Peter Pestillo, chief negotiator for Ford, said any job security guarantee would have to be taken into consid- (PAVg Mrt PQE?Y‘T CASH ITS Ov CAROLINE, HI! 4 BE-MICE.

GM Vice President Alfred War ren said talks over wages and bene fits cannot even begin until the job security issue is resolved. The comments came just 10 days before the expiration of contracts with the United Auto Workers cov ering 350,000 workers at GM and 114,000 at Ford. Bargainers worked throughout the Labor Day Weekend and are now in what is traditionally the most intense stage of bargaining. Small car injury^ claims high American cars safer United Press International During the weekend, published reports said the UAW proposed a job security program that reportedly would guarantee all 114,000 Ford workers their jobs for six years — three years longer than the tradi tional life of an industry contract. The union plan also called for a moratorium on plant closings. Pes tillo said he would be interested in a plan that guaranteed jobs for a longer period of time than the stan dard contract. “I have favored longer agreements because they reduce the periodicity of pain,” Pestillo said. However, he said the money that it takes to guarantee jobs must come out of a total package, including any lefit hike WASHINGTON — A new insur ance study said Tuesday full-size American cars are safer than smaller imports when they are involved in a collision, and Japanese autos gener ally have higher injury and property damage claims. The survey released by the Insur ance Institute for Highway Safety listed Oldsmobile Delta 88, Buicx LeSabre, Mercury Grand Marquis and Oldsmobile 98 as having the best insurance claim records. These models are large, four-door U.S.- built cars. “Larger cars such as the four-door U.S.-built automobiles listed in the survey were found to be safer than smaller cars," said Brian O’Neill, ex ecutive vice president of the highway safety group. The annual study undertaken by the Highway Loss Data Institute compared injury and collision dam age records of 1981, 1982 and 1983 models. The institute is a research organi zation that collects and analyzes in surance claims and coverage infor mation.

At GM, UAW Vice President Donald Ephlin said the union is seeking strict limits on plant closings. AUSTIN — Three pieces of land in north-central Texas no longer are under consideration as the site for a low-level radioactive waste dump be cause they don’t meet technical re quirements state officials announced Tuesday. The sites dropped from consider ation were in Archer and Wilbarger counties. Tom Blackburn of the Texas Low-Level Radioactive Waste Dispo sal Authority said the state’s option ' * Di to purchase a 456-acre site in Dim mit County expired last Friday and that the landowner so far had de clined to renew the option. “We’re still interested in that property but we will have to con tinue negotiations with the land- owner,” he said. Other sites still under consider ation were a state-owned tract in Webb County and private land in McMullen County, Blackburn said. The low-level waste authority was created in 1981 and charged with finding an adequate site for storage of radioactive wastes generated by hospitals, industry and rexata A The federal governmettki that after Jan. 1. 1986, dupoo in South Carolina, Washincir and Nevada may not be obofc accept wastes from other sum Texas produced 27,000ok of low-level nuciear waste e: However, that figure was e» to jump by 500 percent i The state-operated fadlin,i was expected to cost about lion, will not accept higb-lm clear wastes, such as spent fad! nuclear reactors.
