Legislation Discussed
At Labor Meeting
A review of legislation con
cerning labor and a benefit to
Oregon residents was presented
to members of the Medford Cen
tral Labor council Thursday by
J. D. McDonald, president of the
Oregon State Labor council, of
Portland,
He also made several remarks
about what union members
should expect at the special ses
sion of the legislature to be call
ed Oct. 15.
A review of the state conven
tion of the AFL at Klamath Falls
was given. McDonald discussed
resolutions passed at the con
vention he termed as important
forward steps in the labor move
ment. He urged establishment of a
Medford Speakers' bureau by
the Medford council similar to
the one now operating in Port
land. Under this system, several
council members would be ap
pointed to each important sub
ject concerning community prob
lems. The speakers would be avail
able to any organization and not
only explain labor's position on
problems but would be able to
contribute manpower for com
munity projects such as voter
registration and the United Med
ford Crusade.
McDonald is currently touring
all labor councils in the state to
review legislation passed in the
last session
