SIX MEDrORD (ORECOK) MAIL TRIBUNE Thursday, July 12, 1S5S Top Negotiators Renew Discussions In Steel Dispute Pittsburgh U.R) Top ne gotiators for th United Steel- workers ana me nauon s Basic steel industry sit down together t a bargaining table today for their first joint meeting since the strike began 12 days ago... Federal Mediation Director Joseph F. Finnegan said the talks would begin at 4 p.m. (EDT) at the Hotel William Penn here. The mediator said he and his aides would participate in the session aimed at settling the contract deadlock which has idled 650,000 millworkers and up to 90,000 workers in steel dependent industries. Doubt Earl; Settlement But mediation officials doubt ed the resumed negotiations would mean an early settlement. Tinnegan said nothings he has heard in the past two days has changed his feeling that "this is still an extremely serious situa tion." Finnegan indicated this after noon's session would be the first of a series. "There will have to be more meetings if this thing is going to be settled," he said. But he added no additional joint talks had been scheduled. Industry representatives agreed to the meeting of sides after a Washington conference with Fin negan Wednesday. USW Presi dent David J. McDonald gave the union's approval Tuesday. Cites Industry Offer John A. Stephens, U.S. Steel Corp. vice president and chief industry negotiator, told news men "we have never had any reluctance to meet with the un ion." He said he is "hopeful that some one of these days the union will recognize the wonderful of fer that's been made and accept it." McDonald said it was "high time" for the steel industry ex ecutives "to devote themselves to1 the problem they have cre ated, and enter into collective bargaining with us." The industry has offered a five-year, no strike agreement which provides for an average annual increase of 7.3 cents an hour plus other fringe benefits spread over the term of the con tract. Union officials want a shorter contract with increased immed iate gains. The Dalles Apricot Harvest at Peak The Dalles U.R) Tradt sources here said today that the apricot harvest in The Dalles area is at its peak with proces sors handling between 10 and 15 tons of the fresh fruit daily. Prices are nearly double those of a year ago, processors report, with the quantity of the harvest down somewhat but the quality of the fruit improved from a year ago. Growers expect to complete the harvest by the end of this week. The price boost this year was credited mainly to a poor crop in California and the routing east of apricots grown in the Yakima area.
