Leave of Dr Flemming Contemplates Service Chance
To leave my position by September I would feel turning my back at the wrong time on an opportunity to serve. Dr Flemming said that in light of the present world situation it would not be wise for him to make a prediction when he will return to Ohio Wesleyan. The trustees will review Dr Flemming's leave again not later than February 1955.

The union, driven by layoffs and future reductions, approved the plan and awaits company approval. a possible bonus production fund may be returned to workers next December. Willys employs around 7,000 workers in Toledo with an average weekly wage near 80 dollars and a gross monthly payroll around 3.5 million.
