Three Auto Contracts To Expire
Sunday; GAW Talks to Continue
Detroit (U.R) The live-year
wage contracts at Ford, General
Motors and American Motors
are due to expire at the end of
May, but contract negotiations
crucial to the U.S. economy may
be far from settled when that
date rolls around
In some industries this might
mean a work stoppage under the
"no contract, no work" policy.
But m the auto industry, the
calendar probably will flip to
June 1 with no plan for an in
terruption of production.
Make Or Break
Economists view the success
or failure of efforts to maintain
peace in the auto industry as a
make-or-break proposition for
the highriding economic boom
In America.
A settlement of the negotia
tions or a strike may not
come before mid-June, mid-July
or even later, as the CIO United
Auto Workers have announced
they won't necessarily follow
the "no contract, no work" pol
icy which the United Mine
Workers and some other un
ions have used.
Contracts Continued
What will happen when the
UAW contracts expire? If nego
tiations are making progress, the
present contracts would be con
tinued in effect. But on a day-to-day
basis, with the union free
to act whenever it wished.
The companies would have.
the right to terminate the con
tracts at any time, too. But no
one expects them to, not with
the demand for cars running as
high as it is.
Negotiators started meeting
early in April to try to work
out new agreements to replace
the contracts signed in 1950.
The union demand for a guar
anteed annual wage, higher pay,
better ' pensions . and bigger
health programs wasn't all. that
had to be taken up.

"Just re-working all the little
technical differences could take
from now until the contracts
run out," a spokesman said "Of
course no one wants to settle
anything until they've settled
everything, so things really move
slow."
Meanwhile, information that
creeps out of the closed-door
negotiations has been pleasant
enough so far. Both sides have
refrained from blasting each
other :n public. When they get
into serious disagreement, this
is sure to change.
Newsmen covering the long
negotiating sessions are coming

The "bargaining table" al

Statement First
Cleared Through
State Department
By LYLE C. WILSON

This Far
East dispute
between the
Eisenhower ad
LyleC Wilson ministration
and Sen. William F. Knowland
(R-Calif.), the Republican leader
of the Senate, is an example.
Knowland used hard words in
protesting any dealings with
Red China from which the Chi
nese Nationalists .were excluded
His statement followed by a few
hours President Eisenhower's ex
pression of confidence that there
were, areas of negotiations which
the United States and Red China
could enter unaccompanied by
the Chinese Nationalists, but
without putting the Nationalist
cause to disadvantage.
Now, 24 hours alter, the
Knowland statement and the
whole dispute are in somewhat
better perspective. Perhaps it is
neither as serious nor as angry
as it seemed at first. Pieces of
additional fact have since be
come available.
Advises Stale Department
For instance,' Knowland, evi
dently advised the State Depart
ment Thursday befose he made
public his sharply critical state
ment. The nub of his protest was
that Red China's En-lai was not
on the level with last week's of
fer to discuss current problems
with the United States. .
More specifically. Knowland
said he feared the United States
would be maneuvered into an
appeasing position in which the
offshore islands. Ouemov and
the Matsus, would be lost and,
ultimately, Formosa.
The United Press has been in
formed from a most trustworthy
source that President Eisenhow
er is telling 'all comers that he
has no intention whatsoever of
seeking to induce Generalissimo
Chiang Kai-shek to give up any
territory.
That statement of policy
would' cover Quemoy and the
Matsus equally with Formosa.
although the United States is not
committed to defend the smaller
islands.
It appears that the fears Know-
land expressed were groundless
so far as surrender of territory
wa concerned. And, since he dis
cussed the matter with the State
Department before making a
statement, it seems fair to as
sume that Knowland was fully
aware of Mr. Eisenhower's firm
position.
More Useful Than Harmful
If that line of reasoning is
sound, then Knowland's' state
ment could be more useful than
harmful to Mr. Eisenhower
overall because of its imnact
abroad. The Democratic opposi
tion and some others are press
ing the President to go far to
avoid a break with U.S. allies.
The allies are pressing for U.S.
concessions to lessen the chance
of World War III being trigger
ed by events in the Formosa
Strait.
Knowland's statement the
fact he is the Senate Republican
leader could be more effective
than any words of Secretary of
State John Foster Dulles in per

nadians and others that the U.S.
is not yet ready to suggest ter
ritorial concessions to the Chi
nese Communists.
And from other sources there
were indications today that
Knowland would not necessari
ly break with the administration
if talks with Red China were
undertaken, provided there was
an absolute taboo on territorial
concessions at the expense of
Chiang.

Rubirosa Divorced
From Babs Hutton
Ciudad Trujillo, Dominican
Republic -(U.R) Porfirio Rubi
rosa was granted a divorce from
Woolworth heiress Barbara Hut
ton by a Dominican court justice
Thursday night.
The court approved the peti
tion for the divorce decree filed
by the Dominican playboy-diplomat
last month. Attorneys for
Rubirosa based his plea for an
end to his marriage on "incom
patibility of character."
Miss Hutton, 42, and Rubiro
sa, 46, were married in the Do
minican consulate in New York
City on Dec. 30, 1953. Less than
three months later, they an
nounced they had decided on a
"friendly separation."
It was Miss Hutton's fifth mar
riage; Rubirosa's fourth.
