THE MICHIGAN DAILY igArrillonAIV _HE..CHI AN AL- -_- _ - I £U ~W LUKLAY, APRIL 28, 1962 I WHITE COLLAR WORKERS: Ryder Tells of New Unionism JOURNALISM: Moore Addresses Convention By HELENE SCHIFF dAswhite collar workers are pushed away from management they are attracted to organiza- tions such as unions that re- establish their sense of importance and individuality. This was the opinion of Prof- fessors Meyer S. Ryder and Fred C. Munson of the Bureau of In- dustrial Relationsas to why white collar employees turn to unions. The question of how many will Name Cain To Aid Udall Prof. Stanley A. Cain, chairman of the conservation department in the natural} resources school, has been named to a five-man ad- visory board to aid Secretary of the Interior Stewart Udall in form- ulating wildlife management pro- grams in public parks and forest reserves. The main area of consideration for the board will be the problem of animal overpopulation in many of the public lands, Prof. Cain said last night. This problem, due mainly to park policies which prohibit hunt- ing, may become more pressing as the department begins to pur- chase more and more land, es- pecially in the West. However, the group also will have to concern itself with aspects such as the protection of under- populated animal species and safety relationships between hu- man beings and the parks' an- imals, Prof. Cain said. $e will travel to Washington tomorrow for the board's first meeting with Udall. Prof. Cain also serves on the National Parks Ad- visory Board in addition to his duties at the University. turn to unions in the future is hard to predict, they agreed. Recent Survey In a recent survey conducted by Clark Caskey, program director of the Bureau of Industrial Rela- tions, managers of 85 Michigan business firms were asked their opinions on whether or not white collar employees will turn to unions in larger numbers in the future than they have in the past. A majority of the managers did not believe white collar unions would gain strength; the minority were of the opinion that these unions would grow. The status of unions was re- cently presented in the February issue of Fortune Magazine, the survey reports. The article states, "if organized labor is to begir' to hold its own, it must organize the white collar group." This pre- sents a dilemma for union leader- ship. Need New Terms "If unions would talk to white collar workers in their terms rather than apply blue collar worker's (men who work on as- sembly lines) concepts then they would probably be more success- ful," Prof. Ryder said. "Proportionally there are more white collar workers than blue collar workers in this country," he noted. These employes have dif- ferent standards than the factory workers and as a consequence they are harder to organize into unions. However, where white, collar workers are in larger enterprises and find they do not have as much individual status, they will look to see what the blue collar unions are doing. This may en- courage their receptivity to or- ganize themselves into unions, he added. Self-Help Phenomenon "The concept of unionism is a self-help phenomenon," Prof. Mun- son said. It is inevitable that white collar workers will realize that by working in a group for the things they want they will be able to obtain them more ef- ficiently and effectively. White collar unions basically have interests compared to blue collar unions. They are more con- cerned with the problem of super- vision rather than the need for increasing salaries.

Ghana post ,i II I Central Michigan University (Continued from Page 1) lecture audiences can be accom- modated.} Maximum utilization of class- room space prevails with classes beginning early and continuing late in the day. Closed circuit tele- vision courses service 1,800 stu- dents. Return to Campus CMU research includesta 'fifth year plan' under which teaching majors extern in their fourth year, returning to campus for comple- tion of their studies and'a degree. The program is designed to let students get a real picture of teaching along with a full year of experience. Through a field service program, the school sends instructors throughout a 38-county area and offers a choice of subjects from freshman English to bus driver training. Travel study programs, offering credit, take students on 10-day bus and train trips to centers of cul- tural and political science. Foust says CMU, with average yearly costs to residents totaling about $965, "is not striving to be- come an elite school--just a good one." The university has requested an operating budget of over $4.3 mil- lion for the coming year. The re- quested appropriation surpasses the previous years, with the great- est increase in the area of salar- ies and wages. CMU lost more faculty members last year than ever before, and it is especially concerned about sal- ary needs at the professor and as- sociate professor levels. Poses Problem An overload situation in classes also poses a problem for the school. Foust estimates that with a larg- er operating budget the school could admit another 350 students without ,unduly overcrowding its facilities. Regardless of any increases, he states, CMU needs a science build- ing to replace a 1916 structure now housing geography, chemistry, bi- ology, physics, and military sci- ence, and two classroom buildings to replace temporary structures. Ghana. To Get ''Legal Aid By PHILIP SUTIN Prof. William B. Harvey of the Law School will spend the next academic year in Ghana as Di- rector of Legal Education and Dean of the Law Faculty at Ghana University. While on leave from the Uni- versity, Prof. Harvey will also sit as an ex officio on the General Legal Council of Ghana which attempts to develop legal education in the country and sets admission and discipline standards for the Ghana bar. "I hope to lay down guiding principles and techniques for legal education which will grow after I am gone," Prof. Harvey declared. During his term he hopes to develop a "good, working library for research and teaching and a set of teaching material particu- larly useful to Ghana." He ex- plained that legal teaching is pri- marily by lecture and that there is little textual and case study suitable for Ghana: "Ideally, this should be a long term job. However, the country does not have the reservoir of trained manpower," he said. Prof. Harvey has been interested in Ghanian legal affairs and will write a book on the evolution of Ghanian legal institutions. "I plan to study these institu- tions as social indices to see the effects society has on the law and legal institutions on society," he explained. By MICHAEL ZWEIG "We can expect big changes in journalism in the future due to the communications revolution," Leslie Moore, executive editor of the Worcester (Mass.) Telegram and Gazette said yesterday in an address to the Michigan Inter- scholastic Press Association con- vention. Speaking to over 800 Michigan high school journalists, Moore stressed the great changes in American journalism in the past three decades. "The press is now more comprehensive, consciencious and constructive than ever. Today more news goes farther and faster than ever before," he said. We are in the midst of a com- munications revolution which will continue to affect journalists and further change the processes and objectives of newspaper reporting, Moore told the young audience. Three Aspects Discussing "Tomorrow's Jour- nalist," Moore analyzed the effect of the communications revolution on three aspects of journalism: the structure and organization of the newspaper, the emphasis of news coverage and the motivation for going into journalism. Modernization of newspaper of- fices makes more and more news available. This excess of news will call for "a new degree of expert- ness in news judgement needed from editors," Moore said. As information becomes more readily available, newspapers will become region-oriented rather than locally oriented, Moore said.

The communica- tions revolution should not change the ownership," Moore asserted.
