Soap Lasts Longer To make your soap last longt take the wrapper off cake soap ar let it dry and harden before using SITUATION TODAY You as a telephone user have an important stake in the issues involved in the telephone strike. We would like to give you straight answers to some questions that you may be asking. ' WHY IS THERE A STRIKE? In recognizing its responsibility to the public, to the workers and to the owners, the management could not in good conscience accede to the Union's excessive demands. The Union refused the offer to continue the present liberal contracts, and has refused the Company's offer to submit wage issues to arbitration. , in the buisness, WHAT WERE THE DEMANDS? There were over one hundred items and the pay roll cost would amount to over $27,000,000 a year. That is about five times the Company's net earnings last year. If added to present pay roll it amounts to more than all the revenue collected last year by the Company. WHY DOESN'T THE COMPANY GRANT AN INCREASE? The Company's earnings in relation to its investment are at the lowest point in its history of operations. It is in the process of seeking increases in its charges for service based on 1946 costs, the largest element of which was wages. A further increase in wages wm maKe n necessary to seek additional telephone rate increases I s.1 mhxi omerwise wouia De in areas where rates have not yet been increased. The Company feels, therefore, that it and just, it should not increase them and thus increase the cost and eventually charges for the services-MountaiStates telephone wages have increased 72 per cent over 1939. A. a. ill. n ARE PRESENT TELEPHONE WAGES GOOD? The Company thinks so. Here are some typical wage rates in Nephi. A girl starting as a student operator in Nephi begins at a minimum of $26.00 for a five-da- y weekRegular increases bring this basic rate to a top of $33.00. This does not include overtime and premium payments for evening and night work. The basic top rates for telephone craftsmen for a five-da- y work week range from $61.00 to $63.00 per week. In addition there are overtime and premium payments for evening and work There are other advantages for working for thenight Telephone Company, including eight holidays a year with pay; vacations with pay, of one, two or three weeks depending on length of service liberal sickness and death benefits, and pensions, with full cost and telephone work is STEADY WORK. paid by the Company The Company thinks its wages are good but the Union does not agree. The Company suggests that a board composed of impartial citizens of this area who are not associated with either the Telephone Company or any Union, and who are mutually agreeable to the Union and the Company, should decide the question. - ARBITRATION - - WHAT IS IT? Arbitration is simply a means of letting an impartial person or group of persons settle a dispute after reviewing the facts and giving full consideration to both sides. The arbitrator acts as a judge or umpire. We think this method of having an unbiased party decide the wage question would be fair to employees and the Company It would certainly be in the public interest. It hardly seems logical that the Union should oppose arbitration, especially when the Company is not proposing a reduction in wages if the board should find that telephone wages are above community levels of pay for work requiring similar skill and training SHOULD INCREASES GRANTED N SOME INDUSTRIES IN OTHER AREAS SET A PATTERN FOR TELEPHONE WAGES HERE? The Company doe. not think so. It will be noted that some of these other industries whose business is of a character competitive have stated that it will not be necessary for them to increase prices. An impartial board of arbitration would, of decide among other things the extent to which recent wagecourse, settlements in other industries have a bearing, if any, on telephon wages in the Rockv Mountain area. We regret the continuation of this unhappy situation. We are doing everything we can to bring about a restoration of normal service. In the meantime we sincerely appreciate the friendly understanding and cooperation of the public THE MOUNTAIN STATES TELEPHONE AND TELEGRAPH COMPANY o |
