MONTREAL “Hesitation is no longer permis- sible: We must oppose war.” This is the headline of an editorial ar- ticle appearing in the August 5 issue of Le Fromt Ouvrier, regard- ed as the organ of the Catholic Syn- dicates in which 100,000 French-

Canadian workers are organized. The article states: “Since the hos- tilities in Korea the official propa- ganda which is inspired by the press agencies under the control of powerful economic interests has not ceased to repeat that we must sup- port the USA in their fight against

the North Koreans.

“We have also launched the atomic bomb scare. At the be- ginning of the hostilities we were) not afraid to sit and write that

we had to use this great means to stop aggression. Even if Sec- retary of State Dean Acheson went into a blue rage because of the success of the petition of the partisans of peace in Europe which condemns the aggressor armed with the atomic bomb, we know that it is the USA, and the USA alone, that has used atomic

DON'T BE STAMPEDED

Don’t be fooled by the hysterical war propaganda. Remember it’s OUR Poison gas used in World War I, was _success- fully outlawed in World War II by the vigorous expression of popular revulsion. We, the people, are strong enough and THERE IS STILL TIME, to prevent the use of atom bombs and to save world peace.

The article quotes the statement of the Bishops of France and of the Pope with regard to war and then deals with an article in Le Devoir of July 27 which stated:

weeks a hesitation amongst Catho- lics. No doubt they do not like war as a means to settle disputes among nations, but they are afraid of Com- munism and the spreading of So-

viets. ‘We must somehow do some-

thing to stop them.’

“The appeal of the Holy Father comes just in time to recall to all Catholics that war will not settle anything, that it will create moral and social problems a hundred times more complicated than those we actually have to solve. It is not a crusade for war that the Pope preaches, but a crusade for peace.”

“Are we again going to sit by? It is time that the citizens had their say and let their opposition be heard and made known to the one that represents them in par- liament, which will make the deci-

Unions donate $8,000 to fight ‘Kuzych case’

Close to $8,000 has been contributed to the Marine and Boilermaker’s Union by trade unions from every province to help finance the Boilermakers take their appeal against the notorious ‘“Kuzych decision” to the Privy Council. Tot- al cost of the action will be approximately $20,000.

“Unions donating to this cause are helping to finance the fight to save trade union rights,’ said William Stewart, secretary of the Marine Workers. “We intend to circula- rize every trade union in the coun- try, asking them to share the bur- den with-us.”

Thousands of .copies of a union folder entitled “Subsidized Disrup- tion”, giving the history of the no- torious ‘Kuzych case’ and how it affects all trade unions, are being distributed to trade councils across Canada.

“How would you like to have

a fink or professional] labor spy

openly planted in the ranks of your union and kept there by order of the courts?” asks the union leaflet.

“That’s not a pleasant prospect,” it continues. “Yet right at this moment it’s part of the law of British Columbia.. For the courts’ of B.C. have made a ruling which Says that unions may not expel — even by properly-constituted trial committee — any member who be- trays the interests of his fellow- members,”
