ene 2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Soturday, June 29, 1963 GOOD EVENING By JACK GEARIN ON MR. I, D. SIDOROVICH OF MINSK (U.S.S.R.) NOTE: Mr. I. P. Sidorovich was a visitor to our fair city last Wednesday. He is director of the Minsk Truck Manufacturing Co.,., 38 miles from Minsk in the Byelorussian Republic, U.8,8.R. He toured the South and North GM plants with Mr, P. EB. Medvedev, head of the Department, Vitebsk Pedagogical In- stitute, Byelorussian Republic; and Mr. N, Popov, a Russian interpreter from Toronto. Mr. Sidorovich speaks no English, but he let it be known that he was "truly impressed" by such things as: 1 -- The unusual automo. tive production know-how of GM 2 -- The great variety of GM products in the auto manufacturing field, espec- jally the variety of colors available in the Paint Shop. 3 -- The large number of employees' cars to be found in the GM South Plant park- ing lot ("Russia does not have so many private cars on a per capita basis."') Told that many GM as- sembly line workers get an average basic pay of $2.30 hourly, and that some own &s many as two cars, *. Sidorovich appeared to impressed. The tour was not without humorous episodes. The plant train bearing Mr. Sidorovich's group stopped momentarily in the Body Plant at the bridge where the cars go to final assembly. Advance word of his visit got around; a small group of workers -- some of Ukrainian and Russian back- ground -- crowded around the train to converse with Mr. Sidorovich in their native tongue. It was an informal, happy occasion. Mr. Sidorovich lis- tened carefully to the remarks of a GM sweeper who said: "When I lived in Russia I worked hard for 25 cents an hour, but here I get $2 per hour for sweeping up the floor." * Somebody good-naturediy asked the sweeper what kind of car he drove. " "A Ford 1957 mode!,"' he replied promptly, clearly. "How can you drive a Ford and work for GM?" asked a fellow GM worker. "T live in a democracy, don't I?" the sweeper replied. "I can drive any type of car I wish." Mr. Sidorovich constantly tried to drive home one point in his conversation -- Russian workers are given every op- portunity by the state to advance their education without cost. When he saw some GM workers playing cards and drink- tag pop on noon-day recess, he was quick to comment: "Automotive workers in our plant usually spend their poonday lunch periods with a sandwich in one hand and a text-book in the other. They cram at all times to improve themselves." Mr. Sidorovich said that he was an assembly line worker in an automotive plant in 1948; by studying nights and in recess for a nine-year period he got his engineering degree and eventually his present position, The aim of the Russian worker is to get at least a technician's degree so that he can improve his position in life, he said. His plant makes 40 and 50-ton dump trucks for "open pit mining" and other uses: Mr. Ed. Sandford of GM's Public Relations department conducted the tour. He was disturbed when he noticed a large prominently-displayed sign (on brown paper and printed in Russian with dark indelible crayon) on the South Plant tour. His fears disappeared when the interpreter read it for him, * "Welcome to Canada, comrade," it said.
