Compromise Near for Ford and NRA
Washington officials anticipate Ford will provide required wage and hour figures to the National Automobile Chamber of Commerce by November 6 or 7. The remaining major issue is collective bargaining with employees, highlighted by the Edgewater New Jersey plant dispute. Senator Wagner of the national labor board warned that negotiations may conclude soon, while Ford’s compliance faces monitoring as the NRA notes the aim to reveal figures without singling out Dearborn. In Chicago, the NRA ban on Ford products has not yet reached city government, which approved purchasing 38 Ford cars for city use including 36 for the Police Department, financed after trading in 19 old cars, totaling about $29,060.
