New Pact Averts Steel Walkout
Washington AP reports steel workers avoided a nationwide strike after a last minute settlement offering a 30 percent fringe benefits package. About 350,000 workers face possible layoffs as plants idle while stockpiles run down and negotiations restart with U S Steel and the union. The contract raises minimum hourly pay by at least one dollar over three years, guarantees cost of living adjustments, enhances pensions and life insurance, adds a ninth paid holiday, and increases unemployment benefits by three dollars per week.
