[FORD TO EXTEND

Checkoff to Be to Be Applied to Bomber Employees Near Ypsilanti.

DETROIT, Dec. 12 (U. P.).—An agreement under which provisions of the Ford Motor Company's historic union shop checkoff contract with the United Automobile Workers (C. I. O) would be extended to employees of the firm's vast $58 500,000 bomber plant near Ypsilanti, Mich., was disclosed today. Ford Personnel Director Harry Bennett said no new contract would be required but that we 60,000 to 70,000 men eventually to be employed at the plant will be blanketed under the existin agrees ment with the U. A. W-C. L

for obtaining jurisdiction bomber plant employees. Extension of the agreement which already embraces 120,000 Ford workers throughout the coun] try followed disclosure by C. I. O. President Philip Murray last month | that he had conferred with Mr. Bennett and other Ford officials on | the matter during the C. I. O. na-| tional convention.

Production in Spring

The Ford bomber plant is ex- | pected to swing into production next spring on complete consolidated B-24 bombers, sub-assemblies and parts under government contracts exceeding $500,000,000. Some machinery already kas been installed and tool and die makers have been transferred to the plant from the |

overt

Rouge. “Virtually all of the men to be employed at the bomber plant will be transferred from the Rouge] plant,” Mr. Bennett said. “The bomber plant eventually will absorb more than half of the Rouge workers.”

Bomber Every Hour

Although present orders call for ford to tum out 75 completed bombers and 100 complete subassembles per month, they are expected to be stepped up consider- | ably in view of the war against Japan, Germany and Italy. The bomber plant, which with the airport cover 975 acres, can be geared to build one giant four-motored | bomber every hour. Ford engineers are employing production methods new to the aircraft industry on the bomber pro- |
