V i f '; p. i V' 1 ( i I 2 PRINTERS FOR AMPLE CITY'S NEED, ION Declaring there to be an adequate supply of Journeymen printers in the city to meet the needs of the- prlnt- ; Ing trades, and asserting" it to be the 1 duty of the employer to instruct ap prentices with private funds, Mult nomah Typographical Union No. 68, hasjfljed a petition with the school , board which takes Issue in part with the petition urging the establishment -of a department of printing at the - Benson Polytechnic j school which waa presented to the board a week ago !by the Portland Newspaper Pub lishers' association and the Portland brartch of the United Typothetae. BOABD adopts POLICY After a hearing on the petition of the employing 'printers, the school board adopted a resolution declaring It to be ,the policy of the board to consider the recommendations of a committee of three authorized to report concerning the equipment and administration of a school of printing. This committee In : eludes a member of the school board, a representative of the Portland News paper Publishers' association, and a rep resentative of the United Typothetae. Director Orton Is the board member of this committee. In; its petition the Typographical union urges that a representative of the union bo included on this committee and sug gest that, if the committee be increased to five members, a representative of the Allied Printing Trades Council be added. The Typographical union petition fur ther urges against the discontinuance of the printing department at Jefferson high; school. rEIJSTERS' tJITION STATEMENT The petition reads in part as follows : W maintain that the number of print ers meets the requirements of the in dustry. As to apprentices, we deny that we. In any manner, impose restrictions so that at the present time there are onlyi 34 apprentices employed in this city.: Your petitioners further maintain that In the past few years the union has found ft necessary to insist that em ployers shall either give their apprentices more thorough Instruction or not em ploy them at all. which may account for the small number employed. But we further maintain that It is the duty of the employer to Instruct apprentices with! private funds. 400 JO r It K YM K Ji EMPLOYED The petition recites that there are at present 400 journeymen printers regular ly employed In Portland and 61 journey men j not regularly employed. The petition continues: J Your petitioners, 'who have spent many years at . the printing business, have made a survey of the printing depart ment of the Jefferson high school of this -'ty. and have ascertained the following facts: That there is now available room for linotype machines and such addi tional equipment as would be needed to bring that department up-to-the-minute as a vocational school (Insofar as printing is concerned) : there is also room for a bindery, where girls could e Instructed in that branch. We admit additional equipment should be purchased, but We deny that that school lacks either necessary curriculum, or competent Instructors, as your com mittee Is informed a complete vocational course has been planined under the direc tion of Hopkin Jenkins, one of the best known principals In the Northwest, and was filed in April, 1918, with the super intendent of schools, and, we are in formed, approved as a course coming under the congressional Smith-Hughes act. COMPETENCY JTOT ISSUE Aj! to the competency of the instruct ors, their work for the school district speaks for them, and we sumblt that if they have been incompetent, the re flection would be equally upon your honorable board for retaining thern, as we are Informed they hare continued in the employ of the school board for the past five years and moje, without one word of complaint. Your petitioners respectfully submit that taxpayers' money should not be ured to move the printing department from where it is now located in the Jefferson high school for the following reasons t . At the Benson school girls would be prohibited from receiving instruction (seven girls, we are informed, are now studying printing at Jefferson). Women sre employed on linotype machines and In the proof room of both the Oregoniah and The Journal, and In the proof room of the Telegram and he News, and girls should be equally entitled to receive this : instruction, tr they so desire. 1 REPRESENTATION 18 ASKED ; And your petitioners respectfully re- I quest, in the interest of fair play to ail concerned, tnat a immoer or tms union, and If your honorable board desired to make the committee five, another mem ber ivrn 1 1 ,t t council, be added to the number, making up the committee appointed to investi gate the needs of the printing industry at this time. , Respectfully submitted, j ! W. E. KIMSEY, President Multnomah Typographical Union No. 8. - GEORGE H. HOWELL,, s Secretary Multnomah Typographical Union No. 68.
