Representatives from local labor and progres- sive groups persuaded him to withdraw his candidacy in fa- vor of Cyril Newman, the CCF nominee. Despite well - inten- tioned but divisive efforts to get him to reconsider, he has stood by his statement that he would not run against a CCF candidate and so en- danger a seat. : In Fernie, the CCF is not i contesting the seat held by ; Tom Uphill, departing from its Be! long-held policy of contesting A every’ constituency. In past years, its insistence upon con- testing Fernie has engendered the CCF in the last legislature ene ae Sa and has withdrawn from seats where the margin between CCF and Socreds is close. The effect.of the LPP policy is already apparent in Comox where William Moore, CCF member in the last legislature, having declined renomination by the CCF, announced his intention of standing as an in- Continued on back page See UNITY
