Gov't defeats motion
on union submissions

An attempt to revive the le-
gislature’s standing committee
on labor was defeated 32 to 9
in the House last Friday. after
Labor Minister Lyle Wicks op-
posed ‘the motion on_ the
grounds that the government
and MLA’s are “kept amply in-
formed on labor matters.”

Leo Nimsick (CCF. Cran-
brook) contended a commit-
tee was needed to hear further
representations on briefs sub-
mitted by unions.

Secondary teachers
vote activities curb

The 815-member

Vancouver

Secondary School Teachers’

Association voted Tuesday this week to approve a “boycott” of

all extra-curricular

school activities unless negotiations for

the 1948 salafy scale are successful.
President Norval Brown said he hoped that the motion

will never have to be invoked.
It would end teachers’ activi-
ties in sports, drama and other
clubs, dances and other non-
teaching activities.

An earlier motion, passed, by
the teachers two weeks ago
would have had teachers with-
draw from all extra-curricular
activities next November 15
unless “satisfactory” salary
scales for 1958 had been con-
cluded by then.

This motion was withdrawn
and a new one submitted Tues-
day, on the ground that at-
tendance at the last meeting
was small and the motion had
carried by a slim majority.

Walter Moult, chairman of
the association’s publicity com-
mittee, announced that the new

motion was passed “almost
unanimously” by
dance” this week.

“The motion. was designed
to counteract the delaying tac-
tics of trustees in negotiations,”
said Moult

“Extra curricular activities

a “full atten-_

are carried on, but the board |

of school trustees accepts no
responsibility for them,” he
continued. “The teachers do
them voluntarily.”

Some teachers take students
to games in their cars and un-
der the law would be held res-
ponsible for injuries should a
traffic accident occur. But
school trustees have never
reached agreement on any pro-
tection for teachers in the
event of an accident.
