General Motors chief Curtice urges two year wage peace
Harlow H. Curtice sent a letter and a booklet to GM hourly workers in the Delco Remy and Guide Lamp divisions outlining a proposal to extend the 1955 agreement for two years. The plan promises wage boosts of at least 6 cents an hour or 2 percent, a higher cost of living allowance in June 1958, quarterly COLA updates, and maintained extra benefits. Curtice argues extension would reduce uncertainty and aid business stability amid softer demand.
