Voting not over yet but UAW, Chrysler renew contract talks The Michigan Daily-Sunday, October 10, 1982-Page 3 Complaints stack up at new reserve desk From AP and UPI DETROIT - Voting on the tentative contract between the United Auto Workers union and Chrysler Corp. is scheduled to resume tomorrow in the face of a 2-1 nationwide rejection margin and a promise from Chrysler to consider returning to the bargaining table.. UAW President Douglas Fraser, who had kept silent during the early days of voting, conceded Friday the contract for production workers would be rejected and the union was preparing to return to the bargaining table. "I THINK it's clear that the agreement that was negotiated is far below the expectation of the Chrysler workers," Fraser said. "The fact of the matter is that the Chrysler workers rejected the agreement." He said the rank-and-file voting would be completed anyway, with the union's 10-member rank-and-file bargaining committee convening after the last local ratification meeting Thur- sday to make plans to resume bargaining. He' said "a strike is not out of the question" if worker demands for an immediate wage increase are not met, but he refused to predict there would be a walkout. Fraser said he thought Chrysler Chairman Lee Iacocca contributed to the demise of the contract by "boasting about that $1 billion" in company assets. 'I don't blame the Chrysler workers," he said. "Hell, they were told there's a big pot of gold there." Sundey Highlight Supporters of the Nuclear Weapons Freeze are out in force today. Oregon Republican Sen.

Fraser ... a strike is possible Unions, Democrats to use jobless rate against Reagan By MATTHEW HENEHAN The goal was to save money and space, but the consolidation of the Graduate and Undergraduate Library reserve desks this year has prompted tales of woe from disgruntled professors and students. Long lines, missing books, and tight seating space have plagued the new reserve desk on the third floor iof the Undergraduate Library. "IT'S A HASSLE, I usually wait about 15 or 20 minutes in line," said one political science student. And sometimes, professors say, the wait is in vain, as books which were previously on reserve in the Graduate Library have not yet been transferred to the UGLI. "Students really have to scurry around to get their reading done," said Prof. Ken Langten, who teaches a graduate Political science course. DAVE NORDEN, director of the Un- dergraduate Library, explained that the cause of many of the problems is the University-wide hiring freeze which began in August. "The freeze just couldn't have come at a worse time for us," he said. "We had 25 percent more workload and no in- crease in staff." When the freeze was announced, the reserve desk still had one full-time position to fill, and students had to be' hired on a part-time basis to put out the course reading lists for the new system.- Norden said the merger of the reser- ve desks freed over 100 desks on the fir- st floor of the library, but students say they still are pinched for space. "THE BIGGEST problem isn't the long wait at the reserve desk, it's just that there is nowhere to read. There are no seats at all," one graduate student said. Senior Karen Williams agreed: '-'I think it is a lot more crowded this year. you have to get here by about 6:30 p.m. to get a seat." Those long lines at the reserve desk ;may be diminishing, as the hiring freeze was lifted Monday. Library Director Dave Norden, now interviewing for the vacant position, said "we'll be in better shape for winter term." (Continued from Page 1) For millions of American blue-collar workers, dwindling job opportunities will be a grim reality long after the election or an economic recovery, private business analysts say. WHILE THESE analysts gave varying predictions of when a business turnaround will occur, they agreed that millions of jobs in such industries as auto, steel and rubber have been lost forever. For the last 10 years, they said, the American economy has been changing from reliance on the basic heavy manufacturing industries, which held sway in an earlier era, to dependency on high-technology goods and services. "There won't be a basic restoration of the jobs lost in heavy manufacturing," asserted Allen Sinai, vice president and chief economist of Data Resources, Inc., a Lexington, Mass.-based forecasting firm. Joel Popkin, a Washington economist, said employment oppor- tunities will remain depressed long af- ter a, business recovery "for those blue-collar workers in the manufacturing sector. "It seems to me that what's happen- ding in the economy right now is a secular trend that will lead the U.S. out of the production of less sophisticated manufacturing goods," Popkin said. "It's an adjustment to a structural change that is taking place in the economy." Support the March of Dimes, A BIRTH DEFECTS FOUNOATION I . mmommlim Still/Ann Arbor's LOWEST Copy, Prices!
