The Senate Armed Services
Committee is expected to approve
a four-year extension of the
draft law Monday. leaving for
consideration later the admins
tration plan for building up the
Nations military reserves.
The committee also is believed
ready to go along with the ad-
ministration request for a two
year extension of the doctor
draft law, which permits the
calling of doctors and dentists
up to age so.
There is still strong pressure
to include the new military re-
serve program in the draft bill,
but the fact that the draft law
expires June 80 may deter the
Senate from tying the two sub
jects together. A contest with
the House over the reserve plan
might prevent passage of the
draft extension between now and
June 80.

guessing that GIN might do SO
in a manner that would embar-
raSS Mr.. Reuther and even en-
danger his guaranteed wage idea
completely.
| 1t was speculated that GIN
might make two offers, one like
the Ford plan and another pro-
posing much larger cash pay
boosts for GIN workers, with the
suggestion that the UAW let the
workers choose between the two
plans.
! In the Ford negotiations Mr..
Reuther had proposed such a
vote among the workers. He
called for a worker choice be-
tween a Ford plan to let workers
buy company stock at half price
and the JAWS guaranteed wage
plan. Ford never took UP the
vote offer. but instead ultimately
negotiated a guaranteed wage
plan.
Any GIN offer providing for a
fat pay raise, either alone or as
an alternative to the guaranteed
wage, might put Mr. Reuther on
the spot.
Since the Ford guaranteed
wage plan was announced Mon
day, there have been a number
of Ford work stoppages and
worker protests that Mr.. Reuther
bought the guaranteed wage
principle at a price of foregoing
healthy wage increases from the
lprofit-Swollen auto industry.
| This could mean that workers,
faced with choice between the
guaranteed wage and steep wage
increases. might vote against Mr..
Reuther and take the latter. If
GIN could engineer this, it would
be a severe personal blow to Mr..
Reuther and might even en-
danger his keeping the guaran-
teed wage plan won at Ford,
which has not as yet been rati-
fed by Ford union members.

Postal employe unions today
bitterly criticized the admins
tration for "robbing" postal
workers of the retroactive por-
ton of their 8 per cent pay

The postal groups centered
their fire on Postmaster General
Summerfleld'S decision that one
week of postal workers pay will
be skipped in July SO the depart
ment can convert to a biweekly
pay basis and the regional Offices
can issue pay checks.
The average retroactive raise
for postal workers amounts to
about SIS, which is about what
the average weekly postal salary
amounts to.
Consequently, the postal unions
are charging that Mr.. Summer
fields action in delaying the July

their retroactive pay.

Catholic Ritual

BUENOS AIRES. Argentina,
June II tP1.-Authorities watch
ed Roman Catholic preparations
for today's Corpus Christi pro-
.cession inside Metropolitan
Cathedral. Trouble could erupt
If the crowd spills out into the
square in front of the church.
Although the square-the his.
toric Plaza de Mayo-is the ira
'ditional scene of the annual
ceremony honoring the Eucharist,
police have forbidden it to the
marchers this year.
Some church sources said the
procession may attract one of
the largest Catholic crowds in
recent months in this country,
where the church and President
Juan Peron's government have
been feuding since last Novem-
Der.
Wash Our Hands
BY switching the procession
inside the cathedral, church
authorities complied at least
technically with the police order,
But sources quoted Catholic
leaders who informed govern
ment officials of the change as
saying I'VE wash our hands" of
what the people may do.
Corpus Christi day actually
was last Thursday. But the
Peron government has abolished
most religious holidays, includ-
ing Corpus Christi. Church Off
cials decided to hold the pro-
ceSsion today so that more work
ing people could attend.
Pro-government newspapers,
meanwhile, have been playing up
plans to welcome home Pascual
Perez, the worlds fiyweight box
ing champion. in an apparent
effort to lure sports loving Ar
gentlnianS away from the cere-
mony.
Perez, who retained his title
in a Tokyo fight with Japan's
YoShio Shira on May 30, is
scheduled to arrive here by air at
the same hour in the afternoon
that the cathedral procession is
scheduled to begin.
Labor unions have called on
their members to be on hand
for the welcoming ceremony.
Gen. Peron probably will greet
Perez at the airport.
Priest Arrested.
Police arrested another priest
last night. He was the 77th
taken into custody in the
church-state dispute that came
out in the open when Gen. Peron
accused some churchmen of at
tempting to undermine his re-
gime. Church authorities have
denied the charge.
The arrested clergyman was
identified as the Rev. Carlos
Ponce de Leon of suburban Villa
Urquiza. He reportedy was seized
when he went to police head
quarters to inquire about a
Catholic layman arrested while
distributing leaflets urging
church members to attend the

that during this second extern

If during the period of the

Halls Contract
|AsGood for All

P.-Ernest r. Breech, board
chairman of Ford Motor Co., to-
day described the Ford-union
contract agreement good for
the workers. good for the COM
|pany, good for the whole coun-
try"
Mr.. Breech said in an address
prepared for the Harvard Busi-
ness Schools. 25th annual Ma
Itional Business Conference that
the agreement with the CIO
United Auto Workers Union
solves a knotty problem which
concerns not only American in
dustry, but the general public
as WELL"
The three-year agreement
reached last Monday provides a
guaranteed semiannual wage"
and other benefits. Under the
agreement, a $55 million COM
Ipany fund will be established to
pay benefits ranging up to $25
a week to laid-off employees. The
payments would supplement
State unemployment benefits.
Cites Ford's Views
Mr.. Breech said that Ford long
has been completely sympa-
Ithetic toward the desire of our
employees to lessen the risks of
unemployment resulting from
seasonal factors in the auto in
Idustry.
I'VE have sought consistently
to stabilize our production and
employment to minimize lay-offs
due to model changes by better
planning, to use overtime pay,
wherever possible, to meet pro-
Iduction peaks rather than hire
temporary workers." he said.
I'VE have made much progress
in this direction" he said, and
added:
"We began some time ago to
work on details of a proposed
plan of private experimentation
fof unemployment compensation
that would give substantial added
security to our workers in ways
consistent with sound private
enterprise principles.
1--WE believed that such a plan
should not shackle management S
freedom to manage. 1t should
be a definite determinable cost
item with a definitely limited
liability. 1t should not offer un-
employment benefits so great as
to remove the incentive to work.
THE present plan tunion
agreementl meets every one of
those requirements"
Sees Expanding Market
Mr.. Beech said the future mar
ket promises to be unlike any
thing we have known before"
and predicted it will be "hotly
competitive"
I'VE see no ceilings to that
market except the ones imposed
by our own shortness of vision y
the Ford board chairman said.
Mr.. Beech told the conference:
I'VE see a constantly expand
ing market for cars and trucks
and other automobile equipment
over the long pull and, frankly,
we intend to take an increasing
share of that market for our
own products. ....
"We believe it is our business
and that of other large COM
Ipanies, to make trends, not fol-
low them. A confident, aggres-
sive spirit, backed up by intelli-
gent planning and hard-hitting
management, can be contagious. "
