10000 Auto Workers
Idle in Three Disputes
By the Associated Press

DETROIT, June 17.-Three sepa-
rate labor disputes made more than
10000 automobile workers idle to-
day as a strike vote proceeded
among 10000 Ford Motor Co. en-
ployes.
The latest dispute involved the
disciplinary layoff of an employe
accused by officials of the Chysler
Corp. with carelessness in the han
ding of materials at the De Soto
wyoming plant.
Fellow members of the CIO Unit
ed Automobile Workers at the plant,
1850 strong, left their jobs yester-
day in protest.
A materials shortage, partially at
tributed by the company to the De
Soto tieup, forced about 5000 other
workers from, their jobs at the cor
porations Jefferson and Kercheval
plants.
A disciplinary dispute kept 1900
other UAW-CIO workers idle at the
Continental Motor Corp.
In the De Soto strike, union and
company spokesmen pointed the
finger of responsibility at each other.
Robert w. Conder, Chrysler labor
relations director, contended bar
gaining procedure had been ignored
while union spokesman described
the actual disciplinary layoff as "a
minor part of the whole thing"
Meanwhile, UAW-CIO production
workers at the Ford Rouge plant
began balloting on the question of
backing up with strike action the
unions current contract negotia-
tions.
The action conceded with re-
sumption of assembly lines, down a
week after the company accused
production employees of a sympa-
thetic showdown in favor of $500
striking foremen.
The foremen, members of the In
depenent Foremen's Association OF
America. have been idle four weeks
in a dispute over bargaining rights.

By .hs Associated Press

NEW YORK, June 1.-THE stock
market presented tired appearance
today and price changes either way
was negligible.
A mild retreat at the opening
was succeeded by slow improve
ment. ledby some steels and motors,
which succeeded In reducing de-
clines or translating them into adj
vances. This took place, however.
in the slowest trading in about a
week. Near the fourth hour plus
and minus signs were well scattered.
While general expectation OF some
corrective move in the wake of re-
cent climbs was reported by COM
mission houses, selling pressure
proved relatively light. The thin
market in several issues accentuated
shifts in trends. Uncertain pros
poets regarding strike possibilities
restricted enthusiasm.
Better performers included Chrys-
Ter, General Motors, Youngstown

Northeast Still Split
On H Street Bus Plan,
PUG Rehearing Shows

Residents and business interests
In the Northeast section still are spill
IN the n street NE. bus-streetcar
controversy.
At q Public Utilities Commission
rehearing today OF the Capital
Transit Co.'S request to substitute
buses for streetcars over the Ross
Iyn-Benning carline east OF FIJI
teenth street NV. found the Fed
Grafton OF Businessmen's Associa-
tions and It's Northeast subsidiary
still strongly opposed to discon-
tinuing the streetcars.
Residents OF the far northeast
section. however, still are strongly
in favor of the proposed change
over to buses.
The transit firm introduced add-
tional evidence, based on postcard
survey and interviews with transit
riders on the Rosslyn- Benning
route, In an effort to persuade the
PUG to reverse its March 5 decision
preventing the change.
Company Aide Cites Figures.
John B. Ecker, the transit COM
pany's director of research, told the
commission that analysis of the In
terviews shows that buses would be
better because 29.9 per cent OF the
inbound rush hour riders want to &c
to points south OF Pennsylvania ave-
nue, 34.9 per cent to the main down.
town business section and $50 per
cent to points north Of the down.
town area.
The transit company contends
that buses could split off to the
north and south and cover these
three main destination areas quicker
and more conveniently than the car
line now does. At present, all riders
must pass through the Fifteenth
street and New York avenue traffic
bottleneck.
The hearing found Benjamin
Striner, chairman of the Public
Utilities Committee Of the Fedora
ton Of Businessmen's Associations
Lloyd w. Chisholm, president OF
the Northeast Businessmen's Asso-
citation, and Andrew Gemeny, exec
utive board member and past presi-
dent of the Northeast business
group. against the change.
Fear Depreciation Of Property.
The businessmen fear that bus
lines would bypass their investment
in H street NE. property and de-
preciate its value.
Louis Burman, builder: O. w. Nc
Donald of the Northeast Council
of Civic Associations, the Rev. T. T.
Roberts, pastor of the Minnesota
Avenue Christian Church, and
Isaiah F. Jordon of the Deanwood
Civic Association urged the COM
to consider the convenience
of far Northeast residents in get
ting to work. They could do better
by bus, they said.
George E. Keneipp, District traf-
fic director, said that If the PUG
decides to reverse It's stand and
allow the change to buses, Benning
road NE. should be widened from
26 to 36 feet on each side to create
additional traffic lanes.
