Ford 10 Lay0H $1,000
Today Because Of
Body Paris Shortage
BY the Associated Press

DETROIT, Aug. 6.-About ST.
900 CIO Ford Motor Co. employees,
whose union officers called off a
scheduled strike yesterday, faced
a weeks layoff today because of
a parts shortage.
The Ford Co., announcing all as
sembly operations would be halted
until August IL after today's shift
is completed, said it lacked body
parts from the Murray Corp. of
America.
The Murray plants have been
strike bound almost two weeks by
a dispute similar to the one which
nearly brought on a walkout of
100000 Ford employees - the CIO
United Auto Workers demand for
immunity from lawsuits under the
Taft-Hartley labor law.
Shutdown Affects $500.
Ford and the UAW-CIO, in an
agreement reached only eight
hours before a noon walkout would
have taken place yesterday, decided
to work out their differences on the
Taft Hartley problem in confer
ences that could last up to a year.
Details of a reported $20,000,000
pension plan for Ford workers-a
second big issue in the day-and-
night contract talks that imme-
diateIy preceded the agreement
will be placed before a Ford-UAW
negotiating committee that meets
tomorrow.
The Ford shutdown, affecting
$4,000 Detroit area employees and
10000 others in branch plants across
the country. brought to $1,000 the
total number of Ford employees made
idle by the Murray strike.
Strike Threat Still Possible.
About $500 others, employed on
Mercury and Lincoln assembly lines,
were laid of July rs.
The UAW-CIO, representing the
1000 striking Murray workers, has
demanded a clause in its contract
to protect the union against damage
suits permitted the employer under
the new labor law in the case of
wildcat" strikes.
In accepting the compromise
agreement on its immunity demand
from Ford, the UAW-CIO pointed
out that the strike threat still was
not withdrawn. However, there
will be no new walkout deadline
before August IA, If at all, Richard
T. Leonard, union vice president
and director of the UAW Ford de-
partment, said.
The compromise, which gave the
union at least a years grace from
any strike damage action under the
new labor legislation, provided for
study of the problem by a four
member commission composed of
two company and two union repre-
sentatives.
If the four are unable to reach q
solution within a stated period, a
fifth man will be added to the COM
mission.
Representative Hartley, Repub-
lican, of New Jersey termed the
Ford-UAW solution IAN honest
effort to comply with the terms of
the act and not an evasion"
