Rail Union Rejects Nixon Panel's Plan
WASHINGTON  (UP1) -- The nation's largest rail union rejecting the recommendations House panel, Tuesday scheduled for Dec. 11. AFL-CIO President George Meany suggested nationalizing U.S. railroads if they are prohibited from striking.
"This is not enough—not even in the form of not enough in fringe benefits." The Dennis of the Brotherhood of Railways and Airlines Clerks Commission's recommendations for a three-year, 37 percent pay increase are $450 million.
He told a news conference the government should break with the military and nearly 200,000 rail members to strike the railroads barring a train from passing.
Dennis acknowledged that some fear that a national rail strike "is intolerable and might destroy the economy," but he said once out on strike, the union would have to work orders by the government.
Meany said in another news conference a PAWS center later that the U.S. government had unions, including BRAC, are denied the right to strike the organization.
Legal Issues Questioned In Election
TOPEKA (UPI)—An order temporarily blocking certification of two constitutional amendments approved by voters last Tuesday has been issued by Judge William R. Carpenter.
The temporary restraining order will stand pending outcome of a trial on Dec. 3 in a case against the lack of validity of the two amendments.
The amendments call for a number of changes in the state government's branch of the state government and an increase of from three to five the number of amendments in the bill. The suit was filed by Earl C. Moore, a Wichita attorney, who demands before the voters last Tuesday would have caused 15 violations on state law only allowed three.
Dec. 10, "I would advocate that the government take over the railroads."
"Other governments do it," said Meeny. "We're not doing very well now under private management, the way the government is being operated now, that might be an improvement."
Meany said he based his observations on the government's railroad workers and railroad workers to strike for fear a nationwide walkout might force the federal government to federal law requires extensive no-strike periods during rail路 operations, as several occasions has imposed contract settlements rather than strikes.
Dennis, however, said the thrust of a BRAC strike would not be against the public, so the union would move to elect a movement of essential military defense supplies and coal for use in electric power plants, as well as all passenger trains, a service industry claims is a money loser.
He said the government should grant the railroads rate increases and even subsidies if necessary to pay for them. He also said to pay the wage increases and improved fringe benefits demanded by the union. He added that railroad companies also had offered the $1 billion balance to the $2 billion balance in the railroad retirement fund administered by the federal agency.
The railroads have not yet responded to the recommendations of the White House board.
