SCOPE OF THE EVIDENCE:
1.
The Aeronautical Chamber of Commerce presented a wage
survey covering all branches of the aeronautical industry com-
prehended in the Notice of Hearing. This survey was made by
the Chamber and included 32,792 employees of an estimated total
of approximately 35,000 in the industry (R 32, 34). The survey
was prepared and conducted in a manner calculated to give proper
representation to (1) the various types of equipment, (2) the
uses to which the equipment was destined, (3) size of companies,
and (4) geographical distribution of the industry (R 24, 161-2).
The wage data presented were classified by 5-cent wage intervals,
broken down in appropriate tables to reveal wage differentials
between products, between military and commercial equipment, and
between geographical areas classified as East, Middle-West and
West (Exhibits F and G). The original information was supplied
by the members of the industry in reply to a questionnaire
which colled for representative payroll data for one week in
the month of January 1938 (See Exhibit P for a copy of the form).
The representative character of the survey, its adequacy and
accuracy is conceded by the International Association of
Machinists in their supplementary brief, P. 2. The Board finds
-
no reason for questioning the authentic and representative
character of the Chamber's wage data and concurs in the con-
clusion reached by the Machinists' Union.
In a supplementary tabulation (Exhibit H) the Chamber
has supplied a breakdown of its wage data by states, based on
the original data presented at the hearing (See R 97-8).
2.
The United Automobile Workers submitted wage data on
approximatoly ten manufacturers (Exhibit 0); and in a supple-
mental brief submitted union wage rates in effect in certain
automobile factories.
