Such action would enable our customers to' purchase their steel so as to permit a more normal growth to replace the artificial bulge of synthetic demand and a subsequent period cf decline and dislocation. "Therefore, although we could have waited until June to act on this matter, we, the 12 companies named below, propose that the steelworkers union join with us now in taking the one step that would make the greatest contribution toward meeting the proo-lem- s mentioned above: namely, that we agree now to continue benefits, present wages and other without change, for ' an additional period of one year beyond June 30, 1959.T so-call- ed "self-defeati- Ludlum Corp., and Allegheny ' Steel Corp. j ' The letter contended the union was in a good position to agree to the companies proposal because it has achieved such substantial gains for its members in recent years jthat "there is nq basis for a claim that the need to 'catch up' with unvthlne."

The proposal advanced by the companies today does not include provision ' for any adjustment dur period on the ing. the basis, of changes in the cost of living or in productivity. The letter stated that provisions have been as well as self have both "fed and motivating" .on. . .and Induced" inflation. . . . Tne members or your union," said the letter, "have al ready received increases in wages and other benefits far ex ceeding cost - of - living increases which have occurred In the past. If anything Is to be gained by trying for the benefits of a year's period of stability, we must have total effortrather than half-wa- y measures. The companies maintained that productivity cannot be measured by output per man hour of direct labor. Increased productivity normally results, the letter stated, from vast expenditures for re search and development, new tools and equipment and better management techniques, which enable companies to produce more and better products per unit of direct labor, usually with less physical effort per employee. The letter added: "Although this process increases output per manhour of direct labor, the saving in direct labor costs is accompanied by cost increases in the form of the research and engineering costs of developing the new. equipment and processes, the cost of. providing the funds invested in the new or improved equipment, the increased cost of maintenance and depreciation of the new equipment and the added costs of any worker skills and enlarged technical and clerical forces required in connection with the new equipment. Thus the net cost reduction is less than the savbg in direct manhours of work. "Therefore, such labor saving cannot be passed on to the workers in the form of wage increases, wirnout .increasing production costs. Moreover, to the extent that there is a net saving from an increase in over-al- l productstockconsumers and the ivity, well as the as holders, employees, are entitled to consideration." "Clearly," the letter stated, "output per manhour trends In the. steel industry itself cannot be used as a proper, index for change in steelworker wages. Moreover, it is a matter of indisputable fact that steelworker wages and benefit increases of the last several years have been several times greater than productivity gains, no matter what the. basis of measurement,- even output per manhour. Accordingly, on the basis of 'productivity,1' the steelworkers are ahead for years to come." cost-of-livi- . . M one-ye- ar The letter was 'signed by Cooper, R. Heath .Larry, H. C. Lumb and John H.
