Haywood, 2,613,103, ‘Haywood for re-élection to the greater constitutional powers. However, it appeared that a residue of bitterness will- remain. “Until the last minute observers believed the floor fight might not come off and that Haywood would withdraw,” it was reported. “But Haywood supporters said the vot- ing was necessary to show Reuther ‘he doesn’t have everything his own way.’ Reuther succeeded Philip Mur- ray- who died in San Francisco November 9. He had carried on a running feud with Murray, pitting the Auto Workers, which he heads, against the Steelworkers, headed by Murray. : The jurisdictional rivalry be- tween the two giant CIO unions - was one factor in the heated elec- tion contest. Another was Reu- ther’s overweening ambition, and striving for power, which was feared by many of his CIO col- leagues, particularly those in the rose.

Later in the month Ray Gardner and Mrs. Sheila Young will tour’ Vancouver Island. B.C. Peace Council is asking peace supporters to organize num- erous house meetings at which delegates can speak on their re- turn : VIENNA In order to publicize the Conr gress of the Peoples the Austrian Peace Council has issued a “Peace Groschen.” This is a coin on, which there is an impression of St. Stephen’s Cathedral and an announcement of.the congress. The coin has been issued in two forms: the ordinary one is sold for one Austrian schilling and the “gold” coin for five. schillings. The peace supporters say to people, “Buy a peace groschen so that Steffi (popular expression for St. Stephen’s Cathedral) may stay put.” In the space of several days 169,000 of the coins were sold.

Reuther’s election, in the view of labor observers, dimmed pros- pects of genuine efforts for labor unity, and foreshadowed a pos- sible extension of CIO raiding op- erations, particularly against the independent unions which were expelled from CIO. Reuther is the leader of what has been termed the “Social-Demo- cratic’? wing in CIO, a group of union chieftains who had been as- sociated with the Socialist party and are adept at the radical phrase to cover a policy of col- laborating with employers.

Young runners — students and other young people—from many countries are now taking part in a relay race to Vienna in honor of the Congress. The runners from Great Britain, Holland, Bel- gium and Luxemburg will pass through France and Switzerland.

Participants from Poland, Italy and other countries will join the relay at various points.
