After about seven months of discussions the Joint union Industry Human Relations Committee reached a two year contract. Steelworkers president David J. McDonald and US Steel executive VP R. Conrad Cooper co chair the panel which praised the bargain as a breakthrough in collective bargaining. The agreement raises industry employment costs by about 15 cents per man hour while expanding the vacation plan to 18 weeks for half of the most senior workers and adding a vacation week for others. Regular vacations for that year are folded into the 13 week total.
