Walkouts in East Ahead Of Schedule
The United States faces a looming national steel strike as CIO workers press for wage gains. President Truman’s compromise proposal was accepted by CIO head Philip Murray but rejected by U.S. Steel president Benjamin Fairless. Mills began curtailing output as walkouts spread, with plants like Jones & Laughlin in Pittsburgh and Columbia Steel in California shutting down and tens of thousands idling. Government rationing plans could be used to preserve essential needs if the strike broadens.
