Meany Opposed NEW YORK — Expressing a “vigorous opposition” to AFL secretary-treasurer George Me-— anys Stand on international la- ker unity, 20 officials of Hotel and Club Local 6, largest affli- ate of the Hotel and Restaurant Employes International (AFL) this week charged that Meany prohibited free discussion when he delivered a report on the AFL attitude toward the world labor conference before the APL Gen- tral Trades and Labor Council here two weeks ago. in a statement published in their union organ, the AFL leaders point out that-in the audience “were many strongly favoring AFL participation in the world labor conference’: but that after Meany con- cluded his talk “the meeting Was quickly brought to a close and adjourned without any free discussion which those present certainly expected. It was the feeling of AFL lead- ers who were present that if the ‘freedom’ of which he spoke is to be lived up to, this ques- tion of AFI participation in world affairs must be on the order of business for full dis- cussion.” In his address, Meany assert- ed thateSir Walter Citrine, gen- etal secretary of the British Trades Union Congress had “en- couraged the forces of disunity’ by calling\a world labor confer- ence. He also implied that the TUC sought to pack the confer- ence with its supporters when he pointed out that in the case of many of the British colonies rep- resented “a careful search of the records of the International Fed- eration of Trade Uniens and of the International Labor Organ- ization fails to reveal any mem- tion of trade union movements in these countries prior to the London Conference.” The fact that “representa- tives of these hitherto unknown labor groups came to London by airplane under arrangements made by the British govern- ment,” he added, indicates “to what extent Sir Walter and his friends in the British govern- ment strained their efforts to bolster up British: representa- tion at this conference.” Reiter- ating the AFL’s refusal. to meet with Soviet trade unions, Meany asked: “What could we talk about? The latest innovations being used by the secret police to ensnare those who think in opposition to the group in pow- er? Or perhaps bigger and better concentration camps for political prisoners ?”’ S wis M eee A PROGRESSIVE WORK BOOT FOR BEVERY PURPOSE Prices According to Wartime Regulations JOHNSON’S: BOOTS 63 West Cordova Street Phone MA. 7612 : May 5, 1945 —— Page 15 will find plenty of interesting subjects. Labor Arts Guild {pete Labor Arts Guild will inaugurate a series of Creative Art : Classes for Children, commencing Friday afternoon, May alas from 2:00 to 4:00 o’clock, at the home of Mrs. L. C. Sander- son, 1461 W. Georgia, to be conducted weekly for pre-school children between the ages of one and six. A further course for Seven to twelve-year olds. after school will be announced as*soon as there is suf- ficient registration to warrant this. Indi- vidual fee, 35 cents per lesson, any age. These unique classes will be conducted by Mme. Maedi Kals, whose intensive studies for this specialized training in Vienna, un- der the eminent psychologist, Prof. Franz Cizek and her years of practical experi- ence as his assistant, have particularly qualified her for this important work with the very young. The Cizek course has met with phenomenal success elsewhere, notably in Vienna, Russia, New York and other lead= ine centres; and the Guild is privileged to accept Mme. Kals’ offer to organize such classes in Vancouver, under its auspices, with her own emphasis on securing a sub- Stantial section of enrollment from among working class chil- dren and youngsters of trade union families. Mme. Kals ‘will welcome a note or telephone call at 1711 Drummond, Al 0438-R, for further particulars. Collective work that supplants competition with co-oper- ation, the discipline imposed by the children upon themselves, and the psychological basis for developinge natural constructive tendencies in a natural manner are highlights of this social training designed to create not only artists in the true sense, but also well-ordered human beings and responsible citizens Equipped to confidently assume their full obligation to society. THEATRICAL MAKE-UP COURSE Another new course which the Guild is proud to announce is that offered by Vivien Ramsay, well known in dramatic circles as director, costumer and make-up expert. Mrs. Ramsay will ' open a class in theatrical make-up on Tuesday, May 8, in the John Goss Studios, at 8:00 pm. Tramed make-up artists will be an invaluable asset to future productions of the Drama Group; and it is hoped that a substantial number will take Advantage of this opportunity to avail themselves of the some training as given by Mrs. Ramsay in the UBC summer course. AMATEUR PHOTOGRAPHERS WANTED A long-standing, need of the Guild was forcibly brought into perspective this week upon receipt of a telegrom from the National Film Board requesting air mail photographs of mem- bers at work to be exhibited at an art centre display now in preparation in Ottawa. Unfortunately, no such material exists; but we never again want to miss such an opportunity to stimu- late labor-art moyements elsewhere. So, if you are an amateur photographer, your membership in the Guild can make a real contribution in relating your specialty to our activities. And you Shots already missed: The group that made the costumes for “Hamlet”; artists working. out designs for our May Day ficat up im a third storey sign= painter's studio; the gang that assembled the float in a down- town back lane; the writers’ group sorting and getting hundreds of entries in the Authors’ Contest ready for the judges; rehears- als, building stage sets, making properties, and painting scenes; eataloging entries down in the basement of the Art Gallery for the “British Columbia at work” exhibition; and the Saturday Studio Night merrymakers, complete with doughnuts in hand’ that suddenly went into a huddle without any warning and gave a thrilling program of spirited workers’ songs. Alas, all these have gone unrecorded. But there will be many other scenes of equal appeal. So come forth, ye photographers!
