Demands ’

Dr. Joe Blumes, prominent city
dentist, has announced his inten-’
tion of running as an independent
candidate for school .board ingthe
forthcoming Vancouver civic elec-
tions.

Associated with the B.C. College
of Dental Surgeons, the Queen
Mary PTA and the Vancouver
Peretz Institute, Dr. Blumes has
won for himself considerable re-
cognition in the last few years.
Active on his sponsoring commit-
tee are:

Dr, Lyle Telford, Dr. Norman
Black, Mrs. David Freeman, Dr.
James White, Rev. Jackson Wray,
and Dr. M. Kahn.

Impatient with the evasive NPA
machine, Dr. Blumes is campaign-
ing on the following program:

ing the United States tuna fleet
and actively injures the develop-
ment of a Canadian tuna fleet.
Does Mayhew expect the fisher-
men to accent a treaty which
lays the basis for a similar. de-
struction of our trawl fisheries,
our long-line fisheries and our
crab fisheries? .

to note that only three species of
fish are mentioned. Fishermen
want to know why the sablefish,
cod, soles, greyfish and other spe-
cies are not specifically protect-
ed. These fisheries have all play-
ed an important part in main-
taining the B.C. fishing industry.
