Railroad Wage Board Faces Costs and Strikes Fallout
The board reported a $600 million wage increase for railroad workers amid rising living costs, with distribution among clerks, maintenance, enginemen, shop workers, and others. It noted no new wage variations based on regional differences and left unsolved the strike issue by workers who joined new unions last April, while a Chicago union leader condemned the decision as inconsistent. Freight rates would need up to 50 percent rises to cover the cost.
