The ultimatum was served yesterday by Timothy J. Twomey, secretary-treasurer of Hospital and Institutional Union Local 250, which represents 3,200 nursing (except registered nurses), housekeeping and dietary personnel at institutions represented by the Associated Hospitals of the Eastbay and San Francisco.

The eight-member Affiliated Hospitals of San Francisco Tuesday night accepted a 30-month package of wage and fringe benefit improvements proposed by Arbitrator Sam Kagel and approved by the same union for more than 2,000 similar workers. the Associated group balked at some of the provisions, made a counterproposal and asked the State Conciliation Service to set up a meeting as soon as possible in an effort to resolve the dispute. Included in the San Francisco settlement are three pay raises of 8.2 per cent each at 10-month intervals, starting last July 1, when the old agreement expired; a 40 per cent hike in retirement benefits, and improved health, welfare and vacation benefits. This contract will expire Jan. 1, 1974, concurrently with the current registered nurses agreement.

It is subject to approval by the U.S. Pay Board in Washington, D.C. The Associated hospitals objected to the cost of the m-creases without assurance from the U.S. Price Commission that it could be recovered from higher rates and to the common expiration with the registered nurses. Hospitals which are facing the strike threat are Alameda, Alta Bates, Childrens, Herrick Memorial, Merritt, Peralta, Providence and San Lean-dro Memorial all in the Eastbay Franklin, French, Presbyterian and St.

Francis in San Francisco. Those which are affected by the settlement are Childrens, Golden Gate Community, Hahnemann, Marys Help, Mount Zion, St. Josephs, St. Lukes and St. Marys all in San Francisco.
