Page Six THE PEOPLE’S ADVOCATE lan Seer Centre Here Youngs Communists To Launch Drive if plans discussed at a provincial committee meeting of the Young Communist League on Sunday can be realized—and with the enthusi- asm and energy of the YCL’s gBrowing membership there is no reason why they should not be— then next winter the city’s pro- eressive youth will have a real eentre where they can develop their activities. The need for such a centre to coordinate the work of sports, re- ereational and study groups has been apparent for some time and there is no doubt that the planned eampaign for funds will find plen- ty of supporters. In the meantime, encouraged by the success of the recent six-weeks summer school at Lynn Valley, the WCL is planning further summer activities. Following discussion at Sunday's conference, the program submitted by the education com- mittee was endorsed. Speakers at the conference were Maurice Rush, provincial secretary, William Palmer and Les McRae, delegates to the recent 8th national eonvention of the YCL in Toronto, who reported on decisions of the convention. Tt was announced that the Bri- tish Columbia section of the league had accepted a pledge to raise $300 in the Imternational Chal- lenge for aid to Spain and that a 10-day fulltime summer school for training of youth leadership would be held shortly.

Men’s Half Soles aa “Rubber Heels - = Ladies’ Half- Soles - Fans‘A-Dit her ‘Over Hostak-Steele Bout By STEVE GAINER SEATTLE, Wash.—Two northwest boys, Champion Freddie Steele, of Tacoma, and Al Houstak, of Seattle, have local fans all a-dither over their coming middleweight championship fight here July 26. Wate Druxman, Seattle promoter, who has done more than any other man to build the 160-pound division up from its depression slump, is expecting 40,000 scramb- ling fans to go through the gates at the Civie Stadium the night of the championship battle. Nate, who could easily have gotten $10 a seat, is charging the top price of $5.75 for ringside. Steele, who was holding out for $60,000 for a Hostak title fight, finally settled with Druxman for $30,000. Hfostak is getting a per centage of the gate, with the chance of a big future. Opinions are divided on the out- come of the Steele-Hostak match. Many fans believe Hostak tco powerful a slugger for the cham- pion. However, Steele followers be- lieve the champ will outbox and outspeed the No. i challenger. The sensational rise of both boys in the 160-pound division have been almost identical. Steele first got his big chance in a non-title affair with the then champion Babe Ris- ko. After winning the decision, Steele was again matched with Risco in a title fight which the Tacoman won in fifteen rounds. Steele has fought seven title bouts, losing a non-title affair to the Wo. 2 challenger. Al Apostoli, by the knockout route. : Hlostak on the other hand, first was recognized when he put Risko away in seyen rounds. From then on the mighty Slav has been knocking out all opponents in | sight.

CCE members were instructed “to immediately associate them- selves with their respective eco- nomic organizations where such are now in existence; and where non-existent to immediately take steps to assist the bringing into being of such organizations.”’ Function of the economic rela- tions committee, as defined in the adopted report, will be to act as the official contact between the CGF and the trade union move- ment, to foster harmonious rela- tions between the CCE and organ- ized labor by careful presentation to the unions of CCE policy re- garding trade unionism and labor legislation, and to achieve, as far as possible coordination of the economic activities of workers en- gaged in industry and agriculture. Debate on trade union policy arose on Saturday from the report of William Offer, chairman of the economic relations committee. Other referred to a recent con- ference called by the committee, ostensibly for discussion on Bill 94, the Labor Conciliation and Ar- bitration Act passed by the last session of the provincial legisla- ture. The conference, he said, was at- tended by ten CE of L delegates, eight AF of L, and CIO delegates and one delegate from an inde- pendent union. He commended the CF of L for its cooperation while speaking slightingly of the AF of I.

Phone Trinity 4955 as to accept the CCF “as the po- litical expression of the working class in this country,’ he added. Opposition of trade unionists in the convention was aroused when Offer declared: “We cannot recog— mize differences between trade unions. As socialists we recognize labor as only one thing—a com- modity.” Francis Aldham, a delegate from Otter Point, VL, protested the stand taken by the committee in regard to the Canadian Federation of Labor. The CF of L was a splitting or ganization and a centre of com- pany unionism, representing only @ small minority, he said, warn- ing that if the CCE persisted in its relations with the CE of L it could only end by antagonizing the AF of I and the whole trade union movement in BC. Immediately Glen Iamont, a Trotskyist active in the CF of L, jumped to his feet and launched a bitter attack on the trade union policies of the Communist party. Erom this he proceeded to a leng- thy defense of the CE of L until halted by another delegate who demanded of Chairman W. W. Le- feaux: “Ts the delegate representing a CGF club or the CF of L?” Don Maxwell, organizer for the Retail Clerks Union and CCF can- didate in Burrard last year, termed the CCEB’s approach to the trade unions idealistic. ‘J think that the Communist partys policy towards the trade unions is the only realistic one while our own is idealistic,” he stated. “Qur best policy is to show the trade unions that we are sym- pathetie to their interests and ac- tive in assisting them to build their organizations.” An appeal for the “utmost con- sideration of this question” was made by Herbert Gargrave, pro- vincial secretary, who said: “We must recognize that the AF of I, represents the great force of organized labor in this country. Accepting this as a fact, we should base our policy accordingly and endeavor to win the trade unions to support of the CCE by active participation in the trade union movemen Wigel Morgan, Victoria delegate, declared thaat the conference call- ed by the economic relations com- men, but made today (Friday) the deadline to vacate city-owned hi tels on Johnson street.
