Pay Board OKs 10 Percent Raise for 140,000 Railroad Workers
The Pay Board, split, grants an 10 percent raise for 140,000 railroad trainmen this year conditional on implementing new work rules. UTU president A H Chesset withheld comment pending official notice as the pact includes a 42 percent raise over three years retroactive to Jan 1 1970. The board may approve two more raises totaling 5 percent next year if rules take effect, raising questions about adherence to wage guidelines and the pact's full acceptance by UTU.
