Soviet to adopt piece work system in factories and farms
Moscow reports the communist and socialist government will switch from equal wages to a piecework, economic accounting plan on May 1 across factories, mines, farms, and railroads. Wages will reflect individual effort and skill, with unions limited in wage adjudication, as exemplified by the Stalingrad tractor factory. The change aims to reward productivity and enforce contract fulfillment without union interference. An additional order calls Soviet import bodies to source Canadian goods in response to Ottawa’s embargo, while county agents promote cooperative wool marketing under the Farm Board system, detailing per grower credits, grading, and payment differences at sale.
