Rupert council refuses tag day PRINCE RUPERT, B.C — With Aid. Norton T. Youngs, who has consistently opposed all progressive proposals in- troduced into the council, in- Sisting that aldermen could not take sides in a dispute, Prince Rupert City Council this week refused the Trades and La- bor Council permission to hold a tag day for families of striking gold miners at Premier. Labor aldermen George Hills and Alex Sinclair lead the fight for the tag day, pointing out that the prolonged strike and now the bitter weather in the northern mining camp was working hard- ship on miners’ families. Majority of the Independent- dominated council, however, held to the stand that tag days should be granted to organizations hav- ing no other means of obtaining financial support, an argument promptly blasted by labor alder- men who maintained that it was absurd to pretend that such org- anizations as the IODE had no other sources of income. < ee Victoria backs subsidy demand VICTORIA—Adorned with sand- wich board signs and Carrying pe- titions, members of the Wabor- Progressive Party invaded down- town Victoria Saturday, Nov. 2, and collected 2,500 signatures in Support of the Party’s campaign to force the provincial government to assume the milk subsidy. Citizens lined up in queues on the sidewalk awaiting their turn to sign the petition. A common remark ovreheard by the canvas- sers was, “It is about time that Somebody did something about this question. Your organization is doing a good job.” Canvassers were so enthused with the public response to the petition that it was decided to have a further street canvass the following Saturday. Members of the LPP in Victoria are confident that a minimum quota of 5000 Signatures will be collected by November 11 and anticipate even more. LPP nominates four Burnaby candidates BURNABY, B.C. — At an all- Burnaby lLabor-Progressive Party conference held in the Rio Vista Hall, candidates for next month’s municipal elections were chosen.

LPP clubs planning for big baazar celebration — Top club in bazaar arrangements to date appears to be the Fairview club, closely followed by Kitsilano. The Fairview branch Has pledged to make up five hampers for the bazaar and both clubs are going ahead with organizing sewing circles and in getting their whole membership organized to contribute to the bazaar to their utmost. That variety in choice at the Sales will not be lacking was evident from the reports from the various clubs in Vancouver who are making such clothing ar- ticles as girls’ jumpers, woolen socks and other useful articles. industrial clubs, such as Victory Square and the Foundry Work- ers have promised a lot of fancy knives, ash trays, and so on. One comrade has even suggest- ed to the committee donation of a cedar chest to be raffled off at the bazaar, but more about this later. : The Sea and Shore club, as their contribution, will set up a both with a fortune teller, which should be a drawing card for the ladies. A big feature will be the Chil- dren’s Xmas Tree and Concert on Friday afternoon, December 13th. This really =promises to be quite an event, and will leave the wo- men free to shop at their leisure, which is something these days of high prices. These are only a few of the drawing cards “of the bazaar. There are many more; such as the cooking competitions whicn will be judged during the three- day carnival and the cooking sales which will commence directly af ter the- competitions have been judged. Getting the prize entry would really be a prize! The bazaar will commence at 7T p.m. on Wednesday, December dith and will be helq from 2 to 12 p.m. each successive night, winding up with the big dance on Friday. This is the big item for attention by the clubs, to see that lots of tickets are sold. With the above to popularize as the events of the day, selling tickets shouldn’t be a hard job. At the last meeting of the ba- zaar committee, it was reported that most clubs have not taken their quota of tickets, which, it was judged from last year’s re sults, could be sold. We believe this is only modesty on the part of the clubs, not wishing to show their full speed at once. However, remember, there are only five weeks to the Christmas Bazaar, So full speed ahead and now?! HIGHEST PRICES PAID for DIAMONDS, GOLD GOLD Other Valuable Jewellery STAR LOAN CO. Led.
