Pressure Claims Roiled UAW Delegates in Atlantic City
Atlantic City N J CIO United Arts Workers president Thomas charged that gangsters and hoodlums pressured delegates at the union convention. He cited incidents involving a Memphis Negro and Local 669 at Wright Aeronautical Corp Paterson NJ, saying threats aim to influence votes. The speech followed a convention boycott atmosphere as Local 668 ballots were cast amid tension. A committee was named to investigate, with the international executive board to receive a report. Concurrently proposed pay raises clashed with higher dues, and two foreign policy resolutions faced the floor, one condemning wartime behaviors and criticizing U S Britain and Russia while praising restraint.
