war, the rising civil rights
movement which merges with the
fight to end the war, and the
effective aid given by the Socialist
countries as seasons for the U.S.
setback in Vietnam.

“The struggle for peace is at a
crucial stage. U.S. imperialism is on
the defensive. Now is the time for
the peace forces to mount a major
offensive for peace. Every avenue
open to us must be used to change the
direction of Canada’s foreign policy.
Canadian Communists call on the
electors to drive out of office on June
25th, all politicians who support the
dirty U.S. war in Vietnam.”

The leaflet concluded by saying:
“The Vietnamese are fighting for
their right to control their own
country, to live in peace, to adopt the
social system that suits them,
including the system of socialism if
they so desire. Patriotic Canadians

OBITUARY

The Communist and progressive
movement is mourning the passing

William Hoshowsky, who passed
away on April 25 in his 78th year.

Born in the Western Ukraine, he
came to Canada as a young man and
spent most of his life in B.C., taking
an active part in the Ukrainian
community. His wife Kate and
children were also very active in the
Ukrainian mass organizations. His
only son, Harry, is an outstanding
musician and was a member of the
Milestones song group.

In addition to his loving wife, Kate .

and son Harry, he also leaves three
brothers, John, Harry and Walter;
two daughters, Carol and Mary, nine
grandchildren and two great
grandchildren.

have warm bonds of sympathy with
these objectives for we, too, are
victims of U.S. domination and of the
crisis-ridden system of monopoly
capitalism.”

Addressing the rally at city hall
were Alderman Harry Rankin, NDP
MLA Dave Barrett and student Sue
Klaus. Rankin said the Canadian
public want to hear what the policies
are of ‘‘the swinger’? who is now
Prime Minister, and if they are not
the policies we want we should.
“swing him out.”

Under the chairmanship of Tom
Clarke, vice president of the
Vancouver local of the IWA, the huge
crowd heard NDP MLA Alex
MacDonald speak on behalf of T. C.
Douglas, MP (who was detained in
Ottawa), Rabbi John Sherwood and
UBC student Hilda Thomas.

Opening the meeting Clarke
regretted the support which the
official labor movement in the U.S.
headed by George Meany, was giving
to the war in Vietnam. However, he
pointed to the challenge arising in
USS. labor against Meany’s policy.

MacDonald charged that Canada
was very deeply involved in the war
in Vietnam and so was every
Canadian. He said that if the U.S.
can get away with‘this aggression
the world will have taken a long
‘‘march towards the nuclear
graveyard.”

Accusing the Canadian
government of backing the U.S. war
financially and in other ways,
MacDonald said the U.S. squeeze on
Canada has resulted in high interest
rates and lack of action on housing’
and other social needs in Canada.
“Canadian arms are stoking the
American war in Vietnam . . . and
we have no right to pretend to be
neutral while we are trafficking in
arms. This should stop at once,’’ he
said amidst loud applause.

MacDonald said the protest
movement of today has checked the
warmakers. Urging that Canada
should stand up as an indepedent
power for peace and humanity,
MacDonald said: ‘‘Keep marching,
keep protesting. The fight must be

”

won.

Trudeau must halt war shipments’

Rabbi Sherwood said he was
speaking on behalf of those members
of the Jewish faith who are faithful
to their thousands of years old
tradition.

Among the many organizations

which took part in the march were:
Marine Workers and Boilermakers
Union; International Brotherhood of
Electrical Workers Local 213; Voice
of Women, Religious Society of
,Quakers; B.C. Peace Council;
Communist Party, Bethune Youth
Club; Vietnam Day Committee;
University Teachers Committee on
Vietnam; United Fishermen and
Allied Workers Union; Nanaimo
Committee for Peace in Vietnam;
International Brigade (Spanish
veterans), and others.
