This proposal was accepted and cott offered these employees a wage increase of 96c per day. the Brotherhood deferred its strike. Conferences with this con- - ciliation panel started last Monday and were carried on daily until Friday when negotiations again became deadlocked. At this time, the company made an additional offer to these mine haulage employees, volunteering to add off-the-j-accident and sickness insurance to its group life insurance program. After brief consideration the Brotherhood also re-jected this offer. The Conciliators finally suggested further conferences to be held in Washington, D. C. The company stated it was agreeable, but the Brotherhood rejected the Conciliators' sug-gestion. The Brotherhood then set a new strike date for yesterday, October 24th. As of today, over 4500 Kennecott employees are out tfof work. They are losing income in wages at the rate of $1,375,000 per month. There will also be a reduction in money spent in Utah of approximately $2,300,000 per month for normal expenditures for supplies, freight, taxes, etc. The detrimental effects of this shutdown will reach out in many directions throughout the state.
