AFL Would Revise Arkansas Electoral Vote System
Hot Springs May 16 The Arkansas Federation of Labor AFL proposed revising the electoral system to elect a national president by popular vote. The resolution was adopted at the federation's annual convention. It also urged Truman to lift the Israel arms embargo and to terminate the National Labor Relations Board while condemning the American Newspaper Publishers Association for aggression against the International Typographical Union. The AFL urged abolishing poll taxes in Arkansas, opposed a home rule amendment, and called for federal action to expose and prosecute those who would overthrow the government. It backed unionizing Arkansas public school teachers, planned a statewide educational program for farm labor, endorsed a 75 cent minimum wage, a 40 hour week plus overtime, and opposed repeal of the state ad valorem tax.
