Ford and CIO
Recess PurIey

DETROIT, May up. - A
week-long adjournment in the
Ford Motor Co.-CIO United Auto
Workers Union contract talks
was announced yesterday in the
midst of a hustle of activity on
the automotive labor front.
The long recess touched off
speculation of movement" in
the negotiations, which are ex-
pected to come to climax late
this month.
There was no confirmation
from either side, however, that
any new proposals or counter
proposals had been made.
The UAW is seeking a guaran-
teed annual wage throughout the
auto industry, and Ford long has
been considered the most likely
company for a showdown with
the union.
Ford and UAW negotiators
met for three hours today, then
adjourned until Wednesday.
One reason for the long recess
is a meeting of the JAWS Ma
tional Ford Council here Mon
day. Members of the council,
representing 100000 Ford work.
ers across the Nation, will be
given an up-to-the- minute re-
port on negotiations whichc have
been in progress since April IL.
A similar meeting will be held
then of the General Motors Con-
ference. representing 1876. 900 GIN
workers around the country.
General Motors and the union
also held another bargaining
session yesterday.
Earlier in the day American
Motors Corp. announced it would
seek the advice of eight national
ly known economists as to how a
guaranteed anual wage plan
would work in its plants.
