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. Lacombe II. iii Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis C o n t e n t s Page Introduction............................................................................................................................................................. 1 1946-52 .................................................................................................................................................................... 1 1952- 53 ............................................................................................................................................................. 1 1953- 57 ............................... 2 1957-61 .................................................................................................................................................................... 2 1961-64.................................................................................................................................................................... 3 1964-67 .................................................................................................................................................................... 4 1967-70 .................................................................................................................................................................... 5 Tables: A.

IN REGARD TO VIOLATION OF SEC. 5 OF THE FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION ACT Docket 914Z Complaint, Oct. 10, 1980-Final Order Dec. , 1984 This Order affrms in part and reverses in part the 1982 Initial Decision ofthe Adminis- trative Law Judge C'AW") and orders that it be adopted as the "Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law of the Commission, except as is inconsistent with the accompanying Opinion. " The ALl had ruled that a Chicago, Ill. manufacturer of farm machinery had violated Sec. 5 of the FTCA by failing to adequately disclose to consumers that its gasoline-powered tractors were subject to a safety hazard known as "fuel geysering," even though the company knew of the potential danger. While the Commission agreed that the company s failure to disclose the safety risk constituted an unfair trade practice, it ruled that, contrary to the AW's finding, the practice could not, as a matter of law , be considered deceptive since there was no representation , practice or omission likely to mislead consumers found in this case. Although the Commission ruled that the manufacturer has violated the FTCA, it upheld the ALJ's decision not to order further remedial action because the company no longer manufactures gasoline-powered tractors and because the company s 1980 voluntary notification program had already provided as much relief as could be expected from a Commission order.

  • Cub Cadet Brand EN
    Press release Cub Cadet: A premium brand by MTD The quintessence of MTD when it comes to performance: Cub Cadet is the leading garden equipment brand in the premium segment. Saarbrücken, June 28, 2007 Within the MTD corporate group, the Cub Cadet brand embodies the very best in garden equipment. When uncompromising quality, performance and ease of use are called for, Cub Cadet brand products are the tools of choice. Designed for semi-professional and professional users, they are the expression of a simple product philosophy: always be a bit better. Cub Cadet tools are only available from specialist retailers. The Cub Cadet product range includes a lawn mower, various lawn tractors, garden tractors, compact tractors, zero-turn mowers, a 4x4 diesel multipurpose transport vehicle and a range of quads. History In the early 1960s, International Harvester, a manufacturer of agricultural machinery, automobiles and trucks in Chicago, developed an entirely new line of tractors. International Harvester met the increasing demand for garden equipment for private gardens with the Cub Cadet product line. The first Cub Cadet tractors were built in 1961 – they were available in seven-, ten- and twelve horsepower versions. These were joined by numerous add-ons and accessories, such as dozer blades, snow blowers and trailers. Cub Cadet tractors quickly made a name for themselves in the USA, becoming popular products among consumers. At the end of the 1970s, however, International Harvester stopped producing these tractors. MTD took over Cub Cadet in 1981, and Cub Cadet has been part of the renowned international MTD Group ever since. MTD adopted the brand concept and refined it even further.

Because the majority of corporate archives are closed to the public, we offer only a small sampling of this unique form of public history.

This decrease was due primarily to two reasons, the lower prices which our farmer customers received for their products during the greater part of the year including the principal selling seasons, and the change-over to a new line of tractors and related implements involving interruptions in production and lag in sales.
