600000 Postal Workers May Have New Pact
Washington AP reports a near agreement on a new contract for 600000 postal workers. Wage increases and benefits loom as four unions push for gains, with continued talks and a tentative deal possible tonight. Key issues include job security pensions and health plans. The current contract expires July 20. Another AP item notes Betty Furness criticizing the President’s price freeze in New York.
