On the other hand, the ‘union organizers, in askâ€" ing that dues be collected from them in this way, lose much of their own incentive to work for the welfare of their members. Why bother to please the members, when they have to pay their dues whether they like â€"the organization or not? *\ is our ‘own opinion it is*not: wellâ€"informed one. ‘There are plenty of thingb we don‘t know about union organization.

Yiddish Scientific Institute. Charlie, who became known to the Timmins public through his newsâ€" paper work for The Daily Press, is now Canadian representative of: the Yiddish â€" Scientific Instituteâ€"YIVO, New York. â€" He arrived here over the last weekâ€" end to conduct an institute memberâ€" ship campaign here.

He The municipal council of New Liskeard is to be congratulated on the leadership exhibited in its recent move to employ an official director for the towr.‘s sport activities, on a fullâ€"time, yearâ€"round basis. The candidate for the job is Jack Dyte, Barrle athlete and exâ€"member of the Buffalo professional hockey team.* We find it a matter of satisfaction, therefore, in being able to read the record of parliamentary debate in Hansard, page 2439, and find the reassuring authority of so outstanding a defendant of labor as Clarence Gillis, M.P. In discussing union security, Mr. Gillis states: _*"*Many people talk very loosely about Union Security. All the collectivée sescurity that I want is a collective bargaining act in the province in which you are attemptnng to establish Union Security. Second, if a majority of workers are safisfied with a certain Union, the collective bargaining machinery in the province should make it mandatory that there be a revocable checkâ€"off set up. I do not want: to harness anyone in an organization without the of backing out if he so desires. If a Union has a checkâ€"off on :a voluntary basis, where the member places his card in the office with the right to pull out that card if he so desires, that is all the union security that I think is necessary. If an organization set up for the purpose of bargaining collectively with the employer justifies its existence, if it is doing the kind of job it.should do for its membership, it should have no fear of its membership leaving the organization. That is not too much to ask. I think that is all the machinery that is necessary. In other words, the learned Justice points out that his solution to the checkâ€"off problem at the Ford plant might not be the proper solution in other labor disputes â€"â€" might in fact lessen the value of the union involved. sir His appointment is subject to approval of the Ontario Departâ€" ment of Education, it is stated, so it is apparent that New Liskeard intends to operate on the same plan as that suggested by the Timâ€" mins Youth Welfare Council, whereby the provincial governâ€" ments makes a grant of oneâ€"third of the director‘s salary and aids in the linancing of certain of his expenses. The plan gives to followers of all sports an assurance that facilities for their favorite form of recreation will be fully deâ€" veloped and organized on a permanent basis. It gives the comâ€" munity a planned, yearâ€"round program of recreational activity which cannot help but bring forth a wider, keener interest in sport. Consequently we have viewed with some misgiving the attempt by some labor unions to institute, under the plea of "union security" a system of "irrevocable checkâ€"off" whereby a member had his G@nion dues deducted from his pay, without having the chance to say or do much about it. Such a plan was proposed under what has come to be known as the "Rand Formula," â€"â€" an opinion handed down by Mrs. Justice Rand in the case of the Ford strike. "I should perhaps add that I do not for a moment suggest that this is a device of general applicability. It‘s object is primarily to defeat that object by lessening the necessity for selfâ€"development. enable the Urisr:=to function properly. In other cases it might In dealing with each labor situation we must pay regard to its special features and circumstances." Knowing how lax we all can be in the mailter of paying such flgngp as dues andstaxes, we can sympathize with the union organizâ€" ers‘ desire for a plan that would ensure prompt collection of union dues without effort on their part. In attempting to make payment of dves a compulsory matter, however, they are treading on dangerâ€" ous. ground. . Other zzspects of the situation in New Liskeard parallel the work done here. A committee has been established which is comprised of members of the service clubs, the Canadian Legion and the management of the local arena. Grants are being made by the various organizations represented, so it would appear that only a portion, if any, of the director‘s salary will come directly from the taxpayers pockets. / Some comfort, however, may be found in a fuller reading of Mr. Justice Rand‘sâ€"statement in the matter. This, it will be discovered, includes the following: Canada still being what it is we have always assumed that a member of any group or organization had considerable freedom of choice in either joining it or noi, or, having once joined, of withâ€" drawing from it when it no longer suited him.

"Jews must equip themselves with knowledge about themselves before other nationalities can be expected to understand and appreciate the worth of the Jew," Charlie stated. "Actually, the Jew is no better, no worse than any of his fellows. Those who think he is superior in any way don‘t know the true facts." ‘ the fact that we are all made of the same stuff, we would have greater security in the world," he said. ‘"We all agree that all men are created equal, yet people are such that they continue\ nursing prejudices founded only on ignorance and delusions."

Divorce was much rarer in the good old days, John Angus felt. Nowaâ€" days, he pointed out, more than one out of seven marriages in the U. S. ended in divorce.
