Wool Selling
Bill Proposed
WASHINGTON, March 3 Ml')
Senator Biwlifli-ld (R-S.D.), said
today he would support n. pend
ing senate hill to permit aule
of government-owned wool at
less than purity to meet foreign
competition.
"We must not be caught in a
position where we will have to
be dependent on foreign Imports
to mnlntnln our wool supply,"
he told a reporter.
A bill sponsored by Senator
Robertson (R-Wyo,), would au
thorize the commodity credit
corporation, which operate the
wool price support program, to
dispose of its vnst stock at be
low purity. It holds hundreds
of thousands of pounds of wool.
Continuation of the support pro
gram hus been urged in congress
recently.
The agriculture depnrtment re
ported last week that 50 per
cent of the domestic consump
tion of wool Inst year wus sup
plied by Imports.

Telephone Employees Get Good Wages
Employees of The Pacific Telephone and Telegraph company
are well paid and their wages compare favorably with those paid
by other concerns in the community for work requiring similar skill
and training.
The Pacific Telephone and Telegraph
company is still trying in every way to
avoid a telephone strike.
We have offered to renew our present
liberal contracts.
But the unions have made demands for
large increases in wages.
In recognition that the public interest
comes first and to eliminate any reason
for a telephone work stoppage which
would be a disaster for the public, the
company has offered to submit to arbitra
tion the question of wages which is the
fundamental issue in dispute.
Telephone Wage Rates
Have Been Increased 58 Per Cent
Telephone wage rates are now the high
est in history. They have been increased
on an average 58 per cent since 1941. The
, largest increases have been in recent years.
Since 1941 increases in wage levels total
ing $69,000,000 on an annual basis have
been put in effect by this company.
These increases are in addition to mil
lions of dollars in regularly ( scheduled
raises given our employees. Thousands
of our employees receive wage increases
as often as every three months. Other
thousands receive increases every six
months or every year.
Many Advantages to Telephone Job
These include steady work. Regular
wage increases. Good working conditions.
Holidays with pay. Vacations with pay
for one, two and three weeks depending on
length of service. Sickness and death
benef its, and pensions.
The Pacific
Pennroad Suit
Asks $2 Million
PHILADELPHIA, March 31
(A') Court-applonted attorneys
asked U. S. District Judge
George A. Welsh today to award
$1,050,000 to four law firms in
volved in the aettlcmcnt of
claims on behalf- of Pennroad
corporation stockholders.
The suit grew out of charge
by Pennrood stockholders that
the Pennsylvania railroad made
"improper expenditures of near
ly $05,000,000 of corporation
funds."
Last August the railroad
lugrccd to settle for $15,000,000
the Pennroad stockholders'
suits. Pennroad was formed in
1929 as an investment corpor
ation by PRR officers and di
rectors. Claims were filed by the 19
lawyers and stockholder repre
sentatives for $4,000,000.

Union demands total about $100,
000,000 a year. This is equivalent
to an increase of ... .
$45 per year per telephone sub
scriber. 40 per cent increase in all telephone
rates.
The demands of the unions would in
crease the cost of. providing telephone
service by about $100,000,000 a year. This
comes to more than 60 per cent of this
company's wage payments in 1946. It is
five times Dur total earnings in 1946. It
would make our total payroll more than'
all of the money we took in last year.
In terms of the average telephone bill,
it amounts to $45.00 a year for every one
of 2,300,000 telephone subscribers or a 40
per cent increase in all telephone rates.
We have been bargaining co-operatively
for years with the unions representing our
employees we have been doing it over
recent weeks and we are keeping the
door open for whatever further meetings
are necessary.
We want our employees to be well paid.
Wages that are too low are not fair to
employees who do the work.
Wages that are too high are not fair to
the public who buy the service.
We believe that our offer of arbitration
would be fair to everyone. There is no
excuse for a telephone strike.
