A quietâ€"spoken, gentle man, Mr. Millard describes himself as an some theories on unions and labor that might not fall in lime with much of the public‘s image of a in the hungry thirties when jobs were hard to get, and even harder to keep. Seasonal unemployment in his company lasted from July to December, if you were reâ€"hired you had to ask for an advance to buy Christmas presents for your family, With an obvious deep, and sinâ€" cere, religious faith which he had already directed to many Church activities such as his Tuxis group, Mr, Millard saw in trade unions an opportunity to put his Christian beliefs to a practical application. In unions he saw an opportunity to guard against deâ€" pression conditions and to guarâ€" antee to individuals their rights for human dignity. While an employee of a large automobile manufacturer, he acâ€" eomplished the organization of one of the first Canadian trade unions after several previous attemnts to At that time, some 2500 customâ€" ers located in the northern section of the present Weston (CHerry) exchange will receive new teleâ€" phone numbers in line with the new all number calling system. ‘The new numbers will consist of Installation of complex dial teleâ€" phone switching equipment is now nearing completion in the Bell ‘Telephone Company‘s new â€" exâ€" change building in Thistletown, M.A. Sloski, local Bell manager said this week.

On behalf of some sixty million organized aworkers in the free world, his duties were trifold: to strengthen trade unions, to estabâ€" lish new trade unions where none existed, and to combat totalitarâ€" fanism. colleges in Calcutts and Uganda. The building of these institutions cost the trade union movement over a quarter of a million dollars each and they spend nearly the same amount each year to mainâ€" tain the college.

His work IDVTU carried him twice around the world â€"â€" to Africa to settle the rail strike in Tanganyika, to Japâ€" an to train the Japanese in trade unions which had been given them by ‘their postâ€"war American o¢â€" cupation forces, In South Afrien.i white trade union men helped colâ€" oured workers establish unions and joined with them in Labour‘s obâ€" jection to apartheid. In Spanish America, Mr. Millard worked with people he describes as ‘hungry for \democratic institutions but in dire Now in official retirement, he still needs his rightâ€"hand woman, Mrs. Millard to keep track of his engagements. He is active as a Speaker, an educator at Union conferences and feels a responâ€" sibility for interpreting the rest of the world to trade unionism in Canada. ? A combination of church and union interests took him to the World Conference of Churches in Thessalonika last year and this continuing hope of getting more church and union people interested in each other and each other‘s beâ€" liefs is put into practice by his activity on the Religion and Labâ€" our Council.

It seeks factual investiâ€" gation of disagreements with the hope of aiding in mediation. meed of democratic education‘.
