Burnaby library
system favored

BURNABY, B.C.
Supported by a score of rate-
payers’, community and other or-
ganizations, a strong campaign is
being conducted for a Burnaby
public library system.
In next month’s municipal elec-

Peace Council
starts petition

“I am opposed to the planned rearmament of Western Germany
because it would increase the danger of a third world war.” .

This is the wording of a petition now being circulated by B.C.
Peace Council as part of its protest campaign against Canadian par-
ticipation in the plot to restore German militarism. The Petition is

submitted to voters, asking:
you wish a public library system?

Do you favor a $66,000 money by-|
Do you wish the municipal-
ity to take over the North Burnaby

law?

Library Association?
The money bylaw would provide

for a $30,000 building at McKay

and Kingsway, a $20,000 building
at Edmonds and Kingsway and’ a
$15,000 extension to the present
North Burnaby Library.

Among those advocating a “Yes”
vote is William Turner, indepen-
dent candidate for council, who
points out that the cost to ratepay-
ers will be no more than that of
one book a year.

Copper Mountain near
end, claims president

“The life of Copper Mountain is
about one year under present
wages and copper prices,” said L.
T. Postle, president of Granby Con-
solidated Mining, Power and
Smelting Company, in an inter-

view given to local newspapers |

this week. +

Mine-Mill is seeking an increase
in wages at Copper Mountain,
which has returned $4 millions in
dividends to shareholders. Union
negotiators said Postle had told
them the copper-producing prop-
erty “is finished.”

addressed to MPs and copies are
obtainable from the Peace Coun-
cil at 144 West Hastings Street

“As soon as parliament reopens
here.

in January, the government in-
tends.to win final approval of its
plans to rearm West Germany,
which, in spite of all the fine assur-
ances we have had from Adenauer
and the NATO leaders, means the
rebirth of an aggressive Nazi army
of 500,000 men (to start), armed

by Krupp and led by SS murder-

ers such as Kurt Meyer,” states a
press release issued by Ray Gard-
ner, peace council chairman.

“This could well mean a repe-
tition (on a hydrogen-bomb scale)

of the two world wars already)

fought to destroy German militar-
ism, .. . We should have no illu-
sions; the threat is serious and
immediate.”

The council urges all citizens to
write personal letters to MPs pro-
testing against the Paris agree-
ments to rearm West Germany.

As part of its campaign, the
Peace Council intends to publish
daily newspaper ads warning
against the dangers inherent in a
re-armed Germany and has ap-
Ppealed for donations to help fin-
ance these advertisements.

School planning jam
laid to school board

Dr. Joseph Blumes, city dentist
who polled 18,139 votes for school
board last year, announced this
week that he will again stand for
the board as an independent can-
didate in the December 8 civic
elections.

Dr. Blumes charges that the
present board is solely respons-
ible for the “bad jamming in
school planning” recently disclos-
ed by Education Minister Ray Wil-
liston.

Picketing of
hotels urged

Picketing of city hotels practis-
ing racial discrimination was urg-
ed Tuesday this week at Vancou-
ver Labor Council (CCL) following
a report of a survey which showed
five of 25 hotels visited had refus-
ed to serve colored’ persons in
their beer parlors.

Emmett Jones, IWA delegate,
said teams of white and colored
citizens had made the survey to
check on discrimination.

Manager George Cillis of St.
Helen’s Hotel, 1161 Granville,
denied a charge that a waiter in
his beer parlor had refused serv-
ice to an East Indian UBC student,
M. Ather Ali. :
- The university paper Ubyssey re-
ported that Ali was sitting with
four whites, including two women,
when a waiter said, “We don’t
serve mixed couples.”

Cillis declared that colored peo-
ple are just as welcome as whites,
“provided they behave themselves
the same as everyone else.”

Officials of the Beverage Dis-
pensers Union said that any ruling
against serving mixed couples is
not due to the union, which in-
cludes some colored and Oriental
members.

The Civil Liberties Union of
UBC said the survey of local
hotels was made following the Ali
incident, and the researchers
found five hotels
crimination.

When the question was raised
in Vancouver Labor Council it was
proposed that picket lines be put
on these hotels, and leaflets hand-
ed out to citizens to inform the
public of the hotels’ policy.

The’ suggestions were Passed on
to the Joint Labor Committee to
Comhat Racial Discrimination for
study.

practising dis-| *

Peter “The Lordly” Verigin was
killed in a mysterious train ex-
plosion near Brilliant in 1924 (the
Doukhobors firmly believe that he
was murdered), but despite some
loose handling of finances in the
following decade, the community
thrived until the thirties.

The banks and trust companies
moved in like hungry vultures,
and then, in a deal whose legality
is extremely questionable, the
Provincial government paid a
piddling $296,000 tothe trust
companies in exchange for fhe
land.

County Court Judge Arthur Lord
has been appointed by the Bennett
government to decide whether the
lands should be sold back to .the
Doukhobors, and if so at what price
and under what conditions.

Many Doukhobors, including
most Freedomites, have paid no
rent on the land they cleared and
cultivated, and maintain that the
government has no right to take
any action until the original dir-
ectors of the CCUB, or their heirs,
are assembled. As some of these
people are not even in Canada, and
their whereabouts unknown, this -
presents quite a problem.

“We do not believe in individual
Ownership of land,” said Nevok-
shonoff, and the men and women
in the room nodded approval. “We
worked the land together. We
built roads and bridges and homes.
We believe the land belongs to
God ,and we live on it.”

It was growing late and we pre-
pared to leave. The car had a flat
tire which had to be changed, dark-

ness was creeping over the country-

side and we wanted to get back on.

steady rain made the muddy side-
roads impassable. :

again, climbed into our car and set
off down the muddy road,
