United pilots seek face to face talks to end strike
About 5000 United Airlines pilots now striking want direct negotiations with company leaders as they meet with a federal mediator at 11 30 a m today in Arlington Heights. ALPA spokesman John Leroy says no settlement without direct talks with the company. Laura O Connell notes airline negotiators may join only if allowed by the mediation board head Helen Witt. The dispute centers a two tier pay plan and marks the first United strike since 1951.
