Efforis 10 Negotiate De- mdnds with Bell System,
 Nationwide Basis, Off

WASHINGTON. May 7.-tR- Unions which called the cross country telephone strike last April r have abandoned efforts to nego- tiate their demands with the Bell System on a nationwide basis.
 This decision to shift the em- phasis to local bargaining was hailed today by Bell officials as well as union leaders as move likely to hasten the end of the 31 day-old tieup.
 Officials of the Bell System and it's parent concern, the A. T. & T., had consistently refused to yield to union insistence on nationwide bargaining, contending negotiations should be on a local basis because of local factors involved
 The 49-member policy commit tee of the National Federation of Telephone Workers, which had been in almost daily session since March 24 was adjourned indefin- itely and it's members returned home to help bargain out settle ments in their own areas.
 NFTW President Joseph A. Be- irne said the policy committees decision to strive separately for new wage agreements with the more than 20 Bell companies was not backward step, but would intensity negotiations.
