Authority Of NLRJB To Regulate Ford-Employe Affairs Challenged' Ford Denies All Charges Answering Complaint Of Unfair Labor Practices DETROIT, July 3.-(AP)-The Ford Motor Company challenged tonight the National Labor Relations Board's authority to regulate its relations with employes it described as "en- gaged in local production." Answering an NLRB complaint of unfair labor practices on which a hearing is set for Tuesday, the Ford Company deniedhall its allegations and asserted it should be dismissed. The formal answer signed by Harry Bennet, Ford personnel director, said Ford employes who beat and chased union organizers from plant gates "were at all times acting in self de- Tense" after theunionists had "en- tered into an unlawful conspiracy to trespass and to cause a riot." More than a dozen union members were treated fortinjuries after the fighting which attended distribution of handbills in their campaign to or- ganize the 89,300 employes of the huge Ford plant in suburban Dear- born. The NLRB complaint charged the company with responsibility for what it termed "malicious and brutal assaults." Leaders of the United Automobile workers of America, a CIO affiliate, announced a second attempt to dis- tribute literature at the Ford plant will be made Wednesday morning. Homer Martin, U.A.W. president, ar- ranged tonight to confer with Gov- Local Churches Present Varied jSermons Today Religious Organizations] Invite Participation Of Summer Students Beginning at 8:15 a.m. today and continuing on through until 7:45 p.m., church-goers of Ann Arbor will be kept busy attending the many ser- mons, vesper services and picnics which have been planned for the stu- dents by the many churches and re- ligious organizations of Ann Arbor.

Brauer, minister of the St. Paul's Lutheran Church, will deliver a sermon on "The Chris- tian and His Country" at 8:15 a.m. This church, as usual during the months of July and August, will be affiliated with the Missouri Synod, and the sermons given by the Rev.

The seven-page document filed with the NLRB today by Louis J. Colombo, Ford Company attorney, de- clared there were "lawful reasons" for discharge of numerous employes the board had charged were dis- missed because of union activity. Sources close to the Ford Company have indicated it was prepared to carry to the United States Supreme Court its opposition to regulation by the NLRB. .Today's challenge to the board's authority asserted that the lischarged employes "labored only in the manufacturing department of re- spondent; that they took no part in the transportation to and away from respondent's plant; nor did they par- ticipate in any activity which pre- ceded or followed manufacturing; that none of said employes was en- gaged in interstate or foreign com- merce within the true meaning of the National Labor Relations Act."

I Britain Takes Stand Against Italyin Spain Chamberlain Sees Empire Strong Enough To Halt Disrespect By Others Eden Gives Promise Of Spain'sIntegrity LONDON, July 3.-GP)--British leaders reminded a tense Europe to- day that Britain is rearming to com- pel respect for her rights and inter - ests and that violation of the terri- torial integrity of Spain or free ac- cess to the Mediterranean, included in those interests, would not be tol- erated. Prime Minister Neville Chamber- lain and Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden spoke to garden party audiences of their constituents, but their hear- ers believed they were addressing also the leaders of Italy and Germany. Chamberlain, at Birmingham, de- clared one of his chief aims is to make Britain so strong "that nobody dare treat her with anything but respect." For that reason he would "complete as rapidly as possible" Britain's $7,- 500,000,000 rearmament program. He s'd he faced his responsibilitied "without fear or hesitation." Eden, at Coughton, in Warwick- shire, gave warning that Britain is determined "to maintain the terri- torial integrity of Spain and keep the Mediterranean open as a "main ar- terial road." He uttered an emphatic reminder that the British government cannot remain indifferent "where British in- terests are concerned on the land or sea frontiers of Spain or the trade routes that pass by her." That was interpreted as a refer- ence to the danger of any power, especially Italy, attempting to cut the Mediterranean highway to India and the East. The. foreigin secretary declared that Britain had not and would not mod- ify her time-honored principle that the Mediterranean is a "main arterial road," ifot merely a British shortcut to the Orient. Eden declared Britain has the sup- port of both parties in Spain in her efforts to maintain the integrity of that country.

New Budget Is Twice That Approved By Governor Murphy Friday Board Announces 45 Staff Advancements A total budget of more than eight million dollars, twice the appropria- tion granted to the University, and 45 faculty promotions were approved by the Board of Regents at a special meeting yesterday. The appropriation bill, signed Fri- day by Gov. Frank Murphy,. grants the University $4,673,235.58, while the budget as announced 'yesterday totals $8,901,691.41. Of the total, $2,423,199 represents the budget of the University Hospital, which is a self-supporting institu- tion under the direction of the Board. The remainder, $6,478,492.41, is the budget of the University itself for the school year 1937-1938. The totals show an increase of about $490,000 in the University bud- get over last year's figure, and $119,- 000 for the Hospital. According to Herbert L. Watkins, assistant secre- tary to the University, "while there was flat percentage increase in'sal- aries, in a number of cases handled individually the increases which were made were to recompense for, insofar as it is humanly possible, and to b'ing back in some measure atleast, the percentage cuts instituted during the depression." Both Watkins and Shirley W. Smith, vice-president and secretary of the University said, however, that the budget allowed for no appreciable increase in the numerical size of the faculty, which President Ruthven had earlier asked in his report to ac- company the steadily increasing stu- dent enrollment. The Regents also approved 45 fac- ulty promotions, which follow: Literary College James Murle Cork, from associate professor, to professor of physics; Ora Stanley Duffendack, from asso- ciate professor, to professor of physics; Howard Sylvester Ellis, from associate professor to professor of French; Thomas Seward Lovering, from associate professor, to profes- sor of economic geology; Charles An- thony Knudson, from assistant pro- fessor, to professor of French; Pres- ton Williani Slosson, from associate professor, to professor of history. Leigh Charles Anderson, from as- sistant professor, to associate profes- sor of organic chemistry; Arthur Her- bert Copeland, from assistant profes- sor, to associate professor of mathe- matics; Frank Egbert Eggleton, from assistant professor, to associate pro- fessor of zoology; Howard Meredith (Continued on Page 3) Six Graduates HiredAs Detroit Police Women.
