Portland, Ore.—The Oregon State Federation of Labor nas asked the con ference of the beads of international labor unions affiliated with the Ameri can Federation of Labor, which opens its session In Washington, D. C., De cember 13, to inchn e in any program that they may promulgate as a result cf the failure of the industrial con ference a plank memorializing the Federal Government to continue and elaborate, If necessary, its Thrift and War Savings Stamps movement as a permanent national policy. The Ore gon Federation also has asked all other State Federations of Labor in the United States to make a similar re quest of the conference. President O. R. Hartwig of the Oregon Federation signed the letter, which follows: "Inasmuch as the United States Gov- rnment is engaged in advancing the War Savings Stamps campaign in a vigorous manner, and inasmuch as the War Savings .Stamps are the best pos •able forms of Investment for working men and women, particularly organ ized workers, and also because the pos session of War Savings Stamps by workers while defending their rights either while out on strike or otherwise, gives them a degree of security that ordinarily they do not possess, there fore, the State Federation of Labor of Oregon makes the following sugges tion : That your Federation join with us in urging upon the national con ference that has bcfen called in Wash ington, D. C., by the American Federa tion of Labor, the advisabiiity of in cluding in any program that they may promulgate, a War Savings Stamps plank or provision. "We feel that this will materially strengthen the position of organiz'd labor and will also give us the sinews of war when most needed. Trusting, therefore, that you will find it possible to Join us in urging upon the national conference this provision, and thank ing you In advance for concurring in this suggestion, we beg to remain.” CITY AND COUNTRY Local news on every page of this Post.
