DO NOT LOOK FOR WAGE CUT
Steel Employees Satisfied With Condi-
tions of Existing Agreement

Pittsburgh, Dec Z-Employes of
the United States Steel Corporation do
not believe there will be anv cut in
wages for the coming year. The men
have been working along on two and
three days work a week In the last
two weeks there has been slight i'm
provement and they are working from
half to three-fourths time. A few
men occasionally get in full week S
work.
Since the strike of 1892 the various
mills have been operated under an
agreement. This has been one-sided, as
the company will not deal with com
mittees and the men accepted whatever
they were offered. Two years ago the
companies gave their employees a volun-
tary increase and, although the agree
nent declares notice shall be given by
both sides before any change in scale
Is made, the company has not given
the required notice.
Ninety per cent. of the 10000 en-
ployes in the Homestead Steel Works,
Carrie Furnaces, Howard Axle Works
and Schoen Steel Car Wheel Works, it
is claimed, are satisfied with the pres
ent agreement. The workmen say they
realize the conditions are such that the
companies cannot operate their plants
fully. and that in the absence of any
cut they feel they are being treated
fairly. The operation of the plants on
short time was devised to give all men
some work, while the policy of re-
trenchment was being carried out.
