DETROIT, April 23—The
CIO United Auto Workers* 200-
man national General Motors
council voted unanimously
Wednesday to demand from the
corporation a straight 15-cent
hourly wage Increase without
any strings attached.
General Motors had turned down
the 15-cent union proposal following a
24 • hour extraordinary negotiating
session Tuesday night.
The UAW'a top negotiators wtU take
the council's ultimatum back to an-
other conference with the corporation
late Wednesday.
Rejection of General Motors' latest
offer of 11(4 cents hourly wage hike
and an additional 3*4 cents for six
annual holidays pay came in a voice
vote by the national council after
President Walter P. Reuther strongly
recommended that action.
Reuther reiterated that the auto
workers should press for a straight 15
cents increase without General Motors
''telling us how we should spend it.'*
The union made two proposals to
General Moton Tuesday night in ad-
dition to the flat 15-cent hourly raise
and the corporation rejected all of
them. -
Reuther denounced the CIO United
Electrical Workers and United Rubber
Workers for signing contracts with
GM on the basis of the corporation's
latest offer to the auto worken. The
electrical workers accepted an increase
of 18(4 cents a year ago in the midst
of the 113-day GM strike, a figure
subsequently accepted by the
workers.

A FTER Wednesday morning.
** there isn’t much more
Fritz T. Kiesling expects out of
life. After all, when a fellow is
reunited with his mother after
a separation of nearly 30 yean,
what more could he expect?
Kiesling without a doubt was the
happiest man in the world Wednes-
day morning when his mother. Mrs.
Austin Farnsworth. Los Angeles,
stepped off an airliner at Municipal
airport and walked straight into hla
arms.
Kiesling and his mother became
separated when he waa a baby, and
only last week did they finally locate
each other. A aeries of letters and
telegrams followed, and Wednesday
morning Kieslings fondest dream
was realised.
The young airforce veteran had
been walking on clouds ever since
the [ostman delivered him that air-
mail. special delivery tetter last week
that told him hla search was over.

Council sentiment on the measure
was expressed in response to an indi-
vidual poll made by Mayor Street with
all members present.
Each councilman, in turn, declared
he favored legislation giving people
the right to s»y whether or not they

Mayor Explains Bill
“That's all the bill provides." Street
said. "The council and manager have
analysed every possible source of rev-
enue needed, not only to operate and
maintain the services we have effi-
ciently, but also to offer the promise
that revenues will be available to
maintain and operate all the new Im-
provements we are adding under the
815 millions bond issue program **
Consensus of council members was
that unless the additional revenue can
be made available, no new improve-
ments can be made here without bond
issues, and “that route puts the whole

found it harder and harder to con-
centrate on anything but Wednesday
morning.
Although he didn’t remember see-
ing his mother, he spotted her the
minute she stepped on the ramp at
the airport. She. in turn, recog-
nized her son, and ran straight into
his arms.
The special delivery letter last
week contained a number of small
snapshots of Mrs. Farnsworth, and
Fritz spent all his spare time study-
ing the pictures. He even put them
under a microscope so he could
study the facial features.

searching the sky for planes, and
even the vagrant clouds that swept
over the city Wednesday morning
City council members
Wednesday unanimously en-
dorsed proposed legislation
• giving the people here the

want a municipal sales tax not
exceeding 1 percent.
While members of the legisla-

cerning it, various groups inter-
ested In such municipal matters
as library expansion, recreation
and park development, river-

question of locating the fair-

American officials Raid
Wednesday it appeared that
all hope of completing an
Austrian peace treaty in
Moscow is gone and that the

foreign ministers here prob-

night or Thursday.
While still (ranting the chance
of s “miracle" to oreak up the
deadlock on key issues, in-
formants said ths best opinion
now, baaed on results of three
secret sessions held Monday and
Tuesday, is that the Austrian
peace pact Is "out the window’’
for the present.

NEWBURYPORT, Mass., April 23—(/P\— A New Eng-

a half-dozen other communities prepared to join with this
city in "rolling bick" prices.
The Clover Parm chain—128 independently-owned stores
in Massachusetts, Vermont and New Hampshire—announced
effective immediately the price cut on 150 Items.
Buyers' response to a general 10 percent price cut in New

cil, said that inqutriiea on details of
how the plan worked came from An-
sonia. Conn., and Brattleboro. Vt.—
both cities indicating^ they were ready
to embark on the same experiment.
The response from wholesalers in
signifying willingness to go along with
retailers in cutting prices has been
good. Randell said
Three large suppliers—a Lowell hos-

a men's clothier—have already grant-
