Corp., which produces more than
one-third of the nation's aleel,
announced an Increase In prices
averaging S3 a ton. The present
price of basic carbon steel Is 1130
a ton.
The price Increase comes Just
two days after the nation's No. 1
producer signed a contraot with
the CIO United Sleelworkers glv.
ing 100.000 employes a five-cent
hourly wage hike ami Improved
pension and Insurance programs.
Other basic steel producers are
expected lo follow U.S. Steel's ex
ample In tipping; prices since they
also reached agreement with the
union on similar contracts.
The company did not aay Im
mediately when the Increases will
become effective.
Only Wednesday Benjamin F.
Falrless, chairman of U.S. Steel,
said Uie Increases are necessary
because of Uie new USW contract.
Union officials estimated that
the Improved pension and Insur
ance programs will cost the com
pany seven cents an hour and

ment on the total cost.
The Increase In steel prlcos may
