Let's give sub drive] Avro policy termed another
sellout of national interest

a collective push

Press clubs in Greater Van-
couver and the province are
running a neck and neck race
in the current Pacific Tribune
circulation campaign, with
Vancouver’ a nose in front

with 137 subs turned in to the
province’s 126 subs. The total

of 263 ‘subscriptions _ still
leaves us a long way from our
1,000 goal.

Nanaimo last Sunday, and we
expect good results from Is-
land points in tthe coming
week. Present score shows
Nanaimo leading with 29 subs,
followed by Victoria (14), Al-
berni (12), Cumberland (8),
Campbell River (3) and Lake
Cowichan (1). Courtenay and
Parksville haven’t been heard
from.

In Greater Vancouver the
leading press_clubs are North
Burnaby (18 subs), Broadway
(13), Hastings East (11), Ken-
sington (11), Electrical (9),
Advance (7), Grandview (7),
North Van City (7), Dry Dock
(6) and South Burnaby (6).

Best .results have been
achieved by press clubs which
have begun to adopt the
“Make. One Night a Week
PT Night” slogan; and by a
few clubs which are stepping
up street sales.

There’s still a long way to
go to reach our minimum
target of 1,000 subs. Far too
many readers and supporters
are still “sitting out” the
drive. Only a real collective

: effort will guarantee success

and ensure continued publi-
cation of the paper. Will YOU
do something to help? Send
in your own renewal if it is
due. Sign up a new reader.
Send a sub to a friend. Or
try your hand at selling the
PT on the street and at plant
gates.

TORONTO—‘“Without consultirig parliament, the Diefenbaker government has put this ©
country completely at the mercy of the U.S. nuclear-war maniacs,” the LPP national committee —

declared in a statement issued here last week.

The statement continues:

“After squanderng almost
$400 million on the already
obsolete Avro Arrow (money
which could have been used
to build up Canada) the cabi-
net has decided to hand over
the so-called defense of Can-
ada to the U.S. through the
U.S. Army’s Bomare guided
missile.

“This is the shameful and
stupid response of the govern-
ment to the age the inter-
continental guided
which at one stroke made jet
fighters . and bombers com-
pletely out of date.

‘Tt is a plain as the nose on
your face that this country’s
U.S.-dominated ‘defense policy’
is nothing but a means of
permitting the U.S. War De-
partment to use Canada as a
launching pad for nuclear war.

“Already the RCAF is
under U.S. command. Our
Arctic regions are controlled
by U.S. armed forces — so
that even Canadian cabinet

missile,

ministers cannot visit there
without U.S. military permis-
sion. a

“And now, to cap it all,
even the remaining shadow of
Canadian control has been
wiped out by the Bomarc de-
cision.

“Avro workers are threaten-
ed with layoffs. This is the
company which, under gov-
ernment instructions, scrap-
ped its commercial jetliner
program in favor of the CF-
100, and now the Arrow.

“The aircraft industry, one
of Canada’s big post-war
achievements, is doomed by
the Bomarc decision. It prom-
ises to follow our merchant
marine down the drain, un-
less the governments wild
policy is changed by public
action.

“The time has come to call
a halt to this policy of nation-
al suicide.

“Laid-off Avro workers, the
victims of government policy,

should be given severance pay
pending their return to work
Set Avro to work
Canadian commercial jetliners
instead of importing
from abroad.

“There
civil defense

is no military OF
from nuclear

weapons. There is no defense

from the inter - continental
guided missile. :
“What threatens this coun.
try’s safety is our humiliating
and slavish subordination —
via the federal government —

to the U.S. war maniacs wh0 J

right now are violently intel
fering in China’s internal af-
fairs, just as they did in Le
banon, Korea, and Guatemala.

‘Remove U.S. armed forces

from Canadian territory. Let

Canada‘ declare to the U
General Assembly
only the stoppage of bomb
tests, and the scrapping °
stocks and production of NU”
clear weapons, can _ briné
safety and security to Cam
ada, and all other countries.”
