Eight hour city contract test under Smith ordinance
The Cedar street contracts will test the $1.50 for eight hours labor rule. Mayor Wise must enforce it, with courts to decide constitutionality if contractors resist. Diefenbacher says he will pay $1.50 for eight hours if required, while Geis brothers claim nothing explicit in specs about hours or wages. West street work may raise the issue again as the first bids under the Smith measure. A separate note: Dr Livingston offers free consultations at the Massillon hotel on April 4 and 5 following a Mr Spencer letter relaying successful treatment.
