Rail Employes Get 5-Day Week CHICAGO, ^arch 21—(UP) —
George E. Leighty, spokesman for 1,000,000 non-operating railroad workers, said today that the new agreement between 10 unions and the nation’s railroads was “the most momentous in the histary of American industry.”
Trie agreement, signed yester-
day, cut the work week of the employes from 48 tit 40 without reducing their pay, effective Sept. 1. It alsp gave them a seven-cent hourly pay boost re-
troactive to last Oct. 1. In the final settle nent, it
was agreed that yardmaster Y'should stay on a 48-hour week but will receive a 10-cent pay increase instead of seven cents. Agreement also was reached to provide additional benefits to monthly-rated employes working
48 hours.
Experts said the settlement probably would set a basis foi agreement on a similar wage nour dispute involving employeof the railway express agency. The express dispute nas been narked by slowdowns and lay o.fs the New York area. Leighty, president of the order T railway teleprapaers and chairman of the union’s negotiatng committee, said the settlenent "brings . to a successful onclusion the most momentous ./age and hour movement In rail, oad history or for tnat matter n the history of American in-
iustry."
He said the agreement couli .ave been reached two month arlier if if the carriers had beei willing to accept the recoin neni’ations cf a fact-finding, oard which investigated the dis ute. Members of the board actd as private citizens later anc irtually arbitrated t$e settle
.nent.
Under the agreement, most workers will receive two conecutive days of rest each week -’lit the railroads retained the. ight to split rest days under circumstances, generally when penalty overtime payment.* would be unavoidable. The workers gave up their premium ■>ay for Saturday ana Sunday work but will receive aovertime ■or working more than five
ach week.
