CHICAGO, Aug. 12 (U. P.).—The Packing House Workers Organizing Committee (CIO) announced today that Armour & Co. had agreed to a flat 10-cent hourly wage increase and a master contract covering 13 plants,
The union statement said that
Armour had acted upon the National Mediation Board's recommendations. The company had granted an 8 per cent increase in April, which amounted to a 5-cent hourly increase, but the union obJected and sought mediation. The PWOC said the new agreement gives employees a basic wage! minimum of 72 cents an hour. Negotiations on other demands will be resumed, the union said.
