Wage delay loom for railroad workers in wage dispute
Washington April 21 reports say a settlement of wage demands by about 2,000,000 railroad workers may be delayed for several months as roads seek time to gather data. Brotherhood leaders warn further delay would fuel unrest while some strikers begin returning to work in parts of the country. Freight traffic recovers gradually and perishable shipments face ongoing disruption as the strike winds down.
