The general secretary of the British Communist Party, John Gollan; has called on the working class movement to rouse the people from one end of the country to the other to prevent Britain’s en- try into the Common Market. The slogans should be “NO to the Common Market” and “RD General Election NOW,” Gol.an offered.

CIRCULATION ROUND UP. Follow up elections to build, extend PT By HAROLD PRITCHETT Circulation Manager The pre-election statement of the Communist Party said: “One issue stands above all others: the issue of na- tional survival.” . Thanks to the fine work of our candidates and . the many thousands of PT read- ers and supporters, this vital life or death question was made the main issue of the election campaign. Much to the embar- rassment of the candida- tes of the old. line parties, who have not only sold Cas a dia down the river to the U.S. monopolists but also commit- ted our country to the war policy of U.S. and NATO re- action, this issue was driven home to many Canadians. Many of the NDP candi- rates who came out against the Bomb and nuclear arms for Canada were unable to reconcile this good and forth- right position against Canada becoming a member of the world’s nuclear club with the New Democratic Party’s con- tinued support of NATO, which is the world centre of aggressive war prepara- * tions. Despite this, it was an ex- cellent campaign in which our candidates\and our party membership spoke through public meetings and visiting people on their doorsteps and in their homes of the threat to Canada’s continued sur- vival.. The tremendous job which was done can be seen when the Provincial Commttee, campaign headquarters esti- mates that over 200,000 pieces of election material were distributed in B.C., in- - cluding the regular issues and special issue of the PT. Many thousands of people in B.C. who had never met a Communist before nor seen a copy of the PT, were plea- stantly surprised and were able to obtain a new image of the Communists and their message. In most instances entirely the opposite had been estab- lished in their minds by the capitalist press and other media of propaganda; but they found that communists look and act like human beings and that the com- munist program is a _ well worked out plan for Canada which places the interests of the people before the in- terests of the monopolies. June 18, 1962, will go down in Canadian history as an important date, not only from the view point of how many Tories and Lib- erals were defeated and how many NDP candidates were elected plus the increased vote for the Communists (import- ant as these are); it will be remembered because we, as a party of the working class, as a party of socialism, were able to bring the key issues affecting them to so many thousands of heretofore prac- tically untouched Canadians.
