The candidate also referred to
the special problems facing pack-

workers who are organizing to
Overcome the bad wage and work-
ing conditions that prevail in
the constituency. He Sharply con-
denined these conditions and
promised every assistance to
these workers in achieving their
demands.

The position of the CCF on the
Guestion of coalition, places that
party in the position of ob-
structing the unity of democratic
forces, and helps the Tories in
their strategy of dominating a
reactionary government, he as-
serted. Such Strategy can only
Succeed if progressives remain
disunited, for no one party can
hope to have the necessary ma-
jority to form a fovernment af-
ter the election.

“F charge the GCF with com-
plete disregard of the needs of

for votes,” Clapp stated. “They
have isolated themselves from
every progressive development
and are trying to sabotage the
possibilities of full employment
and prosperity for all which can
be achieved by unity today. No

one who can benefit from a bet-

ter world after the War can af-
ferd to support the CCR today.”

week. The riding is a strong
center of Labor-Progressive sup-
port in municipal and provincial
elections, and the party is highly
confident of electing him to the
next House of Commons.

The nomination was accepted
by Tim, as he is affectionately
known by tens of thousands of
Canadians from coast to coast,
after he withdrew as the Pparty’s
federal candidate in ‘Toronto-
Spadina. The Spadina withdraw-
al was made to further the unity
of progressive groups of elec;
tors in the riding and avoid the
Opposition’s threatened use of
the national question in the cam-
paign.

The LPP leader nominated his
close friend and co-worker Sam.
Carr, LPP national organizer, to
replace him in Spadina. In mak-
ing the nomination, he called
Carr “a candidate of the highest
standing in the progressive
movement whose candidature
will prevent use of the national
question as a divisive issue,” and
“a man who can win in Spadina.”
