Auto Workers Union Leaders Assail Offers DETROIT (UPI) — United Auto Workers officials, with only 13 days to go, seemed gloomy today over chances of avoiding a strike in new contract talks for 550,000 workers at General Motors, Ford and Chyrsler. The UAW leaders branded as inadequate offers made by the big three Monday for new three year contracts to replace those expiring Aug. 31. The contract proposals ,called for higher wages, increased pension benefits, early retirement, longer vacations, an eighth paid holiday, wholly paid insurance benefits and an education plan to pay tuition costs for workers attending school on their own time. Malcolm L. Denis a, Ftard’tez top negotiator, said the offer was “the most generous” ever made to the union. GM Vice President Louis G. Seaton said he was “proud to present” the proposal. But union officials criticize*} nearly every feature. The executive board of Local 600, with 40,000 members at the Ford rouge plant in suburban Dearborn, labeled the plan “comletely inadequate” and rejected it. The offers also seemed certain to be rejected Thursday in Chicago at meetings of the union’s national GM, Ford and Chyrsler councils, made up of 600 local leaders from around the country.

Hoffa Attorneys Planning Appeal CHICAGO (UPI) — Attorneys for Teamster President James R. Hoffa today prepared appeals for Hoffa’s five-year prison sentence and SIO,OOO fine for conspiring to defraud his union’s pension fund. Attorneys for six of Hoffa’s co-defendants also were preparing appeals for their clients who were convicted on fraud charges by the same jury of eight men and four women. Hoffa currently is appealing an eight-year sentence handed down earlier this year at Chattanooga, Tenn., on a jury tampering conviction. U.S. D i st r i c t Court Judge Richard B. Austin ruled Monday that the jury tampering sentence must run consecutively with the fraud sentence. If both appeals fail, Hoffa could serve as much as 13 years in prison. The jury found the seven men guilty on July 26 of defrauding the Teamsters pension fund of $25 million,in loans and of diverting $1.7 million to their own uses. Hoffa was convicted of two counts of wire fraud, one count of mail fraud and one count of conspiracy 1 . But in passing sentence Mcaday, Austin ruled that the five-year sentences on each count would run concurrently.

Barry Goldwater plans a $4.5 million television effort as a central feature of his campaign for the White House, but it probably will not get rolling until late September. Aides gave that word today in elaborating on Goldwater's statement that he will rely on television in his presidential campaign “more than we have ever relied on it before.” There are two reasons for the Republican decision. GOP strategists believe their candidate must be seen by more people than he could possibly see in personal appearances across the nation. They also believe Goldwater has some of the same personal charm that won votes for the late President John F. Kennedy and that he can project it on television screens in suburban living rooms. n • Goldwater's heavy use of television will not begin immediately after formal launching of his campaign, aides said, although there has been spme talk of televising his kickoff speech Sept. 3 at Prescott, Arlz. Use of television • speeches film clips and spot announcements will increase gradually in his campaign to peak just before election day. Flexibility will be retained in the scheduling and the content of television speeches so that an important campaign development, such as an address by President Johnson, can be exploited quickly by a Goldwater appearance. However, the major aim will be, in the words of one GOP strategist, to present the candidate “at the most favorable time, on the most favorable issues, in the most favorable way.”

Says Education Is Issue In Campaign WARSAW, Ind. (UPD— Roger D. Branigin, Democratic nominee for governor. Monday accused Reput Van legislators of whistling “merrily” but failing “to carry a tune” in efforts to expand educational opportunities for Indiana youths. He termed the expansion of educational opportunities “a central issue in this campaign” and said “Providing adequate college facilities is only part of the s 'ate’s post high school educational duty.” “Hoosier youth with talented hands and aptitude for practical science must be trained for an economically useful life,” Branigin said. Branigin said the 1963 Legislature appropriated “a mere $50,000 as a start in developing vocational training beyond high school.” He said in “the face of a

growing and urgent need for expanded post high school education we have gotten little more than talk out of. the Republicandominated legislature.” “This is another example of a Republican Party which whistles merrily but fails to carry a tune,” Branigin said.
