Pacific Greyhound Averts Strike By Union
The Regional War Labor Board fixed wages and conditions for Pacific Greyhound employees represented by the Amalgamated Union for July 1 1944 to June 30 1946. Officials later demanded large wage increases with a 24 hour ultimatum, then extended to October 4. The company proposed submitting the dispute to the War Labor Board and arbitration, both rejected by the union. The union seeks about 1 650 000 in retroactive pay beyond the board’s award.
