Bills to Soften Labor Laws Are Defeated
Little Rock March 3 Two attempts to soften Arkansas labor laws were defeated by the state house. One bill would have reduced penalties for violence in strikes. another sought to exempt industries in interstate commerce from shop prohibition. Rep. Dave Thompson urged reclassifying strike violence as a misdemeanor. An administration bill to apply sales tax to alcohol was withdrawn for possible amendment. House passed higher fees for birth certificates and approved workmen’s compensation and public service commission appropriations. A $2 million federal fund for state hospital construction and the $26,006,000 Arkansas education department appropriation were received along with Governor McMath’s anti-lynching proposal.
