HER STORY

By JERRY SHACK

The woman sat in the PT office and told her story in a quiet, un- hurried, dignified sort of way, Her name was Mrs, Carol Mor- ton and she had come to the PT, accompanied by Orville Braaten (Business Agent for the Pulp & Paper Workers of Canada) be- cause she had a story to tell and none of the big newspapers seemed to be interested in it,

She had been on the picket line at the struck CIL plant on Anacis Is, on Tuesday, Sept, 29, Although not a member of striking Local 5, she had gone on the line to give the workers a hand and show her sympathy for their cause,

The time was about 3:30 in the afternoon,

A station wagon drove uptothe Picket line and the driver re- quested permission to cross, “I just want to use the phone,” he explained, and the permission was granted,

over and got out of his way,

“He didn’t stop to show his pink card or acknowledge in any way that an ‘accident’ had taken place . . . He just kept on driv- ing.”

She watched as several of the men who had been on the line with her rushed up tothe vehicle, shouting and banging on the doors, But it was all in vain; the driver refused to even turn his head and all they could do was take his license number,

Now, sitting in the PT office the next day, Carol Morton couldn’t bend her body or turn her neck, She showed us several bruises on different parts of her body and stated simply she was going to the doctor,

She and Braaten had already been to see the union’s lawyer and police traffic officers, who had promised to “investigate” the incident but suggested Mrs, Mor- ton had placed herself in an “un-

“When he finished loading,” Mrs, Morton said, “he drove the Station wagon straight at the picket line, Nobody moved, Ashe approached the line he stepped on the gas and drove right at me, He knocked me over and his bumper pushed me for about 25 feet,

We hope they do investigate, But isn’t it about time somebody investigated the huge, foreign owned monopolies which fasten themselves onto the economic body of Canada like lecherous leeches?

Why should Canadian citizens, exercising their traditional dem- ocratic rights to organize, to bargain collectively and to with- hold their labor power when the need arises, have to put up with these bandit-like tactics by mon- ey hungry octopi who figuratively and literally trample underfoot anything and anybody who stands in the way of their insane drive for profits?

Greet China

Greetings on the occasion of the 15th anniversary of the People’s Republic of China (Oct, 1) were sent last week by the Communist Party of Canada to the government and Communist Party of China, In a telegram from its national executive com- mittee, the Canadian party said:

“The Chinese revolution con- stituted a great turning point for the Chinese people and for the cause of peace, national lib- eration and socialism, Imperial- sim is still trying to turn back the clock of history but it can and will be defeated through the firm unity of the socialist states and of the Communist and Work- ers parties on the basis of Marx- ism-Leninism,

“For peace, friendship between our two countries and peoples, For the consolidating of the unity of the world movement,”

Last Thursday a million people
