government was criticised from the floor.

James Auld, President Burrard Conservative Association, came in for a rough ride from the as- sembled meeting, when some lis- teners, during the question period recalled “Section 98” and the good old days of the “Bennett Slave Camps.”

CONCERT RALLY

Jimmy Thompson spope again |

on Sunday at a giant political- eoneert rally held in Boilermak- ers Hall. He stressed the impor- tance of labor’s partnership in the next government, and: indi- cated that labor’s representation should be by the tried and true leaders of labor, and/not by those who sit in opposition to all of labor‘s wants and sneer.

“There were people,’ Thomp-

son continued, “who would have rather seen Germany win the. ‘victory than raise their voices “against reaction in our govern- ment. These quisling groups are _ again raising their voices and de- manding 2 voice.’

Thompson pointed out that the problems of a postwar Canada cannot be solved by a government of reaction. He scored the split- ting tactics of the tories, and pointed to the threat of a tory coalition victory as a threat to the entire future of the country.

“Labor's position,’ Thompson

concluded, ‘is that now is the time when we must place our dif- ferences into the background, and maintain a Canadian unity that kas been forged in this greatest

ot wars.”

Act To Prevent Water Shortage

Determined that there will be nc repetition of last years water shortage, farmers of the Sunny- side area of Surrey Municipality held a meeting in the Sunnyside Hall, attended by Reeve Brown, Gouncillor Franks and Municipal Engineer Claude Harvey.

Protest was voiced over inac- tion of the Council in carrying Gut to a sufficient degree their agreement to further explore the water supply source in the area, ar agreement that was entered into last October when the resi- dents of the area undertook to vaise the money for exploration purposes. aS a preliminary to their application for installation of a water system under a local improvement plan:

Fear was expressed that due to the delay in proceeding with the preliminary work necessary,

that installation of a water sys-

tem could not be completed in time to serve the area in event of

a repetition of last year’s water shortage.

Sunnyside area is a rapidly growing farming section of the Municipaltty and there has been considerable increase in popula tion during the last few years. Dairy. cattle, hogs and poultry farming has developed rapidly in recent years.

Congratulations are extended to Bill Kallin, veteran of the Mackenzie-Papineau, and Helen Fidruchay, member of the Rus- sian-Ganadian Organization, who were married in Vancouver on

May Day. Both are active mem- bers of the Labor-Progressive Party. ;

will-either be forced to withdraw, or will isolate himself from the yoters by a glaring admission of yartisan politics. The feeling against CCE participation has grown so Sharp that many of Cunningham’s fellow union mem- bers are refusing to support him and are throwing their weight behind McEwen’s campaign. Although Dawson Miners Un- ion have endorsed the CCF can- didate, the Yukon Trade Union Co-Ordinating Council has re- fused to endorse any candidate, and has instead sent invitations to all candidates to speak at a mass meeting, called under the sponsorship of the YTUCC€ at the Capitol Theatre, on May 27. The unions in Whitehorse have not yet endorsed any candidate in the campaign, but individual members of the unions are staun- chly supporting McHwen.

It is felt that the campaign in the Yukon will intensify as the date of election draws closer. It is reported that a whispering campaign has been instituted by arti-labor elements, slandering: the labor candidate, but to date the campaign has not met with success among the strongly pro- labor electorate.

An interesting side-light is the fact that the evening of the Con- servative meeting, the walls of
