In a second ruling or the dis
pute between the Medical Secur
ity linic Inc. of Seattle and Nurses
and Professional Workers Union.
Local 126. AFL, the 12th Regional
War Labor Board granted two
weeks’ vacation with pay after
one year of continuous service.
Chairman George Bernard Noble
announced recently. The vacation
award was granted because,
though these nurses work at the
Lake Washington shipyards, they
are paid by and work for the Med
ical Security Clinic and their va
cation should be governed by the
same policy that governs other
employees of Medical Security
Clinic, Chairman Noble explained.

The 12th Regional War Labor
"Board granted modified increases
requested by the union in the dis
pute between Piggly Wiggly Store.
Safeway Stores, Inc., and Fred
"Meyer, Inc., of Astoria, and Local
147 of Retail lerks’ International
Protective Association, AFL.
Chairman George Bernard Noble
announced recently.
The increases were granted on
the basis of brackets, substan
ards, and increased cost of living
in Astoria, Dr. Noble said.
The rates as approved are as
follows: Male grocery clerks: 1st
6 months, $22.50 per week; 2nd
6 months, $25; 3rd 6 months,
$27.50; thereafter, $30. Women
grocery clerks: 1st 6 months, $20;
2nd 6 months, $22; 3rd 6 months,
$24: thereafter, $26. Women bak
ery clerks, 1st 6 months, $18; 2nd
6 months, $20; 3rd 6 months, $22;
thereafter, $24. Department
heads, $26.50. The directive pro
vided however, that any person;
receiving more than the rate de
cided upon shall not be increased
or decreased by the order. z
“Retroactive wages will be paid
all union employees who were
members of the union March 21,
1943, and are now in the employ
of any of the companies to this
dispute. The companies are to
be given credit for all voluntary
increases made since March 21,
1943, and the companies are also
to be permitted to grant other em
ployees now in their employ re
troactive wages if the same are
not included in this stipulation
and contemplated plan,” the di
rective stipulated. This clause
was inserted by mutual agree
ment of the parties.
Since the employers have indi
cated that they will ask for price
relief, the wage increase will not
become effective until the Office
of Price Administration deter
mines whether the change will
affect price ceilings, and in that
event, the approval of *he Dire*'
tor of Economic Stabilization will
be necessary.

The Wage Stabilization Divi
sion of the 12th Regional War La
bor Board announced the follow
ing decisions in major case- ore
cessed by the division last weev.
These are voluntary request for
wage adjustment made by em
ployers and unions, or by er'otoy
ers alone if no union is involved.
Retail Trade Bureau of Port
land, representing 17 Portland
stores, and Amalgamated Clothing
Workers of America, local 74, CIO,
denied an increase of 5Vfec per
hour on the basis that the present
rates are not below* the minimum
of sound and tested rates in the
; labor area for the occupations in
volved. Requests fo*- adjustments
of work week and vacations were
| also denied. 80 employees are af
fected.

sociation of Street Cleaners, Rail
way and Motor Coach, Bus Driv
ers Division, No. 1055, AFL. Re
quest in an appeal for an increase
of .065, and an additional week's
vacation with pay, denied because
the original increase of .015
brought the workers up to the
minimum sound and tested rates
for the area and on war manpower
certification was furnished. 30 em
ployees are affected.
Burke Millwork ompany, Seat
tle, and District Council of Car
penters and Millmen’s Local Un
ion No. 339, AFL An appeal for
the same increase of .075 per hour
for cutters, belt sander operator
and working foremen as was
granted other classifications in a
previous ruling was denied since
the modified increase of .0425
which had been granted these
classifications was in line with
the board policy not to exceed the
customary 10 percent differential
allowed to such classifications over
the jobs to which they are re
lated.
Warren Soule Fairjurst Co., of
Tacoma, no union. Partial ap
proval was granted the company's
ipplication for increased rate
ranges. Rate ranges for man^>rs
were denied because these are
specialized position u'ur whom no

much higher in premium wage
than the average spread between
basic clerk and such positions.
