More Codes Adopted Here By Various Groups
Retail grocers of Monroe and West Monroe formed a parish wide organization at a meeting on the Virginia hotel roof. About 100 distributors signed an agreement aligning with the president's re employment plan and eight hour daily limits. Separate groups of restaurant operators and druggists formed associations to implement the recovery program and set hours and wages. Nurses in the Monroe district adopted a shorter eight hour shift and $4 per eight hour period, with extra for certain cases. Lumber dealers sent a telegram to Roosevelt and Johnson pledging full cooperation and adherence to the code provisions.
