Steel strike hampers defense material supply
Gene Collett reports from Pittsburgh on a 23 day strike by CID United Steelworkers curbing defense materials. Despite plans to aid armed forces, cement and other non steel items move slowly while finished shell and fighter plane components stay warehoused. Wage board demands and public caution mark the standoff as idle workers rise above 690,000 in steel and allied sectors. In Washington, a Senate move blocks President Truman from appointing an ambassador to the Vatican without Congress approval.
