UAW, GM AGREE
Record strike breaks

CINCINNATI, Ohio (AP) - The
longest strike ever m o u n t e d
against General Motors 'ended last
night with ratification of a new
contract by United Auto Workers
members from the General Motors
Assembly Division plant (GMAD)
in suburban Norwood, Ohio.
The marathon strike ended with
union officials posting final results
of secret balloting on the front
door of the UAW Locale 674 head-
quarters.
The new contract was ratified by
a 74-26 per cent margin among the
plant's nonskilled workers and by
a 94-6 per cent margin among
skilled workers.
Union officials noted the oppo-
sition vote in the rnonskilled clas-
sification was, "very high."

Even as the votes were counted,
UAW President Leonatd Woodcock
joined GMAD workers in; criticiz-
ing the contract proposal.
"The tragedy of the, Norwood
strike," Woodcock said in Detroit,
"is the workers are going to wind
up exactly where they began."
Woodcock said the UAW's GM
council will meet indemergency
session in Detroit Friday to plan
strategy for future negotiations
with the automaker.
Most local workers who would
comment criticized the new con-
tract after casting secret ballots,
but said they nevertheless voted
for it.
A majority vote was needed for
ratification.
"This whole thing - the con-
tract - was a joke," said one

worker. "But yes," he said, "I!
voted for it. I need a job."
Richard Minton, Local 674, pres-
ident, said "to me the contract is
a major victory. We got all our
major grievances."
Minton said, however, that the
international union had agreed to
drop a number of grievances over
alleged assembly line speedup and
general production standards.
He said these grievances con-
cerned production of 1972-model
automobiles.
"If we go back and things are
not any bet'ter," he said, "then
we're right back where we started.
We're in trouble."
He said GM had not been able
to specify its projected assem-
bly line speed.

The only funds currently avail-I
able are five per cent of the fran-i
chise fee paid to the city by the
company, after the commission has
taken out its expenses, leaving
virtually nothing. Ninety-five per
cent of the remainder goes into a!
public housing fund.
Helen Love, Michigan Cable TV's
community programming coordi-
nator, has suggested that interest-
ed groups seek funding from foun-
dations to set up their own studios{
to produce programs. Such a set-'
up would cost about $5,000, she
says.
The Cablecasting Commission,
which makes all decisions on the'
public access channels, is present-
ly doing nothing to help finance
community access to these chan-
nels.
Its chairman, Sidney Winter, says
that under FCC regulations Mich-
igan Cable TV has a right to
charge for its services.
It needs to. It has taken several
years to raise the necessary fund-
ing, .including more than $500,000
for initial hardware. Thus the first
franchise owners, a group of local!
community leaders, ran into fi-'
nancial problems very early and
had to bring in out-of-state busi-,
nessmen to get the operation
started.
