Southern Pacific wage cuts spark mixed reactions
A general readjustment of the wage schedule will reduce pay for engineers, firemen, and freight handlers across the Southern Pacific system from Portland to El Paso and San Francisco to Ogden starting January 1. Most workers face about a one fifth cut, with Oakland engineers mainly unaffected or slightly improved. Local voices warn of broader disruption if an accord with unions fails, while some speculate on solidarity among workers and the risk to national rail service.
