Democrats Stand Firm On FEPC At Ohio Convention
Ohio Democrats at a one day state convention took a firm civil rights stance while hedging on highway tax increases. Governor Lausche urged a weight and distance based truck tax and higher gasoline tax but delegates avoided his full plan. The event endorsed Stevenson for president and Sparkman for vice president while choosing 25 presidential electors and approving a platform favoring a user pay approach to road funding. The governor pledged cooperation with all state candidates and warned against powerful lobbying while calling for stronger coal strip mine laws and anti pollution enforcement. He also highlighted a hospital building program and public health aims. Separate ordinance fixes the city manager’s pay in Middletown at 7 percent above standard scale with emergency provisions and an August 5 effective date.
