Erie Railroad Found Violating Labor Board Rulings
The railway labor board ruled that the Erie Railroad violated its wage decision in six respects by cutting track workers pay by 27 percent on Feb 1 and failing to restore wages as ordered. Erie argued hearings were needed before restoring prior rates, but the board upheld labor claims and warned carriers cannot divert revenue to pay wages beyond the board's decision.
