By 1950, jhe had helped block a, com- munist-Inspired attempt ‘to break the local away from the parent International Wood-- workers of America, and was presitent.of the local. ’ But even then the seeds of ‘Canadian control planted in Howard. In last week's interview he - hinted that he was planning on . eoming-up with a formula that would, ii legislation, see Canadian: - wnton members’ dollars stay in Canada’ for ‘use by Canadiana. _ WON'T ELABORATE a ‘He declined to elaborate at . this time. But it was obvious: . Howard is planning’ on — bucking the huge international ‘trade union concept contrary yo the present NDP platform. ..

SMOOTH, SINCERE In the 1950's, Howard still had rough edges carved in the woods and mines of B.C., but today an obviously political astute Frank Howard, MP, is a smooth, but seemingly siucere representative of the people, Asked what his profession is, Howard quickly replied: “A logger”. And he adds he’s always been a trade unionist, “Pye always been aware of the needs of the people,” he ‘said. “That's why I visit my constituency 50 often.” _ And he says he's been able, iri his position’ and in his philosophy spawned !n lumber camps and polished by books and parliament, to help people. HELPS OTHERS “To help just one person, and see that person make a success of himeelf after facing a crisis in his life...te make him believe in hiraself is a satisfaction beyond all rewards,’ Howard said, with an intense look in. his eyes, What's the chances of Howard becoming leader of the federal NDP? ' “E think Pve got a good ‘chance, he said, with - determination and conviction, ‘ ‘A TOUGH FIGHT’ “It will be a tough fight but Pm fighting not’ just for the leadership of the NDP - but for all of the members of the party and for all of the people in this country,” Howard said people don't want an intellectual in an ivory tower. ; ’ ACROSS THE te Thornhill NORTHWEST “REAL ESTATE. “INSURANCE 32. | REVENUE PROPERTY _ ‘Two bedroom house situated on large lot 60 x 400 ft. with two revenue cabins.
