From all indications, Premier
Dave Barrett (and his deputy
finance Minister Gerry Bryson,
who was also deputy minister:
of finance in the Socred govern-
ment apparently made a
‘“‘sood’’ impression when he met
with top Wall Street tycoons
during his recent visit to New
York.

Here are some choice remarks
made by some of the top money-
lenders after being grilled with
his deputy in that bastion of U.S.
capitalism— Wall Street.

“His brand of socialism is
about as conservative as that of
the most rock-ribbed Republi-
can in this country. . . Mr.

~ NUCLEAR TESTS

Cont'd from pg. 1!

The Environmental Council
delegation included Lois Boyce,
executive director of the B.C.
Environmental Council, Rev.
Peter Fribley, international
affairs chairman of the B.C. Con-
ference of the United Church of
Canada, Ray Haynes, secretary-
treasurer of the B.C. Federation
of Labor, and Dr. John Foulks.

Mrs. Boyce said in a press
release following the meeting
with the French consul general,
that Ray Haynes indicated the
BCFL had voted $500 to help
Greenpeace sail into the test
area, and that the Federation’s
executive had doubled the
suggested donation.

Greenpeace set sail from Van-
couver last week to converge on
the nuclear test area near Tahiti,
from
Australia and New Zealandare
expected to join the protest.

The B.C. Environmental Coun-
cil has called on the Federal
government to request France
to withdraw hertradecommis-
sioners from Canada, and has
stepped up its efforts to urge
people to resist buying French
goods.

There are growing signs that
France is feeling the pressure of
world public opinion and may
speed up the test before world
indignation can _ be fully
mobilized and protest ships get

as a social worker than a
socialist and after hearing him,
I’m inclined to believe him. . .”’

The most outspoken in praise
of Barrett was Albert Esokait,
former executive vice-presi-
dent of Moody’s, the influential
WallSt., credit-rating agency,
who headed a team of Moody’s
executives in grilling Barrett
and his deputy.

‘‘We see nothing at this point
to threaten our assessment. The
province was in top financial
position when he took office. We
are hopeful it is going to remain

that way...”
‘‘But I don’t view him as the
typical socialist — he has

impression he won’t carry out
his philosophy when it will affect
the growth of business -and
industry. ..”’

‘‘Asa socialist, he has, I think,
more awareness than most
socialists I have met that it is
money that makes possible the
things he wants to do.”’

These words, coming from the
mouths of some of the top money-
lenders in the U.S. who have
always demanded their pound of
flesh, coming together with
Barrett’s oft-repeated state-.
ment that he willdo nothing to:
kill the goose that lays the golden
egg, will be received with much
concern by class conscious and

centre and transfer terminal in
the area. ‘‘Paving is to start

sponsors of the rally.
