Engineers Win a Partial Wage Board Victory
The board proposes federal and state wage commissions for public utility labor, while noting that most roads can pay fair wages. The engineers push higher daily rates by 100 miles and set overtime scales, but the panel finds some rates too high and maintains existing higher minima for some roads. It warns a railroad strike harms the public and urges settlement through arbitration or rate adjustments with the ICC.
