' A, spokesman for the AFL un ion hailed the company's action a “complete victory for the un ion." He declared the union had indicated its willingness to submit the issues to a fact-finding board a month ago when negotiations over the union’s demand for a 15-cent hourly wage increase were in progress.

The announcement was made by Cyrus S. Ching, director of the Federal Mediation and Concilia tion Service. Ching said the panel would be appointed immediately. After their unvestigation. he added, the unions will resume negotiations on their 15-cent hourly wage de mand with the company. The panel also will decide whether the unions reopened their contracts on October 1 or Novem ber 1. The company raised a question about the date the re opening notices were filed with the Government. Chinjr said the panel would hear evidence from both company and union officials. He said the question of wage retroactivity— should a wage increase eventu ally he granted—would depend on the panel's finding on the re opening date issue.

Since that time the com pany made no counter proposal and r refused to give an inch in its position until the union set the date for the nation-wide strike of its members.
