THE WESTERN CANADIAN LUMBER WORKER

1-367 MEMBERSHIP MEETING |

A general membership
meeting of Local 1-367 was
convened in Mission on July
30, 1966.

Regional Second Vice-Presi-
dent Del Pratt in his address
to the meeting remarked on
the accomplishments of the
Regional Council over the
past year and dwelled on such
subjects as B.C. Coast rate re-
visions in sawmilling and log-
ging, planermen rate revision,
electrician and _ millwright
training programs, the Nem-
etz report—its special benefits

‘to coastal plywood workers
and travel time for loggers—
and the threat of automation
to the membership as a whole
and to the loggers in particu-
lar. Speaking on the present
contract negotiations in Ques-
nel and on Southern: Interior
rate revisions he remarked:
“The Southern Interior lum-
ber operators are on a colli-
sion course if they do not
come to grips with the senti-
ments of their employees re-
garding the present discrep-

ancies when comparing the
Southern Interior category
rates with those on the

Coast.”

In his report to the mem-
bership Local Union Presi-
dent Glenn Haddrell spoke on
the ‘“aboslute capitulation”
by Canadian Forest Products
Ltd. regarding the re-estab-
lishment of the marshalling
point at the Harrison Mills
Logging Division. It was also
refreshing to hear that the
crew’s legal strike action had
greatly contributed to a
change in that company’s pol-
icy in regard to summer vaca-
tions. Formerly no employee
of the Harrison Mills Logging
Division was allowed to enjoy
summer vacations with his
family, whereas of now appli-
cations for that purpose are
being received and consid-
ered.

The membership decided to
have the Local President ap-
point a business agent during
the

temporary absence of

ART COREY, Financial Secretary, and Jack Theriault,
Recording Secretary, busily at work during Local 1-367
general membership meeting held July 30.
