Westinghouse, Sylvania and hun- < dreds of independent manufacturers in United States and Canada. More than 300 delegates will attend the convention to formulate policies and programs for the coming year. This being an election year, plans for political atcion will have an irhportant place on the agenda. The independent UE has traditionally taken an independent political role and the international union has not in the past several years endorsed candidates of either party. The union points out, however, that the candidacy of Barry* Goldwater poses a tremendous threat to labor, peace, civil rights, and all economic and social progress. The annual report of the UE international officers to the convention states: "The dangers facing the American people as the result of the Republican convention, the candidates that the convention nominated, and the platform it adopted are quite clear.” , ¥ M The officers cautioti, however, that Goldwater will try to push the administration further to the right and that he labor move-. ment must use all its influence to “prevent the Democratic party and its presidential candidate from placating and giving ground to the Goldwater forces.” While supporting the objectives of the “war on poverty,” the UE sees the administration’s present program as woefully inadequate to solve the economic needs of the country. UE calls for amendment of the fair labor standards- act to reduce the work week to 35 hours; removal of all taxes on workers whose income is below $6,000; and abandonment of the administration's “wage guide lines.” The convention will hammer put a program to win these economic aims at the gargaining table, to broaden and step up its organizing efforts, and top priority will also be given to develop a program to gain full equality for all Americans. The annual election- of international officers will be held during the Wednesday afternoon session.
