2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Soturdey, Mey 14, 1960 GOOD EVENIN By JACK GEARIN D EVENING ECHOES FROM THE PAUL SIREN CASE 2 ) When the recent re- port of the International UAW's committee on the Paul Siren case got out into the full light of day this week, there were some loud shrieks of protest. Vociferous anti-Reuth- erites in Local 222 (always alert to the least creak in the enemy's armor) ex- * ploited it to the full and © quickly used it for a double-~barrel blast at the International, At? two closed (and angry) Oshawa meetings this week of the Local 222 membership (with a total of more than 500 on hand) 7 a motion was passed con- WALTER REUTHER deming the report. The committee investigated charges that union officers dis- cussed policy with Communist officials during the UAW's 148-day strike against GM in 1955-56, The committee's report: Stood firm on a previous UAW ouster of Paul Siren, recently discharged as Toronto area direc~ tor of the UAW. Staunchly upheld in no uncertain terms the testimony of Nelson Wilson, who sparked the probe originally by stating he had personally attended meetings during the GM strike at which known Communists were present and participated. Wilson also mentioned the names of a number of committeemen from GM plants, who were then serving on, or closely connected with the top UAW bargaining committee engaged in negotiations with GM. The com- mitteemen named denied these charges. The report points out in part: "it is the feeling of the committee and the International Executive Board that mo action should be taken or publicity given to charges of this nature against individual members on the sole basis of testimony of one individual, however convincing and credible that testimony may be (and, as noted, the committee considers Wilson's testimony to be most convincing and credible)".

After travelling thousands of miles across Canada, to Baffin Island and northern B.C, I can honestly say one thing about Oshawa--it still has the worst roads in the entire country."

Mayor Gifford, on behalf of the city, has extended a welcome to all delegates and the special hosts for the occasion will be the local band. The event will be held in Memorial Park and' the Armories.
