Union Survey Links Incomes To Feeding More Families
A union study of 244 leaf house and redrying workers in eastern North Carolina finds average per worker take home about $25.06 weekly and $11.38 per family, with a $19.41 weekly food bill equal to 46 percent of income. If money were higher, 99 percent would buy more food. 87 percent would seek more medical care. The report cites price blame on Congress and business, notes 63,000 such workers nationwide with 34,300 in NC, and criticizes 1947 unemployment amendments linked to R J Reynolds Tobacco for reducing state aid and costing the community.
