Dead line Sunday Classified Is at noon Saturday ; 10 a.m. Monday for Monday- other davs 5:30 orevinusday By REY W. BRUNE United Press Correspondent Detroit (U.R) Automation threatens to shatter the labor management harmony which has prevailed in the automobile in dustry for the past five years. , Walter Reuther, president of the United Auto "Workers, and most other union leaders see eye-to-eye with management on the ultimate significance of au tomation. They agree it could raise American living standards to unheard-of levels. But they don't agree on how automation the use of auto matic equipment to perform many tasks now performed by human labor should be intro duced. Reuther says the union is not "afraid" of automation itself, but fears the industry may rush into the automation age with out regard to the individual worker. The UAW already has served notice that long-term con tracts are out. "Under contracts of short duration ," the UAW said in a Lower California OKs Improvement Study Mexicali, Mex. (U.R) The government of the state of Low er California has signed an agreement with . a firm of em gineers to prepare a detailed study of the state and advise on how improvements may best be made. Gov. Braulio Maldonado sign ed the contract with Ingenieria y Arquiteclura Internacionales, a Mexican corporation associat ed with the Washington firm of Thomas B. Bourne. The list of items to be studied include the construction of su perhighways throughout the state, development of hydro electric power, water resources, sewage disposal and a storm drainage. Results of the survey will be used as i guide to the govern ment and as a means of bringing foreign capital into the state. Canada and the United States are the only countries' in the world having a surplus rather than a shortage of food policy statement, "the union will be able to keep abreast of the various developments." Automation is a key factor behind the UAW's drive for a guaranteed annual wage in con tract negotiations this spring. Severance pay provisions un der a guaranteed wage agree ment would discourage com panies from laying off large numbers of employees to make way for automation in plants, the union believes. Instead, au tomation would be introduced during times of expanding mar kets when displaced workers could find: other jobs more quickly The UAW also feels manufac turers would be more inclined to train old employees to perform new, more highly skilled jobs in automated plants rather than hire new workers. The union says it is fearful the companies might use automation only for lowering production costs and increasing profits, not as a "tool for the creation of abundance." If this happens, the union would press for a redu tion in the work week perhaps to a 30 hour week without re duction in pay. . The UAW has told its locals to resist any effort, by manage ment to cover new automated or semi-automated jobs with bid classifications and pay rates. The UAW says it is determin ed to see what automation is put to work "for the, expansion of the economy ,with a minimum of displacement and hardships for workers."
