In Africa Council

Eslanda Robeson, wife of Paul
Robeson, and author of “African
Journey,” a book dealing wiih
Mrs. Robeson’s travels through
Africa and the new awakenings
of the native Africans to the po-
tentialities of that sprawling
continent, was announced this
week as joining the staff of the
Council on African Affairs by
Dr. Max Yergan, executive direc-
tor of the Council.

It is felt that Mrs. Robeson, in
her work with the Council on
African Affairs, will contribute
toward widening the influence of
that organization and increas-
ing American understanding of
Africa’s vital relationship to
world security and peace.

Mrs. Robeson received extrem-

the aim of the association;

A decision to have mémberi
ship share certificates printed at
once was recorded. These are to
be in the mails to all who have
subscribed for shares as soon as
possible. A committee to draw
up and print a brochure outlin-
ing the attractions the project
offers to the book-reading pub-
lic was also named. The bro-
chure will be available to the
public in a few days.

Expressing confidence in the
scope and purpose of this book-

cluded with an appeal to co-
operative-minded people to make
this project their own and sub-

Passes In
Victoria

Fred Fox, for years a well

known figure in Vancouver
left-wing circles, is dead in
Victoria. after a lingering ul-
ness. A long-time member of
the old .Communist Party, and
latterly of the Labor-Progressive
Party, his death on August 23
was mourned by-hundreds of co-
workers and friends who-~- had
known and worked with him over
a period extending from the
early nineteen-thirties.
. Fox was a familiar figure. for,
years at labor meetings and
gatherings, both as a speaker |
and salesman of literature. His
vegard for the» great | achieve-
ments of the Soviet Union -dur-
ing the years when those achieve-
ments. were — obscured and’ dis-
torted .by reaction, led him to
join the: one time Friends of the
Soviet: Union, for which organ-
ization he acted for a time as
provincial organizer. In the
course of hiss FSU work he be-
came widely known as a speaker
in’ the ‘course of many tours
throughout the province.

Always in ill-health, he settled |
in Victoria just before the out-
break of war, but after a few
months ‘rest’ again became. ac-

+6 and Kingsway-

‘tive. In 1940 he was arrested
‘under the Defence of Canada
Regulations and sentenced to a
term in prison. Upon his release
he again resunied his activity,
and was working for the. labor
movement up to the time of his.
death. -

Big-.in body, and big in spirit,
Fred Fox will be remembered as
a man who put the interests of
the working people before his
own health and interests at all
times. And he lived long enough
to see that great country and
people whom he championed so
unselfishly, emerge from World }
War II as the acknowledged sav-
ior of mankind from fascism,

than ever. >
