Murray Charges Industry Out To Provoke Strike
Philip Murray, president of CIO United Steelworkers, accuses the steel industry of provoking a strike to force unjustified price increases. He testified as the CIO rebuttal opened before a Washington wage hearing panel seeking a settlement for a wage contract dispute and to avert an impending February 2 strike. Murray alleges the industry aims to pressure the government with threats of a walkout while 630,000 members seek an 18 percent wage boost, annual minimum wage, and benefits. He says these terms can be granted without price hikes or unfair burden on industry profits and notes no progress since negotiations began November 1.
