Reulher Accuses
GM President of
Double Standard
Detroit IP) United
Auto Workers President Walt
ter P. Reuther today accus
ed General Motors President
Harlow Curtice of applying
a double standard in critic
izing the UAW's proposed
profit-sharing plan.
"For many years, General
Motors has had a profit-shar
ing plan for executives which
is the most lucrative plan in
the history of free enter
prise," Reuther said.
"We are somewhat at a
loss to understand the kind
of mental and moral gymnas
tics that are required to see
nothing but good in a profit-
sharing plan for executives
and nothing but bad in the
extension of this principle to
workers and consumers."
George Romney, president
of American Motors Corp.,
Tuesday became the latest
auto firm head to attack the
UAW proposal made on Mon
day. He called it a "subter
fuge" and" a "bludgeon" to
force a big wage gain from
the entire auto industry.
Said Forced on Others
' Romney, who heads one of
America's "little two" car
building firms, said Reuther's
strategy has been to get giant
GM to establish the size of
wage and benefit package"
and then force this "pack
age" on the rest of the in
dustry. Reuther sent copies of his
reply to Curtice's statement
to the other members of the
big three automakers Ford
Motor company and Chrysler
Corp.
The labor leader's answer
was to allegations by the big
three that the UAW demands
are extravagant, inflationary,
"foreign to the concept of free
enterprise," and will weaken
public confidence.

Generator at
Bonneville Closed
Portland (IPI A generator
capable of generating 54,000
kilowatts of power at Bonne
ville dam has been shut down
by Army engineers due to a
coil failure.
Col. Jackson Graham, dis
trict engineer, said that if
only minor repairs were re
quired the generator would
be down for two months and
repairs would cost about
835,000. If a complete rewind
ing is necessary, Graham
said, costs would rise to some
$300,000 and take about four
months.
The generator was one in
stalled during World War II
and insulation has deteriorat
ed at a more rapid rate than
normally expeoted, he said.
