WORKMEN WERE ABLE TO RETURN to the job of repairing the fire-damaged roof of the Kansas Union Monday without getting wet. Last week's rain forced the men to leave their crow's nest position atop the Union for drier territory inside. The Union roof was damaged in the April 20th fire that caused an estimated $2,000,000 damage to the old-center section.
Workers Vote Not to Strike Med Center
Employes at the University of Kansas Medical Center will remain on the job despite the failure of the Kansas State Finance Council to implement a proposed pay raise.
Lloyd E. Rose, business agent for the union, said the membership of the Public Service Employees Union Local 1132, voted to stay on the job even though the council did not enact the raise by the promised date.
The union has members in the dietary, laundry, housekeeping and building and grounds departments at the Medical Center and some employees at the Kansas State Penitentiary in Lansing.
Rose said Gov. Robert Docking promised that the raise, involving about 27,000 state employees, would be given to the employes by October 1. Docking is chairman of the council.
