Auto Workers Give
Ultimatum to Men
Opposing Contracts
Detroit (U.R) The CIO Tint
ed Auto Workers Saturday fol
lowed announcement of member
ship approval of the two new
Chrysler Corp. contracts with
an ultimatum to rebellious
striking skilled workers dissat
isfield with the new pacts.
UAW Vice-President Norman
Matthews said the 33 locals cov
ered by the Chryler agreements
ratified them by a margin of 97
percent. The pacts cover 110,000
production and maintenance, en
gineering, office, parts and cafet
eria workers and will be retro
active to Sept. 1. .
Unanimous Approval
UAW Secreary-Treasurer Emil
Mazey said 30,000 Chrysler auto
body division workers approved
their new contract almost un
aniously. Chrysler was the last of the
"Big Three" auto firms to agree
to a guaranteed wage plan. The
Chrysler pacts closely paralled
those covering Ford and General
Motors workers.
Mazey also issued an ultimat
um to 420 skilled workers at
two Chrysler plants. He warn
ed the striking workers that
"failure to retrun to work on
your part will result in disciplin
ary action by the union."
Three Suspended
The 420 shut down the Ver-
nor plant and Mack plant Thurs
day after the union suspended a
shop committeeman . and two
Stewarts from union posts on
grounds they had joined a rival
union set up by skilled workers
dissatisfied with the new con
tracts. Chrysler officials said
the walkouts may hamper pro
duction of 1956 models.
Mazey warned the workers
"in the event the Chrysler Corp.
takes any disciplinary action
against you you will not have
the benefit" or "the support"
of the union.
He said the walkouts were
"entirely the product of anti
union maneuvering by a hand
ful of individuals-who seek to
make personal gain at the ex
pense of union members."
50 YEARS LATE
Pullman, Wash. (U.R) Colo
nel Speed Sapp received his de
gree from Washington State Col
lege at the school's 59th com
mencement exercises 50 years
after he left to join the Army.
But he had to take the degree in
general because the curriculum
of economics, science and history
he was taking in 1905 is no
longer offered. Colonel, incident
ally, is Sapp's first name. He was
a major in the Army.

Employment Outlook for US
College Grads
Chicago U.R) The em
ployment outlook for next year's
college gradutes appears better
than ever before in history, the
Midwest College Placement as
sociation reported Saturday.
The group, composed of in
dustry representatives from all
parts of the nation, said that
the demand for college gradu
ates is up 5 to 20 per cent over
1955.
Industry Optimistic
In a concluding meeting Fri
day of a two-day conference,
the association said the rosy
outlook stems from the fact
"that industry appears optim
istic both about the future and
about its needs for more employ
ees with college degrees."

VFW Gives Support
To USAF Survival
Training Program
Washington U.R) The Vet
erans of Foreign Wars Saturday
expressed "100 per cent" appro
val of the Air Force's controver
sial "survival training" school
in Nevada where airmen are
taught how to deal with Com
munist brainwashing techniques.
Timothy J. Murphy, VFW
commander in chief, wired the
Air Force that "we would be
better prepared in the event of
another war" if similar training
were given combat personnel of
other branches of the military
service.
"It would indeed be unfortun
ate if because a few people crit
icize but one phase of the pro
groam the Air Force is compelled
to modify its splendid survival
training course," Murphy said.
He was obviously referring to
the "interrogation" phase of the
widely- publicized course at
Stead Air Force base, during
which instructors give volun
tary students a sample of Red
brainwashing.
The Air Force announced
Friday that it will continue the
"interrogation phase" of the
survival course while it is car
rying out a study to learn wheth
er any changes are needed as
a result of President Eisenhow
er's new prisoner of war code.
The code calls on prisoners to
resist all efforts of captors to
get military information from
them.

Best Ever
Starting salaries for the 1956

er and many will receive as
many as three salary increases
during their period of training,
the association said. .

gree can expect to be offered

with a Ph. D. in technical fields
will be offered up to $600

Fiery Governor of
Pennsylvania Not
Among Candidates
Los Angeles U.R) Pennsyl
vania's Democratic Gov. George
M. Leader, whose fiery speeches
in California opened a hornet's
nest of inter-party charges and
counter-charges, said Friday he
bas no personal ambition for the
presidency but could make "a
quick" change of mind. '
Leader declined to name any
choice for the Democratic nomi
nation at a press conference. He
said it was "too early" to en
dorse any Democratic party pres
idential hopefuls at this time.
Might Change Mind
But asked if he would accept
candidacy for president or vice
president if either were offered
him, Leader grinned and con
ceded it would be possible for
hi mto change his mind.
The Quaker State Governor
charged Thursday night in a
speech in Los Angeles that Pres
ident Eisenhower is "a political
freak" who has enjoyed a ten
derness of approach 'that is
unique in America's political
history." The speech was seen
as the beginning of a Democratic
get-tough policy toward the Pres
ident and possibly as Leaders'
bid for a presidential nomina
tion. f
Leader spoke at the Los An
geles dinner and at a San Fran
cisco dinner Wednesday night
in place of former President
Truman who liad to cancel his
scheduled appearances at the
fund-raising affairs.
Brought GOP Replies
His San Francisco speech re
ferred to "underworld" in
fluences in the Republican Par
ty and brought impassioned re
plies from Republican leaders
and from White House spokes
men.
Assistant White House Press
Secretary Muray Snyder said
that the underworld label might
be more appropriate if pinned on
Leader's party.
Leader replied that he was not
referring to criminal elements
but to" "the isolationist wing and
the prevent-atomicpwar now peo
ple in the Republican Party."
In his Los Angeles speech,
Leader said "Dwight Eisenhower
is no constitutional monarch, a
symbol of state removed from
party convention. He is a Re
publican partisan president
and he should be so recognized
and treated." ,
