Wage Board Suit Targets A&P Union Over Pay Standards
The Cost of Living Council seeks 5000 civil penalties split between A&P Co and the local union in a case involving 77 Baltimore plant workers. The suit tests Pay Board rules setting a 5.5 percent wage-increase floor with exceptions, following a 22 percent rise won by the union in a 16 month contract. The council also seeks orders to stop excess wage payments and to bar the union from pressuring such payments. The Price Commission said five exemption requests were denied. Zayre Corp and Albertson’s were ordered to roll back prices to freeze levels for failing to mark up as required.
