soon it may all be over but for the formalities by the time you read this the average person likely feels varying degrees of bitterness or tup port for striking postal workers de pending on the frequency with which he uses the mall however if the truth were known the average joe would likely feel tome compunction about the role of the government and their hired exec utlve in the ttrlke prettrike negotiations were allow ed to drag on and on with no attempt to settle any of the postal workers grievances obviously the pottles got fed up with this type of negotiation and decided to use the weapon which the government gave them last year the right to ttrlke almost instantly the government tide started to make con- one can only hope that the appar ent disregard for the public welfare has tome good reason behind it sug gestions have been advanced that the deliberate slowness in negotiating a contract with the postal workers was another ttep in stopping inflationary trends this is a bit far fetched since many of the grievances are bated on recommendations made by mr justice andre monpetit who was appointed by the government to look into working conditions in the post office following the wildcat ttrike in 1965 according to the globe and mall he issued a scathing report of working conditions with 282 recommendations he laid a large number of the prob lems at the door of poor human relat- ions too many postmasters and super visors he said thought themselves in fallible employee representatives were rebelling to the point- that they were alarmingly unwilling to compromise one weekly editor nearby has ob served if the canadian government had been serving the country best interests following the previous strike i96s of postal workors it would have passed legislation forcing com pulsory arbitration and living up to the self imposed obligation instead of ad opting legislation legalizing civil ser vants to go out on strike it has also been suggested that de mands might not have boon so great if the government had shown an inter est in negotiating with tho postal un ion on the other hand there are those who fed up with the increasing num ber of strikes across tho country con damn tho strike as irresponsible and striking at tho rights of tho innocent canadian public the prima minister however does not agree his stand is that the strike is legal although incon venient aside from working conditions the main bono of contention is wages working conditions across tho country should be similar but there is a region al disparity of wages which makes a postal workers salary look mlghtly at tractive in tho mantimes and less than adequate in largo cities like toronto montreal or vancouver subsisting in some of the larger centres on their sal ary where it could take two weeks money for rant would bo difficult in deed tho strike is a complex problem not easily solved by hot hoads on either side of tho dispute lets hope it is over or toon over and face saving for both sides the post office department was commended by tho glassco report on government operations for its effic iency a fact which shows that when thore is cooperation from both sides the service is good fl pkctta frw the paat hiat wavis are right for drlfllno down a lay stream in a rnwlmut wllli nh lllll nil wl it 11 ill us i lint rlianrn a iily so sugar and spice 1 1 m
