June 10 Wi Under i unique new labor contract, Pittsburgh housing developer plans to cut as much as $4,000 for the price of new homes. The pact was signed May 31 by the Pittsburgh Building Trades Council, representing a group of craft unions, and Catranel, Inc. developer of residential areas.

Roland S. Catannella said he plans to construct 1,400 homes and is committed under the agreement to utilize union labor. Agree To Concessions The unions have reciprocated by agreeing to a number of conces sions, including a guarantee there will be no work stoppages and elimination of premium pay for Saturday work that is performed to make up for loss of a full week dav because of inclement weather Catarinella says it may be pos sible to cut as much as $4,000 for the price of houses by making full application of construction ma terial, financing, design, material and use of labor. "What we hope to sell for $14, 000 in East Hills would be equiva lent to an $13,000 house built in the same general area under normal conditions." he said. The development is planned for families in the $5,000 to $8,000 year income range, he says.
