2 81961 TWO THE PADUCAN SUN-DEMOCRAT State Probe Of Magnavox Case Is Asked WASHINGTON, Jan. 27 (UPD ternational Union of Electrical, ers, James B. Carey, Thursday Kentucky and Tennessee to study the closing of two Magnavox In letters to Govs. 1 Bert T. ford Ellington of Tennessee ers lost their jobs by closing of the Magnavox plant at Paducah, December 30.
He said that 400 workers were affected by the partial shutdown of the Magnavox cabinet plant at Greenville, Tenn. Carey said that in addition to the loss of employment it also "indicated some dissatisfaction with Tennessee and Kentucky as a site for new industry." The union wants to protect the welfare of its members and "forestall the resultant crises in these communities," Carey added. Committee To Meet With Union Pierce Lackey, head of committee to study industrial relations here, said last night that his committee would meet with officials of TUE at 1 p.m. Thursday. The meeting will be held at the city hall.
Mrs. Mary Lou Smith, prestdent of the union local involved in the Magnavox pany shutdown here, had asked for the meeting in order that the union leaders could tell "our side" of the Magnavox story. He said that all the workers at the Greeneville plant belonged to the union and that 454 of the 700 workers at Paducah were union members. The closing of the Paducah plant, Carey charged, was "surrounded by mystery" and that Magnavox has refused to reveal the true cause of the closing. Carey said a rumor campaign has blamed the closing of the Paducah plant on "labor troubles" but added that the union was willing to negotiate to help correct any problem.

Four separate laws replaced mass of earlier statutes that kept the races in separate schools. Sponsors pictured them as offering the most feasible method of holding integration to a minimum. One is a local option bill allowing voters in a school district to close public schools by referendum to avoid integration. Schools could be reopened in later referendum if voters decide they prefer public schools to private. But Vote on opening cannot be forced in the same year the schools are closed unless the local school board agrees.
A second authorizes tuition grants for pupils who do not wish to attend integrated schools. It wipes out compulsory cation of white and Negro pupils in public schools. Another revises procedures for appeals to the state board of education and removes certain supervisory authority now held by the board, to forestall any statewide integration orders from federal courts. The fourth, proposed constitutional amendment to be voted on next year in general election, would guarantee freedom of association- that is children of different races cannot be forced to attend the same school. The proposal also restfirms the state's power to tax for education.

Living Costs Up Slightly WASHINGTON, Jan. 27 UPLiving costs edged up to a record high in December for the fourth consecutive month, the government reported today. Higher prices for food and housing nudged the Labor Department's consumer price index up by one-tenth of one per cent to 127.5, a new high.
This meant that prices of goods and services bought by middle income famiMes were 27.5 per cent higher last month than in 1947-49. Robert J. Myers, deputy commissioner of labor statistics, said no long-range absolute price stability is in sight. He said that in 1061 the consumer price index is likely to rise by 1 to 2 per cent. Myers said, however, that the index for January might hold steady because declines in some prices might offset increases in others.
The department reported that for all of 1000 the price index averaged 126.5, up 1.5 per cent from 1960. This compared with increases of 1.5 per cent in 1956, 3.4 cent in 1957, 2.7 per cent in 1968 and 0.9 per cent in 1959.
