Although they know thia, leader* o f 16 rail road union* are demanding a five-day, M on day through Friday, week for one million railroad employes. T h ey want 48 hour* pay for 40 hour* work — in itself a 20% wage increase. T h ey also demand a minimum o f 12 hour* pay for anv work performed on Saturdays, and 16 hours pay for any work performed on Sundays and holidays. On top o f all this they want an additional increase o f 25c an hour for every em ploye! You’d Pay the Bill! Summing up these demands, they mean that these union lenders seek to force the railroads to give one million employes an annual raise which would atrrage $1500 per employe! T h e total cost o f this would be no less than 1 4 billion dollars per year, which is more than twice the expected net income o f the railroad* this year. You'd pay the bill, because if creased costs ate forced on tbs these in railroads. they must have still further rate and fare increases. Railroads Run for Everybody— Not Employes Alone Demands Unreasonable These employee have had substantial raises during and since the war. Their average week ly earnings are higher than the average weekly earnings o f workers in manufacturing indus tries. T h e y have more job security than the average worker in American industry. T h ey also enjoy paid vacations, a retirement sys tem and other advantages more generous than the average worker receives. T h e railroad industry must serve not one but many groups— producers, businessmen, ship pers,< passengers and the general p u b lic - night and day, every day o f the year. These unions are proceeding in utter disregard o f this important difference between railroads and other industries. Industrial plants can be shut down over weekends and holidays, but freight, mail, express and passengers must continue to move. Eierybody who enters ra il- road employment knows this. In contrast with the demands of these 16 unions, whirh add up to the equivalent of 48r an hour, the Conductors and Trainmen recently settled their wage request for an increase of 10c an hour. On September 18, 1948, the leaders o f these 16 unions began taking a strike vote. But the threat of a strike will not alter the opposition of the railroads to such unreasonable demands! 1SS WEST ADAMS STREET Strike Threat s CHICAGO t, ILLINOIS W e are publishing this and other advertisements to talk with you at first hand about matters which are important to everybody.
