William Mahoney, Canadian director of the union, and Larry Sefton, director of District 6, extending from Ontario to Brit- ish Columbia, urged the Cana- dian Labor congress and the Ontario Federation of Labor to hold a conference of union lead- ers to exert pressure on the government for such legislation. They said in a statement that conviction of 26 labor leaders for contempt of court in connec- tion with mass picketing at Tilco Plastics Ltd., Peter- borough, while members of the United Textile Workers of America (CLC) were on strike, weakens labor's power to make strikes effective.

The latest additions to the list of protests about the contract dispute, which has resulted in almost complete tie-ups in the ports of Montreal, Quebec and Trois-Rivieres, came from of- ficials of the 1967 Montreal world's fair and the Quebec Council of Pulp and Paper Pro- ducers. Further pressure for direct federal government intervention came in the Commons Wednes- day. Prime Minister Pearson said the government would not interfere pending the outcome of meetings which he said were to be held in Montreal, However, a spokesman for the International Longshore- men's Association said Wednes- day night no meetings with the pping Federation of Canada were being held and none were planned, The prime mirister told the Commons the meetings were being held Wednesday afternoon Buddhists Against Cong Peace Talks marines) meetings when asked by New smashed-the Da-Nang-revelt-in| Democratic..Leader..

The longshoremen are seeking an hourly wage increase of 48 cents retroactive to last Jan- uary 1 and a further increase of 40 cents starting in January, 1967. They have also demanded that there be no reduction in the size of their work gangs over the two-year contract period. Picket lines, limited tc token numbers by court injuné¢tions, continue to be present on all three affected waterfronts. In Quebec, coal and grain handlers have been allowed to cross the picket lines to alleviate serious shortages in those commodities in the Quebec area, Paul Lachance, president of the Quebec Council of Pulp and Paper Producers, said produc- tion will diminish appreciably within the next week if the strike is not settled. He said some of the producers had been shipping through Port Alfred on the Saguenay River.
