Mr. Mike Smith: It wasn't an easy decision, but we've been asking for a decent wage for years. Now at lastpeople are beginning to listen to us. We' re only asking for a 25 percent increase in our wages. 250dollars a week, that' s all. It' s a pity so many people have to be inconvenienced by our strike. Butplease don' t blame us. Blame the government for refusing our claim.
Mr. Tom Brown:
It' s totally unreasonable to demand so much money when we are trying desperately to controlinflation. If wages go up, so do prices. If we gave in to the electricity workers, all the other unionswould want more, with the inevitable result that the crisis would become uncontrollable. What we're trying to impress upon everybody is that inflation hurts everybody, especially the poor people.
We offer the electricity workers a lO percent increase. And that' s already too much. My stand atthis meeting will be to persuade the Union to see reason.
Mr. Bob Davis:
Everybody will be hurt by this strike, including the electricity workers themselves. The economy will be destroyed and many people will lose their jobs. Already people are saying that the bigunions have too much power and shouldn't be allowed to strike..Of...course the electricity workerswant to get more money. Don't we all?
Mrs. Baker:
My opinion is "Get the Army in". All the power managed by the army.The strikers should be thrown into prison. That' s what this country needs. Why must we all sufl
just because a few men are greedy? If they don' t like their jobs, nobody' s forcing them to worlhey should try and live on 50 dollars a week like I have to. Perhaps they' d keep their moutlshut then.
Miss Slater:
Let' s face it. It' s neither here nor there. The electricity workers are in a strong position. Perhaps we can' t do anything about it. What I say is : let them have their 9~50 dollars so we can rerunto work. I mean, the government wastes the taxpayers' money all the time on trivial things. How can anyone say 250 dollars is "too much" ? Pop singers get more. Nurses get less. It' s just one otthose things.
Now match each of the persons (36 -40)to the appropriate statement.
