GM grants 11 cent an hour raise to Elyria plant workers
General Motors awarded a flat 11¢ hourly increase to workers at the Brown-Lipe-Chapin division in Elyria, boosting local employment from 609 with expected gains. The GM UAW pact, after 20 hours of talks, avoids a strike and introduces a cost‑of‑living based raise formula with future adjustments tied to the federal index. The agreement runs May 28, 1949 to May 28, 1950, and includes a 3¢ rise in a year and a potential 10¢ increase if the index moves to 175.

UN Takes No Action On Palestine
The United Nations deferred action on the Palestine crisis until Wednesday afternoon, after the Arab league secured a 48 hour extension to respond to the Security Council cease fire order. The session also featured two new factors in the USSR's favor as Andrey Gromyko vetoed a move for a formal inquiry into Czechoslovakia’s February rise to power, while Western powers aimed to push the Palestine debate to a head and tie it to the Czech dispute.
