A resolution requesting the ad- ministration to facilitate the attendance of Japanese-Canadians at UBC was passed almost unanimously by a capacity meeting of the universit The meeting was called to dis- cuss the recent news that two Japanese-Canadian ‘students were unable to make uSe of the schol- VLC endorses Alsbury, Turner “Full support for the campaign of Tom: Alsbury for Mayor was voted at a meeting of the Givic Reform Committee last night,” John Turner, Labor candiaate for alderman announced today- “The choice facing Vancouver voters in the mayoralty contest is quite clear. Both the main performers in the circus that is being staged—McGeer and Wil- son—represent exactly the big business interests that have plundered our city throughout ten years of WNon-Partisan’ rule: Nebody should have any illusions that. if they are- re-elected, tax rates: will not continue to soar while our city continues to de- teriorate. Whatever differences anybody may have with the CCF, the fact is that Alsbury is the only Candidate around whom IJabor, ‘small home owners, small: busi- nessmen, tenants and all citi- zens Can raliy to Save our city.” ‘Turner, who is secretary of the Vancouver Laber Council which last night endorsed both his and Alsbury’s campaign, was put into the field by a committee of trade unionists and endorsed by the Civic Reform Committee, which is sponsoring the campaign of Elgin Ruddell in the aldermanic by-election and Effie Jones for School Board. _ Japanese y parliamentary forum. arship they had won due to the existing B.C.

He called the recent feeling against the Japanese 4 throwback to the dark ages. Grant Living- stene, president of the UBC branch of the Canadian Legion, also spoke out against the anti- attitude, calling it a violation of fundamental princi-— ples. The University campus “ Ubyssey-”’ published. an a C- count (in the November 19th is- Sue) of the opinion held by Euro- pean students regarding Canadian universities. The information= was contained in a report submitted by delegates from Canada to the ISS conference in England this summer. Political fever runs high in Huropean student groups, accord- ing to this report, with the stu- dent ready to identify himself as a communist, democrat, Socialist, paper knows his posi- experience and fabian, ete. He tion from hard defends it with vigor. Qn the other hand European students feel that Canadian undergradu- ates are dangerously complacent in their sense of political and Civic responsibility, pointing: out that the interests of the Canadian Student are bounded seemingly, by. his campus social elubs, his books, football games and dances. The necessity of a knowledge of ism in handling Huro- pean affairs was stressed by Senator Donald Grant of Aus- tralia in a speech to, the stu- dents on Monday, November 25. Stating that democracy has to be translated into food, cloth- ing and shelter, as well as Civil liberty, Senator Grant em-_ phasized that capitalism cannot Solve the problem. He criticized both Byrnes and Bevin for a lack of true understanding of Europe, mentioning that the former has no knowledge of Marxism, which is essential in dealing with Europe. Misleading advt. exposed by Spihun, Zug statement The Vancouver Sun, in its issue of November 18-19 car- tied an advertisement in its ‘personal’ represent ‘friends of the Soviet Union’ column, puporting to and offering to aid Canadians to emigrate to the USSR. The advertisement was obviously a clumsy provocation, and as such was brought to the Sun’s attention in a prepared Statement by Victor Spihun and There’li never be a time when the well-rounded individual won't take his mind off the cesmic and turn to the sports Pages for a draught of biolog- ically healthy escapism. And, ef course, the alert escapist turns to VANCOUVER SUN sports pages. ees Phone MArine 1161 for Daily Home Delivery Gora Geed. .

At the time of going to press the Sun had failed to publish their statement, text of which follows: “As spokesman of the New Soviet Citizens, whose purpose is to assist people of Russian and Ukrainian origin now resident in Canada to return to the USSR, | we are convinced that an adver- tisement appearing in the per Sonal column cf the Vancouver Sun this week is provocative and a complete distortion of the aims of Canadian workers proposing to return to Russia. This advertise- ment, to the effect that a number of Canadians are leaving, or con- template leaving Canada, because they are dissatisfied with Canadian democracy and prefer the “Com- munist regime or the USSR,” has no connection whatscever with the New Soviet Citizens. Lhe prime concern of all Rus- Sian-Canadian workers intending to return to the Seviet Union is to aid in rebuilding the devastated areas of their original homeland, and so to become ambassadors of the goodwill between the Canad- ian and Soviet people which is So important to the future of both: We believe that the person or persons who inserted the ad- vertisement are neither “friends of the Soviet Union” nor good Ca- nadians, because they seek to poison friendly relations with Such advertisemnts. — GREETINGS to Pacific Tribune QS idee 545 DR.
