ASK NEW CONTRACT Negotiations hinge on arbitration changes

Des Moines officials of the tall union submitted a proposed new contract to General Manager J R Harrigan as a basis for negotiations likely to begin next Monday. The union says changes focus on employee discharge investigations and arbitration. Harrigan has not stated his course, but the union hopes he will meet with full authority to act. They believe the new contract prevents future trouble like the Hiatt case and requires arbitration if company and association officers cannot settle disputes. The old text used "performance of the terms and conditions" while the new version omits this phrase. If an employee is aggrieved by company action, the old clause mandated full investigation and reinstatement. the new clause allows adjustment through the association first, before arbitration.
