Truckers seek higher pay as wage talks stall
Ruling notes truck operation costs amount to about 10.25 dollars per day covering gas repairs and taxes but excludes owner compensation. At 65 cents per hour for the truck and 35 cents for the driver the workers earn about 8 dollars daily and fear collapse of work under wage cuts. A proposed 20 cents per quarter mile plan drew no action and a delegation to Austin failed to form. The truckers left adjustment to state officials.
