J. B. Annand, PUC man- ager, said that the commis- sioners will hold a "brief meeting" with the union officials, Some 15 items, in- cluding increased wages, vacations and statutory hol- idays, are items in dispute. A conciliation officer is scheduled to hear differ- ences between the parties Wednesday. A majority of the 150- member local rejected man- agement counter - proposals made last week. The busi- ness agent for the local, Jack Stone, said Wednes- day that new terms in wage rates offered by the commis- sion were rejected by the membership. ON DIFFERENCES The local membership, in the water works and electri- cal and transportation de- partments, have been work- ing without an agreement since a contract expired in February. Discontent among the local' members at the slow pace of negotiations result- ed. in a wildcat strike June. 29. The four-hour long strike tied-up Oshawa's rush hour traffic and left hundreds of people stranded downtown. Some 40 bus drivers who walked off the job were joined by the water pump- ing station and electri- cal department employees. Emergency crews stood by in case of emergency. Mr. Stone said then that the membership were upset because not all commission- ers attended a conciliation officer meeting. He stated subsequently that the com- missioners made a better showing at a later bargain- ing session.
