Tah-Hariey Disputes,
Heat WaIkoufs' Still
Slow Auto Production
sy the Associated Pres.

DETROIT, Aug. 1.-THE auto
industry, troubled by disputes over
the Taft Hartley law and ''heat
walkouts," continued below-normal
production today.
While Federal conciliators worked
to end the three-week walkout oi
1000 CIO employees of the Murray
Corp. of America, 10000 Stude-
baker Corp. workers remained idle
because Of a shortage Of parts from
that firm, and production at Ford
Motor Co. plants also was curtailed
by a lack of Murray supplies.
The three-man Federal concilia-
ton panel that called representa-
tives of Murray and the CIO United
Auto Workers into session yesterday
in an effort to settle the strike,
found that new issues had been
added to the unions demand for
protection against certain provi-
sions Of the new labor law.
Emil Marcy, UAW-CIO co-direc-
tor, said the union also was asking
straight 15-cent hourly wage boost
instead Of liz cents and six paid
holidays, elimination Of what he
called wage inequities, and pro-
vision permitting the union to re-
quest discharge Of an employe for
conduct unbecoming a union men,
Der, although he paid dues regu-
larly. The company, which has
charged the union with insisting on
a blanket promise not to sue under
the Taft Hartley law, had no COM
ment on the new demands.
Another dispute involving the
labor law affected the Gemmer
Manufacturing Co., here, where
1900 UAW-CIO employees walked
out yesterday after union officers
reported the firm refused for two
weeks to negotiate new contract,
pleading 1t did not know how the
law applied to certain provisions. :.
Walkouts blamed on mid-90 tenn
peratures yesterday made idle $4,000
Chrysler workers. 5000 at Hudson
plants and 600 at Ford.
The Ford concern had completed
recall of $1,000 employees laid of
last week because of the shortage of
Murray parts. However, officials
said production would not be up to
normal until the Murray plants
start making parts again.

MAY GIVES MORE
 TESTIMONY, TRIAL
 OVER WAR FRAUD

WASHINGTON, May 22.-tR- Ex- x-Congressman Andrew J. May testified today he tried to speed action on a wartime army com- mission for New York investment banker, after he had been in formed that Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt was one of the bankers sponsors.
 The former House Military Committee chairman told a federal jury that the banker, Harvey L. Schwam, was introduced to him at the Washington hotel by muni- tions maker Murray Carson. The latter and his brother, Henry Carson, are on trial with May on war fraud charges.
 He also told the jury that a de- sire to see justice done" had prompted him to appeal to Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower to intervene in wartime court marital proceed ings against Capt. Joseph Carson, son of Murray Carson. He said he twice wrote in 1945 to Eisen- hover, then Supreme Allied Con- mander in Europe, to urge him to review the case.

Five Big Unions to Bargain Out Demands Forestdl-

WASHINGTON, May 22.-tR- Five big unions prepared today to bargain out their demands on the railroads under procedures which will delay any strike shutdown for perhaps six months.
 A. F. Whitney, President of the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen, told reporters:
 l. The railroad labor organiza- tions feel they have legal right to call "quickie" strike any time after Sunday-but do not plan to do anything of the sort.
 2. He believes his union and four others allied with it will agree to start from scratch" under the time consuming Railway Labor Act in their negotiations for changes in A working rules.
 3. He thinks this should result in "a settlement or breakdown of negotiations by Nov. l."
 Whitney's statement at com- bined dinner and new conference last night jibed with the stand of Alvanley Johnston, who said the same thing in Cleveland regarding his Brotherhood of Locomotive En- gineerS.
