Large audience sees
Shevchenko concert

“As you go forward in the
guidance of Shevchenko’s
heritage, we go with you to
the day when man is to man
a brother” ... these words

set the tone for the Annual |

Shevchenko. Concert, which
was staged by the Associa-
tion of ° United Ukrainian
Canadians’ at the Queen Eliz-

abeth Theatre on Sunday,~

March 25.
This was. the closing line

of a telegram sent to the

AUWC by the United Jewish

People’s Order, and summed.
up. perfectly the very essence.

of the production.

Performed before a most
receptive audience of almost
2,000, which reached far be-
yond the borders of the
Ukrainian community, the
concert offered a little bit of
everything from dramatic
readings to the traditional
Ukrainian folk dance. The
level of the concert was very

high — both in content and
performance.

Both the Rusalka and Ly-
senko choirs turned in credit-
able performances (as indeed

did the entire cast of over -

200) and individual laurels
are extremely hard to. distri-
bute. In all fairness, how-
ever, it must be stated that

the Dancers’ ‘sparkling réndi-.

tion of .the very difficult”
“Ukrainian Wedding” stood
out as the individual high-
light. of a very balanced pro-
duction, with the Orchestra’s
rendition of Bach's Prelude
in G.-Minor running .a close
second. Entertainment-wis e,
these two. efforts seemed to
capture the greatest response
from the audience.

The real story of the even-
ing, however lies in its theme,
which was unmistakably
clear — a message of peace,
freedom and democracy — a
message of the day “when
man is to man a brother.”

FORMER B.C. LONGSHORE
LEADER DIES IN U.S.A.

The last of a famous trio
of trade union leaders whose
names are written deep in the
struggles of Vancouver long-
shoremen, passed away re-
cently at his home in Con-
cord, California.

Ivan Emery, leader of the
Vancouver waterfront strike
of 1935 and its historic “battle
of Balantyne Pier.” In that
great struggle to win union
recognition and decent wages
for the longshoremen of B.C.,
the names of “Emery, Salo-
nen and Brown’ were known
from: Vancouver. Island. to
Cape Breton. (Oscar Salonen
and George Brown passed
away some years: ago).

Shipping’ Federation » and

»Vancouver police launched-a

violent attack upon the long-
shore pickets and supporters,
an attack now known in B.C.
labor history as the “Battle
of the Balantyne Pier.’ Many
strikers were brutally club-

IVAN EMERY

Norquay clubs,

bed and beaten and smashed
to the ground by mounted
police, and later given long
prison terms on the trumped-
up charge of ‘rioting’. Ivan
Emery was one of those im-
prisoned.

The Pacific Tribune ex-
tends its sympathy and con-
dolences to Mrs. Emery and
family, and salutes the mem-
ory of a valiant trade union-
ist whose name, together with
the names of Salonen and
Brown, will be forever en-
graved in the stirring history
of B.C. labor.
