GM to Offer Dealers Three New Franchises
General Motors will offer its dealers three franchise types for years or length, with contracts ranging from 30 months to indefinite terms. A new dealer relations board and an impartial umpire will handle disputes, replacing the old one year cancelable by GM. The changes, debated in Senate hearings, include extended extensions for dealers, stock adjustments, and death or incapacity provisions.

New Klan Building in Dixie Spurs AFL CIO Leaders
AFL CIO leaders George Meany and Charles Sligh Jr said a new Klan aligned organization has sprung up in the South to promote racial segregation. The civil rights committee cites 500 White Citizens Councils with over 200000 members in 44 states. The report links these councils to pressure on unions and education, warning of economic boycotts and intimidation of Black Americans. Meany and Meany discussed labor unity amid disputes with Secretary Dulles over U S policy toward Soviet forced labor and ILO resolutions.
