compositorS employed by lao New
York firms to So week on the
ground that the higher figure
although allowable under the little
steel formula might upset the
wage structure of the entire print
ing industry.
The board said that neither
should be interpreted as a major
deviation from the basic formula
under which a Is per cent increase
in wages over the January, 194l,
level is allowable to compensate for
increases in the cost of living since
that date. 1t claimed they were
unusual cases.
The industry members of the
WLB dissented from the lumber
award and the labor members dis
sented from the printing award.
Public member George W. Taylor
reaffirmed the boards determine
ton to stick by the little steel
yardstick as the way of measuring
most wage increases, but indicated
that increasing pressure from labor
might force the board to raise 1.-The
general level of wages. He ap-
pealed for more decisive action on
the price control front, warning
that such a higher general wage
level might lead to national econo-
mic chaos.
