ARTHUR TURNER

Lift franchise
says Turner

Arthur Turner, CCF mem-
ber for Vancouver East, has
called upon Highways Minis-
ter P. A. Gaglardi to cancel
the Bowen Island franchise to
serve Bowen Island.

In an open letter to the min-
ister he charged that the popu-
lation of Bowen Island has
not increased in ten years,
through lack of cheap and ef-
ficient transportation. - “Fami-
lies have been leaving the is-
land and school is suffering
from a shortage of pupils.”

A large part of Bowen Is-
land is owned by the steamship
company and operated as a
tourist resort in the summer.

The merger between the Am-
algamated Meat Cutters and
the United Packinghouse
Workers has_ been postponed
indefinitely. Disagreement
over division of top positions
caused the rift, according to
UPWA officials who have re-

turned to Vancouver from .-

Chicago. While the Amalga-
mated is the larger internation-
al union, Packinghouse has
more members in B.C. It has
2,500 members here, compar-
ed with 1,200 for the other
group.

Seven hundred bridge work-

tions, the report recommended
20 cents spread over two years
and payment for all statutory
holidays.

James Barton, representing
the union, turned in a minority
report. He recommended the
scale of wages recently agreed
to in the shipyards, which
would give the bridge work-
ers 20 cents the first year and
15 cents the second year.
