Railroads See Wage Rise After Federal Control
Testifying before the Senate in 1922 William Gibbs McAdoo defended wage increases for rail workers during Federal control. He cited a Wage Commission finding that labor had been underpaid and stressed the need to raise wages to stop turnover and restore efficient operation, countering claims of excessive wartime pay. The commission showed most workers earned modest wages with few above 150 a month.

Railroad Wage Question: Wages Not Too High During War
A railroad executive argued that wage increases under General No. 27 and its supplements were never excessive, noting rail workers were underpaid compared with other industries during the war. He stated workers served patriotically, sacrificing concessions, and that their efforts saved costs in locomotive repairs, totaling about 50.6 million dollars annually.
