time was needed to study it. He add
ed he would advise her when he had
received some "intelligent reaction to
the proposal.”
About the same time. General Mo
tors posted on all plant bulletin
boards a statement signed by Sloan
saying the corporation would nego
tiate with the auto workers’ union as
soon as sit-down strikers evacuated
the plants.
Sloan denied Miss Perkins’ accusa
tion that the corporation had evaded
"moral responsibilities" in the strike
crisis.
“You know this Is not true,” he
added. “So why all these charges?
Simply because we refuse to negotiate
with a group that holds our plants
for ransom without regard to law or
justice. * * *"
Chevrolet plants in Michigan and
Indiana, meantime, received 40,000
workers who had been idle some days
because the strike had tied up key
plants. There was no trouble. Homer
Martin, union president, said it was
all right for union members to go
back to work in plant* where strikes
had not been called.
MURPHY TURN'S DOWN WORKERS
Befuaes to Pledge Protection to and

DETROIT. January 28 CP).—Gov.
Prank Murphy reiterated at Lansing
today the State’s intention to prevent
bloodshed or violence in connection
with General Motors strikes, but told
a delegation from the Flint alliance
it was impossible to answer their de
mand that he "guarantee all workers
full protection in going to and com
ing from work.”
S. A. Rasbach of Flint, a Buick
Worker, headed the group, which an
alliance mass meeting at Flint Tues
day instructed to demand a "yes” or

alliance was organized to express anti
strike sentiment.
“You know I helped to arrange
peaceful negotiations between Gen
eral Motors and the strikers," Murphy
told Rasbach. “Unfortunately, those
negotiations were disturbed, in part
by the Flint Alliance. If that had not
happened, you might all have been at
work now. It is your duty to use
forbearance and care.”
“I demand a direct answer In the
name of the 8.000 workers who sent
us here,” retorted Rasbach.
“You’ll go away without one,” an
swered the Governor.
“We want bread and butter and the
right to work guaranteed by the
State,” Rasbach said.
The Governor pointed out that since
arrival of National Guardsmen at
Flint following riots outside a striker
held Fisher Body Co. plant there had
been no rioting nor bloodshed in
Flint. Murphy added that Federal
and State government authorities were
continuing efforts toward peace con
ciliation between the corporation and
the United Automobile Workers of
America.
He advised Rasbach not to attempt
to inflame workers on his return to
Flint.
Three union organisers were taken
to a Flint hospital today as the result
of what a deputy sheriff termed the
“deliberate” wrecking of the taxicab
in which they were fleeing from hos

United Mine Workers’ district at
