I he Central Labor Council, Astoria; Federated Trades Council, Port
land; Fishermen, Astoria, and the Garment Workers, Portland, voted unani
inously for the changes, but did not give the number of votes cast.
A union in Troutdale voted unanimously for the changes, but failed to
ow.ke known what union it was. This is also the case with a union in Oregon
City, with the exception that it voted 20 for and 38 against the first propo
sition, and 50 for and 8 against the second proposition.
The returns, therefore, give an overwhelming majority of the votes
cast in favor of the changes.
