WRITES FROM IRELAND Mabel Richards, PT staff member, is on holiday in Europe. In a letter to the PT last week she wrote: “We went through Belfast on Friday. There are numerous broken windows and many stores are boarded up or have iron grilles at the window. The only incident we saw was a number of women and children gathered in a narrow street through which we passed, shouting excitedly at the soldiers, half hidden back in an alley. “The British soldiery lumber down Belfast streets in armored trucks with two soldiers manning long-nosed rifles. Out here in the country, half-way between Londonderry and Belfast it is completely peaceful, with Roman Catholics and Protestants living farm-by-farm in harmony. “It is my belief, for what it 1s worth, that the very confusion and bewilderment of the older Protestant Ulsterite will lead to the eventual downfall of the Stormont regime - - - he younger people do seem to see what they are fighting for, an will probably win in the end, a united Ireland.” TED HARRIS | 757 East Hastings St. Vancouver 4, B.C.

Bennett protesting his action in renaming the Trans-Canada Highway. A resolution adopted by a membership meeting Sept. 12 said this, and other actions by the Premier, are ‘‘directed against the very essence of Confederation, which was to establish a viable trans-Canada communication link.” The resolution, signed on behalf of the organization by Osmo Lahti, condemned the Premier’s “narrow, ‘provincial’ actions’’ and demanded the government and elected repre- «sentatives “act in the national interest.” Beaver Transfer * Moving * Packing '* Storage 790 Powell St. Phone 254-3711 ——————— Workers : Benevolent Assn.

At this point there are more than 400 subscriptions ready to be renewed and hundreds more will expire in the coming weeks. Subscriptions are the life blood of our paper and on their prompt renewal depends the future of this paper. This has been the case in years gone by and is true today. This year however, there is far more involved than the mere renewal of 900 or so expiries, even though this in itself is very important. The Pacific Tribune has been extremely hard hit by rising costs of printing and mailing and as a result our paper faces very serious problems. Instead of keeping abreast of rising costs in our operation during the first nine months of this year — instead of holding our own as we had hoped, costs have outpaced our income and unless we succeed in boosting our circulation significantly during the next two months to make up for lost ground, the PT may be forced to make some very unpleasant and costly retreats. Failure or success of this year’s circulation campaign for obvious reasons takes on an added dimension. At a time when there is a desperate need of our paper and when the working people, because of Nixon’s savage economic warfare against Canada, face extremely grim prospects, it is of the utmost importance that the circulation of our paper is not only main- tained, but that it is boosted. The PT is B.C.’s only labor weekly and must be kept going. Unlike the big commercial press which can engage in expen- sive advertising, the PT can only be promoted by the PT readers themselves however. | Help build the PT If you are a reader of this paper now and your sub comes up for renewal during that period we urge you to renew promptly. But we also appeal to you to win new readers. Your friends, your neighbors and your workmates would like to read the PT regularly— they need the Pacific Tribune to understand everyday events and to become a conscious force towards meaningful change. One tested way in which circulation can be boosted is by engaging in socialist compe- tition. On this page a letter-to- the-editor by Bob Towle, a PT veteran, is challenging all readers and Press Clubs to a socialist competition for winning new readers. We welcome Bob’s initiative and hope that many more of our friends will take up this challenge and follow suit. As a supporter of the PT we urge you to win at least ohe new reader to make this. all important drive a success. We invite you to write to the PT to tell us whether you are willing to help. To keep our readers and Press workers informed about the progress of this all impor- tant campaign we will regularly report about it in this column during the next two months. HELP BUILD THE PT.
