Before the membership will be a
unanimous recommendation by the

to accept the Washington Newspaper
Publishers Associations offer of a
fiat s6.l0 weekly increase for each
OF three shifts. The new rate would
be effective November IL.
The offer would provide a 27 per
cent increase over the l941 news

demands for AZ per cent boost.
The raise would amount to ii per
cent over the present scale.
Under the publishers offer, the
day shift employees would receive s64
weekly, night shift $50 and third
shift STA, which would maintain the
ST shift differential.
Third-shift workers are described
as those who start work between IL

crease of the basic day rate to S7l Sc
weekly from $3.50 and 10 per cent
differential which would have given
night-shift workers $787I weekly.
and the third shift, $86.58. Publish
ers rejected the 10 per cent differ
ential demand and countered with
the proposal that the S1-a-shift diff
ferential now in effect be continued.
