The Ford United Auto Workers contract introduces Guaranteed Annual Wage provisions raising if a furloughed worker can collect state unemployment benefits from both the employer fund and the state fund. Current law requires unemployment and no pay, likely blocking GAW benefits. A legal change may be needed, with 1957 legislative limits delaying action.
The article surveys labor sponsored measures that would raise maximum weekly payments and extend the benefit period, noting current caps of 720 dollars over 24 weeks and 240 dollars minimum. It flags an ensuing political fight as Guaranteed Annuals and Wage plans face complex negotiations before West Virginia adopts them. It also covers Scott Paper's meeting on shortages and production, and notes Meadows Reunion set for June 19 at Drandy Falls with Rev. Bud Sharpe delivering the sermon at 11 a.m.
