Wage Conflict

fuel to the flames of current and
impending labor disputes,and I
neither industry or labor should
object very strenuously to this
mild dosage of government inter-
vention.
"The fact-finders, however, need
clearer leadIs on current national la-
bor policy than are now available, if
they are not to create unnecessary
confusion by conflicting recommen-_
dations. The government should, for
example, consider whether it really
wants to encourage the nation that'
the individual company's wage rates
should depend primarily on its own
financial position; and the govern-
ment should also make more widely
understood what sorts of voluntary
and involuntary wage increases may
lead to price ceiling changes..
"Of course, the fundamental anti-
inflation force is increase of produc-
tioh and a few words may here be
added on the outlook for production.
There is much force in the familiar
arguments that a high volume of
operations permits substantial in-
creases in wage rates without neces-
sitating increase in prices or sacri-
fices of reasonable profits. Other fa-
vorable factors include recent indi-
cations, e. g. in the Kaiser-Frazer-
UAW contract and in the Ford Motor
negotiations with the Union, that un-
ions may settle for rewards contin-
gent on increasesof output and de-
creases of wildcat strikes.
"On the less favorable side of the
picture, however, are these con-
siderations: In addition totnuier-
ous other uncertainties, the em-
ployer has to face the prospect
that spreading wage disputes will
not only interrupt his operation
but will also raise his costs, for ma-
terials, labor, and all else. (Volun-
tary wage increases also spread rip-
ples of cost advances, as do like-
wise wage advances due to govern-
ment policies, such as revision of
legal minimum wages.)
"Taking into account both favor-
able and unfavorable factors, it seems
probable that so long as price con-
trols are continued, individual ceil-
ings are likely to be raised here and
there; and such increases may not,
for a while, be offset by competitive
price declines or lowered legal ceil-
ings. Expectation that living costs
will rise further within the year is
doubtless one reason why the unions
ask for substantial wage rate in-
creases now.
"Thus, although extension of price
controls plus the further spread of
wage advances now in prospect, as in-
fluenced by fact-finding boards, can
scarcely afford guarantees against
any further inflation, they do appear
to be key items for moderating the
post-war boom, and hence for mini-
mizing this boom's reaction."
Harvard Report
To Be Discussed'
In connection with proposed
changes in the literary college cur-
riculum, the Harvard Report, "Gen-
eral Education in a Free Society,"

will be the discussion topic of the
American Association of University
Professors Thursday at the Union.
Members will meet at 6:15 p.m. for
dinner in the lunchroom of the Fac-,
ulty Club.
A panel consisting of Profs. Wil-
lard C. Olson, William Frankena,
Norman E. Nelson, Mischa Titiev,
William C. Trow, and Dean Erich A.
Walter will present and discuss the
topic. The report is the subjectof
the leading .article in the winter is-
sue of the A.A.U.P. "Bulletin."
Meat Strike Affects
Army Chow Supply
WASHINGTON, Jan. 21, (P)-The
meat strike is beginning to be noticed
in the army's chow, overseas and at
home.
War Department officials said to-
day that in Europe, the Pacific and
at posts in the United States, mess
sergeants had started serving corned

The general consensus of men liv-
ing in the huge gymnasium-bedroom,
which is furnished with punching
bags, basketball, backboards and
trapeze bars, is that they've lived
in much worse conditions during the
past few years and don't mind too
much, as long as the arrangement is
only temporary.
Object To Study Facilities
Chief objections to living in the
fleldhouse are the lack of toilet and
study facilities. There are only 13
lavatories for shaving and washing
available for the 387 men and four
rooms for studying at night. Most of
them do their home work in their
double-deck beds.
Only one veteran out of 20 inter-
viewed actually was dissatisfied. He
was William H. Moore, discharged
A.A.F. flight officer fromh Traverse
City. Moore said the housing situa-
tion was so "confusing" that he was
returning home and would return to
M.S.C. next fall "when things are
more settled."
Conditions Similar To Army
Here are some typical comments:
Henry D. Bowen, 24, Adrian, a for-
mer A.A.F. technical sergeant: "Yes,
the conditions here are similar to
those in the Army, although the feel-
ing of being forced to live under
these conditions is gone. We don't
have to stay if we don't like it. As
for me, I'm sure the living conditions'
won't hamper my getting an educa-
tion."
Philip R. Fyvie, 23, Newberry, a
former Marine corporal (married);
"I'm a Marine who spent three years
overseas where living conditions were
rough, but expected to be. Here in
Jenison Fieldhouse, they're rough,
period."
Gary Schmidt,. Bay City, married
and a former A.A.F. sergeant: "I
don't think the housing situation
should in any way affect our educa-
tion. Of course, it's a little uncom-
fortable, but we didn't expect maid
service."
Kaiser Plans
Factory Colony
Homes To Be Built
Near Willow Run Plant
By The Associated Press
NEW YORK, Jan. 21-Plans for
the construction of a community of
homes "within walking distance" of
the huge Willow Run factory near
Ypsilanti, Mich., were revealed in an
interview today by Henry J. Kaiser,
board chairman of the newly-formed
Kaiser-Frazer Corporation.
Kaiser said approximately 400 acres
if land near the former Ford Bomber
Plant have been placed under option.
The land is west of the plant, but
Kaiser said some construction would
-e undertaken east of the factory, if
necessary.
"We have no intention of ruining
the value of existing property in the
Willow Run area," Kaiser said. "But
7ou know that before you can get
the right kind of workmen in your
plants, you have to provied them with
homes."
He would not estimate the probable
-ost of the project.
Willow Run, hee said, will be hand-
led by Kaiser Community Homes, Inc.
which already has built several thous-
and dwellings in California where
Kaiser has shipbuilding and steel
interests.
No financial tieup will be made
with the Kaiser-Frazer Corporation,
Kaiser explained.
Greek Rightists
Kill Hostages
ATHENS, Jan. 21-(A)-Fourteen-

hostages have been killed by mem-
bers of an extreme right wing group
who have barricaded themselves in a
mountain village 10 miles northwest
of Kalamai (Kalamata) after reject-
ing a surrender ultimatum, the Greek
government said tonight.
The ultimatum gave the insurgents
until 4 p.m., tomorrow to surrender
or be attacked by government troops.
In Kalamai itself, order was re-
stored fully, the government said,
after the arrival of substantial rein-
forcements, but skirmishing was re-
ported on the outskirts of the city
between government forces and rebel
monarchist groups.
Minister of public order Stamktfis
Merkouris ordered troops and gen-
darmerie to rescue 150 hostages he
said were held in the barricaded
mountain position by the right wing
insurgents.

CIO Meeting
To Settle Flint
School Dispute
By The Associated Press
FLINT, Mich., Jan. 21-Local 21 of
the CIO State, County and Municipal
Workers Union was scheduled to meet
tonight and consider a Board of Edu-
cational proposal for final settlement
of a labor dispute which last .week
closed 43 of the city's 44 schools.
The proposal was approved by the
local's Strike Committee which met
with the School Board shortly after
27,000 students returned to their
classrooms and Union maintenance
workers went back to their jobs under
an "armistice" agreement with the
Board.
The "armistice," which provided
that the strikers drop all their de-
mands except a 10-cent hourly wage
boost, was rejected by the Board
which contended it could not consider
a raise for maintenance workersj
alone when other school employes
were underpaid.
Wermuth To Seek

Pre- W r ermain,. Lctatorship

Charging that communist parties
throughout the world "always keep
time by the Kremlin clock," William
Henry Chamberlin asserted in an in-
terview yesterday that the danger of
a clash between the United States
and Russia lies in the Soviet's use of
"methods disquietingly like those of
Hitler."
Possibility of a conflict springs not
so much from idealogical differences
as from Russia's "bad faith in keep-
ing agreements" and from her use ofj
"Moscow - dominated communist

groups for infiltration in other coun-
tries," Chamberlin said.
Explaining the Soviet's policy in
China, Chamberlin said that "where
we have been fairly firm, Russia is
more moderate." They are anxious
to avoid a serious clash with the
United States, he said.
"On any count, Russia is as much a
dictatorship as Germany before the
war," he stated. Our propaganda has
gone too far in praising Russia, he
charged, pointing out that the first
requirement in our foreign policy is
truth.
