Truman And Labor Secretary To Meet Secretary Os Labor Back From Vacation Washington, June 28.—(UP)— President Truman today scheduled a conference with secretary of labor Lewi* B. Bchwellenbach. who returned last night from a monthlong business and vacation trip to Seattle and Alaska. There wa« some belief that the conference may also deal with the month-old public rift Imtween Mr. Truman and Schwelicnbach on whether the government should seize nine farm equipment plants to end a prolonged labor dispute. Seven of the plants are operated by Allis-Chalmers Co. and two by the J I. Case Co. S* hwelleubach told teportera a month ago that he would recommend federal seizure of the companies unless they mado a "real effort" within a week to settle their wage fight with three CIO unions. He said that the two managements failed to send top representative* into negotiation)) with the united automobile work*-r*i, united electrical workers and united farm equipment workers Subsequently, Schwellenbach recommended seizure to the white house and then left for the international labor organization's conference on seamen's wages at Seattle. He returned last night. How* ver, duiitig his absence Mr. Tytman has issued no seizure order. He told his new* conference yesterday that seizure lx under conxidersti m but he still hoped for a settlement without taking that step. The companies, union* and farm groups have conducted a running verbal fight on the Trutnan-Schwel-lenbach split on handling the dispute. The strikes involve 42.0)0 work- * rx and have been in progrefM one to six months. The companies havo refused to grant uni m demands for a wage increase of 18'4 cents per hour, higher piece rates, union security and seniority. q Establish Weather Base In Greenland Washington, June 28 — (UP) Denmark has agreed to let the U. 8. weather bureau establish a civilian weather station in the northwestern part of Greenland.
