Federal mediator waits as steel talks resume in Pittsburgh
In Pittsburgh, William E. Simkin of the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service is in attendance as top level steel contract negotiations resume with nine days until a possible strike by 450,000 workers. J W Abel and R Conrad Cooper led the union and industry teams in talks at U S Steel Building while Simkin conferred separately with both sides. The union demands wage and benefit increases of 17.9 cents per hour, while the industry offers about nine cents or 2 percent, with shutdown plans already circulating among major locals if no settlement is reached. The executive board and wage policy committee have been kept in town pending a settlement or strike.
