Nothing Githy

Kippered Salmon and Black Cod,
and other specialty lines. Canada

“CO-OP BRAND” — The Co-
operative Organizations in Cana-
da which contro] this brand have
given the Fishermens’ Co-op Fe-
deration authority to pack under

ber, “The more you eat the big-
ger the dividend” to other work-
ers.

guage.

The signs are all around us.
Layoffs are prevalent, and the
fact that petitions are being cir-
culated asking for the removal
of married women from offices
and plants is one sure sign. That
there is a B.C. Statute, passed in
1936, which forbids discrimina-
tion against working women
merely because of their marital
status, seems to have been for-
gotten by both the Government
and the people.

First the “foreigners” go, then
the married women, then the
single women, then ‘the single
men .. . and we have relief
camps and all the old horrors
back again.

"They don’t ask if married wom-
en need the work, because of de-
pendents or because of the hus-
bands’ inadequate wages. It is
easier to hide unemployment fi-
gures this way. In any case
‘women are supposed to have men
to keep them, husbands, fathers,
or brothers, even if none of these
male relatives are in a position
to do so.

Hamburger Again

The New Westminster local
isn’t having any, and is dealing
with their’ particular “petition
passing” in their own way.

Another sign of trouble is the
fact that butchers say the price
of meat is high because B.C.
housewives won't buy the cheap
cuts. If they did the more expen-
sive or “luxury cuts” would come
down in price.

We contend that the way the
meat is cut, with bone, gristle
and fat galore, there ARE ‘NO
CHEAP CUTS. Of course we
may be wrong. If we are, we
wish you would tell us.

Have YOU tried giving your
man hamburger (45 to 60 cents
a pound), sausages (45 to 55
cents a pound) fill he squawked.

Have you tried a rump roast
at 59 cents a pound, and weighed
the bone afterwards? Have you
bought round steak (grade B) at
69 cents a pound and got much
of a meal for the family? Or
mutton neck (33 cents special)
for a stew, and managed to get
any meat at all?

The need for protein — meat,
eges, etc. — is greatest among
these who do hard manual labor,
but it is suggested that the work-
er content himself with “cheap
cuts” that the ‘leisure’ folks
may be able to buy the “quality”
cuts at a lower price. Who saves
then?
