Reuther Urges Wage Increase and Shorter Work Week
Walter Reuther leader of the United Automobile Workers and AFL-CIO Industrial Union head says rising prices require boosting wages rather than a buy less strategy. He notes a shortage of customers in auto, steel, and textile sectors and calls for higher wages, shorter hours, and possible price cuts to restore demand. He cites a three million car shortfall and criticizes Eisenhower's suggestion to purchase less.
