Supreme Court issued an injunction aining the international from interfering with the ities of its chartered local, Tunnel and Rock Work- ty to serve this injunction on the defendant Joseph V. More- schi at the City of Washing- ton, District of Columbia, United States of America.” Defendants were given leave to apply on two days’ notice to the plaintiffs to set the injunction aside. Immediate effect of the court decision has been to spur members of Laborers’ Local 602, a sister union of the Rock Workers, to fight harder for their release from the present administration of international official Carl Berg of Edmon- ton. Both locals came under the “big stiek” policy of the in- ternational when they refused to ratify low-wage contracts signed by Washington brass without their knowledge or consent. Battling to regain local autonomy, many members of Local 602 met with Berg’s as- sistant here, Charles Savage, last Saturday to demand an end to the administration. Tunnel and Rock Workers defied the international from the start, refused to surrender their offices to international representatives, and have con- tinued to run their union and supply men for the pipeline jobs. International representative Stacey J. Warner opened an- other office but found himself without either workers or con- tracts. When he visited Mer- ritt, where pipeline workers are currently striking for higher wages and better work- ing conditions, union members refused to have anything to do with him and he was com- pelled to leave. Local 168 spokesman Bill Hunchuk went to Merritt, slapped a copy of the injunc- tion on the table at the Conyes Construction Company, and was immediately offered a sub- stantial wage increase for his men. No settlement has yet been reached, however. CBC Monday, July 16 10:15 p.m. Arms Reduction and Your Living Costs’ On August 23, n 1903 EXPEDITION CITED elongs to Canada, declares MP 1903, a converted Newfoundland sealer, the Neptune, sailed out of Halifax harbor under commission to the federal government “‘to patrol the waters of Hudson Bay and those adjacent to the eastern Arctic islands; also to aid in the estab- lishment, on the adjoining shores, of permanent stations for the collection of customs, the administration of justice and the enforcement dominion.” Commander of the expedi- tion was A. P. Low, geologist, and members of the small scientific staff were Dr. L. E. Borden, surgeon and botanist; Dr. G. B. Faribault, assistant surgeon; A. Halkett, naturalist; Cc. F. King, topographer and meteorologist; and C. F. Cald- well, photographer. The expedition also includ- ea Major J. D. Moodie, who tad been appointed acting commissioner for the unor- ganized Northeastern Territor-- ies, a staff sergeant and four constables of the Northwest Mounted Police. When the expedition return- ed in mid-October 1904, it had formally taken possession of Southampton Island in Hud- sou Bay, Ellesmere Island and the smaller islands adjoining it, and compiled a mass of in- formation on navigation in Arctic waters, whaling and marine life, geology and min- eral resources, in addition to detailed observations of Eski- mio life, : Two years later, in 1906, the government printing bureau at Ottawa published Low’s reports in a 355-page cloth- bound book, complete with maps, entitled The Cruise of the Neptune. Last week ,in the House of Commons, -H. W. Herridge (CCF, Kootenay West) recall- ed the “forgotten expedition” and quoted from Low’s book tc prove Canada’s claims to its Arctic territories. (Canada claims all Arctic lands lying between two lines drawn from the eastern and western extremities of the country and converging at the North Pole. The United States however, does not recognize discovery alone as establishing claim but only effective oc- cupation and control.) Herridge said he had been impelled to look into this country’s claims by reports! that U.S. forces stationed in the Canadian Arctic did not recognize Canadian sovereign rights. “T want to-say that the Can- adian Arctic belongs to Cana- da, and at this time it is most appropriate that we do not iesitate to emphasize our sover- eign rights in that area and fully inform Canadians of the interesting history of that pe- riod,” Herridge declared. Dr. L. E. Borden, now liv- ing in Victoria, B.C., and be- lieved to be the only surviving of law H. W. IDGE, MP raember of the expedition, had drawn Low’s book to his at- tention, he said. When he investigated he found there were only two known copies of the book in existence, one in Dr. Borden’s possession and the other in ‘ the parliamentary library. - (A check by the Pacific Trib- une this week disclosed that there is at-least one other copy in a private library in Van- couver.) Herridge suggested that the volume in the parliamentary library and whatever other in- formation the government might obtain from Dr.Borden’s personal records of the ex- as in other parts of the pedition should be turned over to the federal archivist for safekeeping. The government, Herridge added, appeared to have no definite records of the ex- pedition, all reports apparent- ly having been lost in the shuffling of government de- partments over the past half- century. He urged that the govern- ment publish the history of the 1903-4 expedition so that Canadians generally and U.S. forces in the Arctic might have “a proper knowledge of Can- adian rights and sovereignty in the Arctic and when these re- gions were taken by Canada. Mines Minister G. Prudham promised that his department would obtain a complete re- port on the expedition from Dr. Borden this summer. Herridge recalled that a year ago he placed a ques- tion on the House of Com- mons order paper “asking for a definition of the land area that is considered to be within the jurisdiction of Canada north of the main- land of this counry” and that “later, at the suggestion *of certain people, I withdrew that resolution.” Herridge did not elaborate his refer- ence to “certain people.” LPP will get one freetime TV feature The Labor-Progressive party has been granted time on the new CBC television feature, Affairs,” commenced Monday this week “Provincial which with Secial Credit speakers Robert Bonner and Philip Gaglardi.
