Bolman was there, and so was
his attorney, Hal P. Ellis, the
lawyer Paul Block, Jr., found
for Bolman, and helped finance
with $4,000 when Bolman loomed
as trouble-maker for the union.
The auditors were assigned by
the Emil Macy committee,
which was given the right to in
spect the books at the same time
Bolman was given court author
ity to "look" without reporting
his information to outsiders.
M eanw lille the deposition
hearing in the office of Frazier
Reams at which Richard T. Cos
ser, UAW-CIO Vice President,
was to have been questioned on
the suit of Walter Murphy, in
t e rn t onal representative,
against the Blade for libel was
postponed.
Gosser has been i'll since the
latter part of last week, and is
recuperating out of town.
The Toledo Blade, in report
ing the postponement of the
hearing seemed distressed at
Gosser's illness. They pointed out
that GosSer was given post
ponement during the Chrysler
strike because he was so often
called out of town (which he
was). A new date was set when
the strike appeared about to
end (but it didn't.
This third poshponement be-
: ause of Gosser's illness was
neadlined by the Blade: "Gosser
Absence Delays Hearing"

olanations Vary For Failure To

sues.
The dispute at Mather is
centered around two dis
charges in violation of the
contract, on a backlog of more
than so basic grievances some
of which have been unresolved
for six months, and on the union
demand for Pension, Health and
Welfare benefits, and a wage
adjustment.
Richard Cole, attorney, is a
spokesman for the company.
Meanwhile the strike at
Mather is firm, the strike kitchen
picking up with the Mather
strikers where it left off when
Plaskon settled and ended the
long walk-out.
Collections for support of the
Mather strikers have egun,
with local union members re-
spending.
Actually, although the issues
themselves will be ironed out
only after some hard negotia-
tions, the strike is motivated by
other things.

stooges and weaken the unit.
Jerry Biddle, international
u A W-CIO representative,
and Nor m a n Meilink, vice
chairman, have been unable to
get meeting with management
recently, either for grievances
or for contract negotiations.
For instance, last May 4, when
a fifth step grievance meeting
was held, the unit asked that the
contract be taken up next, since
the bulk of the grievances are
violations of the existing con-
tract.
The May 4 meeting was a re-
cessed April rs meeting; the
company recessed again until
May IL, and has now failed to
set contract meeting date.
Scores of unsettled grievances,
some dating back six months,
have backlogged in part because
the company has even blocked
UAW entrance to the plant.
On one recent occasion Jerry
waited AS minutes before
Personnel would permit him to
enter the plant for a grievance
session.
The committee operates under
threat ,and frequently on its own
time, in violation of the con-
tract.
A bout $50 employees at the
plant are getting restive.

Plan because it guarantees the
farmer what he is entitled to"
and IF you do it for the farm
ers, why not do it for everybody
else?" He attacked the admins
tration's health insurance plan
on the ground that 300 of them
(the people) are able to get med
ical care and pay for it." And he
attacked the Full Employment
Bill of 1916 because he said the

Farm Phone Coop
Under Pressure

IOWA FALLS, la. (LPA)-
Ten small mutual telephone
companies, hoping to improve
service in this area, formed the
Iowa Falls Rural Telephone Co
operative, and got a $4,000
loan from the Rural Electrifica-
ton Administration. AS soon as
the news got out, reports cir
culated that the Bell company
was going to serve the territory,
and members of the coop along
one of the main existing mutual
lines began to waver in their
support for the coon.
