Trainmen Settle
2-Yr. Wage Dispute
WASHINGTON, ()P)—The Bro
therhood of Railroad Trainmen
and ithe nation’s major railroads
have settled itheir bitter two-year
oid wage dispute. Three other rail
unions remain at outs with the
carriers.
The trainmen, headed by W. P.
Kennedy, settled Friday night for
a 33 cent hourly increase for yard
men and 18Vfe cents for those in
road service, effective at various
dates back to Oct. 1.
Spokesmen for both sides said
they were sure that Wage Sta
bilization Board approval was un
necessary because the terms had
been agreed on in 'general last
Dec. 21, some 30 days before the
government froze wages.
Terms of the settlement between
the 150,000 members of the Train
| men’s Brotherhood and the car
riers were being studied by the
three other operating unions—the
engineers, conductors, and fire
men, however, they showed no im
mediate inclination to settle on
the trainmen’s terms.
The trainmen and conductors
started out together in March 1949
seeking a 40-hour work week at
43 hours’ pay for those in yard
service and a substantial wage in
crease for those in train service.
After army seizure of the rail
roads last August to prevent a
strike of the trainmen and conduc
tors, the firemen and engineers
joined in a united front against
the carriers. A tentative agree
ment reached Dec. 21 at the White
House was not ratified by union
locals although it was signed by
the presidents of the four unions.
