Big Steel Increases Wages Across Major U S Steel Firms
About 330000 United Steelworkers members at U S Steel and four other large steel producers won an immediate 8 1 3 cent per hour pay raise. Bethlehem Republic Youngstown Sheet and Tube and Laughlin followed quickly. The raise lifts basic steel pay from about 2 05 to 2 16 an hour, with broader inflationary concerns. The move comes as government controls ease and may spark price rises for steel and related materials. David J. McDonald and John A. Stephens signed the pact after ratification. Some independent unions pursue similar talks at Armco Zanesville and Middletown plants.
