eral Motors dedicates its new
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. industrial
research center near here today
with a display of many of the
newest wonders of science and

closed circuit television network
extending to 81 cities in the
United States and Canada.
General Motors said the net
work would carry other phases
OF the dedication to some 10000
persons in GIN plant cities. in
addition to about 5000 scientists
engineers and technicians invited
t oattend the program at the
Technical Center, as the new
facility is called.
The center, which consists of
rs buildings on a 330-acre site

cluster around a 22-acre artificial
lake. Harlow H. Curtice, Cen
eral Motors president, described
the center as designed not only
to keep GIN in business for years

|Stee|Workers
Seek Raise

PITTSBURGH, May is tR.-
The United Steelworkers' Union
will seek a substantial wage
increase and 81 other contract
changes in forthcoming negotia-
tons with 172 basic steel firms
The demands, approved yes
terday by the unions 170-mem-
Der Wage Policy Committee,
touch on almost every part of
the current contract.
Highest on the list, besides
wages, are a premium pay plan
for Saturday and Sunday work
and supplemental unemployment
benefits. The committee did not
put a dollar and cents value on
the package.
A date for negotiation with
basic steel companies has not
been set, but union officials said
they are hopeful to get contract
talks under way by about June l .
Contracts covering $4,000
union members in the 172 firms
expire at midnight June 80. If
an agreement is not reached by
that time, the union is free to
strike.
Mr.. Mcdonald said other high
lights of the contract proposals
are improved insurance benefits,
a union shop, more holidays and
longer vacations. He said the
Policy Committee termed these
long overdue"
SteelworkerS now earn an
average of $2.47 an hour.
The current contract was
signed in 1854. An additional
lucent hourly wage increase was
negotiated last year under a re-
opening clause after a 12-hour
strike.

last year. Mr.. Curtice said some
additional layoffs are planned
flor this week and that he hoped
these would be the last for the
1856 model run.
He said the industry as &
whole had run into several diff.
lf1culties in selling cars this year
But, he said, as far as Genera
Motors is concerned, overpro.
lduction in 1855 was not one Of
the difficulties.
A questioner suggested that
Walter Reuther, president of the
United Auto Workers Union, anc
others had laid some of the
blame for the poor market or
overproduction and oversupply
|of cars in 1855.
Mr.. Curtice said: 1--WE have
not INDUCED in overproduction
at any time"
Among the difficulties, he said
were the Federal Reserve Boards
policy of tighter credit and the
great amount of speculation that
1857 models would be revolu-
tionary.
Mr.. Curtice said the credit
controls were bad and should
be reversed. He admitted his
new sales figure was based on
the assumption credit will be
eased sometime while 1856
models still are on sale.
He said predictions of revo-
Ilutionary changes just weren't
$50. The auto industry. accord
ing to Mr.. Curtice, makes evo-
Ilutionary changes, a few new
things at a time.
Another bad thing, he said
was the assumption that 1857
models would be introduced
earlier. General Motors cars will
be introduced about the same
period as last year, Gin other
words. November /, plus or minus
10 days" he said.
Mr.. Curtice said 1857 models
will cost more than 1856 models
He said labor and all raw ma
terials are somewhat higher and
that the price of steel is ex-
Ipected to rise.
