The convention rejected a con- certed drive by some locals to write into the bargaining pro- gram a fixed demand for a 30 hour week with 40 hours pay and retirement on full pension at 60. BENEFITS Besides approving a paign for a shorter work week without any loss in pay and an annual salary for production workers, the UAW also set these contract goals: bY 1.

Full company payment of hospital-medical insurance, now borne 50-50 by workers and em- ployers. 4. A bar to a company's sub- contracting work to others when it costs UAW jobs. 5. Company payment of a worker's moving expenses when he chooses to follow movement of his job to a new or different plant, or immediate severance payment to those not choosing to move.

Bargaining points discussed included reduction of the pres- ent work week to a standard 40 hours, the right to strike during the life of a contract, minimum wage of $1.25 an hour, improved vacations with pay and pen- sions and health plans. One of the 1961 bargaining goals of the Canadian section of the United Automobile workers union is to set a wage parity with the industry in the United States. But, in line with the policy adopted by the economic con vention of the inion in Detroit last week, the Canadian program, though the more detailed, adhered to a flexible approach that would give the union a wide area for manoeuvering in this year's bargaining. : Wage rates in the Canadian auto industry are approximately 40 cents an hour below the levels in the United States for comparable jobs. The Canadian section has found little support in the past from the international for a strike on the issue of narrowing the wage gap. The international position has been that basic corporation wage policy is dic- tated from the United States and it would be extremely diffi- cult to win more for-the Cana- dian auto workers than U.S. unemployed members came from leaders of the left-wing faction within the Canadian sec- tion of the union.

Tariff Change In For Bad Time By JOHN E. BIRD Canadian Press Staff Writer OTTAWA (CP) -- A govern- ment measure proposing highly technical and controversial amendments to tariff legisla- tion appears to be in for a stormy ride in the Senate. Senate Opposition Leader W. Ross MacDonald told the Upper House Tuesday night that the Liberal majority will move to kill a provision in the bill giv- ing the minister arbitrary power' in certain tariff deci sions. He was speaking during open- ing debate on a bill changing the definition of imports consid- ered to be of a class or kind produced in Canada. On mauy types of imports, especially ma- chinery, higher tariff rates are levied if goods fall in such a class. Senator MacDonald objected to part of the bill giving the revenue minister final power to decide two points without right of appeal. He said the minister would have the final say in de- ciding the amount of "normal Canadian ption" and the {inal decision on whether an consum i Ee a a a import should come within a new made-in-Canada classifica- tion as being a custom - made product that existing Capadian facilities could produce in a reasonable time. Senator MacDonald said the provision gives the minister the right to tax, a prerogative of -- Parliament. MAY KILL SECTION It is expected that Liberal Senators will move an amend- ment later in the debalg to eliminate the provision from the bill. Senator MacDonald said he could not accept the bill while it contained a clause giving the revenue minister such powers. The provision was wholly un- acceptable and contrary to the principles of democratic gov- ernment. The minister of rev- enue was being granted "abso- lute power" to fix a rate of cus- toms duty. Senator MacDonald said he is not sure that the bill will do anything to help solve unem- ployment or assist Canada's trading relations with other countries. ing the revenue minister arbi- trary power in certain tariff decisions. INTERPRETING THE NEWS ISN'T NATURE WONDERFUL? NEW YORK (AP)--Jack Demarco was delighted when he got word from the hospital Tuesday that he was the father of a daugh- ter. Demarco dashed for the hospital--to learn that he was, instead, the father of twin girls. He was rejoicing over this extra good fortune when the doctor came around a few minutes later, offered con- gratulations and started to relate what had happened. "y®s," interrupted De- marco, 'I know. Twins." "Yes, twins," said the doctor. "Plus one." A third girl had been born a few minutes after the sec- ond.

Soviet Union, President Ken- nedy's advisers said they would know within about six weeks whether Russia was bargaining in good faith. That period of time is just about up and instead of showing progress, the talks deteriorated. The West made new concessions while the Russians declined to yield ground. But instead of breaking off the talks or raising new threats of underground tests, the U.S. is returning its negotiator, Arthur Dean, to the Geneva conference table for another round of ex- hausting conversation. In making this move, Ken- nedy apparently is responding to the private appeals of Can- ada, Britain and other allies who urge the US. to exhaust every channel of negotiation in the hope of maintaining peace. While facing pressures at home to end a moratorium of some 215 years and start test- ing again, Kennedy appears to be pinned in a diplomatic cerner where he dare not risk a further deterioration of American influ- ence in world affairs. He may seek to engage the Russians in diplomatic conver: sation where the good intentions licized.
