Pittsburgh Firemen Wage Stand Given by Mayor
Mayor David Lawrence warned Pittsburgh firemen will press for a 3600 yearly pay increase and reject the proposed 140 cost of living adjustment. James L. McDevitt of the Pennsylvania Federation of Labor noted firemen work 72 hours weekly with first year hosemen earning 52 cents per hour and urged council to form a sub committee to discuss wages and conditions. Councilman Medrate stressed the 18 dollar mayoral figure was not council recommendation but the mayor's suggestion.
