At the same time as these greetings were pouring in, the right wing leadership of Britain’s Labor Party were threatening Russell with ex- pulsion from the Party for this very same act of endors- ing the Conference. A statement made on his behalf by the Committee of 100 said: “Lord Russell is indifferent to anything the Labor Party -EARL RUSSELL may do in this matter. He will not withdraw his spon- sorship. “He considers the issue of human survival as far more important than Labor Party membership. * The Labor leaders are plan- ning to ask Lord Russell to withdraw his sponsorship of the Congress since it is or- ganized by the World Peace Council, a body ostracized by the Labor Party. Lord Russell has already charged Hugh Gaitskell and George Brown with hypocri sy for their attacks on mem- bers of the Campaign for Nu- clear Disarmament and the Committee of 100 following the May Day rallies in Glas- gow and London. He recalled that the Labor Party Conference opposed resumption of atmospheric tests by any power, and said it was obvious that Gaitskell had no respect for opinion within or without his own party. Russell has already served time in jail for his unshake- able resolve to actively fight for peace and disarmament. Notable absentees from the world leaders who sent Earl Russell good wishes for his 90th birthday on May 18 were British Prime Minister Harold Macmillan and US. President John Kennedy . STEWART HITS TORY, LIBERAL STAND ON COLUMBIA TREATY “The Tories and Liber- als are in complete agree- ment on the proposal to give the Columbia River to: the USA”, Wm. Stewart, candidate for Vancouver South told a well attended, meeting at the Polish Hall, Fraser St., Thursday. “The only difference of opinion is how to gift wrap it,’ he said. Stewart drew at- tention to a statement of Er- nest Broome, Tory M.P. in Vancouver: South in the last Parliament, on the Columbia. “Vir. Broome appears to be in an absolute panic that if we don’t accept the present Draft Treaty, the Americans will develop alternative methods of power development and will lose interest in the Col- umbia. This he states will cost Canadians thousands of jobs. “Perhaps Mr. Broome’s term of office in Ottawa has clouded his vision so that he is only able to see Canada from a position south of the 49th parallel’, Stewart stated. “In this case I must remind him that the develop- ment of the Columbia does not depend one iota on the Americans. Canada can go ahead and develop the Col- umbia River to provide for the generation of power in Canada for Canadians with- out the permission of Uncle Sam, hard as this is for servile politicians who have made a profession of selling our national resources and heritage to American buc- caneers for a fast buck, to understand.” “As for thousands of jubs’’, Stewart said, “If the Colum- bia River is developed as con- ceived by the Draft Treaty, which Mr. Broome is so anx- ious to see rammed through, the jobs will flow across the border with the river.” “Relatively few Canadian jobs will be created in trans- forming the Arrow Lake and ~ other districts into a water- shed for American power and business interests. The jobs will be created in the US. as a result of the power gen- erated at American power sites. Stewart also noted that John Davis, candidate for the Liberal Party in Coast Capi- lano and ex-Researcher for Premier Bennett's Pe# River Project, is plugging the signing of the DF Treaty . 4 “The people of this or ince must be made 24 that it is the intention of the Liberals and Torié carry through one of the” gest betrayals in the © history of Canada, if thé elected, by putting into © the present Draft ColU River Treaty. ; “B.C. people and ; tions to come will pay vay cost for such betrayal 4 is important to elect” munist M.P.’s to OttaW the forthcoming electi® that the Party which ha posed this plot from the™ set can speak from thé trum of Parliament in 4 clear ‘voice to block SUG) sell-out”, Stewart concludg “I'm sorry, old boy, we can’t lend you anything on this!” Green hints chance Canada may join OA? If either Tories or Lib- erals have their way, Canada may soon become involved in an American- directed hemispheric on- slaught against democracy through the Organization of American States. This was revealed by a lit-. tle - publicized statement of External Affairs Minister Green reported last April 26, and by an article in the May 14 issue of the U.S. News and World Report.
