Pay Board Member Seeks Retroactive Raises
In New York the UAW president said the Nixon Pay Board could allow retroactive pay increases for union workers after the freeze ends November 13. He and AFL CIO head Meany may quit if increases are disallowed. Rumsfeld noted the board can grant back pay once the freeze loosens. Woodcock cited contracts with General Motors and McDonnell Douglas as needing honoring to avoid inflating profits. The panel chair clarified retroactive raises are illegal under the freeze, but decisions after Phase 2 could enable recovery.

United Nations Deadlock On China Vote
UN diplomats debate a possible 58 to 58 tie on a U S resolution to oust Nationalist China from the United Nations. A tie would delay the decision to a second meeting within 48 hours, with rules declaring defeat on a second stalemate. The Albanian resolution seeks to seat Communist China and remove Nationalist China. A dual representation plan would seat both Chinas in the General Assembly and place Communist China on the Security Council.
