An order by US District Judge George H. Moore authorizes a nearly six million dollar annual non operating payroll increase for Missouri Pacific Lines. The seven cent hourly raise applies to 30,000 non operating employees including clerical and maintenance staff retroactive to Oct 1 1948, with back pay around $100 each. The ruling also adjusts hours for dining car staff and yardmasters and increases dispatchers pay by 16.80 monthly, with the 40 hour week set to start Sept 1 and 48 hours pay for the extra time.
