officials adjourned, "the strike
continues with no change in sta

Both GIN and JAW spokesmer
said, however, that another nego

day.
Harry. w. Andersen, GIN vice
president, said in a prepared state
ment, the offer to the auto work
ers was made on a 10 per cent
basis subject to a final adjustment
after detailed analysis"
Reuther, commenting on the com.

alton still refuses to discuss arith-
metic% and the fact that ability
to pay should be factor in wage
discussions.

is a 80 per cent increase without
increase in prices"
