CHUTE DETROIT (UPI) -The United Auto Workers today turned last fte autmotive its attention to Chrysler big three without a national contract agreement with the union. Ratification of its contract with Ford Motor Co. began today as the union's 166,000 members at Ford began voting on a tentative agreement which was recommended for acceptance Tuesday by the UAW's ford Council.

The results were expected to be known ty next-Tuesday. Within hours of the Ford Council's recommendation for ratification, the company announced it was boosting the prices of its 1971 model cars an average $15. It was the second increase announced since the 1971 prices came out Sept. 15 and brought the prices of 1971 models to $187, or 5.6 per cent, higher than comparable 1970 models.

Unless Congress and the unions reach such a comprom- ise, a strike appeared inevitable, with union leaders promising to defy Congress and the courts and go to jail if necessary to uphold "our basic right to strike." A final labor-management negotiating session broke off at 1:30 a.m. Tuesday, and no others were scheduled. House and Senate committees were meeting today to consider legislation to extend at least 45 days the deadline for a strike the Nixon administration said would shut down much of the country's heavy industry, disrupt mail, and lead to shortages of consumer C.

L. Dennis, president of the of Railway and Airline Clerks, one of four unions involved, first said Tuesday his men would walk out no matter what action the government took. Moratorium Acceptable But after testifying before the House Commerce Committee, Dennis said a strike moratorium might be acceptable if a temporary pay increase was included. The trend in similar situations," however, has been for rail workers to stage wildcat walkouts even after union officials called off the strike. President Nixon, saying a nationwide rail strike could not be allowed, asked Congress Monday to approve a 45-day delay.

Nixon "already" had" exhausted all legal means to postpone a strike under the National Railway Labor Act. Underscoring the administration's concern, Transportation Secretary John A. Volpe held out the possibility troops would be used to run the railroads if Dennis went through with his threat to defy any congressional antistrike action.

But the clerks immediately rejected the 37 per cent increase as too small, and all four unions said they would 'Continued on Page 8) degenerate unethical political While speakjng disparagingly of the Johnson and Kennedy administrations and the trend in black affairs during the sixties to look to Washington for help, Gregory was laudatory of the results realized since Nixon's election, though not by any merit, of Nixon.

As examples of violence in America's past, Gregory cited the Haymarket Riots in Chicago during the turbulent days of labor unions' birth. He also singled out the draft protests in New York City in the 18S0's where protesters were machine-gunned in the streets. Violence has been bred, he feels. by in-doctrination from the older generation in entertainment which presupposes the necessity of violent action, in history books and myths which glorify past atrocitiesTand turbulent eras, and in having used violence as an answer to their own problems.
