Rail Wage Hike Recommended by Emergency Board
The board urged a four cent per hour retroactive rise from February first for half a million non operating railroad workers and a two and a quarter percent increase on May first. Union leaders said the proposals lag behind their demand of twenty five cents per hour and would cost railroads about six point two cents an hour in the year ahead. The President approved noting wage guidelines and urged negotiators to settle non inflationary terms under the Railway Labor Act. George E. Leighty called the plan below expectations for the unions.
