UPWA Fights

MONTREAL (CPA) — The
United Packinghouse Workers
of America (CLC) have re-
quested the aid of a Quebec
Labor Department conciliation
officer to aid in negotiations
with three packing plants.

The plants concerned are Can-
ada Packers in Montreal and Hull,
and Wilsil’s in Montreal, About
1,700 employees are, involved.

The UPWA is asking wage in-
creases, a pension fund and_a.life
insurance plan. Negotiations with
Canada Packers are usually car-
ried out on a Canada-wide scale,
but conciliation is always at the
provincial level according to law,
when the industry does not come
under the federal Industrial Re-
lations and Disputes Investiga-
tion Act.

Histadrut Award
Goes To Reuther

NEW YORK (CPA)—Wal-
ter P. Reuther, president of the
United Auto Workers, will re-
ceive the 1958 Histadrut Hu-
manitarian Award for “distin-
guished service to the cause of
democracy and for the further-
ance of friendly relations be-
tween the United States and
Israel.

Announcement of the award was
made by the National Committee
for Labor Israel. Presentation
will take place June 17 at the
Waldorf-Astoria hotel here, co-

inciding with the Industrial Rela-
tions Conference of the Industrial
Union Department of the AFL-
CIO.

The Histadrut Humanitarian
Award has been presented in past
years to U.S. president Harry
Truman, vice-president Albon W.
Barkley, Justice William O. Doug-
las, Mrs, Eleanor Roosevelt, New
York State governor Averill Har-
riman and AFL-CIO president
George Meany. Histadrut is the
general federation of labor in
Israel.

Manufacturers Devise
Ethical Standards

NEW YORK (CPA) — The
National Association of Manu-
facturers has issued a Digest of
Moral and Ethical Standards
for Business, urging that em-
ployers be fair in all dealings
with employees, customers,
creditors and suppliers — but
will not set up policing machin-
ery to enforce the code.

The Digest comes out strongly
against monopoly in business, la-

bor and government; and says that
it is a right of the worker to join
or refuse to join a union, The
code urged collective bargaining
good faith, and denounced mass
picketing by unions.

The N.A.M. ethical practices
Digest contained a summary of
the AFL-CIO Ethical Practices
Code, which is strongly enforced
by the Ethical Practices Commit-
tee of the federation.

Federation Unites All

STOCKHOLM (CPA)—An employer here said recently
that because 99.5 per cent of Swedish workers belong to the cen-
tral labor federation, industrial; peace is assured. Both parties,
employers and employees, he said, have the moral strength to
trust more to negotiations than to struggle. The first collective
agreement was signed in this country in 1871, and in 1928 a model

labor law was passed.
