production workers has bargaining
rights.
Alcoa made the same offer to
6,500 other workers at four plants
where the AFL Aluminum Workers
have bargaining rights.
The rapid-fire development—fol
lowing intervention of Government
mediators—assured continued pro
duction of aluminum vitally needed

night tomorrow. The AFL post

the same time—pending a vote on
the offer by its locals.
Alcoa said its basic price of
aluminum will be increased 1 cent

cents per pound and of the large
size 99 per cent ingot to 16'cents
a pound.
The present hourly wage rate of
Alcoa’s production workers is about
$1 an hour. The Steelworkers orig
inally had asked a 12 cent an hour
increase and the company countered
with an 8 per cent offer which it Is
said amounted to about 10 cents
an hour.
Workers covered by the new steel
workers pact are at Alcoa plants in
Alcoa, Tenn.; New Kensington, Pa.;
Edgewater, N. J.; Mobile, Ala.;
