Labor U nions Announce Support for City s $ 112.8 Bond Program
- program '
\ Wednesday
Labor union support for
the $112.8 million oily bond
as announced
by representa-
tives of the Southwestern
Oklahoma Building and
Construction Trade* Coun-
cil and Carpenters Union
Local 329.
L. P. Williams, business
manager of the construc-
tion trades council, said
letters are heing directed
to the 21 local building
trades unions affiliated
wiih the council in Oklaho-
ma County.
He said the local union*
will be asked to urge their
membership to vote "yes"
Tuesday on all 12 issues in
the program. The 21 lo-

L D. Newton, business
representative and finan-

Newton said letters are

union membership ex-

vote “yes."
Newton said the carpen-

City and the growth of the

parks, streets, recreations,
sewers, airports, conven-

controversy in northeast
Oklahoma City, Newton
said, "we are interested in
getting something donp
and getting it done
immediately, and we think
that's what the bond pro-
gram will do.
"We think downtown
Oklahoma City needs to be
brought alive and that this
bond program, the conven-
tion cpnter and other is-
sues affecting downtown,
will do that."
Williams said the con-
