Rates Set For Union Notices By Eight Point Type
The committee’s recommendations set price rules for notices to be printed in eight point type with eight cents per line for later insertions. The move, approved by a membership referendum and executive committee, reflects costs of production, publisher service, and publication responsibility. The aim is to keep rates low while ensuring business viability.
Price adjustment stance described for future release
The text notes that after careful study a price advance might be necessary in time, but for now the rate will be kept at about half the California Press's expansion. It emphasizes a temporary hold on further increases while planning ahead.
