RELIEF The cloud of gloom and anxiety hanging over the entire country at the prospect of a railway tie-up was dispelled in an instant on Thursday night by the announcement made by the Prime Minister that there will be no strike. As the Prime Minister said, great credit is due to the two sides to the dispute — and satisiac- tion to the nation — from the fact Lihat they have agreed that the out- standing differences between them are to be resolved by the process of negotiation and bargaining, rather than by a strike. RECOLLECTION Parliament had been under a growing tension ‘as the days and hours went by and the strike dead- line grew closer. Everyone here re- members the unhappy days of Oc- tober 1950 when we'were called into special session to deal with a situa- tion when a'rail strike— at that time called by the non-operating unions — was actually in effect. On that oceasion the strike was ended when the Government put through a Dill requiring a return to work on the basis that the disputed terms would be settled by compulsory arbitration. NECESSITY And so the relief was felt especi- ally down here when the announc2- ment was made, because no one had been compelled to assume the respon- sibility of dictating terms to the parties to a labour dispute. But it does point up the necessity — which we have emphasized before — of working out immediately a satis- factory conciliation précedure, ac- ceptable to both labour and manage- ment, which will ensure that such disputes as may arise in the future may be settled by free arbitration, with due regard for the national in- terest and the nation’s economy, not left, as it is now, to come to the very brink of disaster before being pluck-~ ed back. OTHER RELIEF The actual announcement in the House Thursday was not without its element of comic relief either, as it, turned out. Agreement on the pro- cedure had been reached at about 9 p.m., and the Prime Minister came into the house to make his announce- ment, along with the Minister of Transport and most of the rest of the Cabinet, about 9:40. It so hap- pened that Mr. Garson, Minister of Justice, had just embarked ten min- utes before on the explanation of a bill he had introduced, dealing with the liability of the Crown for Torts and Civil Salvage, and was in full cry on this not very entertaining sub- ject when the grand entry was staged. The broad smiles on the faces of the entrants gave us all a preity ‘good indication, and a welcome one, of what was to be expected. But Mr. Garson has a habit of moving out to the front of his desk when speaking; he is a very earnest man, who always explains his sub- ject at length, and the bill was intri- cate; the combination of these factors produced the result that he continu- ed his explanation supremely un- aware of all the bustle and stir be- hind him. The Prime Minister doodi- ed apparently unconcerned, but tbe others squirmed with obvious embar- rassment as the minutes ticked by and the outline of the Crown’s po- sition with respect to liability for Torts continued its uninterrupted course. DOUBLE TAKE ’ Finally, Works Minister Fournier, who is also House Leader, took mat- térs into his own hands. He plucked Mr>Garson’s jacket. Two or three ra- ther tentative plucks went apparent- ly unheeded. Finally a man-sized tug had the desired result of inter- rupting the flow and the two Minis- E ENT Allsweet “Helping Hand” Fund HELP YOUR ARENA by buying “Allsweet” Margarine Here’s How it Works: In a nation-wide contest, the Swift Canadian Company, makers of ALLSWEET MARGARINE, offers organizations in each community in Canada the chance to make needed money and to win large cash prizes. save between now and CASH in Allsweet’s will be redeemed by of Allsweet ..

First Mr. Garson with a shrug of his shoulders as though to shake off a bit of dust or perhaps a few flakes of snow, seemed about to continue Torts and Civil Salvage to the very end: in fact, he did con- tinue for some few minutes. But then the situation seemed borne in on him and with obvious regret but full composure and un- ruffled mein, the Crown’s surrender of its previous immunity from ac- tions in these fields was hurried along to its end. So at shortly. after 9:50 p.m., to a House whose mood had been considerably relaxed by the entertainment thus unknowingly pro- vided, the Prime Minister was able to make his announcement, “that collective bargaining is still an ef- fective instrument to deal with labour relations... .” It’s easy to control your temper when the other fellow outweighs you.

The married men took over the first part of the game, scoring some fast goals by Wally Synchuk and Norm Ewart, and seemed to sweep all before them in the first period. About this time the single boys pulled up their socks and swept to the rescue with Peter Skeene and Billy Ogden showing their mettle by snatching a couple of goals. After that the game swung along pretty much of a tie all the way through Cliff Eagle did duty as referee and was right on the job, handing out penalties to George Begg and Bill Mathews for tripping.
