The Railroad Wage Cut Debate and Labor Resistance
An article analyzes a pending railroad wage cut amid prewar deflation pressures. It discusses union opposition, the likelihood of a test strike, freight-rate tensions, and the broader question of wages versus living costs in maintaining rail service.
Railway wage fairness debate and burden on workers
The article argues for careful consideration of wage cuts in railroading to avoid injustice to workers while protecting idle stockholders. It asserts that if cuts are necessary, trainmen and workers across industries, including farmers and clerks, should share the burden. It also notes that ordinary citizens ultimately pay for both capital and labor.
Montana Special Session Charged With Testing Revenue Plans
Governor Dixon called a week-long special session to revisit revenue measures including a three per cent tax on oil production and an inheritance tax. The move faces heavy legislative opposition, with critics warning the session may only yield a whitewash and substantial costs. Proponents note the state needs more revenue, arguing oil development could bear the tax without harming production. The session, projected to cost about $37,000, risks being seen as a costly detour if outcomes disappoint.
