2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thursday, March 8, 1962 GOOD EVENING By JACK GEARIN NDP SEEKS MILLARD AS CANDIDATE Charles H. Millard is in the news again. The former Oshawa cabinet maker who has held some of the highest posts in the Labor world (international and Canadian) is seriously toying with the idea of returning to politics, one of his old loves. He has been Invited "'un- animously'"' by the executive of the York-Humber New Democratic Party to repre- sent the NDP in the next Federal election. The 65-year-old former na- tional director for Canada of the United Steelworkers of America has been a trade unionist for almost 30 years. f : 5 FORT WILLA 'Seek Troop Use In B.C.

He took part in the or- ganization of the jobless in Oshawa district during the 1930 depression years. He was president of the Oshawa Unem- ployed Association, finally got a job in the Body Shop of GM. Millard was elected the first president of the CIO Auto- mobile Workers Local in Oshawa and took part in the 1937 GM plant strike (which resulted in recognition for the new CIO industrial union movement.) Philip Murray appointed him in 1940 to take over the direction of the Canadian section of the Steel Workers or- ganizing. The SWOC had fewer than 5,000 active members in the Canadian section of the union when he took over. Today there are more than 75,000 members in more than 300 local throughout all provinces. Although his work in trade unionism has taken up most of his time, Mr. Milllard has continued to be an active member of the United Church of Canada. Will he accept the nomination?

The charges are the latest in a series by the RCMP investi- | gating the sale of meat unfit for human consumption in Ontario. Fourteen men were arrested in simultaneous raids in Janu- ary this year after police posed as buyers of dead and fallen animals.

"y % ' | : : 3 oi THREE "MISSING" PAGES IRK LOCAL 222 BRASS The "missing" three pages from the 1961 annual report of the Oshawa Industrial Commission containing the OIC's financial report -- are no longer "missing"'. After much prodding from outside sources, the OIC. has made them available at City Hall (at long last!), but the pages continue to kick up quite a tempest. The executive board of Local 222, UAW-CLC (in a letter to the City) had added its influential voice of protest, has even protested 'vigorously' -- it feels that a civic body that spends a large amount of the taxpayers, money should give a full accounting of how such money was speni. Mayor Thomas is to be commended on one point -- she endeavored Monday to take full responsibility for the dele- tion (i. e., she felt that this information did not belong in a report), but this explanation is hardly adequate, will do little to éase the qualms of those taxpayers who fear that other City Hall reports may be deleted, or have been deleted. The other members of the OIC must, of course, share equal responsibility with Her Worship for this important de- letion. They are not school boys. They know the importance of such acts. The Local 222 letter reflects the feelings of many tax- payers. It shows that people do care about such matters. The three pages are now available -- would they be available if strong. protests were not made in certain quar- ters? TODAY'S BEST MILK BUY ..
