Benefits unilaterally introduced by an employer are generally included. The information is largely obtained from collective bargaining agreements and related documents, voluntarily filed with the Bureau. Descrip tions of the course of collective bargaining are derived from news media and confirmed and/or supplemented by the parties to the agreement. Wage chronologies deal only with selected, features of collective bargaining or wage determination. They are intended pri marily as a tool for research, analysis, and wage administration. References to job security, grievance procedure, methodology of piece-rate adjustment, and similar matters are omitted. This chronology summarizes changes in wage rates and related wage practices negotiated by the International Harvester Co. with the United Electrical, Radio and Machine Workers of America-Farm Equipment Workers, from April 1946 until June 1955, and the International Union, United Automobile, Aerospace and Agricultural Implement Workers of America, since February 1946. This bulletin replaces BLS Report 202— published as a basic chronology and three supplements— and also adds new material on negotiated contract changes effective through September 1970. The earlier texts are in cluded as they were originally published; no attempt has been made to revise these state ments to reflect the current situation. The analysis for the period 1961-70 was prepared in the Division of Trends in Em ployee Compensation by Richard A. Dodd and John J.

This chronology traces the major changes in wage rates and related wage practices from the date of the first postwar agreement between the company and FEUE and the UAW-CIO. Only provisions affecting produc tion and maintenance workers are shown. Since the chronology starts with the 1946 agreements, the pro visions reported under that date do not necessarily in dicate changes in prior conditions of employment. The 1946 contracts with Farm Equipment Workers were uniform for all plants covered, but each was signed locally. The UAW-CIO contracts in that year were also local agreements but were not uniform, although they did provide the same general wage increase. In 1950, the UAW negotiated a master agreement. The most recent agreements between FE-UE and the company were to remain in effect until June 30, 1952, without reopening; the master agreement with UAW was to remain in effect until August 23, 1955, with the provision that the wagepayment sections could be canceled on April 15, 1953, under an agreement to negotiate a new incentive system by that date. The current agreements included a cost-ofliving escalator clause and provision for 4-cents-an-hour “annual improvement-factor” increases in August of each year during the life of the agreements. 1946-521 Approximately 60 percent of the employees of the International Harvester Co. were engaged in production and maintenance work at the company’s 212 manufac turing plants located in seven States. The remainder of International Harvester’s 102,000 workers were em ployed in nonmanufacturing activities. Almost all of the production workers were represented by two unions— the United Automobile, Aircraft, and Agricultural Im plement Workers of America (UAW-CIO) and the United Electrical, Radio and Machine Workers of America-Farm Equipment Workers (FE-UE:Ind.). The company, the Nation’s largest producer of farm implements and trac tors, was a vertically integrated organization that mined its own coal, operated steel mills and railroads, and manu factured and distributed its products. The company entered its first collective bargaining agreements with the Farm Equipment Workers Organiz ing Committee (FEWOC-CIO) at its Tractor Works in 1938 in Chicago, and with the United Automobile, Air craft, and Agricultural Implement Workers of America (UAW-CIO) in 1941 at its truck plant at Fort Wayne, Ind. Beginning in 1941, as a result of National Labor Relations Board elections, the FEWOC-CIO was certified as col lective bargaining agent at the company’s plants in East Moline and Rock Falls, 111., and at the West Pullman and McCormick plants in Chicago. AFL Federal Labor Unions were certified at the plants in Milwaukee, Wis., and Rock Island, 111., while the UAW-CIO was certified at the company’s plant in Springfield, Ohio. In 1942, the company made collective-bargaining agreements with FEWOC, the AFL Federal Labor Unions, and the UAWCIO; these contracts followed a strike, conciliation of the dispute by the National Defense Mediation Board, and a National War Labor Board Directive Order on the issues over which the parties were unable to agree. During subsequent years and the years following the war period, the company’s remaining plants were organized. Currently, the Farm Equipment Workers (FE), which became a division of the United Electrical, Radio, and Machine Workers of America (UE) in October 1949, represents 28,000 workers in 10 plants;3 the UAW-CIO, 1952-53 Negotiations for a new agreement were begun in the spring of 1952 by the International Harvester Co. and the Farm Equipment Division of the United Electrical, Radio and Machine Workers of America (FE-UE). When no settlement was reached by the expiration date of the previous contract, which had been extended from June 30 to August 20, 1952, a work stoppage occurred. For purposes and scop e o f the wage ch ro n o lo g y series see D ecem ber 1948. The Lousiville, K y., plant is cou n ted tw ice since the FE-UE represents the em ployees in the m achining and assem bly division, while U AW represents em ployees in the fou n d ry . On N ov. 2, 1949, both unions were expelled from the CIO. The CIO did n ot officia lly recogn ize the merger and therefore expelled the unions individually. Monthly Labor R eview , 1 On August 21,1952, the stoppage became effective in 8 of the 10 plants having contracts with this union— three in Chicago, three others in Illinois, one in Indiana, and one in Kentucky. Final agreement was not reached until November 15, 1952. Ratification by the union membership followed, and most of the workers returned to the plants 2 days later. Two plants with FE-UE con tracts, which had not been affected by the strike, were also covered by the new agreement. All employees covered by the new contract re ceived a 3-cent cost-of-living adjustment, effective in the first pay period worked after September 1, 1952. The annual improvement-factor clause was continued, so that all employees received a 4-cent increase in the first pay period worked after August 21,1952. In addition to this 7 cents which all workers received, employees classified above Grade III obtained supplemental increases varying from 1 to 5 cents an hour, thus bringing their rate struc ture up to that negotiated in 1950 by the United Auto mobile Workers (CIO). Additional vacation benefits were granted and the method of determining vacation pay was revised. The new agreement, effective until June 30, 1955, made no provision for reopening on any matter. The UAW-CIO agreement, effective until August 1955, like wise contained no reopening provision. 1953-57 In 1953, after the United Automobile, Aircraft and Agricultural Implement Workers of America (UAW-CIO) contracts with major automobile companies were re opened on the question of the conversion of their costof-living escalator clauses to the revised Consumer Price Index of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the union pro posed that similar changes be made in its agreement with the International Harvester Co.4 In separate negotiations the Farm Equipment Division of the United Electrical, Radio and Machine Workers of America (FE-UE) made similar proposals. The ensuing meetings between the com pany and the unions resulted in no change in the con tracts. Although the parties failed to agree on a con version formula, cost-of-living adjustments were con tinued by unilateral company action. The company and the UAW, which as a result of National Labor Relations Board elections had become the sole bargaining agent for all units covered by this chronology, began negotiations for a new agreement on July 11, 1955. When settlement was not reached by the contract expiration date of August 23, a work stoppage occurred at 18 plants in six States.5 Final agreement on a new contract was not reached until September 16, 1955; ratification was completed by September 19. The new 3-year national agreement provided for a supplemental unemployment benefit plan similar to and contingent upon those negotiated with the Ford Motor Company and the General Motors Corporation; a general wage raise and an increase in the annual improvement factor; additional increases for specified groups of skilled workers and for dayworkers in the five top labor grades; elimination of the area wage differential at five plants; increased vacation for certain categories of employees; 1 additional paid holiday; and liberalized insurance and pension plans. The contract, to be in force from September 16, 1955, through July 31, 1958, could be reopened during this period in regard to the supplemental unemployment benefit plan and then only in the event o f failure to obtain favorable governmental rulings as stipulated in the agreement. 1957-61 Contract negotiations between the International Harvester Co. and the United Automobile, Aircraft and Agricultural Implement Workers of America (UAW) be gan when the union presented its demands to the com pany on June 3, 1958, about 2 months before the ex piration of their 1955 agreement. The union’s demands were essentially the same as those it had presented to the automobile manufacturers.6 During the negotiations, the UAW proposed a profit-sharing plan in lieu of a wage in crease; the company offered an immediate wage increase and incorporation of the cost-of-living allowance into basic wage rates, but proposed to eliminate future annual improvement-factor and cost-of-living adjustments. When agreement on a new contract was not reached by the end of July, a contract extension agreement continued the quarterly review of the cost-of-living allowance but made the annual improvement-wage-factor inoperative. Negotiations resumed in October when the com pany offered to continue the improvement-factor and cost-of-living allowance adjustments, grant additional wage increases to skilled workers, liberalize supplemental 4 These changes consisted o f a m eth od o f convertin g the es calator clause to the revised in d ex ; in corp ora tion o f part o f the existing cost-of-living allow ance in to base rates; an increase in the annual im provem en t fa ctor; additional increases fo r skilled w orkers; and pension im provem ents.

In return, the company was to have, among other things, the unilateral right to reduce the workweek below 40 hours, schedule plant shut downs for vacations, exclude future wage increases in computing the night-shift bonus, change some seniority International Harvester Co. and the United Auto mobile, Aerospace, and Agricultural Implement Workers of America (UAW)7 opened negotiations on August 2 to replace the contract expiring October 1,1961. The union bargaining program included an increase in the annual improvement-factor, wage advances tied to the Consumer Price Index and inequity adjustments to practices, and share increased hospital insurance costs. The latter group of company proposals was rejected by the union. On November 6, 1958, when it appeared the January 16, 1959. On January 19, the company resumed equalize wage rates at the company’s seven parts depots, a moving allowance, improved noncontributory health insurance benefits, higher retirement benefits, liberalized supplemental unemployment benefits, and higher sep aration payments. On September 14, the union revised these initial demands in line with the benefits recently negotiated at General Motors,8 and on September 25, the production, and by the end of the month, when most company made its first counter offer of wage and ben locals had ratified the contract, the men had returned to efit improvements generally similar to those in the General Motors settlement. In addition, the company parties would not reach agreement, the UAW served notice of cancellation of the contract extension. A week later, a work stoppage suspended operations at 15 plants. Agreement on a new contract was not reached until work. The agreement continued the improvement-factor and cost-of-living escalator clauses of the previous con tract, incorporated 15 cents of the cost-of-living al proposed changes in the incentive system and the sub contracting clause. Rejection of the company offer came 2 days later because, “ it fell far short in the SUB and health and welfare sections in terms of the General Motors settle lowance into basic rates, provided additional increases for about 3,600 skilled workers, and added a fourth week of vacation after 25 years of service. The first improve ment-factor increase was made retroactive to August 23, 1958, and subsequent increases were scheduled to go in to effect September 14, 1959, and October 3, 1960. The 1959 agreement also increased supplemental unemployment benefits and extended the maximum ment.” The union also objected to the company’s insistance on “ basic changes” in the incentive system.9 Although agreement was not reached by October 1, the expiration date of the existing contract, the contract was extended indefinitely subject to a 24-hour cancella tion notice by either party. On October 9, the company made a new proposal period for such benefits. Employees on short workweeks were made eligible for benefits even though they could not qualify for State unemployment compensation that would have provided further improvements in hospital-medical-surgical benefits, SUB benefits, and in creased life insurance and weekly disability benefits for employees at the upper end of the wage structure. benefits. Previously, receipt of such benefits had been a condition of eligibility. The parties agreed to continue company contributions to the SUB fund without change. A new separation payment plan, financed from the ex isting SUB fund, was established for workers permanently laid off on or after January 16, 1959. Changes in the pension and health and welfare plans were included in the revised agreement. Increased pension benefits, including benefits for those already retired, were made retroactive to October 1, 1958. The union agreed that in future negotiations it would not request further changes in retirement benefits for those already retired Although the union indicated that the new proposal was closer to its goals than the original offer, it was not sufficiently improved to be acceptable. Union members previously had voted to strike, if necessary, in support of their demands, and the union notified the company, on October 11, of its intention to strike in 5 days unless settlement was reached by that time. On October 15, for the first time in over a decade agreement was reached without a strike. The new 3-year at the time of such future negotiations.

Although the settlement did not provide for a general wage increase August 1964, the UAW held an agricultural implement industry conference in Chicago, on May 21, to draft a collective bargaining program for the industry. A resolu tion supported by conference delegates called for wage during the first year of the contract, the union estimated that the company’s assumption of the employees’ share of the premium for life and sickness and accident bene fits resulted in an immediate savings equal to an increase in pay that averaged about 714 cents an hour. increases, longer vacations with vacation bonuses, more rest periods and coffee breaks, a fully-paid insurance program, increased pension benefits and a reduction in the normal retirement age. The conference placed partic ular emphasis on creating job opportunities, greater protection against the impact of automation and plant relocations, and improved job, health, and income se curity. The conference decided to “ utilize the autoindustrys’ patterns as pressure points, but to deviate from those patterns whenever it was necessary to meet spe cific goals of agricultural implement workers.” 10 Negotiations in the industry began when Inter The agreement added to employee benefits 2 paid holidays, 1 week of paid vacation which could be used as paid absence allowance, paid funeral leave, and the es tablishment of a company-paid tuition refund program. A 40-hour paid absence allowance plan for all employees with 1 year or more of service was established. In lieu of the allowance, an employee with 1 but less than 25 years of service could elect an additional week of vacation and employees with 25 years o f service or more could elect to receive an additional week of vaca tion pay only. national Harvester Co. and the UAW met in Chicago on August 4.
