proving the text of the Wal
lace speech.
For his part, the President
in press conference this week
denied that there would be any
change in the foreign policy
which has been followed in
Paris and stated that his ap.
proval was not of the text of the
speech, but merely approval of
Mr.. Wallace's right to make 1t.
Explanation Questioned
Newspaper men and politicians
here question the Presidents ex.
PLANTATION of his approval of the
Wallace speech. This is partic-
ularly true of key Republicans
and reporters for some of the
large city newspapers, also Re.
publican. Nevertheless, the gen.
eral feeling is that the Presi-
dents explanation was weak and
that he is either using the Wal
lace speech to sound out opinion
or that he really did commit a
political blunder which has con-
fused those who were interested
in the governments policy as
expressed by Secretary of State
Byrnes.
Most disquieting of all to the
Democrats and many Republi.
cans was Wallace's statement
that he would make additional
speeches bearing on the nations
foreign policy, a statement which
was verified today when 1t be
came known that he had submit

PIaskon
Progress
Stalled

Progress in the settlement OF
the two weeks old strike of
Plaskon Unit of Local IL, UAW-
CIO was stalled on Monday OF
this week when negotiations be-
tween the union and company
deadlocked over the issues of
wages and continuous operation
of the plant.
Decision to refer the issues
back to the Toledo Labor-Man-
agement- Citizens Committee fol-
lowed the deadlock. The case
which had been previously re-
ferred to the L-M-C was given
back to the parties to the dispute
with the recommendation that
as many issues as possible be
settled with the balance to be
returned to the L-M-C panel.
Proposals advanced by the
company to maintain continuous
operation of their plant using a
swing shift were rejected by the
union. Counter-proposals made
by the union which would per-
NIT continuous operation with
out a swing shift were turned
down by the company.
A meeting between the union
and company before the L-M-C
will probably take place early
next week.
Representing the union during
negotiations were Richard Cos
ser, UAW-CIO Director; Walter
Murphy, International UAW-
CIO representative, r ha r d
Myers, Local IL representative
and members of the executive
shop committee.
