Rail workers vote on wage cuts across railroad shops
Cincinnati June 6 A unionized strike vote covering about 1.2 million rail workers will be held by affected unions after railroad labor board ordered wage reductions. Shop crafts must vote by June 30, with returns due within 30 days of board action. Chicago reports a further seven cent cut for shop mechanics and nine cents for freight car men, adding about 60 million dollars yearly in savings. Minority labor members condemn the move as unsafe and unjust while noting supervisory shop staff were spared.
