None of the four men would go on record as saying they would refuse to issue a back-to- work call. But all of them hedged on whether they would issue an immediate appeal for an end to the strike. W. J. Smith said he would poll his union's locals across the country, It would be up to each one to decide on future action. He didn't spell out the recom- mendations he would personally make, Mr. Read said he had not de- cided what form his strike-end- ing call would take. But he said leaders would act as "'law-abid- ing citizens and responsible of- ficers of their unions." The government now proposes to grant an 18-per-cent wage in- crease over two years to the 118,000 striking employees, with provisions for further labor- management talks on wages and other issues. The original bill introduced Monday set down a four-per-cent increase effec- tive last Jan, 1 and another four per cent effective last July 1, Wage rates for 1967 were left to negotiation or arbitration. This eight - per - cent interim settlement was denounced as totally inadequate by | strike leaders and the Conservative and New Democratic parties. Threats were voiced that the workers would defy Parliament and remain on strike. 'The cabinet met severai times Wdnesday and gan hinting at an statutory wage boost. MADE IT OFFICIAL Mr. Nicholson made it official by reading an amendment pro- viding for two increases in 1967 four per cent Jan. 1 and six per cent July 1. The foar-step adjustment was recommended a few weeks ago ; by two conciliation boards that investigated the rail dispute. Railway employers rejected the recommendations by heavy ma- jorities, Opposition spokesmen wel- comed the governmnt amend- mnt but union leaders were reserved in their comments.
