Steelworkers reach pact with copper firm signaling early return
The United Steelworkers approve a 40 month wage and fringe benefits deal at Phelps Dodge, with a $1.13 per hour rise. The accord covers Arizona and Texas mining smelting refining workers and a separate 75 cent raise for Ark and Yonkers wire fabricating staff. Other unions seek ratifications next week as talks continue with Kennecott Anaconda and ASARCO. Police brief notes Kenneth J. Braxton cited for speeding in Carbondale.
