California Young GOP rejects right to work proposal
At a three day policy conference in Monterey about 300 delegates voted 2 to 1 against endorsing a right to work ballot measure for 1954. Lucy Schafer sponsored the proposal. Joseph Creighton led opposition. The gathering backed records supporting fair employment practices act and a major constitutional revision reducing elective offices. They also urged a state revenue department and liquor control, and favored lowering the voting age to 18. Rep Joe Holt cited AFL President Meany calling Eisenhower unfaithful on Taft Hartley amendments.
