Wage Talks Halted
By Pennsy and Union
By the Associated Press
PHILADELPHIA, July 1.—The
CIO United Railroad Workers, rep
resenting 50,000 nonoperating em
ployes, and the Pennsylvania Rail
road broke off wage discussions yes
terday.
The company asked time to pre
pare counter proposals to the union's j
demands for contract benefits. „ I
The union sought a 25-cent,
across-the-board wage increase and
a reduction in the work week from
48 to 40 hours.
Under the current wake scales,
the employes average “in the neigh
borhood of $1.20 an hour,” Robert
Walkinshaw, chairman of the union
negotiating committee said.
In addition to wage increases, Mr.
Walkinshaw said the union is seek
ing rule changes that will bring
working conditions of maintenance
of-equipment men to “modern stand
ards of the industry.”
He added that the company gave
no reply to the union demand on
limitation of the time iiy which
counter proposals may be drafted.
A spokesman for the railroad said
“the negotiations are proceeding
between the parties in accordance
with the Railway Labor Act.” He
said the company would make no
comment beyond this statement.
Average American Bought
18 Pounds of Candy in r47
By Hie Associated Press
NEW YORK—Penny candy, fa
vorite fare of the small fry, is mak
ing a postwar comeback—but it
sometimes costs two cents.
That's what the 65th convention
of the National Confectioners Asso
ciation heard from George F. Du
dick of the Commerce Department
food section.
"During 1947, the tide finally j
turned for penny goods.'’ Mr. Dudick
told the candy makers. "A victim
ot sugar rationing in preceding
years, one-cent goods were coming
back to the show cases' in increas
ing quantities, although their re
appearance was sometimes in the
garb of two-cent items.”
Americans ate«an average of about
18 pounds of candy a person last
year. Mr. Dudick said this was
"two to three pounds per person
greater than prewar.” To whole
salers that meant $930,000,000, up 35
per cent from 1946’s previous record.
Nevertheless, candy customers,
began showing definite concern over
price during 1947, the Government
official said.

sure" what it meant to tell the
truth, Justice, George D. Neilson dis
missed the case.
