Rail unions refuse wage hike amid national dispute
The Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and two other unions representing about 125,000 railroad workers refuse a 16 34 cent an hour raise. Arbitration in 1947 had granted similar increases to 1,000,000 non operating employees and 175,000 conductors and switchmen. Striking and mediation efforts failed as the unions press for more and warn of a national paralyzing strike.
