WEDNESDAY, APRIL 4, 1951 fHE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE PAGE FIVE Burt Re-Election As Canadian Director Of U.A.W.A. Seen Certain Cleveland, April 4--In sharp con- trast to the 1947 Atlantic City convention of the United Auto Workers, when the Canadian sec- tion was split down the middle in a bitter factional fight, Canadian delegates to the UAW convention here are united solidly behind the union administration. Factionalism has almost entirely disappeared in the Canadian sec- tion, and the return of George Burt as Canadian director, without opposition, is assured at tomor- row's elections. The anti-Reuther forces, made up of Communists and those opposed to Reuther for personal reasons, were meeting tonight in an at- tempt to find a common candidate, or candidates they could run against the administration officers. But any opposition will be in- , significant, and the election itself anti-climactic. And with the con- test over, the union will again swing into the business before it, which will include the question of labor's 'role in Truman's Wage Stabilization Board. From the Canadian point of view, one of the most interesting features, politically, is the cordial relations that now exist between Burt and Reuther, and Roy Eng- land, president of Ford Local 200 in Windsor. Just a few years ago, Reuther was backing a campaign to defeat Burt. That was in 1947 when Reu- ther was not to eliminate the opposition of the executive board, an opposition described politically as left-wing. England was in Burt's camp, and both of them in bitter opposition to Reuther. Burt survived the attempt to cut him down--by a slim eight votes. The cleavage in the Canadian section continued for a while, but gradually Burt moved into the Reuther camp, and Eng- land, perhaps a little more reluc- tant, followed. . Today, England is chairman of the Convention's constitutional committee. In his recent fight for re-election against extreme right- wing opposition in his local, Eng- land had Reuther's support, in- direct as it was. Burt, whose long stay in the left- wing camp won him no friends in the right-wing of the Canadian labor movement, is a skilful career unionist, Today, he is solidly en- trenched in the anti-Communist camp and the object of Communist abuse and invective. There is no opposition to Burt in sight, and his leadership to the 60,000-member Canadian section is undisputéd, and probably will be for years to come. He is a skilful negotiator who knows when to press a point and when to compromise. Even those in the Canadign labor movement who are some- what scornful of Burt, will admit he has done a good job for his union, The record of the Canadian sec- tion won the praise of the UAW administration in a report to the delegates today. Noted too, was the fact that the Canadian head- quarters of the union will move in- to a new $75,000 UAW-owned build- ing in Windsor in a few weeks, New British Ford Scheduled for U.S. Detroit, April 4--(AP)--The Ford Motor Co., announced yesterday the new British-built Consul model will be brought to the United States in limited numbers within the next few months. It has a 100-inch wheelbase, has an over-all length of 162 inches, is 64 inches wide and 61 inches high. It is being produced as a five-passenger, four-door sedan and probably will "retail in the 31700-3180 range at port of en- ry." REDUCE FREIGHT RATES Washington, April 4--(AP)--The Interstate Commerce Commission announced yesterday it will permit the Canadian Pacific Railroad to cut its freight rates on shipments of Canadian potatoes into the New England area. The reductions, ranging from 12 to 16 cents for 100 pounds may be made on April 14. MASONITE J ERNIE CAY LUMBER $3 ALBERT ST. PHONE 127 JAMIESON DRUGS PROMPT DELIVERY! 241 KING ST.

Hydro Plans For Increase In Capacity Toronto, April 4--(CP)--Expan- sion plans of the Ontario Hydro- Electric Power Commission will provide the province in 1952 with a power capacity 80 per cent high- ed than in 1945, G. E. Challies, vice-chairman of the commission, told the Legislature last night. Reporting on progress + of the commission, Mr. Challies said the $816,000,000 program has increased the hydro system's capacity from 2,600,000 horse power after the sec- ond world war to 3,700,00 horse power at the end of 195. Plans called for 4,700,000 horse power by the end of 1952. Total assets of the provincial and municipal power commissions total $1,243,000,000. The Ontario Commission emplays 20,024 persons, the minister said in his report to the legislature during its budget debate. Addition of new generating sour- ces, however, had not allowed the commission to build up a power reserve because of an "unprece- dented" demand. Mr. Challies spoke of opposition in the United States Senate to hydro development of the St. Law- rence River's potential 2,200,000 horsepower, Governments of On- tario, Canada and New York State were solidly behind the effort to harness the river.

Glowing Story (Continued from Page 3) themselves in a position where they car compete in commerce and in- dustry with the white men, as an equal. The speaker explained how the natives and colored people, when finally admitted to universities to receive training as engineers, etc. they were not permitted to compete in sports with the white students. But the results was that. entire native or colored teams sprang into being, all determined to prove they were equal or superior to their white opponents and 'in many cases they '| have succeeded in doing just this. Lost Respect For White Race Telling how the natives have been detribalized, taken from their various native villages to be assemb- led as one communal group, for the purpose of working in_ the gold mines or diamond mines, where they lose even their own native identity, the speaker pointed out | colored | that these natives and people have seen the way the white man lives in many cases. They have seen underneath the veneer which is all that is present in many cases and as a result, they have lost respect for the white man's cul- ture, they do not want to be like the white man. They prefer their own moral standards in many cases. ASPIRIN: si iii | sun OLS FEEL BETTER FAST! In conclusion; Rev. R. D. Wigh- ton declared, "the native life of South Africa is rising and demand- ing that they be held equal with us. There is only one solution to this segregation problem and that is Christ, Himself.
