Mi:KPHY HAS HOPES (Continued From Fnue One)

today—on the question of exclusive bargaining rights. Nothing but a “break’’ was expected to keep the conference from collapse, although none of the parties wished to take the onus for failure. In this was Murphy’s chief hope of maintaining I

the continuity of negotiations.

For more than 10 hours the three men who spoke for the automobile company and the three who spoke i tor the union were closeted with the I

governor.

Time and again during the long day it was rumored that a statement | was near, that collapse was at hand.' Still the meeting dragged on. When ! he called a three-hour respite at 4 p. m.. Murphy announced they would meet “for a short time" in the eve-

ning.

Murphy was tired when he made! Corps No. 23 will meet Wednesday

There was > sufficiently low temperature to , l cause a frozen crust to form where 'there was weakness in the surface, and traffic was thus carried over those locations instead of going <lown through the surfacing materj Uj\.

WASHINGTON INSTITUTE At. the Washington township farmers’ institute, held Monday in the school house at Pleasant Garden, them was an attendance of approxlrrultely fifty farmers, and the program and exhibits were much enjoyed. Officers were elected as follows: president, Clyde Volkers; secretarytreasurer, Charles D. Harris; Among the prize winners were Timothy "ond. Kffio Herbert and Herschel i lough.

negotiation had been in session scarcely an hour when Donaldson Brown, G. M. finance chairman and son-in-law of T. Coleman Du Pont of the family which holds the controlling stock interest in General Motors, burst out of the conference. He hurried to the big gray stone General Motors building and soon the mimeograph machines in the publicity offices began humming. While the conference continued at recorder's court a mile away, newspapermen were summoned. At 11 t). m. they were handed a four page statement. Summarized, it said: 1. Negotiations “have not yet resulted In the solution of the difticulty." 2. Only because of the request of President Roosevelt did the company swallow Its opposition to meeting the union while sit-down strikers occupied Its plants at Flint. 3. The sit-down strikers are In defiance of “law and order and to the authority of the state which those charged with authority must deal with according to their responsibili-

ties.”

4. The company had received an offer from John L. Lewis union chief to put the sit-down strikers back to work if the company would surrender on union recognition. 5. The union’s right to be sole bargainer was the only issue discussed in the conferences. 6. The company replied that it “connot subscribe to such coercion and agree to deliver its workers into such bondage." 7. The company was willing that the union represent its own membership and suggested that Murphy supervise a ballot and determine the number of workers in General Motors plants who wished the U. A. W. A. to speak for them in negotiations on wages, hours, and working condi-

tions.

8. The company reiterated its readiness to “respond to an early call by him (Murphy) to resume conferences if in his Judgment any good could result therefrom.” At the very momept this statement was issued Mutphy was in the 19 by 12 legal chamber in conference with William S. Knudaen and John Tliomaa Smith of the General Motors Corporation and John L. Lewis, Wyndham Mortimer, and Lee Pressman of the union. It was not until two hours and 15 minutes later that the conference doors opened. The governor strode to the Judge’s dais of the adjacent courtroom, rested on his folded arms and said hoarsely: ‘The conference will reconvene at 8:30 tonight.”

RECITAL TONIGHT Hetman Berg, violinist, and Robert Sheldon, pianist, both of the faculty of the DePauw School of Music, will present a recital in Meharry hall of East College at 8 o’clock this evening. The program will consist of three sonatas. The first is in ultra-modern style and was written by Carlos Chavez, young Mexican composer. The second is the Franck sonata, and the third was composed by Richard Strauss. The Strauss sonata makes extreme technical demands for both pianist and violinist, and is particularly beautiful.

(('ontinned From Pmce One) will be on a merit basis within the next year. The bill probably will be killed in some manner because of the almost unanimous opposition of state politicians and payrollers. Ample indication has been given that the administration proposes to behead most of the 361 bills introduced so far. Edward Stein, Bloomfield, speaker of the house, yesterday went so far as to describe many proposals as "tripe” in a brief speech to the house. This may slow up presentation of “pet” bills to impress local constituents and hasten killing of those already on file and in committee. Meanwhile, action will be pressed on main administration proposals including: gross income tax and unemployment compensation revision, introduced yesterday; creation of a state labor department; the safety measures; recodification of the conservation laws; reassessment of real estate; increase in the state’s share of teachers’ salary payments; and others of lesser importance. The safety bills will include: compulsory reporting of all accidents to the safety department; examination of drivers before issuance of a license; reduction of penalties for drunken driving on the first offense and increasing them for additional i fftnses; allowing cities to have compulsory automobile inspection; increase of the state highway police force; and other measures for traffic control to facilitate safety regulations. Also to be included in the safety program will be proposals to tax aut 'inChile trailers and to allow coopetation with other states in uniform legislation for trailer regulation.
