a --_--_§_iel ii b H 1 'R THE GSHAWA TIMES, Wednesday, June 1, 1960 GOOD EVENING --- By JACK GEARIN --- A KEY FIGURE IN UAW TRUCE : Canadian UAW Director George Burt says Cliff Pilkey, ex-president of Local 222, is "the finest fancy skater in Oshawa outside of Don Jackson" in terms that are anything but laudatory, 5 7 % Mr. Pilkey is suppos- "ed to be after Mr. Burt's job; whether he is or not, Mr. Burt was referring to Mr. Pilkey's consummate skill in manoeuvering suc- cessfully around the turbu- #lent, troubled Canadian ii UAW political world with so many heavy guns train- fed constantly on him, Mr. Pilkey (the daring young man on the Cana- dian UAW trapeze) gave another adroit performance here at last Sunday's mar- athon, four-hour meeting before 800 fellow union- ists; when it was all over, when the name-calling and the heated. controversey had subsided, his prestige was pretty well intact. Fi EMIL MAZEY This doesn't mean that he has won his point or that he is about to take over from Mr. Burt whose term still has two years to go. It means he's still a focal point in a bitter inter-union wrangle that has split the local (even the Canadian UAW world) far apart for too long a period--that he's a key figure to be con- sidered if peace and harmony is to be restored. Sunday's meeting was held to allow for reports on irivestigations of alleged meetings between members of the GM Canadian top negotiation committee of the UAW and leaders of the Communist party in Canada by special committee appointed by the International Ex- ecutive Board of the UAW. Big Daddy, Walter Reuther didn't come to Oshawa for this important social event (which he personally ordered) but he did send his trusted lieutenant, Mr. Emil Mazey, secretary-treasurer of the International UAW, a man who knows his way around the interna- tional trade union world. Mr. Mazey's task was sizeable, in view of the re- cent stalemate of his inquiry, but he was quite at home in the rough-and-tumble atmosphere and performed well on what must be regarded as a difficult assign- ment. "If you commies down there at the rear of the hall will just keep quiet, I'll give my report on this inquiry" he quipped at one stage when the heckling was a bit loud. This strategy had a magical, soothing effect. Whether or not the meeting was successful depends largely on one's sympathies. President Malcolm Smith and other executice mem- bers of Local 222 refused comment following the meet- ing. Perhaps some of them felt the time was inopportune for such a meeting, and such discussion of a highly controversial subject such as communism within the ranks. Perhaps they are right, but others felt that the meeting was productive of some good results, especial- ly with such a frank exchange of opinion. At least two speakers--Pilkey and Burt--held out distinct possibilities for future co-operation between the warring factions when negotiation time arrives, in 1960 although they qualified them with a few "ifs" and "buts". Mr. Mazey effectively pointed out that Mr, Burt had done a "remarkable job" since 1839 when he was appointed Canadian director and the UAW had only 3,200 paying members in Canada as compared with 60,000 today. Mr. Mazey also pointed out that the Communists in Oshawa put out a paper called, The Spark, whose masthead proclaims "issued by Oshawa auto workers who are members of the Communist party". He added: "This is an attempt to infiltrate and influence the programs and politcies of the union. In Canada the Communist party is legal. But I don't consider it legit- imate. It is merely a satellite of the Soviet Union, It follows the twists and turns of the policy of the Soviet Union." Mr. Mazey also repeated much that was in the original committee report, while informing Local 222 members that they have not the power to reject the report of the union committee in the Communist issue Some pertinent questions are being asked: [lost $25,000 in cancelled shows. |F Mrs. Jacques Martin makes | Mount Royal Hotel.

Would the International, in the best interests of a desperately needed peace, be willing to sit down at the peace table with Mr. Pilkey? Both sides would have to make concessions, just like/they do at UN. Mr, Pilkey is no Communist, but he would have to shake off some members of his inner eourt circle whose political tinge could never be accept- able at Detroit headquarters; and the International would have to reward him with some important pos- ition in keeping with his special talents (Said one union- ist Sunday: "Cliff wants to be Canada's 'Little Reuther' and drive around in a Cadillac just like Walter. there's no doubt about it." Perhaps such suggestions will be scoffed at by both sides, but the hour is fast approaching for some kind of a peace truce in the troubled Canadian UAW world.

And at another point in his {SEATO council speech he adds: |"It is important that the fruits should appear while there is still time to taste them." Vice - President Nixon, speak- ing for the U.S. government rec- ognizes this need: ". . . we must wage a war on poverty, misery and disease wherever they exist because they are evils in them- selves. As we succeed in this grand endeavor, the evil seeds of communism will find no soil in which to grow." Nixon appears to be echoing Eisenhower's thoughts that the world is living in a "revolution of expectations." Those struggling against starvation want a better way of life.
