: State Oil Workers i ; Expect To Strike j Doubt Settlement Os Wage Dispute [i Hammond, Ind., March 4.—-(UP) >■ ’—Spokesmen for about 14,000 oil workers In the northwestern Indiana refinery area said today they jAreVe looking tp Washington negotiations to determine whether they will walk out with oil workers elsewhere on March 10 in a strike against the nation’s oil industries. The spokesmen and leaders of union locals, CfO, AFL and Independent, professed little optimism arid said they did not believe that the oil Industry would meet tbeir general demands fori a 25 cent hourly. Wage increase. O. A. Knight, president of the CIO oil workers international, said during a visit here last weekend that ‘•everything'' in the Chicago hrba Would “go dpWm” In eVen a Strike was called. ; ! Presumably Knight spoke only for those plants which'have contracts with the CIO, although all three major groups Os Workers have coordinated their activities in seeking their wage demands. The big Standard -Oil of Indiana refinery at Whiting has a contract with the independent central 4tq£es petroleum union. The pipelines which feed the definery generally are manned by CIO! workers., and presumably in case of a strike the movement of crude oil into the refinery through the pipelines Would be halted, eyen if the refinery workers themselves did not walk out. Originally, the. oil workers walkout was set to? Match 3, but the deadline was postponed a week at fedieral mediator Cyrus Ching’s request. / Korea last Novembejr. ’i “j love him," she :said, "and he lovys me too.

M I U ■ ■ ■ Steelworkers Seek Wage Hike Al AltM Less Than Decent Wage Paid, Charge Washington, March 4;—(UP)— The CIO Steelworkers today supported their bid for a substantial wage increase from the Aluminum Co. of America with the claim that the company pays less than a “decent" wage to 85 percent of its workers. The union said the average wage of the 22.000 Alcoa workers it represent* ranges from $8 to >l3 a week less than ,“the modest weekly budget- which the bureau of labor statistics has found is necessary to maintain a decent standard of living.” The bureau’s budget totalled $79.a week Tor a family of sou?. The figures were citedj to a special wage Stabilization, board panel named to investigate the dispute that; led a Strike threat last month by tjbe union. The union Is demanding an 18 hourly increase and other benefits—the same demands ii has made on the steel industry. Marvin Miller of the Steelworkers research department listed wage scales at; Alcoa plants which, he said,, were “according to hourly rate and Incentive earnings data supplied by the; company." Miller said 61 percent of the Alcoa workeris are paid less than $1.5(1 an holur, with startipg rates; as low as $1.09. For Instance, he said.; only three workersoouzost z of 4.600 at the New Kensington, Pa., plant are paid, the maximum $2.16 an hour. Wage board regulations would permit the union to get 16 cents au hour. Miller said. He added that the ’‘rntire amount could be met out <K the wide margin of ‘excess’ profits and still leave the company earning pnough prbfits that it would have jtp pay a sizable excess profits tak.”i Lenten Service Ats Reformed Church; The second in the series of midweek Lent eb worship services will be held at Trinity Evangelical United Rrethren church Wednesday evening at 7 o’clock.
