So Secreta Schwellenbach has been quietly and shrewdly playing the three big manufacturers against each other in hope of settling the wage dispute. That is the current strategy, Already Henry Ford I has told Schwellenbach that he wants to cooperate with the Union, and to a lesser extent Chrysler Corpora- tion also has shown a conciliatory spirit Biggest nut Schwellenbach has to crack is General Motors, which so far has resisted all efforts to submit its wage battle to a_negotiation of the union's 30-per-cent wage-in- crease demand. However, if Schwellenbach is able to get Ford and Chrysler to agree to a compromise settlement—thus heading off a strike in the two plants—General Motors is not likely to risk a strike while its two big competitors are producing cars The auto union leade on the other hand, may find themselves losing government goodwill unless also play hall with government negotiators by agreeing to com- promise their 30-per-cent wage- incres demand.
