GE wage offer sparks union reactions in New York
New York The General Electric Co offer to raise wages by four to five cents an hour drew cool response from one major union and a declaration of total inadequacy from another. The offer was made to 220000 employees in 182 GE plants represented by the CIO affiliated United Electrical Workers and the rival Electrical Workers union. The CIO did not immediately reject, saying it would study the proposal at a GE conference board meeting. The Independent Union, expelled from the CIO years ago, called the offer totally inadequate given GE profits and extra dividends. Both unions had sought a guaranteed annual wage plus an hourly increase, with present GE wages averaging about 1.88 an hour. GE had rejected annual pay on a prior trial. The offer also included an improved holiday and vacation plan and aligned contract dates to September.

Shine Back In Center Of TV Hearings
General Cor nelius B. Ryan testified that he never heard Stevens ask Schine to pose with him for a photograph during a visit to McGuire Air Force Base. He recalled being with Stevens and said the cropped print of the photo was made later from a larger negative. The testimony covers the Army's handling of Schine and alleged pressure on the McCarthy subcommittee, with Ryan detailing passes given to Schine and his status at Ft. Dix. The hearing also touches on debates over the integrity of the cropped image and the broader McCarthy Army investigation. The DC Board of Education proposed a blueprint to end segregation in Washington schools, aiming for desegregation within a year and setting a five-point plan.
