Ford, UAW Seek End to Ford Strike Threat
DETROIT May 29 Ford Motor and CIO United Auto Workers held an emergency session to avert a strike by 140,000 Ford workers. The union trimmed its demand for a guaranteed annual wage to 80 percent of gross pay, while Ford adjusted its package offer to allow separation pay without pension jeopardy for those who leave, preserving pension at 65. Both sides paused with no final agreement, and a walkout could be set for after midnight Wednesday if talks stall. Critics noted the company clung to a fixed stance against the guaranteed annual wage. The package offer included stock purchase options for 18 year olds, interest-free loans during layoffs, and wage guarantees for five years, which the union rejected. The union later authorized strike action through its National Ford Council.
