Government labor leaders had hoped that a steel agreement might pave the way to settling mass walkouts in the electrical, automotive and meat packing industries. Instead, they faced a situation in which more than’ 1600000 U, S. workers would be idled by strikes within the next two days,

Administration leaders plainly were dismayed at the rebuff from U. 8. Steel, pace-setter for the industry, Mr. Truman warned that a steel strike would “be felt in practically every major industry” in the country. ie Its repercussions, he said, would be felt “for a long time to come.” Move to Conserve Stock The civilian production administration, meanwhile, moved to conserve existing steel stockpiles for essential needs by setting up a voluntary rationing program.

. He sald the steel industry's ace tion—combined with that taken by General Motors in refusing to comply with a recommendation of the President's fact-finding panel— “should clarify for the American people the issue which has been drawn.” Benjamin P. Fairless, president of U. S. Steel, said he had been forced to turn down the proposal because of the “injurious effect upon American industry of an unjustified wage increase in the steel industry.” Mr. Murray first had demanded a 25-cent hourly raise for his steel workers, then scaled it down to 19% cents. Mr, Fairless originally had offered 12% cents, then boosted it to 15. They had been unable to bridge the final 4%-cent gap.
