Railroad Executives And Leaders Meet At Labor Board
Chicago reports that railroad executives and union leaders from the five major brotherhoods met at the labor board today in a public session at the Coliseum to avert a looming strike. A wage cut of twelve percent sparked the dispute, with trainmen and engineers arguing over working conditions and the board’s order. The public session followed mixed expectations about fireworks from both sides. The press notes widespread belief that a nationwide strike on October 30 is unlikely, while railroad heads insist wage cuts must precede any rate relief and reject delaying tactics.
