GRAPE BOYCOTT

dorsed by the AFL-CIO and its 14
million members, by groups like
the National Council of Catholic
Bishops and the Unitarian General
Assembly, and by thousands upon
thousands of fair-minded con-
sumers around the world.

“The strike against California
grape growers is not a jurisdic-
tional dispute; it is a battle
between the workers on one hand
and management and their
Teamster allies on the other. It is a
struggle for human rights and
social justice. The British Colum-
bia Federation of Labor will not let
these farm workers down in their
time of need, and calls on all
Federation affiliates not to handle
any ‘hot’ California or Arizona
grapes.”

The repudiation by Premier
Dave Barrett of an earlier stand by
Health Minister Dennis Cocke, that
hospitals should not buy Cali-
fornia grapes, was a
before the pressure of right
wing editorial writers in the media,
and pressure from Ed Lawson of
the Teamsters.

CORRECTION

In the open letter_to Mrs.
Plumptre published last week

read Mrs. Ethel Ostry, instead
of Ostric. We apologize to Mrs.

munist Party, Levine remained a

Tribute paid
to Anna Holyk

The Ukrainian Cultural Centre
was filled to overflowing at the
final tribute to Anna Holyk,
veteran Ukrainian and peace ac-
tivist, and member of the Com-
munist Party since 1936.

One of a family of 15 children,
born in Permilow in the oblast of
Tarnople, in 1900 she migrated to
Canada in 1928, where she im-
mediately became an active
member in the Ukrainian Labor
Farmer Temple Association. In
1930 she met and married Peter
Holyk. After he was forced to aban-
don working underground at
Britannia Mine, they went to Camp
6 Youbou.

In 1936 Anna joined the Com-
munist Party of which she was an
active member until sickness forc-
ed her to relinquish respon-
sibilities. She was a member for
eight years of the B.C. Provincial
Executive of the Association of
Ukrainian Canadians, a delegate to
the first World Peace Congress in
Helsinki where the Stockholm
Peace Petition was launched.

For over forty-three years there
were few activities in the labor and
progressive movement of British
Columbia that were not the
beneficiaries of her generosity and
active support.

Tributes were delivered at the
funeral on December 3 in Van-
couver by Mrs. Hannah Polowy
and Mrs. Nickotiuk of the Women’s
Branch of the AUUC; John
Chitrenky of the Provincial Council
of the AUUC; Walter Gawryski of
the Federation of Russian
Canadians and Nigel Morgan,
Provincial leader of the Com-
munist Party.
