Stores Make Meatcutters New Offer For 48 Hours (Continued from Page One) to observe all legal holidays by "closing of markets." The proposals would become ef fective during the payroll week when union membership ratifies them, Henninger added. Hern smun, Migcne, secretary of the Oregon Federated Butchers was out of town when called Thurs day in reference to the new em ployers proposals. Most recent offer by the em ployers had offered $98 for a 48 hour week, two weeks paid vaca tion, seven paid holidays, premium time after 6 p.m. and time and a half on Sunday. Henninger said the "new offer came because "we (employers) recognize the fact that our em- Eloyees are vitally interested in the ighest weekly take-home pay pos sible." lie said the employers were desirous of providing such salary to "retain the most effici ent help possible in our markets." The employer spokesman added "We realize that possibly the chain stores can operate on a different basis with less qualified help, be cause of their method of distribu ting meats from a central meat warehouse located m Portland." He pointed out that independent stores are supplied locally. He said Medford and Grants Pass Independent Meat Dealer Employers completed negotiations last week for a 20-month contract at a weekly scale of $98 for jour neymen meat cutters, based on a 48-hour week. oers o persons hmi "- Ineral Home.
