20 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Fridey, November 20, 1964 _- CNR President Gordon Raps New Labor Code DON HANRIGHT OTTAWA (CP)--CNR Presi- dent Donald Gordon has sharply criticized the new fed- eral labor code, still before Par- Hiament. , He said that in many ways the bill "'seems to produce some utterly impractical situations between employees and man- agement." Mr, Gordon's remarks were made last week in a closed la- bor . management conference sponsored by the Economic Council of Canada. The council shortly will pub- lish speeches at the conference, along with a series of research reports on labor - management relations in Europe, the United States and Canada. The head of the Crown-owned CNR was commenting in the conference on one of these re- search reports when he di- verted from his main theme, to say in part: "The labor standards code in- corporated in Bill 126 now be- Police Chief Supported PORT ELGIN, Ont. (CP)--A petition signed by 600 Port El- gin residents has been sub- mitted to the Ontario Police Commission asking that Chief Const. Charles Riley--only re- maining member of the town's three-man police force--be kept on his job pending a commis- sion hearing next month. Chief Riley's dismissal by town council was to be effective Thursday. DONALD GORDON . » « Sharp Criticism fore the House of Commons is an instrument of social policy, with the apparent aim of creat- ing more jobs and raising living standards, but it cuts deep into the scope of collective bargain- ing and has significant effect von the cost structure of labor- intensive industries.

"This I believe to be wrong." The federal bill would apply to all labor areas under federal jurisdiction, including railways. Its key provisions: A mini- mum wage rate of $1.25 an hour; a standard eight-hour day and 40-hour week, with time and a half for overtime; eight general holidays with pay, and two weeks annual vacation with pay after every complete year of employment. TORONTO (CP) -- The pro- posed federal labor code is an attempt to establish minimum standards rather than improve the working conditions of the majority, Labor Minister Mac-|* Eachen said Thursday. He said the bill was designed to fill a gap between provincial and federal labor legislation and to build a sound economic base for all Canadians. He told the West Toronto Ki- wanis Club the legislation will affect about 380,000 persons. ee ae, the _Hampshire Avon fishingjroach.

"We have to find out where we stand," was the only com- ment Mr. Dickie would make prior to the resumption of talks Thursday. He also declined to comment on the Hamilton talks. The local, which has about 7,000 members at the Algoma plant, voted several months ago to strike if necessary. The union's contract with the company expired Aug. 1. The union is asking for a 23.5- cent-an-hour pay increase, dou- ble time for overtime, and a 10-week extended vacation ev- ery five years {yt senior em- ployees. BY STEELWORKERS Walkout Talk Attacked HAMILTON (CP) -- Officials of the United Steelworkers of America (CLC) Thursday at- tacked rumors of a_ possibility of "spontaneous. walkouts" at the Steel Company of Canada as "attempts to sabotage con- tinuing negotiations between Steleo and the steelworkers." The negotiating committee of Local 1005 issued orders for its members to stay on the job. Negotiations for a new work contract for the 10,000 Stelco Hamilton workers represented by the union are being contin- ued by sub-committees of the company and the union, mem- bers were told in a leaflet.

(CP) -- A conciliation board hearing into a contract dispute between the Algoma Steel Cor- poration and Local 2251 of the United Steelworkers of America (CLC) resumed Thursday.

Later, after he was re- instated, he resigned. On Oct, 2, Const. George Taggart was dismissed, leaving only Chief Riley. In each case, council gave dissatisfaction with services as its reason for dismissal. Reubin Gingrich. spokesman for the petition committee, said the police commission was asked to intervene because "we feel the police chief was given a raw deal." Ex-Accountant Found In Jail TORONTO (CP) -- Robert Donald Cummings, 27, a former bank accountant wanted by po- lice here in connection with the disappearance of $18,000 in trav- eliers' cheques from the bank where he was working, is in jail in Sparks, Nev., on a charge of | vagrancy. He has also been charged by FBI agents in Sparks with in- terstate transportation of stolen property. Cummings, who is serving a 30-day jail sentence on the vag- rancy charge, was arrested after the American Express Company traced $6,000 worth of travellers' cheques Cummings had on his person when ar- rested. He had been acting manager at the Bayview-Hillsdale branch of the Bank of Montreal' when he disappeared Sept. 24. FBI agents in Reno, Nev., near Sparks, say they are un- aware of any plans to extradite him to Canada, adding they have not been advised of any warrants issued for his arrest elsewhere. Toronto police issued a war- rant for his arrest when bank inspectors discovered the short- age at the bank branch last month.
