsey Hayes, Ford Motor Com
pany. the Hudson Motor Company
and more than GO smaller Detroit
area plants, a strike of 500 oil com
pany employees threatened TO cut
off IS per cent of the eity's gasoline
and motor oil supplies.

ing, but the stage is being set for
a showdown. A big one.
II lengthy strikes break out in
the big auto plants here this coun-
try's reconversion gets a bad bang
on the head.
The CLOS United Automobile
Workers (UAW) is doing the stage
setting. The JAW takes this po-
sition
/. Wartime overtime pay Is end
ed. Workers in peacetlme there
fore will have much less pay to
take home.
2. While the base pay of workers
was held down during the war. liv-
ing costs climbed and haven't drop
ped at all.
8. SO JAW wants a 30 per cent
pay increase for its members to
make up for higher living costs and
smaller peacetime take-home pay.
Yet OPA (Office of Price Admin
istration) wants to keep the price
of new cars down. somewhere
around the price paid for new cars
in 1912.
But JAW says prices still can be
kept down even though automakers
should give UAW workers that 30
per cent increase.
Chief targets of the JAW are the
three big automakers: Ford. Chrys-
Ter, and General Motors, which is
biggest OF the three.
Two big questions hang In the
background:
l. viii the Big Three get together
for joint resistance to the JAW?
They haven't acted together in
peacetime before.
2. If they do get together, what
form will their resistance take?
Would they shut down their
plants with the explanation that
they can't make cars at a profit
and still pay a 30 per cent wage
increase?
Would they try to settle with
JAW for something less than 80
per cent?
OPA-if the fight gets going
will have to decide whether to try
to hold auto prices down rigidly,
as It talks OF doing now, or allow
price increases to compensate for
higher production costs. which
means a big step toward initiation.
