ManviUo Man Dies As Attempt to Flee House Fire Fails MANVILLE A ragins fire took the life of a nearly-blind man alone in his home last night. Gaza Verboczki, 52, of 84 Valerie Drive, perished in a blaze in his one-story ranch home. Police said he apparently tried to escape through his bedroom window. The first aid squad rushed him to Somerset Hospital, Somerville, where he was pronounced dead on arrival. Fire companies arrived at the darkened house and began to douse the blaze which was shooting eight-foot flames from the kitchen to an attached garagewhen they learned that Verboczki was probably inside.

After some difficulty caused by the flames and smoke, several firemen, including Second Assistant Chief Michael Ruby, got into the home and located Verboczki in a front bedroom, and carried him outside. Detective' Sergeant Richard Delesky said, the fire victim's hands were cut, indicating he tried to break through the bedroom window. He was fully dressed and apparntly had not retired when the fire broke out. His body was found between the bed and the wall. An excited anonymous caller notified police of the fire at 10:50 p.m.

Verboczki's wife, Mary, was attending a wake in the borough and his son, Louis, was out. Another son, Thomas, is serving in the Air Force. The blaze of undetermined origin began in the kitchen. The blaze totally gutted the interior of the home. According to police, the apparent cause of death was smoke inhalation.

An autopsy is expected to be performed today. Sgt. Delesky said he and Fire Captain Frank Rubito will conduct an investigation today to determine the cause of the blaze. Patrolman John Hardgrove and Robert Marsicano assisted at the scene. Verboczki, who was almost totally blind, was under a doctor's care, but traveled about the borough.

A former employe of American Cyanamid in Bridgewater, he had been out of work for two to three years due to his visual infirmity. He was the second man to perish in a house fire in the borough this year. On Feb. 7, Leonard Vaughn, 48, of 18 S. 5th died of smoke inhalation in a fire in his home.

Diversified Corporate Holdings As the economy of the nation becomes more sophisticated, companies have slowly abandoned their reliance on one major product in favor of applying their capital to more diversified corporate holdings. The copper industry was no exception to the rule. All four companies are involved in such diverse operations as lead, zinc, brass and cadmium refining.

As the diversification within the corporate structure progressed, however, the unions with which the companies dealt were involved in fierce jurisdictional disputes. The two major unions in the industry, the United Steel Workers and the United Mine and Mill Workers Union, waged war over which union would cover what Gradually it dawned on the two major unions that they were only hurting each other and their members by continuing their disputes. In July of 1967, the United Mine, and Mill Workers voted to merge with the United Steel Workers, thus eliminating what the union terms the company practice of dealing with one union and then another in order to achieve vthe lowest possible settlement. In agreement with the 24 other unions with which the companies dealt, the unions decided to bargain collectively with each company in order to arrive at a standard wage and expiration date. Companies Balked At this the companies balked.

Claiming that the very diversification which exists within the companies prohibited such bargaining, the copper industries declared, as one spokesman put it, that they could not "take diverse operations and melt them into one category." "There are geographical wage, differences throughout the country which we cannot overlook," John Corbett, a spokesman for said. "An electrician on the East Coast performs operations which are far more complex than, say, an electrician in one of our smaller plants in the West," he continued. John Infusino, president of Perth Amboy Local 365 of the USW, claimed that negotiated wages and fringe benefits for 13 units of the old United Mine and Mill Workers on a national scale, "I have the contracts which show that wages and fringe benefits were negotiated on a national scale for units located in towns as far removed from one another as Tacoma, and Perth he stated. And Albert Petit-Clair said that "national contracts are negotiated for such basic indus- tries as rubber, aluminum, can and auto, so that we are not asking for something new." Petit-Clair added that besides Phelps-Dodge negotiated all its Arizona properties together, Anaconda bargained with all its Mon-tana properties together, and Kennecott also negotiated all its mine and mill workers contracts together. Inconclusive skirmishes over the same issue have also been waged with Union Carbide and General Electric.

But it is in the copper industry that, perhaps, the question of whether unions have the right to present a "united front" to companies with diversified holdings and job classifications may be decided. Speaking for the union position, Petit-Clair says that they are not interested in a complete change-over in this contract, but that they "want the principle of company-wide bargaining and a common expiration date recognized." Both sides have taken heavy losses In the battle. Profits in some copper companies have dropped as much as 83 per cent below figures reported over the last quarter of 1966. The workers have incurred heavy debts, especially on mortgage and car payments, in order to keep their heads above water. Locally, Infusino estimated that one half or better of the members his union have found other work.

"Others have used their savings or have simply incurred debts," he said. The union provides $12 to $18 per week for each member for a food allowance, depending on the number of children in a family. Otto Gatti, director of the Raritan Bay Chamber of Commerce, said that the over-all effect of the strike on business "has not been too bad." "If the strike keeps up, however, it will certainly have a bad effect," he said. The recent lay-offs in the secondary copper industries seem to bear out Gatti's fears. He said the only noticeable area which had been affected was the United Fund.

"The president of the fund estimated that their agencies would all take a 10 per cent cut in their budgets this year because of the lack of response to the fund appeal," he said. As the paralysis caused by the strike slowly begins to affect other major copper users, a settlement will undoubtedly be bludgeoned out between the two parties. The suit brought by the National Labor Relations Board in Arizona against the USW for unfair bargaining practices seems to herald a change in the atmosphere. Undoubtedly a compromise solution will be forced on the two parties, and the main issue will continue to smolder. If the decision is not made in copper, it will be made in another industry.

The two sides will call an armistice, only to come again to fight another day. ,1) L- V' i. i l.r.
