A Telephone Strike
CannotBe Justified
SOUTHWESTERN BELL
In an effort to prevent a strike, the company has offered
to arbitrate basic wages, the major demand of the itelephone
workers’ union.
> '• H -Vs ' ■
The company sincerely believes there is no justification
v • ;
for an increase in wages at this time. But to insure fair treat-
ment to the employees, users, and the company, we proposed
;V
that the issue be passed‘upon by five impartial citizens, ap-
pointed one each by the Governors of the states in which we
operate. . 'f
Telephone wage rates have been increased 63 per cent
i
in the last six years—about 10 per cent more than the cost of
living during the same period. In addition, our employees
have continued to receive their regular wage increases based
on merit and length of service. Their wage rates compare
favorably with wages paid in the same communities for work
requiring comparable skill and training.
The offer to arbitrate is fair to all—to our employees, to
the company, and to the public. We hope the pnion will
agree to arbitrate. There still is time to prevent a telephone
strike.
