Talks
e steel industry and striking
greed to resume direct negotia-
ing cornmitte' said yesterday it
inrad Cooper, U. S. Steel Corp.'s
try negotiator, had called union
President David J. McDonald to
arrange for the meeting.
Government fact-finders prod
ded the strike antagonists back
into direct ne gotiations , advis
ing both sides to give some
ground.
• President Eisenhower's inquiry
!board wound up four days of
hearings on issues behind the 93-
day strike by saying the nation
sorely wants a settlement.
George W. Taylor, the panel's
chairman, said the crippling walk
out, idling some 725,000 workers,
is reaching the point where re
suming steel production is more
important than how it is done.
Taylor suggested that the in
dustry and the striking United
Steelworkers of America con
sider submitting their dispute to
arbitration—the decision of an
- outside neutral--if they couldn't
settle it on their own.
Both sides said they don't want
arbitration, and prefer negotia
tions.
As the hearings ended, with the
industry's presentation, Steel
workers President David J. Mc-
Donald went ito a huddle with his
union's executive board. The in
dustry's coordinating committee
also met. •
Late in the day it was an
nounced .that R. Conrad Cooper,
the steel industry's top negotia
tor, had called McDonald and ar
ranged the meeting for Friday
morning in McDonald's room in
the Hotel Carlton here.
