NEW YORK (CP)--Striking printers and publishers are far //apart in the dispute that has blacked out nine New York newspapers for 33 days. The 3,000 printers, members of Local 6 of the International Typographers Union, went on # |strike Dec. 8 at four New York newspapers--The Times, Daily News, Journal- American and World-Telegram and The Sun. 11Five other daily papers closed down under a publishers' agree- ment, putting a total of nearly 20,000 employees out of work. The printers originally had asked for a $19-a-week wage in- crease over a two-year period-- Wide Gap Separates Printers-Publishers Bertram A. Powers, president of the striking local, said Dec. 20 that the $8 package would amount in increased wages to only 55 cents the first year and $3.75 the second, The remainder covered what he termed minor non-wage improvements in the contract. The publishers say the print- ers' demands, if matched by the other craft unions, threaten to close down some of the pa- pers. The publishers placed ihe over-all cost of the union de- mands at $38.32 a man a week. The union has refused to put said the printers before the strike earned $190 a week, with all fringe benefits included, and would have received $200 a week under the publishers' of- fer, But David Crockett, the un- ion's vice-president for newspa- per shops, said the take-home pay of the printers was only $115 a week, out of the base scale of $141. Another union spokesman said the publishers have asked for revision of certain work provi- sions, including the right to in- troduce outside teletypesetter tape from news agencies for fi- an over-all value on its de- mands.

For example, he declared be- fore the federal marine inquiry Wednesday, his secretary is with him now in his two-bed-. room hotel suite in Ottawa. "But I'm not sleeping with her." Charles Dubin, lawyer for the federal inquiry being conducted by Mr. Justice T. G. Norris, placed airline and hotel bills be- fore the commission to show that Mr. Banks and a Miss Charlebois travelled to New York last March and stayed to- gether at the Waldorf-Astoria. "I'm not concerned with the question of the morality of the situation but I put it to you "If the doctor tells me to take a nurse with me -when I travel, I charge it to the union if I am taking that trip on the union business." But Mr. Banks denied that he had a "female companion" with him at Miami Beach and in Puerto Rico during a three- month southern trip in 1960 at SIU expense. Faced with bills for more than $4,000 made out to Mr. and Mrs. Banks, the union leader snapped: "There was no Mrs. Banks registered in the hotel." He said the hotel clerks had made an error.
