End phone tieup tell postal pact
Telephone workers prepared to return to work under a proposed contract as seven postal unions met to discuss a tentative agreement with the U.S. Postal Service. The two pacts cover more than a million workers nationwide and come amid stalled railroad talks, with unions eyeing ratification by secret ballot in about two weeks. A postal official cited the deal near $750 million, while pay ranges from $7,100 to $9,700 annually after eight years. The CWA strike, involving about 400,000 members, and 180,000 observers, faced a mixed reception in New York, with rank and file to decide. Rail unions expanded strikes against several lines, with deadlines set for midnight Saturday on multiple railroads, as talks continued behind a news blackout. A separate United Meatworkers meeting in Salt Lake City eyed a 35,000-worker copper industry settlement offer, details undisclosed.
