Show Midvale Sentinel ... Smelter Workers O K Renewal Of Old Contract Midvale's labor tension abated at least temporarily this week after a compromise decision between local smeltermen & the United States Smelting, Refining & Mining Co. Meeting last week in Salt Lake City, employees of the company's Midvale, Lark & Bingham properties approved acceptance of last year's contracts. The decision represented a compromise between local unions, which had asked pay increases, & USSRM operators, who had proposed a $1.96 daily wage cut. ' The contract was renewed with a wage "reopener" which provides that either local unions or the company may renew wage negotiations In December if desired. Reopening largely depends upon metal prices in December, said Harold Landers, president of the " Midvale their reason, operators said the only alternative was closure of the smelter. The Midvale local rejected the proposal at a following meeting & a three week negotiation period followed. AwLj main-tainan- ce Hiatt is that it "far too early" to speculate if the reopener clause will be used in December, or what requests' will be made if negotiations are renewed. Acceptance of last year's contract, with the reopener, was approved at a meeting of the PMC policy committee Saturday, July 16, after a day long meeting in a Salt Lake City hotel. Approximately 1300 USSRM employees in the Midvale, Lark & Bingham locals are affected by the action. Meanwhile, members of the Garfield Clerical & Technical Workers local 640, affiliated with PMC, voted last week to continue work under terms of their old contract. The smelter action clears up tension which started more than a month ago when USSRM heads announced their proposed pay cuts.
