DETROIT, Aug. 26. - This
world auto center blase has
shed It's indifference for to-
morrow's unwilling Of the Edsel.
Photographs and features Of
the new car will appear in The
Star tomorrow.
Backed up by one Of the
best planned. best executed,
curiosity batting promotion
campaigns in auto history, the
Edsel is the first domestic new
car since Kaiser came out in
January Of 1916.
In monumental and digni-
fed advertising and by simple
gimmicks, the master plan
hasn't confined the curiosity
to Detroit by any means.
We know a teen-age auto
buff, Jim Clark Of Alexandria,
who, on hearing that Edsel-
laden transports were already
plying Shirley highway, took up
a vigil at one of the bridges
just to get a glimpse. And that
was about all he got.
When the first Of the 10000
or more Edsels already built
were being distributed over the
Nation for the public showing
September 4, the new cars were
fully covered by tarpaulins. A
little later, they came through
with just enough Of the car
showing to whet the curiosity a
little more.
Ford distributed photos OF
the car covered, to give an idea
Of its silhouette even as long
as four months ago. Then came
pictures. one Of them with

door and windshield in a side
view.
Gathered here are automo-
tive writer's from all over the
country. just as curious as any
one else, to see tomorrow's press
preview and to drive the new
one.
National magazines, some OF
which seldom design to take
up car topics, have published
conjecture articles. One be-
yond conjecture is in the Au-
gust 81 issue Of The Saturday
Evening Post - Arthur w.
Baum's II Rode Detroit's Mys-
terry Car"
Significantly, and with a clue
to the distinctive styling Mr..
Baum says about two in five
motorists appeared to notice
something different about the
disguised Edsels which Ford
Motor Co. engineers subjected
to road trials"
Clues: It does not have fuel
injection. It does not have
pneumatic air springing. 1t
does have at least 300 horse
power.

Today's the day back home
when Chuck DUANE, Station
WGAY's morning disc man and
program director, is crowding
flight instruction and his first
solo in a single day at Con-
gressional Airport. He vows he's
never had a hand on a stick,
but admits he's been examining
from the instruction manuals.
The idea is to dramatize the
practicability Of private flying
and the need for a new airport

Lacks Funds
For Session

CHICAGO, Sept. 10 GA
suspended union, the Laundry
Workers International. has an
nounced that because of lack
of funds it will not hold a spe-
cial convention ordered by the
AFL-CIO.
Ralph T. Pagan, Laundry
Workers president. yesterday
said the unions SO locals lacked
finances for the convention,
demanded by the AFL-CIO as
one of the terms for reinstate-
ment.
Mr.. Pagan Of Indianapolis,
also said the union had cleaned
up abuses in its welfare fund
program cited by George
Meany. AFL-CIO president, In
Ia May % suspension order.
Mr.. Meany ordered the co.
000-member union to call a
special convention and elect
new officers. He said failure to
do so would result in expulsion
Of the Laundry Workers at the
AFL-CIO convention in Allan
tic City, N. j.. next December S.
In his suspension order, Mr..
Meany said almost 81 million
in membership insurance funds
of the Laundry Workers had
been diverted Improperly.
Two officers resigned after
the suspension. They are Sam
y. Byers. former president, and
Eugene c. James, former Sec
retary-treasurer. Mr.. James is
under Investigation by Federal
authorities for his handling of
union funds.

tlon."
The chairman said he mem
toned this to explain some
of the tremendous hindrances,
obstacles and dificulties the
Icommittee had encountered in
trying to carry out its assign
ment."
Evil" witnesses
He said his group had to deal
with many witnesses who def
nitely we're "evil men to be
a little more specific, manipu-
lators and conspirators (both
in management and in labor
buns, crooks. hoodlums, goons,
muscle men. thugs. thieves, ex-
tortionists and possibly MUIR
derers."
Senator Mcclellan said he had
not the slightest doubt that
Congress would enact appro-
pirate legislation to correct the
many abuses he said had been
uncovered in the probe.
He said organized labor and
management could do a great
deal to curb abuses in the labor
management field, and praised
AFL-CIO leaders for what he
called their splendid co-opera-
ton in the committees work.
But let no labor leaders con-
tend. or anyone else assume"
he added. that no revision of
existing law is needed. It Is
already apparent that in some
areas the need for corrective
legislation is urgent and COM

Differ on Picketing
Phone company and union
officials differed as to the eff
fectiveness of the picketing as
the union tried to persuade
other members of the Commu-
nication Workers of America
from going to work.
Company Spokesman said To-
cal service was normal and no
mechanical troubles had de-
veloped, to which the union
agreed. The company said long
distance service was normal ex-
cept for slight delays.
The union said operators were
respecting the picket lines in
large numbers, and that super
visory employees filling in for
them were taking 8 to 10 min
utes to handle many long dis
lance calls. PIX operators in
private firms said they had ex-
perienced such delays on some
calls.

Union Reforms,

Professor Says

CINCINNATI. Sept. IS tR.-
A Washington educator who
surveyed the inner workings of
the Bakery Workers Union
says the groups executive
board has accepted his pro-
posed changes.
Prof. David S. Brown Of
George Washington University
said last night the board, meet
ing here. accepted his suggested
adjustments without change.
Mr.. Brown took more than
four hours yesterday to explain
his report to the board. He
headed a team that studied the
union executive structure and
responsibilities after charges
came from within the union
that funds were mishandled.
The professor said his
changes include:
Altering budget procedure so
the president prepares the
budget and presents it to the
executive board for approval.
Ending the power Of the pres
ident to dismiss the $1,O0O-a-
year vice president from addi-
tional jobs as international
representatives at $1,000 yearly.
and putting this power into the
hands Of the executive board.
The president still would be
able to fire representatives who
are not vice presidents.
Giving the executive board
power to decide If trusteeship is
warranted after hearing the
report of an outside panel of
experts.
Prof. Brown said the rest Of
his recommendations concerned
minor administrative matters
within union locals.
