...agreement, but the halfhearted, stop-and-go manner in which they had negotiated. Last week after urgent personal requests from the President that they get down to serious negotiating, labor and management met over a coffee table in Pittsburgh's Penn-Sheraton Hotel. The session followed the same pattern of dull do-nothing that had characterized all the previous negotiations. U.S. Steel Chairman Roger Blough pointed to the management's offer of a "15? wage package," stuck by his demands for revision in union work rules (TIME, Oct. 12).
