Not Enough Cooperation
Mr.. Blough said the Steel

three month steel supply on
hand is an incentive for the
industry to stall a settlement,
he said:
The sooner the strike is over
the better off everyone will be.
1t costs the industry a lot of
money to have a strike.
But the greatest incentive
for a settlement, as far as I
am concerned, is to avoid hav-

which he said includes built

example, he said, the excess
in the vetoed bill over the adj
miniStration estimates would
become $3.50 million in the
second year.
Senator Sparkman. Demo-
crat of Alabama, chairman
of the housing subcommittee,
challenged the Presidents use
of $2.2 billion as the total
amount authorized in the We
toed bill and asked Mr.. Stats
how it was arrived at.
Covers 2O-Year Period
The witness said it is the
total of obligational authority
over a period of years.
/ Senator Sparkman brought
out that it includes the sub
sidy payments on public hous-
ing units over a period of 20
years. The Senator said the
administration had never in
cluded such figures in its own
budget estimates when it asked
for new public housing units
several years ago and de-
manded to know why it was
included this time.
Senator Bush, Republican OF
Connecticut. said there was
nothing new about trying to
estimate the long-term obllga-
lions involved in public housing
He dug out an old Congressional
Record to show that in 1893

sidered.
Tomorrow and Monday the
subcommittee will hear State
Governors and mayors on the
need for continuing the urban
renewal and public housing pro-
grams. These are the source of
much of the controversy over
the bill.
The purpose of the hearings
is to determine whether the
Senate should try to override
the Presidents veto, or draft
a new bill for submission to the
President. Since a two-thil DIS
vote of both Houses would be
required to override, it is prob
able the leaders of both parties
will try to draft a compromise
lowering somewhere between
the Presidents program and the
original bill.

Federal Mediator Joseph F
Finnegan meets with Secretary
of Labor Mitchell today to re-
port on the results OF his meet
ings yesterday with steel IN
dustry and union officials.
Mr.. Mitchell is acting as a
fact-finder for President Eisen-
hover, who could halt the
steel strike-at least tempo
rarily-at any time through
emergency provisions Of the
Taft Hartley Act.
Mr.. Finnegan, head of the
Federal Mediation Service, re-
peated that he sees no early OF
easy solution to the steel strike
which has idled more than
100000 steel workers.
After meeting twice with in
dustry representatives and once
with negotiators for the United
Steelworkers Union in New
York yesterday, Mr.. Finnegan
said: I'VE feel we now have a
better orientation Of the diff
ferences" between the two sides
Aluminium Firms Stand Pat
Meanwhile, the three top
aluminium companies yesterday
rejected Steelworkers wage de-
mands and lined up with the
steel industry stand. The Steel
workers contract with the alum
mum companies expires July 81.
The aluminium companies fol-
lowed the pattern of the orig
inal proposal by the steel pro-
ducerS to the union by urging
the union to accept a one-yeal
wage freeze and give up the
cost-of- living escalator provi.
sion in the old agreements.
Union Represents 3O,5OO
A total of 10000 aluminium
workers is represented by the
union. About "a, 900 other alum
mum workers are covered by
other unions.
Union negotiators had hoped
that making some gains with
the aluminium companies might
set a wage pattern for steel,
The union had asked a Is
cents-an-hour package in each
year of the new contract.
Aluminium wages now average
1921 an hour.
The three aluminium COM
panies involved in negotia-
lions with the Steelworkers
Union are the Aluminium Co.
of America, Reynolds Metals
Co. and the Kaiser Aluminium
and Chemical Corp. Alcoa told
the union it could not go along
with economic demands which
already have been studied and
rejected by the steel industry"

How about a steel price cut

We're not considering any

said. We're concentrating

Expensive Pact, He Says
The interviewer was curious
how Mr.. Blough could go along
with a fat steel labor settle

tionS-yet is baking at any
thing like that now.

feels it was very expensive

Mr.. Blough figures the 1855
contract meant an ultimate 81
cent per hour labor cost in
crease, or a raise of about
ST 800 per steelworker over a
three-year period. The union
figures the cost at much less
and has offered in vain to
settle again on the 1856 in
crease basis.
The United States Steel chief
said his industry also needs
more leeway to cut costs to
end what he described as
wasteful manpower and pro-
duction practices. The striking
union has resisted this on the
ground it would mean hard
ships for individual workers.

the steel industry stop wage
price imitation in America?
Roger Blough, the industry's
top leader as board chairman
of United States Steel Corp,
is dubious. But he says it's
sure worth a real attempt.
You never know until you
try" he said in an interview
with the Associated Press. I'VE
think some good will come
of it,"
Mr.. Blough relaxed easily as
he discussed issues in the nine
day-old steel strike with a re-
porter at his corporations
plush skyscraper Offices in the
heart Of New York's financial
district.
He wore conservative blue
and spoke softly with sure
ness and with feeling.
Hopes Others Will Help
Il don't think any one COM
pany or industry can do this
job OF stemming imitation" he
said.
He noted that other indus
tries have been granting hefty
wage increases this year.
But he voiced a hope that
depending upon the outcome
Of our stand" in steel, other
employers will lend a hand in
resisting imitation.
The bargaining stalemate
that led to the steel strike is
rooted in the industry'S posi-
ton that it won't give up any
new wage and benefit increases
to members of the SteclWurk-
ers Union unless there are off,
setting labor cost savings.
Asked if the steel industry
intends to maintain that stand.
Mr.. Blough said. That GER
talnly is our purpose"
II believe the country I'M
derStands the problem Of infia-
ton better than it did 10 years
ago. or even 2 or 3 years ago"
he said. More people are in
tereSted in doing something

Points Out Difference
Mr.. Blough said it wasn't a
matter of freezing wages
throughout the Nation. What
steel wants stopped, he said, is
the constant increase in en-
ployment costs - the indus
try's total labor bill.
There's difference, he said.
