It turned out to be a big day for the men who pass out the cheques for the GM Suggestion Plan, They stopped by four em- ployees in the plant and hand. ed out more than $10,000 and thoroughly enjoyed the surprise. Awards range from $10 to $5000 for ideas that are success- ful in developing greater safety or quality, or in improving me- thods or material savings. EMPLOYEE 22 YEARS Mr. Dalby, who has worked 22 of his 43 years for GM said he knew he would get an award, but he had no idea it would be so much. He suggest- ed that time and labor could be saved by replacing the felt. sound-deadening pads on doors by spraying on "rubber dough"'. "My wife could hardly be. lieve I'd hit the jackpot," he said. "I've made about $50 on three suggestions in the past. Now my wife and I can't de. cide what to do with the money. If it had been a few years ago I could really have used it, but now.
