Zurvalec Michigan Manufacturers Association 124 East Kalamazoo Street Lansing, MI 48933 David I have discussed the position paper with Dick Olson and we consider the first paragraph of the paper to be too inflammatory, i.e. "kangaroo court." it is suggested that the paragraph be rewritten to indicate that the Commission vote was based on the makeup of the Commission i.e. four labor to three management and not based on relevant information presented by industry and trade associations. Other than that, we can support the position paper. Due to other commitments neither of us will be able to attend the meeting on February 1.
