Labor Day 1955 Issues Beset Cincinnati Voters
City Councilman Al Jordan outlines two key economic concerns for Cincinnati workers on Labor Day 1955. He frames the issues as affecting wages and living costs, urging voters to consider how policy impacts their pocketbooks.
Labor Day vote to decide on Ohio payroll tax conflict
Ohio CIO Council members urge voters to choose on November 8 1955 between a liberal unemployment compensation law with higher benefits or the newer State Legislature wage tax. The Cincinnati payroll tax expires November 30 1955 and a permanent tax seems likely unless voters elect anti tax councilmen and pass a real estate levy. The writer argues payroll tax is unfair regressive and should follow in line with ability to pay principles of taxation.
