Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book publishes the findings of an independent arbitration board enlisted to settle a pay dispute between railroad management and the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers. In 1912, this influential labor union submitted a concerted request for increased wages and revised working rules to the managements of fifty-two railroad companies. The subsequent arbitration considered the engineers' demands, the ability of the railroads to pay, and also the broader questions of compensation for capital and the responsibility of engineers. Railroads argued for maintaining the existing wage structure, citing their financial constraints and the engineers' already-favorable pay and conditions. The author presents a detailed account of the proceedings, arguments, supporting documentation, and the board's ultimate conclusions, offering insights into the complex relationship between capital, labor, and compensation in the early 20th-century United States. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
