MEANS TO WIN BERLIN TRIP B.C. peace When British pea Peace Council announced a fortnight ago that the province’s champion young peace worker would be sent to Ber- lin this summer to participate in the World Youth Peace Festival, 16- year-old Carole Kelley, of 1229 Franklin Street, Vancouver, al- ready had collected 300 signatures on the Peace Pact petition. Today Carole has more than 700 names — and confidently told the Pacific Tribune that her total of signatures would pass the 1,000 mark this coming weekend. “How do you do it?” asked the PT reporter. “Why, I just ask people if. they want peace instead of war, and if they say yes, I ask them to put heir names down, in order that our government will know that the people want a World. Pact of Peace,” answered ‘Carole. Talk to Carole Kelley for five minutes and it becomes evident that this young woman wastes .no time in aimless chatter before tackling a job. When the National Federation of Labor Youth club to which she belongs asked Carole to try and get a few subs for the new youth paper, Champion, Carole promptly went out and signed up 33 subscribers. Just one year ago Carole, then a student at Templeton Junior High, wasn’t even faintly interested in “politics.” She was a track and field star (senior girls’ champion in 1950) and spent her spare hours practising to become a_ wrestler and Judo expert at the Western Sports Centre. Softball, bowling and swimming were also among her favorite sports. “T shied away from anything I thought was political,’ says Carole. “T didn’t sign the Stockholm Ap- peal to ban the atom bomb, in fact, I didn’t hear much about that petition campaign until it was ‘all over.” Eight months ago Carole joined the NFLY and began to “wake up to some of the things going on in the world, and see how political events concerned me, too.” She got “pretty mad” about the attempt of Carl Berg’s union raiders to smash Local 28, Civic Employees Union.

Three weeks ago she was fired for union activity, but the firm’s attempt to smash the newWly- formed union failed, and contract negotiations are now taking place. “T started canvassing my neigh- borhood for signatures as soon as the World Peace Petition came out,” says Carole, “and collected 144 names in 12 blocks on Franklin Street. Then I started going out on the streets every day. How many signatures do I intend to get? ee aney to win that trip to Ber- in!” CONTINUED CANVASS cess with the council’s new leafiet, “Make Your Name Stand for Peace.” Best results are achieved by distributing the leaflet to a group of houses one night and then by following up with the petition a night or two later, North Van- couver reports., Quantities ofthis leaflet are ob- tainablé on request at B.C. Peace Council office, Room 41, 144 West Hastings Street. The petition is drawing excellent response in the mills. One Van- couver sawmill reports 50 percent of the workers signed up in a two- day drive. ‘ South Surrey Peace Council, with more than 500 signatures, is set- ting the pace for smaller councils. The council, centred on White Rock, is publishing two half-page ad- vertisements, explaining the peti- tion, in local papers. Monday night a team of White Rock can- vassers hit Cloverdale for a one- night house-to-house canvass and gathered close to 100 signatures. House-to-house canvassing is well under way in Vancouver. Kitsilano peace workers were among the first to go out, reported 100 signa- tures within a couple of hours their first night out. They plan canvasses every Wednesday night. This week 11 Kitsilano peace peti- tioners went out again for two hours and ‘collected 221 names. ‘We met with a most favorable response, and found that distribution of a peace leaflet the previous evening had aroused considerable interest,” said the Kitsilano canvassers. Peace workers in Vancouver are asked to contact B.C. Peace Coun- cil (MArine 9958) for information concerning house-to-house canvass- ing. Council is also appealing to all petitioners and all local councils to send in completed petition forms immediately, $20,000 bail raised in day for Gladys Hilland Arrest of .Mrs. Gladys Hilland, former financial secre- tary of Local. 1-217, International Woodworkers of America. by RCMP thts week,’ reopened the question of settlement of the bitter union, dispute which began in October, 1948, when a section of the IWA broke with the parent or ganiza- tion to set up the Woodworkers Industrial Union of Canada. Woodworkers and friends found no difficulty in raising $20,000 bail for Mrs. Hillard within 24 hours, indicating that there is widespread public sentiment in favor of healing the union split and dropping of old charges. (Mrs. Hillard was charg- ed with “theft”; arising out of the transfer of funds at the time of the WIUC breakaway).

Peace is winning all over the world”. These words from the national leader of the Labor-Pro- gressive party, Tim Buck, formed the heart of an address to delegates attending the second convention of the National Federation of Labor Youth. Guest of honor at a banquet,, Buck gave a striking picture ot what Canada could be like under socialism. ‘We could irrigate the prairies, control the great power sources of the Rockies and Quebec. There is nothing in the world to prevent Canada enjoying “the high- est standard of living .. . there is. nothing to prevent Canada achiev- ing ina new way the dream of men like Laurier. ge Earlier Buck told of how the early Canadian capitalists had 42 vision of a land of 30 to 40 million citizens, a country outstripping even the U.S. in its industrial pow- er, S “Compare this vision of the cap- italists of that day with the policy of the capitalist government of St. Lauren. They have given up the dream of building up the country. They have adopted a policy of sel- ling Canada as it stands ... they are peddling away its resources to promoters and monopolists .. . so that Canada can be dug up, chopp- ed down, delivered away, instead of developing its natural resources and its industry. This is a betrayal of Canada.” Directing his remarks to the younger generation whose future is in the balance because of tnese policies, Buck charged that the St. ately betraying the future of Can- Laurent government was ‘deliber- ada by making its resources avail- able to the U.S. monopolies for war. “The number of jobs, the level of wages, the number who can find professional or cultural opportuni- ties, all depend on the extent to which the country is developing in an all-round way industrially.” The St. Laurent war economy and sale of Canada was undermining the very future of its youth. Young Canadians were driven out of Canada forced to emigrate to the U.S. opportunities for development. The current drive for increasing Can- ada’s population through immigra- tion was actually part of the plan to gear Canada’s economy to a raw material type of production — a production where skills and tech- nique would not be needed. Buck commended the NFLY for its fight for the needs of youth and the aholition of, the age-old “fear of tomorrow” ‘that haunts the workers under capitalism. ; “The peace that we are going to win will be a peace worthwhile to live in. The peace that we win can- not be a peace with the evils of un-_ It will be © employment and crises. a peace of singing tomorows of jobs and unlimited opportunities, a new sort of peace, of happiness ant . security.” ' STEVESTON RENTAL LOCKERS $10.00 — Yearly STEVESTON FROSTED FOODS 855 Chatham St. : Phone Steveston 280 For Quality sand Service Call ISLAND CLEANERS Dyers - Launderers We Pick up and Deliver * 365 Moncton St. Phone Steveston 297 | RICHMOND. aeichnone baer Specializing in Rye and Fancy Breads 842 Moncton St. Phone Stevestion 333 ; PACIFIC TRIBUNE — MAY 11, 1951 — PAGE 6 in search of: « being, "a
