CONGO PUSHED TOWARD CIVIL WAR

As the Pacific Tribune went to press indications
were that the colonial powers along with their stooges
in the Congo, had pushed the newly founded republic
to the edge of civil war.

They have been aided in this by the role of the UN
forces ‘who Tuesday illegally seized the central radio
station and also took control of airports, thus depriving
the legitimate Lumumba government access to them.

3000 hospital employees
urge end of arms race

Canada should adopt an independent position in world
affairs and every effort should be made to end the-arm-
aments race “as stockpiling of nuclear warheads and
weapons is no longer a deterrent.”

This was the stand taken in
a resolution passed by Van-
ecouver Hospital Employees
Union Local 180 at its recent
eonvention in Burnaby.

The union has an = approxi-
mate membership of 3000 and
is an affiliate of the CLC and
NUPE,

The resolution also asks
that Canada give world lead-
ership towards total disarma-
ment by setting an example.
It urges that money now
squandered on arms be used

OBITUARY

LYDIA TANCHE

The progressive labor move-
ment of British Columbia lost
a staunch and _ courageous
fighter last week in the death
of Lydia Tanche of White
Rock in her 58th year.

Despite the handicap and
suffering of a paralytic stroke
suffered nearly five years ago,
Lydia Tanche continued to
give all the effort she could
to the cause of labor and to
promote the widest circula-
tion of the labor press, and
particularly the Pacific Trib-
une.

Lydia Tanche is survived
by her husband, John Tanche
of White Rock, two sons and
one daughter. Funeral ser-
vices -were conducted by Leo
Brady (United Fishermen and
Allied Workers Union), who
paid a tribute to her coura-
geous endeavours during long
years of illness. Interment
was at Forest Lawn.

“Why are the Brotherhood

Why are the B.C. Federation

have a democratic vote for the
union of our choice.

Meanwhile the Nanaimo
