Auto Trike Perhaps A Close Such Parleys On By The Associaten
Significant indications of a change in the nation's strike picture were displayed yesterday as leaders of the automotive industry line up conferred, made concessions, and agreed to meet again. General Motors and the United Automobile Workers agreed after an all day conference with Gov. Frank Murphy to open negotiations Monday to break the deadlock. Union leaders were assured GM would not reopen plants or remove machinery, and to have sit down strikers leave the plants. Negotiations are set to start four hours after buildings are evacuated. Washington's Secretary of Labor Perkins announced progress toward ending the flat glass strike. About 200,000 idle workers, including more than 114,000 GM employees, watched developments. National guards increased to 2,400 in Michigan to preserve order after seven were injured in a street battle Monday night. Four GM plants planned to suspend operations by next Monday and two Chevrolet branches by next Saturday. Members of the International Union of Mine, Mill and Smelter Workers voted to quit Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad company mines at Birmingham.

Labor Statutes To Be Held Back In Congress
Washington officials say congressional leaders will delay action on hours wages and conditions of labor awaiting the Supreme Court ruling on the labor relations act. House Judiciary Chairman Sumpert notes substitutes for NRA and proposed amendments will be held in abeyance while the court ruling, due by March 1, may shape the program.
