Illness of union organizer Joe McCarthy has again delayed the seven mouth old struggle of the Radcliffe maids to unionize by forcing postponement of yesterday's meeting between Annex officials and union leaders. McCarthy, representative of the American Federation of Labor's Building Employees Union, was heading negotiations with the College for the staff.
"We'd hoped a contract would come out of the meeting," the maids' representative, Josephine Coleman, said, when notified of the delay, "but now we'll have to wait until after vacation."
The new union will protest a Radcliffe proposal to retire all staff members over 65, ask for a 42 hour work week, and request that all unused sick leaves carry over whole from year to year instead of being halved.
