THREE THE KINGSTON DAILY FREEMAN, KINGSTON, X. SATURDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 1.1955. NACA Speaker 11 Electrical Workers Reject 5 Year Pact Pittsburgh, Oct. 1 iff) The CIO International Union of Electrical Workers, representing some 44,000 employes of Westinghouse Electric has turned down a proposed 5 year contract which the company says provides pay hikes totaling 16 per cent. The company made the same offer yesterday to three other unions bargaining for about 26, 000 workers.

Leaders of those unions were not available for comment. Robert D. Blasier, Westing house vice president in charge of industrial relations, said the offer was the most liberal in the company's history. Blasier said the proposal calls for an immediate three per cent raise with a minimum of 4 cents for hourly workers. Salaried workers would get from $1.80 to $4.80 a week more.

The proposal also carries additional boosts of three per cent for 1956 and 1957, and 3 per cent more in 1958 and 1959. CIO IEU members now average $2.10 an hour. The Joiners New of Interest to Fraternal Organization Rondout Lodge 343, AM will hold its regular stated communication Monday in the Masonic Temple, 31 Albany avenue, at 7:30 p. when the first degree will be conferred on a full class of candidates.

(AP Wirephoto) nection with the kidnaping of Robert Marcus, Sole Ends Sunday ADA Chief Sees Ike Out of Race New York, Oct. 1 VP) Joseph L. Rauh national chairman of Americans for Democratic Action (ADA), said today it must be assumed that President Eisenhower "will not be a candidate for reelection in 1956." "It is simply accepting the political realities to recognize that the President's sudden illness has radically changed the political picture," said Rauh in a speech prepared for the annual convention of the New York city ADA chapter. SAYING HE was "schocked and grieved" by Eisenhowers unexpected heart attack a week ago, Rauh dclared: "It is impossible to that politicians of any party could be so cynical or so cruel as to pressure the President into standing for reelection." He did not say whether he thought such "pressure" is being exerted at present. Rauh said the turn of events caused by Eisenhower's illness "means that the campaign in 1956 will be based on issues, not personalities." BUTLER FURNITURE CO.
