Division Will Bargain For On Wage Reopener Pursued
On January 5, 1950 the Division served notice on the Company of its intention to use a second wage reopener to secure a justifiable wage increase for workers. If any member doubts the need for a wage demand, an inventory should be made. The Company cannot use inability to pay as an excuse, and public opinion arguments about phone bills are deemed laughable yet serious. The Union seeks a fair share of profits created by workers.
