Oxford Paper Union Agree To New Meeting

Union official Eldon L. Hebert said the plan was disclosed Tuesday after a prior conference with mediator Samuel Creighton adjourned following a union seniority clause proposal and talk of insurance changes. The old contract expired June 30 and a National Labor Relations Board election, won by the union, delayed negotiations.
