"Pat Sullivan saw fit to sell out the Communists and Labor," Mr. Magnusâ€" son continued, and read some excerpts from Sullivan‘s letter to the Canadian Seaman‘s Union which Sullivan had founded in 1935. The excerpts advised the seamen to resigxn from the union, not to be dupes for the Communists. Then the speaker went on to state how the viceâ€"president of the C.S.U. had been offered $100,000 by the steamâ€" ship companies to drop out of the Union "The questions we should ask ourâ€" selves are: first, whether or not workâ€" ing. people are getting better off under the present system?

"The working class is in a position where it is being put through a ringer. and if we don‘t stand up for our rights we are apt to find ourselves in a very difficult pozition." Mr. Magnusson quoted from several writers in which one stated that ‘poor people are a blessing to mankind." And agyother by an American business man who said "poverty is a bulwark of liberty. it provides contentment snd tranquillity." that has so many obstacles thrown in "In the early years of capitalist ecâ€" there was n argument that there had to be a poor class of people, of late that has been glossed Oover." "The wealthy classes are becoming more selfâ€"conscious of the conditions they have created," the speaker conâ€" tinued, "and things are getting more difficult and the going more tougsher for us. qQuoting from the Minister of Agriâ€" culture‘s report in which Mr. Gardiner said that 351 million dollars had been paid in food subsidies since 1939. Mr Magnusson asked. "What will happen when the subsidies cease?" Adding that this maney could be picked up in excess profits tax instead of out of the pockets of the working people.

In 1938 capital skimmâ€" ed off 28¢ for every dollar paid out in wages and salaries; in 1946 they skimâ€" med off 351 ,c for every dollar.

Mr. Magnusson mentioned that the consumption of milk in Ontario had dropped one million quarts since ithe rise in prices. People in the Poreupins were using one pint a day less yet they paid $14,000 more for milk in the camp than last year. The increase in price came from the pockets of the householder and was a reduction in the nutrition of the working people. The unions were working for the reâ€" turn of the subsidy on milk.

In those early railway days travellers sat on hard wooden scats, strained their eyes in the dim light proâ€" vided by kerosene lamps and in wintertime huddled around the old potâ€"bellied stove. (Continued from Page One) The first of its type to go into service in Canada, the new car was designed by C.N.R. architects and car engineers.

One of twenty similar units to "Actually," the speaker said, "the spirit and voice of Dr. Goebels is speaking today in dozens of Canadian uewspapers. We are experiencing exâ€" actly the same situation that existed in Europe before the war. s "At a recent meeting of proviacial premiers and labor leaders it was sugâ€" gested that antiâ€"labor legislation hbe passed that would put a straitâ€"jacket on labor. One thing suggested was a $230 aâ€"day fine for going on strike, the powers to rest with the Minister oi Labor, exactly the same powers that were given to Dr. Ley in Nazi Germauy!

"People should take their stand on side of the fearce," Mr. Magnusson siid. "This is a showdown we are entering into, and it‘s not important whether or not you are a Communist, but it is important that you should not be entiâ€"Communist, for you cannot separate Communism and labor. "Last year we were told wages were tied to prices," the speaker contiaued, "but not this year. ~Prices are now ‘tied toâ€" profits. However, concern‘ is with the consumers purchasing: power. "This is an industrialists experiment to isolate one section of labor from another. If people would only study the Communist movement a little they would see that this is a fight between people who ow n for a liivng and people who work for a living, with the issue as to who is going to have the bigzest share. "Anyone who thinks there is anyâ€" thing secret about Communism only shows his owx»1 ignorance. There is plenty of literature available for any who wish‘to investigate the movement, and they will find that it is based on the struggle for fundamental rights for selfâ€"preservaticn. "It is the democratic right of a workâ€" er to fight for a better living, and the fight is becoming more mtense all the time. In concluding Mr. Magnusson said. "We fight to maintain the highest standard of living for everybody " "‘The Ontario government," he said, "has just turned down a plan to care for 15,000 crippled children, putting the responsibility on the shoulders cf voluntary service clubs such as the Kiwanis. "Some of the staunch upholders of the commandments are the greatest Chstructionists to those who waxnt to achieve social improvement."
