Seek Adjustment on Trial Crew Rates
(contInueo from Pape one)

(C0ntlnu60 from rage OHe1 ism. It is impossible to test prin- cipal operations without actual trials.
 The test crew is also composed and selected from first class me- chanics but actual Navy exper- fence is not so necessary for this group. The Union strongly con- tends that the test crew does not require as much skill as the trial crew because if any flaws develop, they call in and turn over to me chanics the matter of making the adjustments or repairs. On the other hand, if any flaws Or defects appear while the trial crew is Dp- erating the boat out on trials, me- chanics are not available and the members of the trial crew make their own repairs and adjustments. The Union believes that no less than 75-809o of the trial crew would be qualified to serve on the test crew, but that only 25-30% of the test crew would be compe- tent to serve on the trial crew
 The present hourly rates for the test crew are $1.13, $1.21, $1.31. $1.44 and $50 per hour. At pres ent, hourly rates for the trial crew are $1.03 Company has agreed that the minimum trial crew rate should be $11O), $110, $113, $1.21, $1.31 and $138 per hour.
 It will be observed that at the very top of the bracket. there is a variance of twelve cents (l2c) per hour and that this variance continues irregularly d w n through the entire rate range. The above differences, in the opinion of the Union, are accounted for only because originally there was separate supervision for the test crew and the trial crew. The test crew supervisor was liberal, fair and progressive in setting rates and awarding merit increases. On the other hand, the trial crew Su- perviSor administered a very mis- erly policy in the matter of ad- vancement and rates.
 A great deal of attention has now been focused upon this issue and the Union is demanding a solution because it has become very i'm portant subject. At one time, trials were infreQuent and serving on the trial crews was part time job only. Furthermore. trials. when they did occur, were for longer periods of time and al greater distances. Before the war the trial crew took a boat out on a trip lasting several days and spe- cial individual contracts were made for what is known as Sea-trial compensation.
 At the present time. the trial crew is fulltime job but the boats make short daily trips not too far off shore. The number of hours worked on both the trial and test crew are now in close correlation, and the difference in rates has be- come pronounced. The situation exactly typifies an intra-plant in equality which should be correct ed.
