A three-year contract was approved in Chicago by United Steelworkers union members at one of five can companies hit by a strike last month, but the walkout remains in effect at the other four, the union announced. The settlement, which provides for no wage increase but includes bonuses totaling $1,000 over three years, was ratified by a committee representing the 2,500 production workers at the National Can Corp. of Chicago. Workers struck the company 16 days ago.
