The pattern offer of a 4 per cent waite boost was accepted Wednesday by the 107.000 membcr Brotherhood of Rail road Trainmen, largest of the operating unions. The Trainmen became the third largest brotherhood of tn-lrain employees to settle their differences with the .carriers. Government arbitra tors earlier this month award ed the Brotherhood of Loco motive Engineers a 4 per cent increase and the Order of Hallway Conductors and Brakemen subsequently ac cepted the pattern. : The. Trainmen's agreement .provides for a 10.2 cents hour ly increase over the next 16' months. One-half of the in crease will take effect July I and the other half Mnreh Hi, 1001. The agreement will ex pire Nov. 1, 1061. $30 Million Annually Theodore Short, spokesman for the rairoad b;ir.:ii!iinR teams, said the wage boosts for the Trainmen would cost the carriers $1)0 million a year. Short said the wage boosts mean that "unless vays to cut the exorbitant cost of feather bedding waste are found. rates must be increased and jobs eliminated." ' f'ln an industry where earnings have been going down steadily in recent years, It is obvious that any increase in wages at this time is going to hurt the general public and the employees as well as the railroads themselves," Short said. The railroads and HUT be gan negotiations more than a year ago. The carriers asked the union to accept a IS cent hourly pay cut while union demanded a 14 per cent wage increase. To Make Recommendations A presidential fact-finding board will make recommen dations to President Eisen hower July 15 on a dispute between the carriers and another train union, t h e Switchmen's Union of North America.
