He said they did not take into account the fact that the steel settlement has been described in terms of total employment costs, while other major recent settlements have been described in terms of wages 'and benrfits to workers. Employment costs also include such items as Social Security and unemployment compensation taxes paid by employers on the basis of their payrolls. "Thus," Mitchell said, "to say that the reported steel package of 39 cents is comparable to the re- ported'aluminum package of.28.2 cents is not only untrue but meaningless; The steel -package, figure describes total employment costs to. the companies; the other is a description only of the wages and benefits received employes."
