Show McNally asks for federal assistance I ' The U.S. Department of Labor has begun a Trade Adjustment Assistance Act investigation to determine whether imports contributed con-tributed importantly to the loss of employment for approximately 350 workers at the McNally Mountain States Steel Company in Lindon. A petition was filed with the Labor Department Nov. 21 by the company on behalf of workers who manufactured fabricated structural steel.

Persons interested in submitting written comments on this petition are welcome to do so by writing to the Director, Office of Trade Adjustment Ad-justment Assistance, Employment and Training Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, 601 D Street, N.W., Washington, D.C., 20213. |
