According to Maurice ~ Rush, Provincial Organizer, queries are coming in every day from work- ers asking where they can join the LPP. Some clubs have al- ready beat the gun, said Rush, and have gone ahead with the drive. He pointed to the new sawmill club established in Van- couver which during the last few weeks built a membership of 35, with many more waiting to be invited to the next meeting. EHrom Kelowna comes a report that 19 new members—from local sawmills—have joined. More than half of these are reported to be veterans of World War 2. The loggers are also joining the party in large numbers. This in- flux of workers from the logging industry shows that the workers have learnt from their strike ex- perience that labor needs a strong, militant socialist working class party.
