Tentative Agreement, Subject
to Ratification, Reached to
Told Affair in La Grande,
Subject to ratification by the various
union labor organisation: of Pendle
ton, and on condition that in La
bor Day in Eastern Oregon la cele
brated In Pendleton, It seems an as
sured fact thnt Paker, La Grande and
Pendleton will cooperate this year In
staging a mammoth celebration of la
bor's holiday in Tji Orunde.
This agreement was tentatively
agreed on Sunday when a confereneo
was held here between representatives
of the Central Labor Council of ji
Grande and representatives of five 01-
Kantzutlons of Pendleton.
Paker had the celebration last year,
und La, Grande wants to be host to or
ganized labor this year. La C.r' nde'"
representatives, X A. GJermo, J. C.
Murphv and George H. Desch promis
ed the cooperation of La Grande In
assuring that Pendleton may have the
honor next year.' The question will
be referred to the local organization
1
units,
ment
and If they ratify it, the aeree-
reached yesterday will stand, i
Tho Pendleton organizations repre
sented in the conference were tho
painters, carpenters, musicians, culin
ary workers and electricians.
"All of Kaslern Oregon is taking
part In the La Grande celebration this
year, and Indications are that we will
have an even 'bigger und better' time
than.ever,' the Ln Grande representa
tives said yesterday. "While Pendle
ton o far has made no definite ar
rangements wo hne to have the same
support on our celebration that we In
tend to give Pendleton during the
Itound-l'p, and during the labor cele
bration which will be held here In
ma."
An attractive program Is being ar
ranged for Labor Day at Iji Grande.
An elaborate parade, speeches by j
prominent orators, field sports, n base-
ball game and dancing are some of the i
features of the day. A booklet cover- i
lug the program and containing a !
complete fraternal and industrial dl-!
rectory of linker, La, Grande and Pen-
rileton is also being prepared by the ,

VThere are still some wild ones In i
La Grande," the visitors said before
