Defroif Owner
HopesTo Align
With Syndicate
Detroit U.R) A "for tale"
sign soon may be hung on the
Detroit Tigers because base
ball club is not considered a
sound ingpstment for trust
fund owner Spike Briggs said
today.
But Briggs said he. would
make every effort to align him
self with a syndicate which
might buy the club because "the
Briggs name has been part of
the Detroit franchise since 1918
and I'd hate to end that associa
tion now."
An intricate legal situation
which is expected to come to a
head by the end of October is
responsible for the possible sale
of the multi-million dollar fran
chise, called by some the
"strongest in baseball."
The final decision will rest
with the U.S. Treasury Dept.,
which is appraising the estate
of the late Walter O. Briggs for
the purpose of inheritance taxes.

Chrysler Workers
Threaten To Quit
Jobs at Midnight
By UNITED PRESS
Almost " 190,000 employees
were on the verge of nationwide
strikes today against Chrysler
Corp., Westinghouse, and Pan
American World Airways.
The biggest walkout threat
ened Chrysler. Leaders of tec
CIO United Auto Workers
served notice that 139,000 em
poyees would go on strike at
midnight tonight in six states
unlessDthe big auto company
comes up with new offers.
Simultaneously, the CIO Elec
trical Workers Union ordered a
nationwide strike of 42,000
Westinghouse employees Sept.
11 unless a dispute is settled at
the firm's giant East Pittsburgh,
Pa., plant.
In New York, a strike was
threatened for any time after
midnight against Pan American
World Airways. Michael J.
Quill, president of the CIO
Transport Workers Union, said
98 per cent of the 6,000 em
ployees involved had voted for
the walkout.
187,000 Workers Involve i
If all the strikes take placed
a total of 187,000 workers would
go off their jobs. In addition,
contracts covering 24,000 Ameri
can Motors Corp. employees in
Michigan and Wisconsin run out
Thursday and they were expect
ed to follow the lead of the
Chrysler" workers.
There were some bright spots
in the labor picture, however.
A tentative contract agree
ment between the Firestone Tire
and Rubber Company and the
CIO International Rubber Work
ers Union averted a possible
strike of employees in seven
states.
The agreement provided a
general 12-cent hourly wage
boost, plus vacation, holiday
and hospitalization benefits.
Plants involved are located at
Akron, O.; Des Moines, la.; Fall
River, Mass.; Los Angeles, Calif.;
Memphis, Tenn.; New Castle,
Ind.; Noblesville, . Ind.; Potts
town, Pa.
Tarm Machinery Dispute
In the fcfm machinery indus
try, strikes continued to idle 40,
000 International Harvtt.er Co.,
employees and 4,475 workers in
two Allis-Chalmers Co. plants.
Negotiations were continuing,
however, and the Allis-Chalmers
talks at Milwaukee, covering
13,000 employees, were expect
ed to reach the critical stage to
day. At Detroit, negotiators settled
down for day-long talks in an at
tempt to avert the Chrysler
walkout.
Hopes were high for a settle
ment, even though union Secretary-Treasurer
Emil M a z e y
warned "if the company wants
to avoid a strike at midnight it
will have to move on many
issues."
The company and union have
already reached agreement on
basic economic issues, including
a modified guaranteed wage
plan, a pay boost, and improved
pensiohs. But "side issues"
threatened to stall a final ettle
ment. 1
A strike "would idle plants in
Michigan, California, Delaware,
Indiana, Georgia, and Louisiana.
Time-Study Protest
The Westinghouse dispute in
volved a company-ordered time
study project at the East Pitts
burg plant. About 2.200 day
workers have already wlked
out in protest against the project
and more than 6,000 production
workers and 1,350 white collar
employees were later fur
Ioughed. Company officials charged
that a Sept. 11 strike would be
a violation of the company-union
contract which expires four days
later. But a union spokesman re
torted that the East Pittsburgh
dispute "affects every Westing
house focal."
The CIO Pan American em
ployees were ready to walk out
to back up demands for an 18
cent hourly wage increase for
hourly-rated employees and a
$45 monthly pay boost for flight
service employees.
