The Cost Of Living And Rail Wage Increases
The article argues that even as some prices briefly eased, the cost of living will rise due to a $600 million wage award to railroad workers and anticipated demands. Freight rates are cited as rising at least 18 percent to cover higher wages, with consumers bearing the burden through higher prices. Railroads push higher costs, dealers avoid cutting net profits, and manufacturers may not reduce final prices as expected.
