Iron Age magazine said today. The national metalworking weekly added, "The companies. under government pressure, lost their battle along major fronts The well publicized local prac tices hassle is being settled along the lines the union argued." As a result of the settlement, the magazine said, steel compan ies will have to raise prices. Iron Age said it was unlikely that any increases would exceed $j a ton, 'and added it was more likely that they would run less than S4 a ton. Iron Age added, "Cost of the settlement, which the industry re luctantly accepted after terrific government pressure, is too rich for the blood of many steel com panies.

Some economists, on the other hand, say the featherbedding dis pute is merely the symptom of a far graver problem automa tion. Union leaders concede that in the current strike-threatening rail dispute, they are battling to save thousands of jobs from disappear ing amid the tremendous mid century upsurge of automation with its labor-saving devices. The railroads are by no means alone in their charges of feather bedding practices, which they claim are bleeding oif the savings expected from expensive new automatic equipment. In a sense, it might even be said that the universal coffee break is featherbedding, .because it involves getting paid for time not worked. In the building industry, carpen ters sometimes refuse to handle prefabricated panels, and still cling to the old handsaw when a power saw would do the work five times faster. Painters demand double wages for using a spray gun; in some cities, house painters refuse to use a . brush wider than four -inches. ' ' Similarly, plumbers often refuse to use prethreaded pipe.
