Always a pallbearer
but never a corpse

HAT aging warmonger, Winston Spencer Churchill, has
crossed the Ailantic again to beat the war drums in Washing-
ton. Churchill has survived three wars—millions of common
soldiers didn’t—and is now trying to promote a fourth. Generals
and politicians—die in bed.

We have no desire for « khaki shroud. We don’t want to be
wrapped in a blanket and buried in a common grave on some
lonely mountainside. Nor do
we want to be bombed,
burned or blasted to death
amid the ruins of our homes.
But that’s what Churchill.
Truman and their ilk have
in store for us. Between the
desire for war on the part of
the atomaniacs and the de-
sire for peace on the part of
the common people, how-
ever, there is a big gap.

The Pacific Tribune
fights for peace. Our col-
umns, unlike those of the
capitalist press, record the
heroic struggle for peace be-
ing waged by common
people in all countries ‘of

. the world. Our paper not
only records, but helps to inspire and lead the people in this
sacred baile.

Below are printed the proposed circulation targets for our

press clubs in 1952.

B. C.. Teachers’ Federation -
opposed to integration

of separate schools ,

The executive of the British Columbia Teachers’ Federation is opposed to the plan proposed

by the B.C. Catholic Education Association for inte

grating religious separate schools with the public

school system. It is also opposed to expenditure of public funds for aid or support of religious and

other sectarian schools.

A statement outlining the stand taken by the B.C. Teachers’ Federation was issued last week-
end by its secretary, Charles D. Ovans. The statement said:

“The BCTF reafirms its sup-
port of and belief in the demo-
cratic system of the non-sectarian
schools as at present established
by law in the \province and pro-
tests the granting of concessions
demanded by religious or other
sectarian groups seeking integra-
tion.

“The action of the executive
is based, not on_ prejudice
‘against religious creed, but on
the conviction that a healthy
and democratic school system

cannot be maintained on other
than a secular basis.”

In support of BCTF arguments,
Ovans quoted the Royal Com-
mission on Education in Ontario
last year, which suggested that
existence of separate schools con-
stitutes a weakness in the Ontario
public school system.

The Catholic proposal, arising
out of disputes in Coquitlam and
elsewhere last year, is that public
school boards in the province
should take over operation of ex-

isting separate schools on a rental
basis. First suggested by the
B.C, Catholic Association, it was
subsequenlty reaffirmed by Arch-
bishop Wiliam Duke.

At the B.C. Liberal executive's
meeting here this week a resolu-
tion calling for integration of
“minority groups,” including
Catholic schools, into the public
school system was referred to
Liberal associations throughout
the province for study and recom-
mendation.

Toronto veterans hold
memorial for victims
of Nazi Kurt Meyer

‘ TORONTO

A hushed crowd stood with bared head before Toronto’s 'Ceno-

| taph last week to hear former RCAF Squadron Leader E. M. Aplin

recall the memory. of seven Torontonians slain on the order of SS

Brigadefuehrer Kurt Meyer.

The ceremony took place fol:
lowing a march of 150 veterans
and citizens through  traffic-
heavy streets. Some 50 cars par-
ticipated in the parade, organized
by the Veterans Committee of
the Toronto Peace Council, which
has launched a city-wide cam-
paign to prevent release of Meyer
from a German prison.

Even as the parade moved
through streets cleared by po-
lice escort, a plane trailing the
slogan “Bring Kurt Meyer Back”
circled overhead. The message
was read by thousands of people
throughout the city.

The long parade, headed by a
young Second World War vet-
eran carrying the Canadian flag,
featured banners held aloft by
bemedalled veterans. The banners
read: “Bring Meyer Back”; “Stop
‘German Rearmament.”

Two sound trucks told the story

of Meyer’s crimes, his transfer to.

a German prison, and the danger
of him ‘heading up new Nazi le-
gions.

Following the Cenotaph cere-
mony thousands of leaflets
were distributed. Postcards to
Prime Minister St. Laurent
with the message “I urge you
to bring Kurt Meyer back to

Canada so that he can never.
kill again,” were eagerly taken
up by passersby. Many of them
Signed the cards on thé spot
for mailing directly to Ottawa.

Squadron-leader Aplin told
hundreds of citizens gathered
apound the Cenotaph: “We will
keep faith with those who died!
To release Kurt Meyer, to place
him at the head of a new SS
Division, would be to betray. a
Sacred trust.

.“In the name of Canada and
of humanity we pledge that we
Will not rest until justice prevails
in the case of Kurt Meyer. ,

“We do this not in any spirit of
personal vengeance against Kurt
Meyer. We do this because -we
want to prevent Kurt Meyer and
his friends from embarking on a
war of revenge — because we
want to prevent him from ever
again having the power of life
and death over human beings.”

A letter was delivered.to the
office of Mayor Allan Lamport
immediately following laying of
a wreath at the Cenotaph. It
urged that the new administra-

‘tion “join with us in demanding

that Kurt Meyer ‘be brought
back to Canada, so that he may
never kill again.” ‘
