"Henry, to keep the unions out. , is getting ready to announce a wage scale and bless a chart of

_____, i ■_ - | working conditions which will ' boost the ante far above anything j which the C. i. O. (committee for industrial organization) has won from General Motors or Chrysler. "The advance information is in I direct line with the Ford tactics in the past. Ford, a quarter of a een- , tury ago. startled American industry when he announced his >5-a-day minimum wage for every worker. "If the 73-year-old auto magnate decides to pay every man at least >lO a day there will be very few objections. And that, according to Ford men here, is just what Henry intends to do. “He will give the boys more money than the union leaders ever asked for, meet with spokesmen of : employes and adjust every grievance to the satisfaction of the workers, but never recognize the union or give in to the closed shop."
