Aluminum Co and Employees Hold Firm in Strike
U S Labor conciliator Fred Keighley returned to Washington to push settlement of a six plant strike involving 8700 workers now into its second week. If talks fail the NLRB may convene a conference between Aluminum Company of America officials and the Aluminum Workers' Council though the board cannot force such a meeting. The company will not operate plants during the strike and the union seems to be letting the four largest plants fail to pressure terms. Keightly plans a conference with company officials to find common ground as neither side has moved.
