chairmen, W. H. Taft and Frank P.

cision in the dispute between the
Bethlehem Steel Co. and its employees,
grating important concessions which
affect approximately $4,000 workers

portant in the history of the board,
states that cit appears beyond doubt
that the dissa tisfaction among the en-
ployes of the company is hampering
production of war materials, absolute
Iy necessary to the success of the ex,
peditionary forces"
By the terms of the decision the
workers are given the right to or
ganize and to bargain collectively,
and revision o. elimination of the
bonus system now in operation at the
plant, the course of much of the dis
satisfaction among the workers, is or
dered
The decision grants the revision OF
piece work rates and the establish
ment of designated. guaranteed
minimum hourly wage rate for about
5000 machine shop workers.
Since the war began the Bethlehem
Steel Co. has increased wages general
'ly 100 per cent.
