Revolt Flares In Steel Union PITTSBURGH UP) A no- holds-barred struggle for control of the 1.2 million-member United Steelworkers Union was being fought today in union halls and mills throughout the nation.

A rebel group of rank-and-file members has crystalized a protest against a $2 a month increase in union dues into a full-fledged drive to oust USW President David J. McDonald and his fellow international officers. The "ins" have threatened expulsion for the rebel leaders.
