GE Workers Seek Talks As 1962 Wage Demands Persist
Federal mediator Finnegan urged both sides to avoid production stoppage and continue negotiations. IVE President Carey offered to extend talks after the national election if the current contract stays in force and be retroactive to expiration, while IE would observe some terms beyond expiration. GE outlined non binding protections for ongoing workers and noted cost-of-living escalator termination, with union dues, grievance time pay, and super-seniority now subject to review. The union, having authorized strikes, demands 32 percent annual raises plus other benefits, arguing current wages run $2.30 to $2.40 per hour.

Berlin Trade Embargo Reshapes East West Pact
Adenauer asserts West Berlin is near, while Britain France and the United States join Soviet logic in denying exclusive control. The action cancels a bilateral East West trade treaty worth about 1b marks, with Bonn pressing for a renegotiated pact by year end. Brandt aids, warning of potential East German counter measures. The note jeopardizes Allied air corridors and signals a strong economic shift for East Germany.
