Westinghouse Workers Strike Ends With Dividend Cake
Westinghouse directors celebrated 100 days of a strike by cutting a profit cake of 3 150 000 into a 25 cent quarterly dividend for stockholders. They faced a 600 man picket line to enter the Wall Street meeting where an 80 million loan was approved amid claims of 75 000 workers seeking an 18 percent hourly raise. The CIO labeled the dividend as evidence of disregard for workers and public. For U S Steel the four winter strike months did not halt dividends. First quarter 1946 net income was 10 238 271 on 265 856 787 in sales versus 15 379 171 and 491 085 137 last year.
