Thompson

government was criticised from
the floor.

James Auld, President Burrard
Conservative Association, came
in for a rough ride from the as-
sembled meeting, when some lis-
teners, during the question period
recalled “Section 98” and the good
old days of the “Bennett Slave
Camps.”

CONCERT RALLY

Jimmy Thompson spope again |

on Sunday at a giant political-
eoneert rally held in Boilermak-
ers Hall. He stressed the impor-
tance of labor’s partnership in
the next government, and: indi-
cated that labor’s representation
should be by the tried and true
leaders of labor, and/not by those
who sit in opposition to all of
labor‘s wants and sneer.

“There were people,’ Thomp-

son continued, “who would have
rather seen Germany win the.
‘victory than raise their voices
“against reaction in our govern-
ment. These quisling groups are
_ again raising their voices and de-
manding 2 voice.’

Thompson pointed out that the
problems of a postwar Canada
cannot be solved by a government
of reaction. He scored the split-
ting tactics of the tories, and
pointed to the threat of a tory
coalition victory as a threat to
the entire future of the country.

“Labor's position,’ Thompson

concluded, ‘is that now is the
time when we must place our dif-
ferences into the background, and
maintain a Canadian unity that
kas been forged in this greatest

ot wars.”

Act To Prevent
Water Shortage

Determined that there will be
nc repetition of last years water
shortage, farmers of the Sunny-
side area of Surrey Municipality
held a meeting in the Sunnyside
Hall, attended by Reeve Brown,
Gouncillor Franks and Municipal
Engineer Claude Harvey.

Protest was voiced over inac-
tion of the Council in carrying
Gut to a sufficient degree their
agreement to further explore the
water supply source in the area,
ar agreement that was entered
into last October when the resi-
dents of the area undertook to
vaise the money for exploration
purposes. aS a preliminary to
their application for installation
of a water system under a local
improvement plan:

Fear was expressed that due
to the delay in proceeding with
the preliminary work necessary,

that installation of a water sys-

tem could not be completed in
time to serve the area in event of

FRED ROSE, M.-P.

Popular member for Montreal-
Cartier whose excellent record
in his two years of service en-
sure his reelection.

a repetition of last year’s water
shortage.

Sunnyside area is a rapidly
growing farming section of the
Municipaltty and there has been
considerable increase in popula
tion during the last few years.
Dairy. cattle, hogs and poultry
farming has developed rapidly in
recent years.

Congratulations are extended
to Bill Kallin, veteran of the
Mackenzie-Papineau, and Helen
Fidruchay, member of the Rus-
sian-Ganadian Organization, who
were married in Vancouver on

May Day. Both are active mem-
bers of the Labor-Progressive
Party. ;

will-either be forced to withdraw,
or will isolate himself from the
yoters by a glaring admission of
yartisan politics. The feeling
against CCE participation has
grown so Sharp that many of
Cunningham’s fellow union mem-
bers are refusing to support him
and are throwing their weight
behind McEwen’s campaign.
Although Dawson Miners Un-
ion have endorsed the CCF can-
didate, the Yukon Trade Union
Co-Ordinating Council has re-
fused to endorse any candidate,
and has instead sent invitations
to all candidates to speak at a
mass meeting, called under the
sponsorship of the YTUCC€ at the
Capitol Theatre, on May 27. The
unions in Whitehorse have not
yet endorsed any candidate in
the campaign, but individual
members of the unions are staun-
chly supporting McHwen.

It is felt that the campaign in
the Yukon will intensify as the
date of election draws closer. It
is reported that a whispering
campaign has been instituted by
arti-labor elements, slandering:
the labor candidate, but to date
the campaign has not met with
success among the strongly pro-
labor electorate.

An interesting side-light is the
fact that the evening of the Con-
servative meeting, the walls of
