FALL TERM OF THE

ICHAVEZ SUCCESS:
Lettuce grower to negotiate
with farm workers' union

ICC calls
railroads
to account

A

PROGRAM IN JEWISH STUDIES

SALINAS, Calif. W) - C e s a r
Chavez' United Farm Workers Or-
ganizing Committee has scored a
second major breakthrough in an
interunion struggle t h a t has
sharply curtailed production in
the nation's "salad bowln"
Freshpict Foods, Inc. announc-
ed Friday it is canceling its con-
tract with the Teamsters Union
and will begin negotiations with
UFWOC. UFWOC claims support
of 90 per cent of the workers in
the 100-mile-long Salinas Valley,
which grows 90 per cent of the
nation's head lettuce.
Inter Harvest Co., the majorl

U.S. lettuce producer, h a d an-
nounced earlier this week it was
beginning talks to switch its un-
ion agreements from the Team-
sters to UFWOC. Other pickets
have kept Inter Harvest idle, how-
ever.
In Los Angeles, William R. Tin-
cher, b o a r d chairman of Purex
Corp., Lt d., parent company of
Freshpict, said negotiations with
Chavez' union "would begin im-
mediately with no conditions at-
tached."
Tincher said that if negotia-
tions proceed in good faith "the
great majority of growers a n d

shippers in Salinas will join Pu-
rex in granting recognition to
UFWOC-AFL-CIO and in imme-
diate negotiations."
The contention was denied by
Les Hubbard, spokesman for the
Salinas Valley Growers, Shippers
and Vegetable Association.
The P rex "estimate of the sit-
uation is wrong," he said. "There
w a s a meeting of growers,...
there is no thought of joining'
Freshpict in their negotiations."
Teamsters supporters, including
farmers and growers, picketed In-
ter' Harvest Friday and blocked
harvesting and marketing of-crops
to protest the negotiations with
UFWOC. The pickets said t h e y
had no union affiliation, but
Teamsters drivers refused to cross
the picket lines.

" THE HASSIDIC VIEW ON THE EXISTENCE AND PURPOSE OF THE UNIVERSE
An introduction to Hassidic philosophy."Discusses the role of the Jew in the world, and his relation to the
ultimate unity of the spiritual and the material in the Ein Sof, the wellspring of all beginning. Text: Col-
lected Sayings (Tanya) of Rabbi Schneur Zalman.

WASHINGTON (R) - For the
first time, the nation's railroads
have been ordered to disclose the
extent to which they control, or
are controlled byCindustrial con-
3glomerates.
The Interstate Commerce Comn-
nission, issuing the order as part
of a railroad freight rate case on
Friday, said the information re-
quired will give the ICC its first
' clear picture of the railroads'
corporate structures.
While the order does not require
Erailroads to disclose names of
stockholders, it does call for re-
vealing who owns them and who
they own. The information, to
cover the calendar year 1969,
must be submitted by Nov. 2.
Under the order, Class 1 rail-
roads must disclose:
-Names of affiliated companies
and the amount and percentage of
their gross income obtained from
the roa -
the railroad.
-Whether affiliated companies,
partnerships or individuals con-
trol the railroad o whether t he
railroads control the affiliates.
-Contracts between railroads
and affiliated companies.
-Amount paid by affiliates to
railroad officers, owners, or their
I near relatives, divided between
that paid for services and that
I paid in dividends.
-A statement of income f o r
each affiliate with which a rail-
road had transactions during cal-
endar year 1969

Because of the week-old strike
by UFWOC, growers said, lettuce
still is being' shipped in limited
volume. Thousands of a c r e s of
ripe lettuce and other vegetables
were withering in untended fields.
The Teamsters have agreed to
let UFWOC have full jurisdiction
over field hands, but growers re-
fused to rescind contracts signed
with Teamsters the month before.
Some200 growers formed a sol-
id front.
