UAW-CIO
Rejects
Ford Bid

DETROIT, June 3 (LPA)-
Strikes that would close down
both the Ford Motor Co. and
the Briggs Manufacturing Co.
by the United Auto Workers
CIO were a distinct possibility
this week.
The strike possibility at Ford
came closer as the UAW, repre-
senting 10000 in Ford plants,
called for a strike vote and two
days later flatly rejected the
equivalent of 15c-an-hour pay
hike.
The rejection after tn r e e
weeks of negotiations, was
based on Ford's refusal to con-
slider one of the JAWS major
demands, a retirement plan.
The wage offer, it was indi-
Gated, would have been accept
able had it been accompanied by
acceptance of the unions retire
ment demand.
The UAW originally demand
ed 2312c an hour, the retire
ment plan and other benefits.
The Ford offer was for a IL 12c
hourly pay raise plus six paid
annual holidays, the same pat
tern established with General
Motors and Chrysler. However,
it was estimated that if the
UAW accepted the Ford offer
the comparative hourly rates
would be: Ford-1.5012; Chrys-
ler-$1 4412; GM-$1 .4212.

no choice but to strike for their
own protection" Negotiations

.CIO Protests
QUESTIONABLE

WASHINGTON June 8 (LPA'
A sharp protest about the
loaded questions sent to. indus
trial, labor and business leader.
by the Joint Committee on The
Economic Report was lodged
with chairman Robert A. Taf
(R., Ohio by CIO Presiden
Philip Murray last week.
Besides containing prejudicia
questions - and emitting pos.
sible answers from the checklist
after each question - Murray
told Taft that when compiled
the answers are to be Jumped
in a summary which will in
dubitably create considerable
| bias"
The questions, which were
sent out in an effort to obtain
views on the future of the ma
ton, were framed by Dun &
Bradstreet, Wall st. financial re
porting agency. Murray criti
cized the committee for using a
private firm instead of a fed
eral agency to conduct what
should be a fair and impartial
study.
Ask Their Own
In addition, the CIO head
pointed out, some questions
were inserted by Dun & Brad
street on their own - including
queries what should be done
about personal and corporate in
come taxes, the level of federal
expenditure, and a request for
a rating in order of Importance
Of obstacles to the continuation
of a high level of employment" "
Checklists followe d each
question and the omission of an
sWers that might indicate prof
its are too high, and are men
ace TO continuing prosperity,
Murray pointed out, loaded"
the results.
The CIO President urged call
ing of public hearings "even at
this belated date. Instead of
holding hearings and discuss
ing the basic economic problems
facing our country, the Con.
gress' time and that of two of
its important committee has
been consumed with debates
about labor problems and labor
legislation" Murray told Taft.
