ton Monday.
The strike was called on on

bowed to the JAWS order today.
Local 3 pickets shut down Dodge
Main last Monday. It claimed
the company had instituted a
speedup requiring one man to
do the work of two.
Dodge Denies 'Speedup.'
The company denied any
speedup and said the strike
stemmed from its firing of two
trim department employees for
refusing to do work assigned
them. 1t termed the demonstra-
ton violation of contract.
Gradually the Dodge strike
strangled other Chrysler assem-
bly, lines. Dodge makes parts for
other Chrysler divisions. Drivers
who shuttle bodies and parts
from plant to plant joined their
fellow members of Local 8 In the
walkout. BY the end of the week
44.850 of Chryslers $4,000 hourly
paid workers were idle.
The JAW board, which in
cludes President Walter p. Reu-

by striking without first getting
approval Of International Head

Inadequate Security
BY the Associated Pres.

NEW YORK, Mar. 13.-Rear
Admiral Ellis M. Zacharias, the
retired naval intelligence officer,
said today the Nations security
system ''is entirely inadequate
and improperly set up" =
"At the same time" he added,
I'VE find our security menaced by
those who purport to be fighting
communism but are contributing
directly to the detectives of Mos
cow"
He did not elaborate on how
our security might be menaced,
nor did he name those he &C
cused Of helping Moscow.
Admiral Zacharias made the
statements before 1000 elemen-
tary and high school editors at
the 30th annual convention of
the Columbia Scholastic Press
Association.
He said he has gained a mod
est knowledge of the elements in
volved and the techniques neces-
sary to safeguard our security"
and added:
Today we do not have that
security because our present sys-
tenn is entirely inadequate and
improperly set up"
He said he could see no reason
for need for congressional COM
mittees to act as principal safe
guards against communism. At
another point he said:
To-day. we even find the Pres
ident's own staff divided on flu
ture political procedures because
a small band of evil men would
destroy the Republican Party to
get its own way"
