KEPT AWAKE
IMPERIA, Italy (UPD—The
catlike noises from under the
bed kept a young Italian wife
awake for months, and finally
led her to court.
The unidentified housewife
complained the meowing was
done by her husband who curled
up underneath the bed at night,
and not a family pet.
She asked the court for a
legal separation.
20-Cent Dispute
Threatens Rails
WASHINGTON (UPD —A
dispute over 20 cents an hour
threatens the nation with a
railroad strike that could
cripple rail traffic from border
to border next week.
The Brotherhood of Railroad
Signalmen said it will call its
13,000 members out on strike at
6:01 a.m. local time next
Monday unless the combined
railroad lines agree to Its wage
demands.
The carriers promptly ac
cused the union of “endangering
the entire economy of the
United States” with a strike
that would be “disastrous and
wholly unnecessary.”
C. J. Chamberlain, union
president, said all of the legal
delays preventing a strike under
the Railway Labor Act have
been exhausted and the union
would have been free to strike
last Monday if it desired.
He said the unresolved issue
in the contract is the union’s
demand for a “skilled inequity”
—more money for the 80 per
cent of the union membership
who hold skilled jobs. A
presidential board recommend
ed March 7 that the seven
carriers grant a 20-oent-per
hour differential for the skilled
workers effective as of last July
1, and that a union demand for
another increase this year be
submitted to binding arbitra
tion.
The carriers agreed to both
provisions but the union refused
to accept the provision for
binding arbitration. Chamber
lain said the 20-cent increase,
on top of a general increase of
about 30 cents, would bring the
skilled workers to $3.76 an hour.
He said that was not enough
money.
J. P. Hiltz Jr., chairman of
the National Railway Labor
Conference, representing the
carriers, said there was “no
supportable reason” for the
strike threat.
Chamberlain said a strike
would cripple the U.S. rail
network and "while we regret
the inconvenience our action
may cause the general public,
we know of no other way to
correct this inequitable situa
tion.”
