"INDUSTRY, LABOR GET IKE WARNING"

Det. Times 10-18

President Eisenhower warned the city's industrial and labor leaders last night to settle their disputes-or else. The alternative, he strongly hinted, would be government intervention.

EISENHOWER, SPARKLING WITH HIS TRADITIONAL POPULARITY, LEFT DETROIT EARLY TODAY AFTER BEING SEEN BY AN ESTIMATED 200,000 PERSONS WHO STILL CLING TO THE WARMTH OF HIS WIDE SMILE AND Double-arm VICTORY SALUTE.

"AT COBO HALL"

"IKE TELLS IT TO BOTH SIDES"

In his address at Cobo Hall to leaders of the automotive industry, President Eisenhower pointed to a need for labor-management co-operation—a theme which has not been sufficiently stressed by either candidate during the current presidential campaign.

In calling for greater responsibility in this area as a prime necessity if this nation is going to be able to achieve most of its objectives and commitments, the President's statement contrasted sharply with the narrower appeal made by Senator Kennedy in his Labor Day speech in Detroit.

Senator Kennedy recognized only one side of this important issue in his talk—the side of organized labor. President Eisenhower, with a broader view, made the point that both labor and management have the responsibility to work together, and that for the good of the country the interests of the one cannot be placed above the other.

"THE GOALS OF THE LABOR MOVEMENT ARE THE GOALS FOR ALL AMERICANS, AND THEIR ENEMIES ARE THE ENEMIES OF PROGRESS."

Senator Kennedy told his Cadillac Square audience on Sept. 5 in a frank bid for labor support.

He neglected to point out that the goals of management are equally important to progress.
