Strike Averted as Public Service Workers Reach Pay Agreement
A threatened statewide trolley strike was averted after a lengthy conference led by Dudley Farrand. Union reps from engineers, machinists, and firemen agreed to a wage increase, with engineers and machinists to receive a uniform daily rate, firemen to be raised to 2.55 and 2.25 respectively, ending the walkout that would have crippled trolley lines, gas, and electric systems statewide.
