• A forecast was made last week by Mr. J. M. Beckett, managing director of Tarmac Roadstone Holdings Ltd., that the replacement of whole tipper fleets would be the outcome of the Transport Act and that this would bring high prosperity to tipping vehicle manufacturers., Mr. Beckett was speaking at a luncheon following the handing over to him of the 5,000th Guy Big J by Mr. A. G. Jones, managinging director of Guy Motors Ltd. which was reported in last week's CM. Mr, Jones mentioned that 44-ton-gross vehicles would be used to carry 30 ton containers and he said that Guy production records would be broken in the next few months. Mr. Beckett paid tribute to the company's exceptional "delivery-on-time" record, Following Mr. Beckett, Mr. J. Bremner, convenor of the shop stewards at Guy Motors, outlined his philosophy with regard to industrial relations, with particular reference to the Big J. "Our first purpose was to build the vehicle and we tried to co-operate and partici pate," he said. Guy prospers, we prosper, and we practised this philosophy from the time the first Big J was built up to the completion of the 5,000th model". The company had not lost one vehicle in one day as the result of labour disputes, and the workers had benefited from increased production.
Referring to the York Referendum, Mr. Bremner said it was outdated. Disputes had to be resolved at the shop floor level. If a dispute went to York the shop floor lost touch with it and this was a common cause of unofficial strikes,
