President Can Block Strike
At the end of the cooling off period President Bush can delay a strike for up to 60 more days through appointment of a Presidential Emergency Board to weigh the various offers from the two sides. Such a move is seen generally as benefiting management.
Bush named such a board in talk s between Northwest Airlines and a separate mechanics union earlier in March, and he threatened to do so in labor talk s at other major airlines since that time.
United's statement said it does not foresee any disruption in its service to customer s as a result of Friday's developments, suggesting that it is counting on th e president to come to management's rescue once again.
Joe Tiberi, spokesman for the IAM, said that th e union would be opposed to any РЕВ in this case, and that it was confident that an agreement could be reached during the cooling off period.
"Historically those final 30 days when everyone's back is against the wall is when most productive negotiations take place" he said. "That's why we've been pushing for that since November. "

Talks were delayed while the Aircraft Mechanics Fraternal Organization, an independent union that represents mechanics at Northwest, sought to win representation at United as well. The NMB rejected its petition to have a vote there earlier this summer.
