Cafe Owners Oppose Union Organization
Beckley cafe operators reject organizing by the American Federation of Labor Hotel and Restaurant Employes International Alliance. Karl Taylor of Leslie's Dine cites opposition and says owners want no union contract, while AFL rep Charles Raleigh plans to form a local branch and push a 40 hour week with a $2 minimum wage and overtime. Local restaurant men meeting at the Goodie Shop deny union coercion and favor remaining nonunion.
