In Pittsburgh, work has been halted on eight major projects, including the U.S. Steel building, pending the outcome of negotiations between the demonstrators and the unions. Chicago unions broke off what had seemed to be promising talks with the militants late last week after a group of blacks invaded the state A.F.L.-C.I.O. convention and pushed the 82-year-old state federation president, Reuben Soderstrom, away from a microphone.
