Printers Vote Defeat In Union Plan at July Meeting
The Columbia Typographical Union voted 279 to 242 against a plan proposed by J L Foding and supported by Joseph B Goodkey to fund a relief and unemployment program. The defeated plan would have added 25 cents a month to dues to finance a teller fund and up to five dollars per unemployed married member weekly, with caps for benefits. The alternate proposal urged a nine of ten cent dues increase for a relief fund and weekly six dollar relief for long-standing unemployed members, with annual and waiting-list limits.
