There seemed to be little chance for an early settlement. United Steelworkers' President David J.

McDonald, arriving for sessions with federal mediators, made it plain he' felt nothing would come of the talks unless top steel company executive attended. It was the first time government mediators have moved into the dispute since similar talks in New York broke down Sept. 28. Federal mediation chief Joseph F. Finnegan, who ordered union and a a gem ent bargaining teams to Washington, met separately.

with each side before calling a joint session, Just Marking Time McDonald told newsmen: "I don't think a summit confer. ence could take place if the President and premiers were not present. Nothing can happen if they sulk in their homes and their offices." R. Conrad Cooper, chief management negotiator, said he did not know the purpose of today's session. "I'm here to find he said.

The parties were given until noon today to file any briefs with the court. After winding up futile bargainling sessions in Pittsburgh day, the companies' challenged the union's contention that a TaftHartley injunction, if sustained the Supreme Court, would work to the advantage of management in any future negotiations. Congress Might Act They warned that "the bargainling position of the steel nies is not about to whether or not there is an But government sources said Mitchell told the companies they would be better off if they settled now rather than during any resumption of the walkout after the s0-day injunction expired.

He was said to have reminded the companies that the 80 days would run out while Congress in session, It was understood that he felt a resumed strike would prompt Congress to take remedial action that could work to the disadvantage of management.
