Labor Roundup GM Denies Plot on Wages and Prices
General Motors President C. E. Wilson testified before the NLRB denying any plot with major manufacturers to curb wages. He said the December meeting at Waldorf-Astoria involved leaders from GM, United States Steel, and others discussing the industry’s wage crisis. Separately, Oregon and Washington sheet workers plan a Monday strike for a 1 74 percent raise amid a nationwide slowdown with 750000 steel workers idle for 25 days. The wage-price policy dispute stirs government debate as the steel price rise faces last minute hitches.
