1 MEDFORD JITL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, FRIDAY, 'AUGUST 26, 1932. PAGE THREE lH PLEDGES DAIRY INDUSTRY EMPTOR! Convention Favors Tax E) emption Homes, Farms Occupied by Owners Five-Day. Week Indorsed ASTORIA, Ore., Aug. 26. APJ With nomination of officers and ad journment expected this afteraoop, the Oregon, State Federation of Labor convention went Into Its concluding sessions here today after having dealt late yesterday with a vast accumu lation of resolutions and other busi ness. It appeared assured that Port land would get the 1933 annual con vention. One of the most important of the legislative actions reached Thursday was a statement of policy pledging Vie federation to 'give all possible support to the dairy Industry."

Private and corporate In comes In excess of $5000 a year would be assessed additionally to account for any loss by relieving the small home from taxation. Additional taxes would be levied, too, against bequests or Inheritances in excess of 910,000. "" The five-day week was Indorsed, and the federation demanded that all state work be done by day labor at the prevailing scale and on a six-hour basis. Another resolution opposed reduction in wages and lengthening ox hours of government employes. Urges Bridge Building Payment of wages on state bridge work at prevailing scales and at not teas than 75 cents an hour for men handling mechanical tools, was favor ed, and the federation urged the state to take Immediate steps to bor row money from the reconstruction finance corporation for the building of five timber bridges on the Oregon Coast highway.. Another resolution opposed legisla tion which would reduce the wage and living standards of postal work-era. JUSTICE RESIGNS TOLEDO, Ore.. Aug, 26. (IP) C. S.
