Fraser
conflict of
interest
Scharged
DETROIT (AP)-Some analysts of corporate boards say
United Auto Workers union (UAW) President Douglas
Fraser faces a real conflict of interest in becoming a director
of Chrysler Corp. But the predict that won't stop him from
performing well in the role.
"It's going to be very difficult for him to maintain the ad-
versary relationship, which he has a responsibility to main-
tain," said Professor Miles Mace, who has retired from
teaching at the Harvard Business School and describes him-
self as a "professional director."
"I THINK HE'LL be a damned good director," Mace said.
"It's a fine idea because of his interest and involvement in
monitoring what Chrysler management is doing.
"Where in the world were the old Chrysler directors all
these years? I'm going to write Mr. (Chrysler Chairman
Lee) Iacocca and suggest that Fraser be taken on right away
and not wait until May."
As part of the settlement of a new contract, the financially
desperate No. 3 automaker said on Thursday it would put
Fraser's name before shareholders for election at the May
annual meeting.
NO OTHER MAJOR U.S. corporation has a union official
on its board. But thousands of other directors, notably-
bankers, also are serving two masters.
Another Harvard business professor, Kenneth Andrews,
questioned how Fraser's new position would affect his role as
a bargainer for workers at GM and Ford.
"Nobody is saying he's going to take confidential Chrysler
information. . . and use it in bargaining with GM and Ford,
but ti's the appearance that counts," continued Andrews,
editor of the Harvard Business Review and author of its
"From the Boardroom" column.
FRASER HIMSELF said Thursday he saw no conflict-he
would go thereto "represent the auto workers."
Chrysler's chief negotiator, William O'Brien, said the
company was "delighted" that Fraser would join the board.
The idea of a director representing anybody other than the;
shareholders bothers many observers such as Robert Estes':
retired general counsel of General Electric Corp., and author:
of several articles on directors.
"The law and folk law say the shareholder comes first,
Estes said. But he added that a conflict of interest is "more a..
question of priniciple than a serious operational drawback."

here has heatedly rejected that ex-
planation.
IN WASHINGTON yesterday, U.S.
officials said they had no new infor-
mation on the incident, and as yet no
"corroborative evidence"-such as
radiation counts-even to prove con-
clusively that it was a nuclear blast.
They had no comment on the South
African theory about a submarine ac-
cident.
The Soviet Foreign Ministry in
Moscow, queried by reporters, also had
no official comment. But some Western
military sources, who asked not to be
identified, were highly skeptical of the
South African theory.

From AP and UPI
"Profit isn't the result of ripping off
the public," said a Gulf Oil Corp. ad last
week. But as major oil companies
report combined profits nearly double
those of last year, Americans just don't
believe it.
The 21 large oil companies so far
reporting third quarter results had
combined profits of $5.6 billion - a 92
per cent jump over the $2.9 billion the
same companies earned last year in the
period. Since January, earnings of the
21 companies are up 72 per cent over
the first nine months of 1978.
THE THIRD quarter results include
the 211 per cent gain announced Friday
by Texaco as well as the earlier reports
of a 118 per cent increase by Exxon, 130
per cent by Mobil and 191 per cent by
Standard of Ohio.
Those third-quarter profit sheets
touched off a round of anti-oil rhetoric
on the part of both the president and
congressional supporters of the win-
dfall profits tax.
Congressional leaders saw it as. ad-
ding momentumn to the drive to pass the
tax, now headed for Senate floor action.
House Speaker Thomas O'Neill called.
the profits 'a national disgrace" and
said it should "send a signal to the
Senate" to pass as strong a windfall
profits tax as possible.
OIL COMPANIES have taken pains
to explain the bulk of their increased
profits have come at the expense of
consumers outside the ;United States,.,
that results a year ago weren't so good
so the profits now just look, very hig4
and that earnings on each dollar of..-
sales only amount to six cents or so.
What carries the most weight in the
public mind, however, is that the huge
profits come as Americans havehad to
adjust to record gasoline and winter
heating prices. Gasoline prices rose 3.5
per cent in September to an average of
99.8 cents a gallon, an increase of 31.3 .
cents this year. Home heating oil has.
gone up 30.3 cents to 84.8 cents a gallon:

As their friends and families stood
quietly in the front room, the alumni
wandered through the at first un-
familiar surroundings, their faces
reflecting wonderment and fascination.
Before the game, a subued, formal
atmosphere prevailed as returning
brothers exchanged graduation years,
occupations, and introductions of
families. They took their guests on
house tours, and quietly left for
Michigan Stadium.
Upon returning-under the influence
of a dramatic victory and various
spirits-the brothers were overflowing
with jubiliation. Brothers hugged each
other; laughter filled the house.
"I come back for the comraderie,"
said 'Frank Morrey, a 1964 graduate,
"and to sing the old dirty songs. I'll be
disappointed if nobody comes that can
play those old songs on the piano."

Anybody who's taken a Red Cross swim course knows
how tough it can be. There's a good reason.
We believe drowning is a serious business.
Last year alone, we taught 2,589,203 Americans not
to drown -in the seven different swim courses we offer
all across the country. (Incidentally, most of the teaching -
as with almost everything American Red Cross does -
is done by dedicated volunteers.)
A good many of the youngsters not only are learning
to keep themselves safe. Thousands upon thousands of
them are learning to become lifesavers.
