"If any employer tried to make his employees work as long as I do, I'd call a strike," Miss Pla mondon said. The 29-year-old brunette is the first lected president of the 30,000-member council, Miss Plamondon, who also is rep- resentative for the United Packing- house Workers Union, has a four- point program to improve labor conditions in the region. The top item is to press the new civic administration to abol- ish the by-law which prohibits the distribution of pamphlets. Miss Plamondon admitted this is a per- sonal point since she has been ar- rested a half-dozen times for dis- tributing literature. The second project she wi 's to achieve is equal pay for equal work. Miss Plamondon can see no reason for women to receive less pay than men for the same job. One of the tasks she has lined up for herself is to convince the city to launch a public works project to create jobs. "Unemployment is the biggest problem we face to- day. I'm watchnig the new admin- istration to see if it will be fa- vorable to our recommendations." The last point in Miss Plamon- dons program is to create better co-operation among the Congress of Industrial Organizations, with which she is affiliated; the Ameri- can Federatios of Labor, and the Canadian and Catholic Confedera- tion of Labor. Miss Plamondon got her start in rapher for the Packinghouse stenographer for a steel com in 1945, and was dismissed. ON PICKET LINE She Went 10 Wolk a3 a sttuok ers.
