Mr. Kay said in an interview the 12,000-member' union does not enter into "something like this" and then back off. "we're going through with it,' he said, He added that most of the mail dispatchers and postal clerks who make up the union membership would honor the strike call. Mr. Kay, from Vancouver, said he was particularly disap- pointed. that the union's Van- couver local had decided to stay on the job. He hoped these and other opposed locals would reconsider, picket lines around post offices across the country when the one-day stoppage starts at 12:01 a.m. EDT Friday. Although letter carriers are in a separate union, it was thought they would not cross CUPW picket lines. Mr. Kay said the strike is to prevent a recurrence of the fed- eral government's decision that deprived 2,500 postal workers of a one-day holiday. The affected postal workers had a regular day off July 3, a day set aside as a holiday for most civil servants because Dominion Day fell on a Satur- day, July 1. Postal workers and other civil servants who had July 3 off as a matter of course got no compensating time off or over- time pay. in touch with the government recently and so had no idea of how they would react to the walkout. The government had made it clear earlier there was no com- mitment to give the additional day off to employees who had a regular day off July 3. Both sides awaited the deci- sion of the board that adminis- ters the Public Service Staff Relations Act on the legality of the strike. The federal treas- ury board asked the staff rela- tions board to declare it illegal. Meanwhile Mr. Kay says it appears to be illegal, but the board must decide that. Under the act, the govern- ment can impose fines on strik- ers, union officers and the union for an illegal strike. \ ? NIAGARA FALLS, Ont. (CP) --The 34 post office workers in Niagara Falls will not join in a one-day walkout called for Fri- day by their national union, a local union official said today. The 12,000-member Canadian Union of Postal Workers is pro- testing that some 2,500 men missed out on the Dominion Day holiday because Monday, July 8, was their regular day off. J. Walker Thomas, secretary of the Niagara Falls local, said the membership voted to work Friday. He said the men, some of whom lost a day because of the Dominion Day holiday, did not want to lose another day because of a walkout Most of the Eastern Canada locals will observe the CUPW call for the 24-hour walkout, , be reduced to one-to-three; that 'city police be prohibited from a a = -- as Se ss All-fires are under control. section be ' to Intruder jets, North Vietnamese capital.
