STEEL FACING (Cont. i-rom °ag(- One) W. Va., on May 25. There tvere signs that he would attend these conferences. Meanwhile, the steel company, ,is preparing to open negotiations 'witl| Murray in Pittsburgh beriween June 1 and 16. The 1,000,000 CIO steelworkers may strike after July 15, The coal contract will expire June 30. Unless a new agreement is made, Lewis' 400.000 miners will remain off the job at the end of their 10-day vacation on July 5. Government labor experts fear that simultaneous coal and steel strikes are possible. The big question is pensions. Lewis is getting 20 cents a ton from the steel companies and other coal producers to pay SIOO-a---month pensions to miners aged 60. Murray wants up to 23 cents an

hour to pay pensions of $l5O a month at age 65. Some coal industry sources said Lewis' move to talk only with U. S. Steel is a bargaining maneuver to force other steel companies to line up with the biggest producer as they have in the past. Big steel, however, doesn’t want that task this year. Aside from crucial steel and coal negotiations, unions representing 1,000,000 auto workers, 200,000 electrical workers, 100,000 maritime workers and several smaller industries face the job of writing new agreements between now and July 15. The auto workers have more than 100,000 Fold workers out on strike now on a dispute.
