LABOR UNITY

Ted Hansen, Surrey, B.C.
writes: Your article in the PT of
Dec. 5th under the heading, “Big
bosses.prepare for gang-up on
labor in ’70’’ prompted me to
drop you a few lines. I do not
think I should have to introduce
myself although you no doubt
have met so many people in the

be very easy to forget one lone
fighter in the struggle.

I am, was and always will bea
believer in unity of the working
class, but am sorry to say can

see very little of it in the trade
unions of today. In warning of
the tycoons in the ‘‘Employers
Council of B.C.’’, you could have,
I think, possibly assisted some of
the workers in knowing where
they stand, by naming some of
the executive heads of many of
* our’ trade unions, not only in
4 ©B.C.; but in the whole of North
: athe: many of'them who are

“Council tycoons. I think it is only

Well, like I said, I believe in
unions and unity of the workers,
‘but I do. not believe in sellout
unions or unions that blacklist
workers. I am sick and tired of
these unions and their policies,
to the extent that if I do not find

being blacklisted out of it by
some union burocrat), I am
either going to take my case to
my MLA — or I am going to put
up a one-man picket line at the
union office in New West-
minister. If you have any other
suggestions drop me a line and
let me know of them.

Ed. Note: This paper believes
in and upholds the right of a
unions membership to deter-
mine its own affairs without
outside interference. I t does not
however support the ‘right’ of
any union leadership, domestic
or foreign, to deprive a Canadian
worker of his (or her) job, and
hence the right to earn a liveli
hood. )

No PT next week

In keeping with previous years
the Pacific Tribune will not
publish in the week’ between
Christmas and New Years. Our
next issue will appear the first
week in January.

With that issue the PT will be
entering the new decade of the
70’s — the decade which will
belong to labor and all those
fighting for peace and a better
Canada.
