BRUNE United Press Correspondent Detroit (U.R) An all-out as sault to change the unemploy ment compensation laws in the 48 states is apt to be the first big effect on the new "guaran teed wage" contracts in the auto mobile industry. Legislators can get ready for the most powerful campaign they've ever seen to have unem ployment benefits increased. The measure will come both from labor and management. Under the guaranteed wage plans embodied in the new auto industry contracts, a laid-off worker is to receive payments both from the state and from special funds to be set up by the industry. Many states have laws that now prohibit such a double-payment plan. But the CIO United Auto Workers and Henry Ford II both have said they anticipate little trouble in getting such laws changed. All Gain The real fight looms over how much the states are willing to pay in unemployment benefits. The higher the state payments are, the less the auto industry will have to pay from its own pocket to bring lay-off benefits up to 60 to 65 per cent of normal take-home pay. as provided in the new contracts. CIO President Walter Reuther said one of the major benefits he expected from the guaran teed wage agreement was that it will put management and the unions on the same side in lob bying for higher unemployment benefits from the states. All wage earners, not just auto workers, would benefit from this. When unemployment compen sation laws were first enacted they gave workers about 50 per cent of their normal pay during lay-offs. But wages have gone up and unemployment benefits haven't. On the average, an un employed worker now gets about a third of his normal pay from the state. In many states it is much low er than a third. High benefits in some states, like Michigan where the weekly benefit is $54, keep the national average high. Around Detroit, speculation about the future of the guaran teed wage has already extended to 1958, when the new auto in dustry contracts expire. Reuther has declared he and his union will be asking for more in '58. With the principle of the guar anteed wage now set up, the un ion hereafter will be seeking to increase the amount an idle worker will receive. The 60 to 65 per cent now guaranteed him is a far cry from the ideal of 100 per cent. The prospect of higher and higher unemployment compen sation has many men in the auto industry worried. Henry Ford II, who was the first to yield a guaranteed wage plan to em ployees, summed up the fears this way: "We don't want to reach the point where a fellow would be just as happy to loaf and draw unemployment compensation as he would be to work." Army Man Sought For Questioning In Triple Murder Dickinson, Tex. (U.R) Au thorities today sought a husky, blonde Army sergeant, about 24, with a crew haircut as the num ber one suspect in the unsolved, triple-murder of , a well-to-do Dickinson family. Mrs. John McPherson, 44, her son, George, 12, and her mother, Mrs. J. N. Norman, 65 were shot and killed as they slept about midnight last Wednesday in two bedrooms of their secluded, pine sheltered, suburban cot tage. But their bodies were not found until Saturday by con stable Earl Turner, who went to investigate at the request of a neighbor. Turner walked through an un locked front door to find Mrs. McPherson's body, dressed in two-piece pajamas, in the master bedroom of her $30,000, ranch style home. The boy and his grandmother were together in the bed of another room. Mrs. McPherson's husband had been away for three weeks on a job in Sulphur, La. Deputy Sheriff Pete Ursy said a waitress in the Loma Linda Cafe in Dickinson said she over heard a telephone conversation of Mrs. McPherson with her mother late Wednesday. Usry said she spoke of "bringing an old sergeant friend home for dinner."
