Maritime Commission Moves in -- Policy An- nouncement Shortly Washington, Oct. 2.--(AP)--The Maritime Commission moved in on the United States shipping strike today and there was a sudden up- turn of optimism for an early set- tlemen t The Commission had not yet made a lic announcement of its attie tude, But AFL. and CIO. union leaders said a statement of the Commission's policy was circulated : |by a negotiating session late last night," Government officials who asked not to be identified said the same thing. Assurance The union men told reporters that the Commission gave assurance it would enforce on all government- owned vessels any changes in work- ing conditions agreed upon by East coast shipowners and the two uni- ons which represent captains, mates and engine-room officers. The main stumbling block in the dispute has been the refusal of Pa- cific Coast shipowners to go as far as the eastern companies in meet- ing demands for more "union secu- rity." Negotiate Today More negotiations were set for today at the Labor Department be- tween the shipowners and the OI. O. marine engineers and the AFL. masters, mates and pilots--the two seafaring unions involved in the country-wide walkout 'which began yesterday. . Union leaders sald that since the Maritime Commission owns a large segment of Pacific shipping, it has the power to set standards which would be followed--by force of ec- oncemic necessity--not only in gove ernment vessels but in private op- erations as well, This has been sharply questioned by representatives of the Pacific shipowners. ©.10. longshoremen, striking on the west coast, were reported to be near agreement with their ¢7 ploy. ers at San Franscisco, "Security" Issue "Union security' has been the | major issue in the dispute raging here. Other issues, such as wages, were gradually being cleared away in the day-and-night talks, "Union security" means such pro- visions as the c osed shop, main- tenance of membership, or other arrangements enabling a union to stay in a strong position. The two seafaring unions deman- ded the following three things on all coasts: Preferential hiring--Union men would get priority. Maintenance of membership -- Men who join the union must stay in it or lose their jobs. Union hiring halls--The Unions would furnish men for al] vacancies in the order in which the men be- come available for work. (This usu- ally amounts to a closed shop, where all workers must belong to the union), U.S. Shipping Picture Takes Brighter Turn 'KIWANIS CLUBS OF EAST YORK-OSHAWA AT JOINT MEETING On the occasion of an Iater-Club Kiwanis meeting, staged last night by the Oshawa Club at the Hotel Genosha, 53 Kiwanians of the East York Club, under the leadership of President Harold Donaldson, visited here last night and enjoyed a fine program featuring entertainment and humor. Guest of "dishonor" for the eve- ning was the popular "Wally" Stewart, Kiwanis Lieut.-Governor for this Division and Governor- elect for the Ontario-Quebec-Mari- time District, for 1047, as the result of the elections at the annual con- vention, held early last month, at St. Andrew's - by - the - Sea, New Brunswick. One of the largest two-club meet- ings ever held here, the affair was a roaring success, with most of the roaring coming during a clever skit presented by a group of Oshawa club members. ' Culprit Found Guilty ° Charged with a series of indict- able offences and several others too serious and complicated to be in- cluded in The Criminal Code, Ki- wanian Walter Stewart was placed under arrest and placed in the risoner's dock by a uniformed pol- ce officer, Kiwanian Harry John- ston, 2 Kiwanian "Bob" Smith, in efficl- ent and impressive manner, ful- filled the dignified duties of "Your Lordship", with Kiwanian Russ. Humphreys and Kiwanian Neil Fraser, both barristers in private life, giving the case an air of reality with their roles as Crown Attorney and Defense Counsel respectively. Kiwanian Reg. Gibson, a delegate for the Oshawa Club, to the Ki- wanis District convention in Sep- tember, was chief witness for the Crown, testifying as to the crimes, conduct and conniving of the cul- prit, as practised at the Convention. Kiwanian Bryce Brown as "Dr, Oppenheimer", gave the medical evidence necessary to provide the defense with undeniable proof to support a plea of insanity. With the Crown proving the de- fendent guilty of the charges and the Defense Counsel proving just as conclusively that his client was mentally irresponsible, there was nothing left for "His Lordship" to do but announce him guilty and pass a stiff sentence, which he did ~"one year in the stock". Specially constructed "ye olden tymes" criminal stocks were produc- ed and Kiwanian Walter Stewart was placed in them--and a picture taken, for posterity and as a future "check-rein". Getting in Earl With every member of the cast playing his part to perfection, the mock trial was an uproarious suc- cess and the Kiwahians were in fits of laughter throughout, at the antics of the "players" as well as the spec- fally selected language and phrases. At the conclusion of the skit, Chairman and President Cyril S8ouch of -the Oshawa Kiwanis Club, pointed "out to Lieut.-Governor Walter Stewart that such liberties could only be taken while he was Governor-elect and that in 1947, while fulfilling his office duties as Kiwanis District Governor, the Osh- awa Club would lead in treating their Governor with the dignity and respect due his position and Pres. Cyril also pledged to Walter the enthusiastic and whole-hearted support and co-operation of the Oshawa Kiwanians. Other Entertainment Kiwanian Percy Muir of the East York Club, conducted a "public speakers' contest" with threg Ki- wanians from Oshawa, "Al" Sim- ester, Ted Johnson and "Shorty" Reynolds as contestants. "Shorty" Reynolds was acclaimed the winner and when crowned as best speaker, was presented with a necktie that will speak for itself, but loudly, on any occasion. Kiwanian Albert Hircock, popu- lar basso-profundo (rom the Co- bourg Olub, together with Kiwanian Lyle Willson, of Cobourg, formerly of Oshawa, attended as special ts and Kiwanian Albert de- ghted the meeting with three of his inimitable solo renditions, in- cluding "Asleep In The Deep." Dave Jenkins acted as pianist for the solo numbers and during the lusty sing- song. - Kiwanian Dave Jamieson, vice president, introduced the head table array and official figures revealed that the visiting East York Club had 53 members present as against only 51 Oshawa Kiwanians, Kiwanian Don, Storie, Karnival- chairman, announced that this year's carnival had been the most successful yet, as far as the two nights at the Oshawa Arena are concerned, grossing $7,000.00 for the two night, despite ihe necessary omission this year of the huge draws on am automcbile and hope chest, Kiwanjans Len Hastings of East York and "Bob" Smith of Oshawa were the winners of the attendance prizes. It was announced that Hon. G. D. Conant, KG., will be the special guest speaker at next week's Osha-~ wa Club meeting, an observance of "Nationial Press Appreciation Week." . Receives Certificate In his last official duty as Lieut.- QGovernor of this Division, Kiwanian Walter Stewart presented paste President Ted Johnson of the Osh- awa Club with a certificate of re- cognition, from Kiwanis Interna- tional, in tribute to his leadership as President of the Oshawa Club in 1045. In accepting the honor, Ki- wanian Ted again voiced his thanks to his club members, to whom he gave all credit for the success at- tained in his year of office. In closing, President Harold Don- aldson of the East York Club, ex- pressed the thanks and appreciation of his fellow-members to the Osh- awa Club, stressing the fellowship and inter-club brotherly feeling which has always predominated in the activities of East York and Oshawa Kiwanians. .
