Steel Walkout Seems Certain PITTSBURG, July 8— (UP) — Angry words trnm CIO President Philip Murray made the threat of a nationwide steel walkout more pronounced today and governmc.'t mediators set out to
head It off,
Murray assailed the U. S. Steel Corp. yesterday for what he called its failure to make a genuine bargaining effort. He said the negotiations had broken off and re indicated a steel strike starting July 16 was a
virtual certainty.
An hour later federal mediation director Cyrus Ohing called representatives of U. 9. Steel and Murray's CIO United Steelworkers Union to a conference in Washington on Monday. A strike parley of Murray’s wage-policy committee is scheduled for the following day here. Incensed at “pd Steel’s" rejection of his pension, wage and insurance demands, Murray told how a “rolling strike"
would begin with a walkout of I thieaten the nation's welfa-.< 500,000 men employed by ISO [ „,, (1 saf< , ty Tho t > r ,,,i (lont th ,, n
firms affected by the July 16 strike deadline in reopening provisions of the present contracts. Then as pacts with hundreds of other plants expire on various dates up to Oct. X, he said, more and more steel workers across the nation would walk off the job. It was estimated a strike would involve about 1.000,000
workers.
Murray said it was up to the company to make the next move toward resuming the parleys that recessed abruptly yesterday after Benjamin F. Fairless, U. 9. Steel President, handed the union a flat rejection of its demand for $150 monthly pensions and a general fourthround waiy increase. The company offered a 2 1 5 cents hourly increase in insurance bene-
fits.
Government officals in Washington left little doubt that tlvy would regard a threatened steel strike as a national emergency warranting application of a
Taft-Hartley injuction.
Under the Taft-Hartley la>v, Ching could advise President Truman that the strike would
