1-217 IWA Stages Drive;
Plans Hospital Work

Brother Whalen visited Byother

A cotton rag drive was pro-
posed by members of the Wom-
en’s Auxiliary of Local 1-217,
IWA, at their regular meeting,
April 1st, as the most suitable
way of increasing the Auxiliary’s
finances. i

Sister Muriél Bradley will re-
port at the next meeting whether
or not it’s possible for the Aux-
iliary to purchase and raffle a
cedar chest as another -way of
increasing their finances.

Sisters Bradley, Hamer, Hen-
drie,* Rankin and Hodgson at-
tended the Local Educational In-
stitute, Sister Bradley reported
that she felt that the trade union
history on B.C, should have been
included. She felt that the in-
structor dealt too much with per-
sonalities. Sister Rankin like-
wise felt that the Instructor dealt
too much with personalities, and
she felt the lecture up until the
intermission was very good. Sis-
ter Hodgson felt that she would
have liked to have heard more on
Canadian history of Trade
Unions. E

Women’s Council

Sisters Lucille Busch, Elsie
Gray and Muriel Bradley report-
ed on the Annual Meeting of the
Local Council of Women. They

felt the report on our Auxiliary
was very good. There were 95
affiliated Auxiliaries, each had a
roll call vote of five votes, Com-
mittee Chairmen and Executive
Officers also had a vote.

A discussion followed on the
Dr. Robert Clark’s Report on
Civic Government. A motion was
passed that we instruct our rep-
resentative to vote against this
yeport, in view of the fact that
we felt Commissioners in the
Civic Government should be
elected, not appointed. Members
felt this in effect jeopardizes our
democratic right to vote.
