When's the picnic, mom?

“Hey, mom! when’s the picnic?”

“What picnic, junior?”

“The Annual United Labor Picnic.

You know the one I

oo] : mean, where they have the ponies, free ice cream for the kids,

all those yummy hot dogs and things to eat, kid’s races .

you know the picnic, mom?”

“Yes, of course, junior, I just wasn’t thinking. Its on

Sunday, August 5. This year it has switched back to Con-
federation Park in Burnaby. They have a swell new picnic

area there, with a swimming pool and nice shady trees and
it’s going to be better than ever.”
“August 5? gee mom, that’s a whole month away!”
“Yes, junior, but like all good things, its worth waiting
for. I heard this year they are having folk art and craft dis-
plays, folk singers, volley ball and just no end of surprises

for the whole family.”

“I'm going to mark it on the calendar, mom — Sunday,
August 5, Confederation Park, 11 a.m. I’m going to tell all
my friends, too, so that they can bring their moms and dads

and have lots of fun.”

TRADE

Continued from page l

Canada to drastically revise
its trade patterns to meet the
changing world was a report
this week from the London
Times.

The report said that Aus-
tralia and China are expect-
ed to negotiate a long-term
agreement soon. The agree-
ment is said to be based on
the sale of Australian wheat
at a rate guaranteed to match

or undercut credit terms
offered by any other coun-
try.

The London Times report
indicates that Australia is not
only offering more _ liberal

accepting Chinese goods in
return, two conditions more
favorable than Canadian
terms.

BATTLE ON IN SASK.

By NORMAN BRUDY

REGINA — Saskatche-
wan’s Medicare plan goes
into effect July 1.

As this is written the
doctors and the govern-
ment are meeting in a last

effort to come to terms.

This meeting was organized
by the Saskatchewan Hospital
Association which is faced
with the problem of trying to
keep the province’s hospitals
operating with only 239 out
of the province’s 900 doctors,

Obituary

Following a long and pain-
ful illness, Rattan Singh Bin-
ing of Lake Cowichan passed.
away on June 24 in his 49th
year.

Born in the Punjab, India,
in the village of Khela, Rat-
tan Singh Bining came to
Canada in 1932. A lumber
and sawmill worker in Van-
couver Island areas, he was
well known in the mills and
camps in Victoria, Port Al-
berni and Lake’ Cowichan.
Rattan Singh and his family
have been residents of Lake
Cowichan for many years.

During all his years in
Canada Rattan Singh Bining
was a staunch supporter of
the progressive labor move-
ment and labor press, and in
all activities contributing to
the economic and social ad-
vancement of his own Indian
people. Rattan was a close
friend and collaborator with
Darshan Singh Sanga, a bril-
liant young Canadian author,
who returned to India a
number of years ago.

Rattan Singh Bining is sur-
vived by his wife and son,
a brother and grandchildren
in Canada, and by relatives
in his Punjab homeland.

The Pacific Tribune staff
extends their deepest sym-
pathy to his widow and fam-
ily in their sad bereavement.
In the untimely passing of
Rattan Singh Bining, pro-
gressive labor in British Col-
umbia has also suffered the
loss of a stout-hearted fighter
for social justice.

This article on Saskatche-
wan’s medicare plan was
written last week before the
‘plan went into operation. It
gives the background of the
battle now going on in that
prairie provihice.

who will provide so-called
emergency service only, after
July 1.

Prior to Friday’s meeting
Dr. Dalgleish, spokesman for
the Saskatchewan College of
Physicians and Surgeons, stat-
ed that the government must
substantially change the act.

“This does not mean slight
variations in the text of the
various sections,” he said,
“but rather it means a com-
plete rewriting of the act
from the title right through
the amendments.”

This indicated the arrogant
attitude of the college and its
complete disregard of the
wishes of the people of the
province.

_ Premier Lloyd said the gov_

ment would not aecept such
conditions for the meeting but
“would be prepared to frame
-amendments which would
further emphasize the prin-
ciple. of non-interference in
the professional judgment of
the individual physician.

Up to this date the college
has never responded to the
government proposals to in-
dicate its specific objections to
the act, or any substitute pro-
posals.

The doctors and their politi- -

cal friends are complaining
of ‘“‘dictatorship” and point to
section 28a.and 49 of the act.
“Section 28A,’ Premier
Lloyd explained “is a stan-
dard type clause for insur-
ance legislation. Our concern
was simply and wholly to
protect the rights of benefici-
aries under the act. If suit-
able guarantees can be offer-
ed by the college such as the

provision of services to bene- -

ficiaries without discrimina-
ton the government would de-
lete ths section from the act.”

As for Section 49, the pre-
mier said, ‘‘we don’t believe
that a court would give to the
parts of this section the inter-
