Jobs Scarce and Workers Reluctant to Strike
Washington reports that postwar low strike idleness in January through April suggests workers are less willing to strike.

The CIO UAW’s Columbus and Los Angeles plants faced a recent two month strike settled on company terms, spurring an aggressive organizing drive with incentives to recruit new members.

U S To Revise Far East Policy As Parley Fails
In Tokyo on June 18 United States officials said a major revision of Far East policy will follow the Geneva failure. Plans call for expanding the Korea army with modern weapons and a mobile U S reserve in the Western Pacific to allow rapid shifts to Southeast Asia if China threatens. Gen Van Fleet, President Eisenhower’s envoy, reviews the military situation as Geneva stalls. U N troops may hold and Korean President Rhee is not expected to restart full war actions. A key danger remains an incident on the truce line triggering renewed fighting.
