Annual Wage Plan
Called Impractical
By NAN President

The president of the National
Association of Manufacturers
said yesterday his organization
doesn't believe a guaranteed an
nual wage for workers, as now
sought by many labor unions,
is practical.
Harold c. Mcclellan. NAM
head. interviewed on the NBC
TV-radio show, Meet the
Press" said there is no way of
guaranteeing a specific annual
wage to workers now paid on an
hourly basis unless business has
some definite way of knowing
ahead OF time how much money
1t Will make. This isn't possible
now in most cases. he said, add
ing:
We should avoid making
commitments as companies
which endanger the financial
position Of the companies and
OF all the employees in them"
cant Predict Profits.
Mr.. Mcclellan said there is no
way OF knowing whether sales
may drop off and a firm
shouldn't be forced to pay more
workers than it needs.
Asked for his opinion about
profit sharing plans carried on
for their workers by various
firms, Mr.. Mcclellan said each
organization should be able to
appraise its own problems and
work them out on that basis"
In answer to other questions.
the NAM president said his or
ganization is more in favor of
the Eisenhower administration
than 1T was of the Democratic
predecessors. But he said he
doesn't regard President Eisen-
hower's as a "businessman's s."
administration but considers it
a "businesslike" administration.
"The President is demonstrate
Ing that he is the President for
a1lpf u.s." Mr.. Mcclellan said.
Urges Caution on Security.
He was asked what the MANS
attitude was toward Gen. Eisen-
hower'S program for increasing
social security benefits in view
OF the MANS opposition to,
setting up the original program
in the 30s. Mr.. Mcclellan said
his organizations views were
different now but he believed
the present setup should be
watched carefully and not "be
tinkered with until we know
more about" the costs and re-
quirements 10 to 20 years
from now.
On the question of increasing
United States trade with Russia,
Mr.. Mcclellan said he doesn't
think there was ANY merit" to-
such a move.
THE dangers are more serious
than the possible benefits" he
said.
The NAM head was asked
about his organizationB recent
study with group Of educators
on the possibility Of teaching IT.
the schools what communism is.
He said there were conflicting
views but the NAM consensus
was that it could be. taught OBJ
jectively as one way of prepar-
ing graduates to meet the prob
lens of the day intelligently.
