Bowles remains opposed to a $2.50 per ton steel price rise while policy chiefs led by Snyder back a $4 boost. United States Steel argues the needed increase would be well above $6.25 to cover the 18 cent hourly wage hike proposed for CIO United Steelworkers. Wage talks lag in General Motors and shipbuilding as labor officials plan weekend discussions after Detroit talks.
