This year we have also seen a heightening of international tensions equal to the period of the first cold war, combined with dra- matic increases in arms expendi- tures around the world. But while 1981 has ushered in an era of unprecedented peril for our planet, it has also given new life to those who strive for peace and se- curity. At the same time as a dark cloud’of pessimism seems to be de- scending from the pinnacle of power in Washington, from the people all over the world is rising a new call — ‘The people want peace.’’ And it is the power of this cry, the power of the people, that the Sth annual BURKE MOUNTAIN— LABOR FESTIVAL Continuous entertainment by over 30 of B.C.’s best folk and labor performers and a grand open-fire salmon bar-b-que | MAY 31, 2 p.m.-10 p.m. ~ WEBSTERS CORNERS | MAPLE RIDGE Free admission, $5 salmon dinner, refreshments, concession for the kids.

MAPLE RIDGE moves us to invite you to join usina demonstration of our optimism. This demonstration, to be held at CFB Comox, Aug. 8 (the day be- fore Nagasaki Day), will have as an immediate aim, the removal of nuclear warheads from Canadian soil, Comox in particular. But this action will also call for Canada to adopt an independent foreign pol- icy — to get out of NATO and Norad and. dissociate ourselves from the war-like policies of Rea- gan. Our demonstration will call for Canada to lead the way toward total nuclear disarmament in the world. Hiroshima was bombed Aug. 6 — Nagasaki on Aug. 9. No time can be more appropriate to add our voices to those of the world ‘‘The people want peace.”’ Flowers for Winston Marilyn Lanz, Vancouver, writes: Two weeks ago, a friend from the Seattle area and I attend- ed a May Day celebration in Seat- tle. Sponsored by the People’s World and featuring Henry Wins- ton, national chairman of the Communist Party USA, both my friend and myself were inspired by the incisive, rallying speech given by Winston. Winston characterized Reagan’s economic program as “a declara- tion of war against the American people,’’ as well as a war budget with ominous overtones for peace- loving people the world over. He called on the 250 people at the benefit to “‘quicken their pace”’ in the fight against the $48 billion budget cuts in social services, job employment and equal opportun- ities programs, education and housing “This fightback, to be effective, requires broad coalitions between churches, community groups and organized labor,”’ he said, adding that the collaboration between la- bor and big business must stop. After the well-planned program’ — spiced with Zimbabwean music and Chilean songs by a local group called Grupo Quimantu — Wins- ton was presented with seven red carnations for this birthday. The carnations, symbolizing each dec- ade of his life, were given by seven children of different ages and racial backgrounds.
