Trusteeship dispute at UN prep commission
London Nov 29 Reuters reports the first major rift at the United Nations preparatory commission as Andrei Gromyko objects to a plan for a temporary trusteeship body. He argues it violates the UN charter and is not an auxiliary organ, noting no territories are yet under trusteeship and listing charter categories. No decision reached on the plan or on UN housing discussions, with applications from Canadian locales and U.S. regions under review.

Steel Workers Award Union Power To Call Strike
In Pittsburgh on November 29 union members of the CIO United Steel Workers of America authorized a countrywide strike by a vote near five to one. The authority rests with the national wage policy committee and the executive board, with no immediate strike planned. The election, the largest NL RB vote in U.S. history, covered 766 plants and about 650000 workers, though many did not vote. The move followed steel companies' refusal to grant a $2 daily raise without price hikes rejected by the Office of Price Administration.

British Hold Java Base Soerabaja under British control
British command announced the complete occupation of Soerabaja, Java, and said a local administration is under British control. South of the base, Indonesian guns were knocked out. In Bandoeng talks continued with West Java governor Soetardjo, while an ultimatum kept Indonesian civilians from near posts and warned that male civilians at roadblocks would be shot.

Local 200 UAW rejects Windsor settlement proposal
Windsor Ontario November 29 Local 200 of the United Automobile Workers rejected a Ford Motor Company of Canada settlement plan aimed at ending the 79 day strike. A secret ballot at mass meetings showed 52 per cent opposed and 48 per cent in favor among those voting. The union vows continued efforts with the Canadian Congress of Labor to win a decent contract and lasting peace. The plan reportedly included an umpire to supervise returns to work and possible arbitration on lingering issues, but Ford shop stewards later voted 71 to 7 against the policy committee’s recommendation, potentially affecting the membership vote in Windsor.
