MONTREAL (CP) -- Like a massive jigsaw puzzle, the bits and pieces are beginning to fall in place in a new blueprint for labor peace in the turbulent Great Lakes shipping industry. Labor sources see an over-all plan taking shape to clean up lawlessness and corruption ex- posed by a government inquiry in the Seafarers' International Union of Canada. But the plan has so many in- terlocking pieces it could be knocked for a loop--upsetting relations betw Canada een the United States and straining the unity of North America la- bor. The marine union 'trustees, appointed by the federal govern- ment last October to wield a new broom in the SIU, say they need time and the co-operation of organized labor to put their long-range program into effect. Despite an undercurrent of strong criticism in Parliament and within labor ranks, the Ca- nadian labor Congress will stand behind the trustees at its major convention this week, sources say. Behind-the-scenes attempts to mobilize convention opposition to the trustees because of their peace plan with Paul Hall, SIU boss in the United States, are reported to be hitting a brick wall, HOUSECLEANING STARTED A source close to the trustees says the SIU housecleaning pro- gram is well under way. It includes an overhaul of the union constitution, provision of machinery for guaranteeing free and unfettered elections for union officers and for demo- cratic control of union policy by the members. But it extends beyond this to cover government action in the legislative field, Changes are in the vorkes involving Federal vide government supervision in areas where the rights of ma- rine workers had been abused in the past by the SIU. At the same time, the trus- tees hope that they will be able fo set the stage for eventual reconciliaion between the SIU Orono Heather Rebekah Lodge Stages Meet By MRS.

The success of this plan de- pends ultimately on whether the seamen's union--likely to be the SIU--~is accepted by organ- ized labor as a democratic, hon- est and free organization. and|WON'T MAKE FORECAST Claude Jodoin, president of the CLC, said Sunday he is un- able to predict whether the out- cast SIU will be allowed back into the CLC in the next two years, He told a press conference on the eve of the opening of the CLC convention that it would take a crystal ball to say whether the SIU will apply for affiliation in the next 24 months, The top leaders of the Con- gress warned today that democ- racy cannot be achieved in the SIU until the present officers ate ousted. The unequivocal statement is contained in the report of the 21- member CLC executive council, prepared for submission to the CLC convention. Mr. Jodoin said in an inter- view that the statement stands as Congress policy--although it was written before the govern- ment's marine union trustees deposed SIU president Hai C, Banks. OTHERS MUST GO He made it clear the CLC feels other SIU officials -- all aides of Mr. Banks--must also be removed from the union leadership before democratic control is guaranteed for SIU members But he left the precise timing for their departure undeter- mined, apparently leaving the ¢ cision on when and how it happens to the threeanan board of marine trustees or even to the SIU membership in some fu- ture elections, A further report, covering re- cent developments on the water- front, including the pact with Mr. Halil, is being prepared for the delegates. The position is-that the full powers of the trustees should be invoked to restore democratic sélf-government to the member- ship of the SIU.
