Strike Effects Felt In Other Industries NEW YORk (UPD — Steel strikers in New York state will be able to sign Up for unemployment benefits next week, but the great majority of the nation's 500,000 idles Steelworkers can hope for no such aid. Union-industry negotiations are at a standstill until Wednesday, when the nationwide strike will have completed its seventh week. New York — with approximately 28,000 stepl workers—gives strikers unemployment pay after a strike is seven weeks old. No other major industrial state qualifies striking v kers for unemployment benefits Talks between the four - man bargaining teams of the United Steelworkers Union and the 12 major steel companies were recessed Thursday, with both sides reporting they had been unable to find a basis for agreement. The industry negotiators met with top iff-cutives of the steel companies Friday, but there was no indication of any change in the industry’s position to resist any increase in labor costs. The industry hrs rejected the union’s demand for a “substantial" wage increase on the grounds that such an increase would lead to another inflationary spiral. Other industries meanwhile were feeling the effects of the strike. The Pennsylvania Railroad announced Friday it was cutting the salaries of all non-union employes earning more than SIO,OOO a year by 10 per cent and chopping 5 per cent from salaries of $7,200 to SIO,OOO.
