Wage Board Eyes Presidential Step In Oil Strike
The Wage Stabilization Board entered the oil dispute as a possible path to a presidential appeal to end the walkout. It left action uncertain, sending the case back to oil companies and unions with 90 000 workers on strike. The CIO volume trimmed wage demands from 25 to 18 percent as rationing orders extend across western states. Interior officials deny imminent gasoline rationing plans despite shortages reports in Chicago and Detroit.
