Ford Accord Believed
Near With Negotiators
Only 2Cenfs Apart
Increase of 17Iz Cents
Offered by Company;
6. M. Still DeudIocked
By the Associated Press.

DETROIT, Jan. 16. After
SlaShing their original wage de-
mand nearly in two, the CIO
United Auto Workers were be-
lleved nearer a settlement with
the Ford Motor Co. today, but
their deadlock with strikebound
General Motors Corp. remained
unbroken.
The Ford Co. revealed it had Of
fered the union a 1715 centS-an-
hour pay increase last Friday, but
union negotiators turned it down
and countered yesterday with the
1919 cents-an-ho figure recon-
mended by the Presidential Fact
finding Board in the GIN dispute.
The latest Ford offer and the
unions recession from it's 80 per cent
demand-or about SO cents an hour
on Ford rates-left the two parties
only cents an hour apart, but
another difference tended to leaven
the optimism.
Wants Increase Now.
Eve are getting closer together
in the bargaining" r. j. Thomas,
UAW-cIO president, said, but he
contensAd the 100000 Ford workers
should sget their increase now"
His comment was in reference to
Ford's statement that its offer sis,
of course, contingent on a workable
agreement between the union and
comany" on woAker productivity and
other factors.
Ford's only previous offer of a Is
cents-an-h increase, promptly re-
jected by the union, would have be-
come effective only when production
reached the rate of 10000 units
monthly. A union spokesman said
that offer, made December 18, had
"too many jokers in it,
John S. Bugas, Ford director of
industrial relations, said the 171a-
cent offer would have boosted the
average hourly wage from $1.21 to
$1.38ka. He termed it particularly
significant in view of the fact that
Ford is already paying an average
OF y centS an nour more imam 1tS
largest competitor"
Follow Fact-Finders.
In proposing the 2-cent higher
figure, Mr.. Bugas said, union Off
cials asserted they were following
the pattern set by the report of the
fact-f1nding board in the General
Motors case"
AS far as the GIN case is con-
cerned, however, the fact-finding
boards recommendations apparently
were having little effect. The union
apparently waiting for some action
on its request that President Tru-
man urge GIN to reconsider its re-
| lection of the report, has made no
recent move to schedule another
bargaining session.
In a statement issued from the
White House yesterday, the Presi-
dent said he hoped the corporation
would accept the recommendation
but GIN officials said they would
have absolutely no comment" on his
statement.
GIN officials again stated they are

Federal Aid 10 States
AssaiIed by Tuck in
Inaugural Address
. New Governor Offers
Program to Improve
Services in Virginia
By the Associated Press.


RICHMOND, Va, Jan. 10
Gov. William M. Tuck vigorously
attacked Federal aid to States in
his inaugural address today in
telling Virginians they should
be, and he believed they were,
willing to finance higher stand
ards in education, public health,
agriculture and other fields
through State and local taxa
ton.
Taking the oath of Office on the
South Portico of the historic Vir-
ginia Capitol, the new Governor
said he was speaking today to the
people and would offer his legisla-
tive recommendations to the Gen.
eral Assembly in a message next
Monday.
Gov. Tuck followed Attorney
General A. P. Staples and 1t. Gov.
L. Preston Collins, receiving the
oath from Chief Justice Preston w.
Campbell of the State Supreme
Court of Appeals.
Mr.. Staples was sworn in by JUS
tice Herbert B. Gregory. Mr.. Col
Inns received the oath from Justice
c. Vernon Spratley.
In appropriating war-inf1ated rev.
enues to raising school standards
through expenditures of a recurring
nature, Gov. Tuck said Virginia
would eventually have to increase
State ana perhaps local taxes tc
continue the higher standards. The
same would be true in other activi-
ties. he said, although he predicted
that higher taxes would not be nee.
essary for two years.
Prefer State Financing.
Il am confident that such com.
mitment meets with the peoples
hearty approval, and that they will
gladly finance their own schools" he
said. Il am also confident that they
prefer these schools to be financed
through State and local revenues
rather than through the medium oil

Iran 10 Make Appeal
To UN0 Immediately
On Azerbaijan Issue
Council to Get First Test
OF Power After 1t Sturts
Operation Tomorrow

By the Associated Press.
LONDON, Jan. 16.-Nasrullah
Entezam, Iran delegate to the
United Nations Assembly. said
today his country planned to
appeal Immediately to the new
world Security Council to re-
solve it's dispute with Russia and
prevent the movement of fur
ther Red Army reinfercements
into Iran.
The delegate, former Iran Foreign
Minister, said the issue would be
taken to the Security Council as
soon as it is in operation.
The 11-nation council of which
Russia is one of the five powers with
veto capable of preventing action
on any issue. is scheduled to hold
its first meeting tomorrow, and the
appeal threatened to confront the
new peace organization with the
first test Of its powers.
| The controversy springs from the
Russian occupation of Azerbaijan,
northwestern province of Iran,
where government has been set
up with self-proclaimed autonomous
powers.
Seyed Hassan Taquizadeh, Iranian
Ambassador to London, said he had
received new instructions from Te-
heran last night after his speech be-
fore the General Assembly, in which
he declared the issue would not be
placed before the UNO at present.
Difficulty for Vishinsky.
Exactly what approach will be
made has not yet been worked out,
Entezam said. Cases may be taken
to the Security Council by direct
petition or through the secretary
general of the UNO-who has not
yet been selected.
The Iranian developments over
shadowed all other UNO activities
and confronted Andrei Vishinsky
Soviet Vice CommisSar of Foreign
Affairs and chief Russian delegate
with difficult situation to tackle on
his expected arrival tomorrow.
EnteZam said the Iranian gov
ernment would build much of its
case against Russia on chapter /
article 2, paragraph 4 of the United
Nations Charter which declares:
"All members (of the United Ma
tions shall refrain in their inter-
national relations from the threat
or use of force against the territorial
Integrity or political independence
of any State, or in any other man
ner inconsistent with the purposes
of the United Nations"
Entezam said, in explaining Trans
position to newsmen, that his gov
ernment had been prevented by
Russia from moving troops through
out its own territory. He said this
impaired Trans political independ-
ence and territorial integrity.
