LETTER NO. i,

Dear Rattor:

The opportunity you have given me} -
suggestions which | -

of. offering some
might..be helpful to members of the
inadian Weekly Neswpaner, Associa:
tion is-very much appreciated.

-T have discussed your Ietter with
Rev. GC, E, Sileox, general secretary,

press’ representative . of the | United
“hireh of Canada. As # result of this
the wnder-noted
“uggestions.

Tt is our feeling that if the Canadian

something really’ worth
while, "to make Canada a better place
‘in which to work and live” it would be

. advisable to pool their efforts and to|~'
attack the task with some collective
_ Dan.
