Southern Bell
Begins Negotiations
On Wage Hike
1r —V f -
Contract negotiations between
the Southern Bell Telephone and
Telegraph company and the com
munications Workers of America
(CIO) began in Atlanta Monday}
April 30. The present agreement |
covering tHe company’s non-super-1
visory employees, including those}
in Clinton runs until June 5.
G. D. Garner, Southern Bell vice-;
president, in charge of personnel,
indicated in Atlanta Saturday that}
the company will go into the ne
gotiations prepared to make a wage
offer within the limits of the gov
ernment’s wage stabilization pro
gram.
‘•Surveys just completed show
that a general upward movement of
wages has taken place in the South
and that a wage increase for South
ern Bell employees is justified,” he
said. “The company’s policy is to
pay wage rates that are in line with
those paid other workers in the
community having similar skills.
Only in this way can we do justice
to our employees and continue to
attract and keep the high-type per
sonnel essential to good telephone
service.
"Operating costs already have in
creased out of line with revenue,
and increased wags on top of oth
er cost rises, will require an in
crease in telephone rates. There is
no margin in our income to absorb
any increased costs. In fact, we
have fallen short by $20,000,000 an-
