Plan Urged By Mayor Merrill At Banquet \u201cPlans should be made now to enlarge the present compulsory education plan,\u201d Walter A.Merrill, K.C., Mayor of Westmount.declared at the ninth annual banquet of the Westmount High Old Boys\u2019 Assoclation, held in the Salle Dorée, Mount Royal Hotel, last Thursday evening.The mayor went on to say that university training ghould be restricted to those able to benefit from it, all .other students to receive training in the skills to which they are best adopted.He added that English people in Quebec should make the best of the many opportunities they have to learn to speak French and he praised the youth of today for the marvellous part they are playing in the winning of this war.Mr.Merrill continued that it must be a source of pride to know that 1,252 former students of Westmount High School are Governor-General, Roslyn Avenue, The occupants, \u201cAthlone Incognito\u201d On Wednesday, at 4.30 p.m., one of the most

evidently walking for the fresh air and exercise, as the weather had turned delightfully mild, and there was a sunny blue sky overhead.Roy Howard, 12 Park Place, correspondent of The Examiner, witnessed the above .incident.now on active service and that 78 others have paid the supreme sacrifice.Praise is also due to the high school, he said, because it was there that the Air Cadet League of Canada, } grown to 371 squadrons with a membership of 29,000 cadets In Canada, started.A feature of the meeting was the presentation of the eward of honour to Herbert W.Shayne by S.F.Kneeland, superintendent of Westmount schools.The award has been presented annually since 1936 to a student who, in the opinion of his fellow graduates has rendered the greatest gervice to the school, and who has best combined the qualities of honour, scholarship, and sportsmanship.Mr.Kneeland described Herbert Shayne as a person not only admired, but also \"oved.Immediately after the dinner, (CONTINUED ON

hear the earth waking and the buds swelling.We see the robins a-wing, the yellow and purple crocus vocal against the snow.\u201d The best of the year is on its way.So, friend March, your premise may

Street, Westmount?A.\u2014 The Montreal Lacrosse Grounds, the forerunner of the M.A.A.A, occupied the land owned by the Phillips Estate on Sherbrooke St.West, between Bishop and Crescent Streets, during the period 1868 to 1887.When the property was sub-di- vided and sold for building lots, the Irvine Farm, at the west end of Dorchester Street, near Halo- well Avenue, was purchased for $45,000.At an additional cost of $18,000 a clubhouse was erected; fencing, grading and levelling arranged, as well as one-tbird- mile cinder track.To provide means of transportation for the opening of the clubhouse and grounds, as there were in those days no street cars, the C.P.R.ran a special train from Windsor Station to the grounds.In 1890, a large rink was laid out, including 20 arc lights, which was very popular.In 1895 the Irvine Cottage was purchased to provide entrance by St.Catherine Street.By 1902 all the obligations were paid, with the clubhouse and grounds free of debt, an outstanding achievement.In 1910 & new and modern clubhouse, with thousands of steel lockers for members\u2019 convenience, was erected, at a cost of $75,000.In 1914 the grounds were landscaped, and 15 tennis courts added, also two bowling greens, a quarter-mile track, as well ag complete facilities for all types of out-of-door field sports.A disastrous fire in 1928 destroyed the covered-in stands.The Jubilee celebration was observed in 1931 when the largest flag pole in Canada was erected, displaying the largest flag in Canada.Since 1888 there have been only two superintendents, the late George Crawford, and J.Brooks, who is still a faithful employee.In the year 1936 the property, valued at $300,000 was purchased by the City of Westmount for the sum of $185,000.Changes were made to the Interior more in Kvow Your Westmount 4 keeping with a public building as distinguished from a private club.The building was completely renovated and the heating system revamped.The grounds of the property were enlarged slightly and completely re-fenced with chain-link fencing, replacing an old board fence.The grounds were embellished with new terraces, shrubs and plants, \u2019 A lighting system was installed on the tennis courts -for night playing; the grandstands were widened and strengthened and the roof of the old grandstand and some portion of the stand itself were removed.A rBception office was built at the main entrance.On 2nd September, 1939, the Department of National Defence took over the grounds and the buildings are now under lease for the duration of the war.The Scriptures are very sacred.Our aim must be to have them understood spiritually, for only by this understanding can truth be gained.\u2014Mary Baker Eddy.IN M.R.T.ROLE Miss Stella Sprowell, well-known

of MeGill University, paid tribute to H.B.Parker, principal of \u2018Westmount High, who is retiring this year.He referred to Mr, Parker's desire to instill a love for learning in his pupils, and to his sense of duty and affection for his students.* Other speakers were George Smith, director of athletics; Lt, Cmdr.R.Crutchlow, O.B.E,; G.H.Kruger and John Anderson of the cigarette fund, who

had been postponed 80 many times, but which, at long last had become a reality.\u201d As they gathered at the Garden City Baptist Church, a sing song was carried on by AC2 Howard Hurst until the sleighs arrived.Aftar a thrilling two hours drive through the country roads and byways, the sleighs returned tc find a warm meal awaiting them, very kindly prepared by Lieut.Ed.Perreault and Mrs.Perreault from | .the 3rd Company.This was most thoroughly enjoyed by all, and the evening terminated after a \u2018period of fellowship.Captain J.H.Richardson took charge of the drive.The boys who took part at Captain Douglas Corlett\u2019's wedding were highly commended by those present on their smartness.In the absence.of Col.Sgt.Edwin -Goring, they were under the command of Cpl.Alan Keith for this occasion.\u201c The unit has entered the Battalion Drill Competitions and much emphasis has been laid upon squad drill these past weeks so that the squad entering will be in readiness to put up a strong battle for the trophy, now held by the 10th Company.The Basketball and Hockey trophies are being -competed for by sudden death \u2018play-offs and it is hoped that the \u201c1st Company's teams can bring something home this year.The first of -these finals in hockey will take place Wednesday night when they play the 10th.+ The Brass Band is progressing most favourably with a considerable number of new recruits \u2018being trained separately by Capt.J.H.Richardson, and in the absence for a few weeks of Lieut.Chas.King, due to special night work, they are carrying on very

to a technical report, a home-heating revolution is overdue, for it offers, they say, a wonderful promise for the difficult postwar years.Virginia, Minnesota, is an example of what can be done In an average community, where furnaces are obsolete and hard coal] is go expensive that nobody buys it; oil is practically unknown and one cannot even purchase a coal shovel or an ash sieve, and this is not California either.It is northern Minnesota, where the temperature will hang on the underside of zero for à monib at a time.Here, in the heart of the famous Mesabi [ron Range, is one big furnace that makes steam heat for practically all its 12,- 300 citizens.It employs thirty men to tend its heating plant, and not one of them shovels coal.Machinery.does all that.The average householder, living snug in a five-room house without a chimney, pays about $70 in all, to have his house amd his water heated for one year.That is just about half what it costs the rest of us to keep warm by stoking our own furnaces.Central district heating is not new.Some 300 U.S.cities and towns have partial installations.But Virginia is the first American community to go all out for this business Men,

include Virginia's ultramodern hospital, it took six men to .run the Institution's boiler plant.One janitor is enough now, Central district heating is already being adopted throughout Russia \u2014

national liberty.March 15 is to Hungarians what July 4 is to Americans and Bastille Day to the French.It was nearly a century ago that Iouis Kossuth, greatest of Hungarian liberals and one of the world\u2019s greatest exponents of the doctrine of \u2018the greatest good for the greatest number,\u201d set the spark to the conflagration that drove Metternich into exile after the Austrian tyrant had ruled all continental Europe with an iron hand for thirty-four long years.Hungarian freedom didn\u2019t last long, however, for with the help of the Tsar of Russia and a strong army, the Austrian Emperor put out the light of liberty that Kossuth had kindled, and it was never regained.Kossuth had to flee the continent, but he was acclaimed as a hero both in England and the United States.Among Hungarian democrats, he has always been regarded as the greatest of their political leaders.In many a hide-out in his native land, both communists and liberals will join next Wednesday in observing his memory and look forward to the day when their country will be free of the Nazi tyranny.Fer the first time in a century, they have a reason to hope that out of the ruin this war has brought them might emerge a measure of justice and opportunity for the common man.MOVIES IN THE ORIENT ONE DAY I was a guest at a luncheon for Joe Fisher, a famous showman in Singapore for 27 years preceding the war, writes William Feather.Fisher managed a chain of movie theatres in the Orient and was proprietor of the famous Capitol Theatre in Singapore in which were housed three restaurants, a roof garden, a night club, and a 1600- seat cinema.\u201cTarzan and his Son\u201d was the most popular film ever presented in Singapore.It \"was shown seven times daily for seven weeks.Orientals won\u2019t stand in line to buy tickets.They charge the cashier's cage like football players, crushing each other and walking on prostate: bodies.Fisher built heavy railings in a futile attempt to enforce THE EXAMINER, FRIDAY, MARCH 10, 1944 \\ order.Natives climbed atop the cage and dove deadlong into the waiting queue.The final solution during Tarzan\u2019s run was to empty the theatre after each showing and then to admit a new horde regardless of tickets.After every seat was taken, bouncers disposed of those who had no cash.A synopsis of each movie was printed in | numerous dialects, and this was thé

upon automobiles making a saving on the average car licence of from $6.00 to $9.00 each, again calls attention to the fact that the Province of Quebec is the most tax-ridden province in the Dominion.While the earnings of labor are on the average less in this province than in most of the others, the burden of taxation is most definitely higher.7 Not only'are the taxes upon automobiles and gasoline and other items much higher than they are in other provinces, but there are many nuisance taxes here which are unknown in other provinces, such as the sales tax, meal tax, etc.} While the tax load piles up higher and higher in Quebec, there are no signs of any of them being lessened; in fact the sales tax, which was originally supposed to be designed to put the finance of the province in better shape after the spending orgy of the Du- plessis government, has proved to be so profitable that it probably will never be abolished.Many business leaders of the province are very much worried at the way in which Ontario is expanding much quicker than Quebec.One of the chief things that is holding Quebec behind is the overpowering load of taxes.\u2014Granky Leader-Mail.i { Ee i NRA IN IME

Reserve Corporation, announced a deal with Standard Oil Company of Calif, and the Texas Company, which together form the American Arabian Oil Company, which will enable them to begin development of their vast concessions in Saudia Arabia.The U.S.Government will supply the $150,000,000 estimated as needed to build a 1,250-mile pipeline¥ from the Persian Gulf to the Mediterranean, in return for which the companies promise to maintain a reserve of 1,000,000,- 000 barrels of oil for the United States navy or other Government use.Oil! sold to the Government will be at a 20% discount.Bstimates of the oil the companies will be able to get from j- their Arabian concessions vary from 30 to 100 billion barrels, or enough to supply the world at the present rate of consumption for from 15 to 50 yéars.The recent large loans made by the U.S.A.to Ibn Saud, the despot of Saudi Arabia, is supposed to have played a major part in preparing the way for the deal.Present information indicates that the oil companies may reasonably expect large profits.Their financial investment Is to be $20,000,000.If they sell 30,000,000,000 barrels of oil at a profit of §1 a barrel-\u2014which is said to be a conservative fore- cast\u2014that would mean a gain of 150,000 per cent, The New York Times .in a front-page story stated that the pipeline deal! is only a part of the adventure in oil on which the U.S.A.has embarked.According to the Times, negotiations are under way to divide the entire oil fields of the Middle East as an oil producing reserve, between Great Britain, Russia and the United States.And the oil markets of the world will be divided among the three countries.At least 95 per cent of the world\u2019s supply of oil will be controlled.Preliminary agreements to this effect were reached at Cairo and Teheran and British and Russian delegations are expected at Washington to put the finishing touches to the deal.The U.S.A.allows private corporations to act in this super- cartel.In the case of the other members of the cartel, it will be the Governments\u2019 oil cartel that operate\u2014Britain by virtue of its governmental ownership of controlling interest in the

meeting of the board of missions of the Methodist Church of the U.S.A, that he doubted whether missionary work would be per mitted in Russia after the war, Under Russian law, he is reported by

TRADE DISPUTES ACT Pursuant to the request ot Messrs.Cyprien Miron and Bernard Wilson, appointed by the Honourable the Minister of Labour of the Province of Quebec to investigate and to ascertain the causesof a strike of the employees of the Montreal Tramways Company and to recommend a solution to prevent a recurrence thereof, Montreal Tramways Company submits the following résumé of certdin events which took place prior to, at the time of, And subsequent to the said strike, together with such comments as seem to the Company to be relevant to the investigation upon which Messrs.Miron and Wilson are engaged and to the solution of the problem with which they have to deal.In order to appreciate the nature of - the incidents which occurred first on Friday, the 18th day of February, 944, some background of labour relations in the Montreal Tramways Company organization must first given.: The employees of the Montreal Tramways Company have for years been divided in their trade union allegiance.At present three unions exist among the employees, namely, the Canadian Brotherhood of Railway Employees and other Transport Workers; Division 790 of the Amal- amated Association of Street and lectric Railway Employees of America, Montreal Tramways Employees Union; and the National Syndicate of Tramways Employees.Collective bargaining has been practised between the Company and its employees for the last twenty-five years.Collective agreements have during that time been negotiated between the Company and a Committee of the employees.The last collective agreement entered into between the Company and the employees was negotiated in 1940, and y its terms was to run for a period of three years or the duration of the present war, whichever should be thelonger.This agreement was signed on behalf of the employees by their Negotiating Committee duly elected by secret ballot for the purpose of negotiating and settling the terms of an agreement, to be submitted before becoming effective to a vote by secret ballot of all the employees.The agreement referred to was approved by a large majority on that vote.In March, 1943, a dispute between certain Unions of the employees culminated in a general strike which resulted in the susnension of the Committee that they would embark upon negotiations upon those questions which both parties agreed were open for discussion under both the contract and the memorandum, leaving for later treatment matters which were not, in the opinion of one party or the other, open for discussion under the terms of the memorandum and the contract.It was agreed between the parties that their meetings for the purpose; of these discussions should take place in the afternoon on Tuesdays and Fridays each week.The first meeting took place on the 25th day of January, 1944, and meetings had been regularly held u to and including Tuesday, the 15th day of February, 1944.At these meetings the Company has been represented by Mr.D.E.Blair, Vice-President and General Manager, and Mr.Arthur Duperron, Assistant General Manager, assisted by departmental officials whose presence was deemed necessary.Discussions and negotiationsalthough involving strenuous argument have at all times been conducted in a business-like manner and without animosity.As will later be seen, the events which transpired on Friday, the 18th day of February 1944, were such as to make it impracticable to continue these discussions on that day.For the information of the present investigating commission, we are annexing to this submission copies of 1.The contract of July, 1940; 2.The Goldenberg memorandum dated March 31st, 1943: 3.The changes requested by the committee under date of December 28th, 1943; and 4.The correspondence which ensued between Decembdr 28th, 1943, and January 25th, 1944.The Company places particular emphasis upon the following quotation from the Goldenberg memorandum of March 31st, 1943: \u201cIt is agreed by the Brotherhood that there shall be no strikes until recourse has been had to all Federal Government agencies provided for the settlement of industrial dis- utes.\u201d i.Fhe Company had received no intimation from the committee of any impending stoppage of work on the part of the employees nor of any strike on their part, and certainly there was not, so far as the Company is aware, any recourse had to any Federal Government agai i to do with the settlement 5f the st \u20ac.of the 18th of February 1944, or any matter contributing to it, before the strike occurred.In view of the fact that it had been snecested hath bv Mr.Miron and My of Montreal I feel that the Montreal Tramways Company owes a duty to all those in any way affected by the recent strike of its employees to publish for their information our official record of the circumstances and of the Company\u2019s attitude with respect thereto which is contained in the text which follows.R.N.WATT, President, enquire of its individual employees as to their union affiliations.The incidents to which reference has been made of C.B.R.E.members refusing to work with members of the other Unions were at first sporadic in their character, but even at that stage brought about very serious operating difficulties.It is the practice, under the operating routine now in force, for motormen and conductors on regular runs to be relieved at certain points of the routes covered by their cars after completion of a certain tour of duty.In one of the early instances of trouble, a relief employee, either a con- -ductor or motorman, refused to work with the employee on the other end of the car and the car was therefore left on the tracks without a crew to move it, creating an obvious and immediate dislocation of service.Under the rules governing transportation operations any employee who refuses duty without recognized cause is automatically suspended to be later disciplined as the circumstances, upon investigation, require.It followed, therefore, that the early offenders of Friday the 18th of February were automatically sus- the National War Labour Board or pended and some importance was to any other Federal Government later alleged to be attached to that agency.fact.Jt has been reported to the Com- It is of the utmost importance to pany that prior to Friday, the 18th

Fifih,\u2014The Company points out that the most casual examination of the demands made by the Negotiating Committee will disclose that their adoption would involve a complete change in the hours and wages as well as other working conditions to which both the Company and the employees are committed by the present contract and that the effect of these demands in increased costs of operation of the Company's services as well as in the arrangements of the routine of its operations could not be appreciated or determined without careful research and investigation, for which some v considerable time is required.It is the fact, however, that the necessary research was instituted as early as possible and that the staff of the Company has been assembling the information made necessary by these demands with all possible despatch.J Sixth\u2014The Company had had no intimation from the Negotiating Committee that there was in contemplation by the employees any strike action, nor had the Company been invited by that Committee or any other representatives of its employees to carry any question to 1 \u201cembers -or~-thé*-Eeaaatam: Brotherhood of Railway Employees, were refusing to man cars upon which employees who were members of rival Unions were assigned to duty.At this junctiire.it would appear to at the turn of events, but also undertook to use his best efforts to prevent any, further refusal of duty.In a subsequent telephone communication CES IVIFP=-V RUYUCLLE.MUL and om assured the Company of his supra C case it was again stated that there would be no question of suspensions or other disciplinary action against those who had refused duty.Mr.Marquette after some discussion said that he would use his authority and influence toward the desired end.In this statement the members of the Negotiating Committee joined and agreed to co-operate.A mass meeting was later called to be held at Atwater Hall, the Company agreeing upon request of the Provincial Deputy Minister of Labour made through Mr.Miron to supply transportation for its employees to the meeting place.Later, as appears from press reports, the meeting was abandoned because of insufficient attendance.Transportation services were at a standstill all day Saturday, the 19th of February.A further meeting of employees was called to be held at Atwater Hall during the morning, and the Company again, upon the request of the eputy Minister of Labour for the Province again presented by Mr.Miron, agreed to furnish transportation to the meeting for its employees.Such efforts as were made by Union officials to have work resumed by the employees during the course of the day were unsuccessful.During the course of the afternoon communications were received by the Company from the Prime Minister of the Province insisting upon immediate resumption of transportation services and informing the Company that it could assure operators of vehicles full and complete protection.The substance of the communication from the Prime Minister was transmitted at once by special messenger to the officers of all three Unions and a special announcement embodying the rime Minister's statement was prepared by the Company and broadcast over local radio stations.During the course of the evening, Mr.Marquette communicated with Mr.Blair, Vice- President and General Manager of the Company, informing him that he was satisfied that he could get the men to return to work if the Company would meet two conditions: (i) That there should be no discrimination against employees -who bad refused duty, and (ii) That members of the Canadian Brotherhood of Railway Employees would not be required to work with members of other Uni sz orthe t1rst OFThese CONEGTHONS;t ompany immediately assented, feeling that, in the interest of the travelling public, it was obliged to waive the rather important question \"of dis- ~rdinae âfin de retourner les hommes au.travail.\u201d\u2014, Monsieur Duperron: \u201cAlors c'est vous qui avez dit cela et non Monsieur Blair?\u201d Monsieur Corbeil: \u201cOui il fallait faire quelque chose pour les rentrer au travail.\u201d *TRANSLATION :\u2014 Mr.Corbeil: \u201cWe told the men when they went back to work that Mr.Blair promised that there would be no discrimination because of the strike.After that, the following question was put by an employee: Âre we going to be obliged to work with the rats?To that we replied, on our own: go back to work, you will not be obliged to work with them.We did that to get the men back to work\"\u2014 Mr.Duperron: \u201cSo it was you that said that, and not Mr.Blair?\u201d Mr.Corbeil: \u201cYes, we had to do something to get them back to work.\u201d The Montreal Gazette, on the morning of Monday the 21st day of February, carried a report of the proceedings at the meeting at Atwa- ter Hall, from which we quote the following extract\u2014 \u201cSome 4,000 of the striking employees at a mass meeting at Atwater Market Hall Saturday night were ordered back to their jobs by union leaders, promised that \u2018within 15 days all causes of the strike will have been removed by a conciliation board\u2019.They were told also that a company assurance had been made that \u2018no member of the Tramway Employees will be forced to work on the same cars as em- loyees of rival unions\u2019.\"\u201d rom the columns of the Montreal Star reporting the same meeting, we quote as follows: \u201cBefore many of the men had left the building, a conductor came into the market section and ordered the men back to the hall, where Marquette announced he had telephoned D.E.Blair, vice-president and general manager of the Montreal Tramways Company.\u201cMr.Blair, Marquette said, had agreed\u2019 that there would be no discrimination against any of strikers, and that C.C.L.and A.F.of L.men would be kept apart from ch other during working \u201cThé .Vting was also reported in the columnsof La Presse and in that paper's issue of the 21st of February, 944, Mr.Marquette is reported to have said\u2014 ; = To the Citizens of the Metropolitan District their appointment by the Honourable the Minister of bour for this Province, ascertain and establish, as the primary cause of the trouble, a concerted movement in defiance of obligations created both by the law and by contract to bring about a cessation of thetransportation services of this Company; that they should thereupon enquire into and discover the names of the persons responsible for these events as having organized and directed them; and should make a recommendation, both to the officers of the Union to which the offending parties belong and to the public authorities, for the discipline and punishment of such persons.It may well be that such action on the part of the representatives of the Minister of Labour will result in complete fulfilment of their task.The Company, being itself unaware, either prior to or subsequent to the events now under investigation, of their real cause or of the names of the persons who instigated and directed the incidents above related, cannot in the nature of things suggest any solution which would be calculated to revent a recurrence of similar trou- le.It can, however, make some general observations which seem under the circumstances to be very much in point.In the first place, while in a spirit of co-operation with the investigators, it has agreed to sit daily and cone tinuously with the Negotiating Committee in order to achieve such finality as is possible in the negotia tions now current, it does not believe that any agreement, which it can under the law and In fairness and justice to its employees subacribe to, will provide any guarantee against a.recurrence of lawlessness and disregard of contractual obligations when it has before it the undoubted evidence : that the obligations undertaken foe its employees by the officers of the Canadian Brotherhood of Railway Employees in the Goldenberg m randum, so called, have been flo and the pficers of that Union, in: uding the tiat omimittee, have been diso and their authority set at naught.It does not believe that any assurance can be had a the recurrencs of the hardships to which the travelling public of Montreal have been sub- Jected by illegal cessation of work until the leaders of the various organizations to which its employees adhere have gained wndoubted aus thority and control of their members and have demonstrated their ability and their desire to enforce, appropriate disciplins, that authority pe OAT ee CYA RT TRIN Sn i nse os STLpULIallily Ulli adly CIS LOU by secret ballot for the purpose of negotiating and settling the terms of an agreement, to be submitted before becoming effective to à vote by secret ballot of all the employees.The agreement referred to was approved by a large majority on that vote.In March, 1943, a dispute between certain Unions of the employees culminated in a general strike which resulted in the suspension of the Company's transportation services.Dr.Carl Goldenberg was appointed by the Department of Labour of the Dominion of Canada to investigate the situation and to effect a settlement of the difficulties.As a result of Dr.Goldenberg's intervention, a memorandum was drawn up dated March 31st, 1943, addressed to the Montreal Tramways Company and to the representatives of the three Unions, and this memorandum sets out the basis upon which the strike was settled.The principal provisions of the memorandum were to the effect that the men on strike should agree to return to work at once and be allowed to resume their duties without discrimination and that a Negotiating Committee of three employees of the Company appointed by the Canadian Brotherhood of Railway Employees and other Transport Workers should be recognized by the Company as the sole bargaining agency for its employees.Further, that the Company and the Negotiating Committee should agree to discuss such changes in the existing contract (i.e., the contract of July 1940) as should be suggested by the Negotiating Committee or the Company.The memorandum further provided that, if the Committee by a majority of its members and the Company could not agree, all matters not settled and determined between them should be submitted to the National War Labour Board for decision or to such other agency as might be set up by the Federal Government.The memorandum also contained an agreement on the part of the Canadian Brotherhood of Railway Employees that there should be no strikes until recourse had been had to all Federal .Government agencies provided for the settlement of industrial disputes.Pursuant to the terms of the memorandum summarized above, the Canadian Brotherhood of Railway Em- loyees appointed Messrs.J.Eucher Corbeil, Aimé Cardinal and Paul Valiquette as the Negotiating Committee.The Company duly recognized the Committee so appointed, and has since the 31st day of March, 1943, dealt with them solely in all matters affecting the collective interest of the employees and their relations with the Company.No request was made by the Company for changes in the existing contract, and the first changes in that contract which were requested by the Negotiating.Committee were delivered to the Company in writing on the 28th day of December, 1943.An exchange of correspondence then took place between the Company and the Committee in which the Company took the position that many of the changes propesed by the N egotiating Committee were not such as to fal within the class of matters which it was obligated to discuss either under the contract of July 1940 or the Goldenberg memorandum, so called, of the 31st March, 1943.The Negotiating Committee took issue with the Company's view, and it was finally agreed between the Company and the ARPCIULlLE StupP Part UL WOIR UI LC part of the employees nor of any strike on their part, and certainly there was not, so far as the Company is aware, any recourse had to any Federal Government agde i to do with the settlement 5f the strike: of the 18th of February 1944, or any matter contributing to it, before the strike occurred.In view of the fact that it had been suggested both by Mr.Mironand Mr.Wilson at their first meeting with representatives of the Company and of the Canadian Brotherhood of Railway Employees held on Wednesday the 23rd of February, 1944, that one of the prime causes of the strike was the delay which had occurred in the conclusion of a signed contract between the Company and its employees, the following observations, even at the risk of some repetition, are pertinent.In the first place, as the Goldenberg Memorandum very properly recognized, there has been since July, 1940, and still is in existence a valid and binding contract between the Company and its employees, negotiated on behalf of the latter by representatives duly elected by them, and in this contract are to be found covenants relative to wages and working conditions which have proven to be adequate for the regulation of relations between the Company and its employees for a period in excess of three years.Second, it must be apparent that any delay in the discussion of changes requested in the contract, prior to the time that the Company received notice of the changes requested, must be attributable to some act or omission on the part of the Negotiating Committee rather than of the Com- ny.Pe ira, it was stated by Mr.Miron, with the concurrence of Mr.Wilson, that negotiations between the Committee and the Company for a signed contract had been under way for nearly a year.The only negotiations with respect to the contract that have been conducted between the Company and the Committee were those initiated by proposals made by the Negotiating Committee on the 28th of December, 1943.As was pointed out above, these negotiations began only on the 25th of January, 1944, and had not been therefore under way for a full month at the time that Mr.Miron made the statement.Consequently, Mr.Miron's information had obviously come from sources which are not to be relied upon and it is, in the view of the Company, unfortunate that he and his colleague should have entered upon the investigation prejudging the facts upon information which any inquiry from the Company would have quickly demonstrated to be unreliable.Fourth \u2014The Company submits that its obligation under Paragraph 4 of the Goldenberg Memorandum must be read in conjunction with Article 89 of the Contract and that it could not be held, therefore, to the discussion and settlement, as changes in the existing contract, of matters other than those falling within the meaning of the words \u2018\u2018all questions that have not been foreseen or that could affect this agreement.\u201d The Company invites consideration of the matters put forward by the Negotiatin Committee on December 28th, 1943, with the suggestion that many of the demands then made by the Committee go far beyond what was had in contemplation either by the Golden- berg Memorandum or by the contract.RE EEE ES Lt A ed A affecting operations was in the morning of l\u2018riday the 18th of February, 1944, at which time reports reached the Company's offices that some I who asserted themselves ç \u2018fiembers -or\u2014-thé~Eenaatan\u2019 Brotherhood of Railway Employees, were refusing to man cars upon which employees who were members of rival Unions were assigned to duty.At this juncture it would appear to be logical to indicate briefly the procedure by which motormen, conductors and chauffeurs are assigned to duty.The matter is covered by Articles 20.and 24 of the contract of July, 1940, which we quote in full\u2014 \u201cLISTS, BOOKINGS 20.\u2018Lists will be made in all the divisions, and cars and busses booked at least once every two (2) months.Time-tables for the seven (7) days of the week, and choice of runs will be posted in the divisions at least forty- cight hours before the date fixed for the lists, Any change made during these forty-eight hours will be posted separately.Frames and bill-boards containing listing of cars or busses will be placed in such 2 manner as to be easily read by the employees selecting a run.As soon as the lists are posted every employee will have the opportunity, according to his seniority, to book a run of his choice providing he is not in service while doing so.The lists will be so established as to permit every employee to be able to check the total hours per day, per week, for each run and all changes of schedules during the \u201c week shall also be indicated\u201d \u201cSENIORITY The seniority rights of each conductor or motorman will be applied according to his working date with the Company as such, which means that at the lists, if he chooses spare on the relief, it will be impossible for him to pass in front of those who have chosen spare on the regular and vice-versa.The operators shall work according to their working date in the Company as operators, and if a motorman-operator wishes to work as conductor, he will not be allowed to do so unless no other conductors are available.Being understood that the Company has not hired any conductors since 1937, the employees who have been hired since that date will have the seniority in each category such as operator, motorman or conductor but without any prejudice to older operators.\u201d From the foregoing quotations it will appear that the preference in employment is established by the contract strictly in accordance with seniority and quite regardless of Union affiliation.In vehicles operated by one individual the question of association between members of rival Unions in \u2018actual operation cannot, of course, arise.The Company does, however, operate tramcars in which there must be a motorman and a conductor, and if a trailer is attached, the crew is increased by another conductor.It being the fact that the employees are entitled in order of seniority to choose their runs, it is impossible for the Company to so arrange the selection of crews for two-man and three-man cars so as to bring members of one union only into association in the operation of such vehicles any more than it would be possible for them to associate men of the same religious faith or of the same age.Quite apart from the provisions of the contract, the Company has never made it a practice, nor does it think it would be feasible to do so, to AMViIAVAWw VI VAL AVR VLIGLALLS Cr LALART mittee, particularly Mr.Valiquette, advising him of the incidents which had been brought to its attention and requested that he take action to avoi any further dislocation of = .WNo.nad refused duty, and (ii) That members of the Canadian Brotherhood of Railway Employees would not be required to work with members of other agreed\u2019 that there would be no discrimination against any of strikers, and that C.C.L.and A.F.of L.men would be kept apart from\u201d ch other during wo king assured the Company of his surpr at the turn of events, but also undertook to use his best efforts to prevent any further refusal of duty.In a subsequent telephone communication he advised the Company of the efforts which he had made to clear up the situation and of his inability to improve it.The Company, feeling that the situation was growing more serious, communicated with Mr.P.E.Marquette, the Deputy National President of the Canadian Brotherhood of Railway Employees.He, likewise, expressed surprise and indignation at the conduct of the recalcitrant employees and assured the Company that he would immediately take remedial action.Notwithstanding these assurances, the gituation continued to deteriorate, with the result that shortly before five P.M.it was apparent that a general strike had developed and before seven P.M.transportation services had practically ceased completely.In the interim, however, the Company had between noon on Friday and four o'clock of that day succeeded in conveying to Mr.McGuire, the General Secretary of the C.B.R.Eat Ottawa, information as to what was going on in Montreal, and at 4.10 P.M.Mr.McGuire communicated by long distance telephone with the Company advising that the strike of the employees was a contravention of both law and of contract and that he would see that it was stopped.He requested and obtained from Mr.Blair, Vice- President and General Manager of the Company, .an undertaking that the suspension of striking employees and of those who had originally refused duty would be waived by the Company.Between 5 P.M.and 5.45 P.M.the Company was advised of the desire of Mr.Marquette and the members of the Negotiating Committee, accompanied by Mr.Miron of the Provincial Department of Labour, to meet with representatives of the Company.The meeting was held at 5.45 P.M., and at this meeting Mr.Marquette and the members of the Negotiating Committee denied any prior knowledge of the intention of the men to strike, admitted that their action was a violation both of the law and of their contract but asserted that they could not control the em- plovees and doubted their ability to ave them resume their duties without some concessions from the Company.On the part of the Company, it was pointed out, and with emphasis, that if, as appeared to be the case, the avowed cause of the trouble lay in the refusal of members of the Canadian Brotherhood to work with members of rival Unions, the Company could not lawfully dismiss from its service or refuse work to any employee because of his particular Union affiliation and that, as to that, no concession could be made.It was stated further on behalf of \u2018the Company that the management had the greatest confidence in the standing and influence of Mr.Marquette with the members of his Union and that it was clearly the duty and responsibility of Mr.Marquette and the Negotiating Committee to advise the members of their Union to resume their work immediately, ia which CEP =IYIF{~ V HIYUCLLE Solas y immediately assented, feeling that, in the interest of the travelling public, it was obliged to waive the rather important question of discipline.The second condition, the Company refused to accept, convinced that, to do so, would be not only in contravention of the law but a flagrant violation of its contractual obligations to employees who were members of other Unions.Shortly after 10 P.M.on the night of Saturday, the 19th of February, it was reported to the Company by Mr.Marquette that the men had voted to return to work and that.services would be resumed at once.Within a very short time after this report employees began to report for duty and the Company was able to place in prompt service plows and sweepers to clear its rails in advance of resumption of tramways services, and on Sunday morning services were resumed.The Company points out, however, that, during its Sunday operations, certain employees, members of the Canadian Brotherhood of Railway Employees, again refused duty on cars upon which another member of the crew was a member of a rival Union.It also occurred on Sunday that relief crews scheduled to relieve regular operators at various points on car routes failed to report for duty, with the result that in one depot alone some twenty-two cars had to be taken off the service for the remainder of their scheduled runs.The Company ascertained from reports of its divisional officers that the employees who were refusing to work with members of other Unions were stating that at the meeting on Saturday night they had been assured that the Company would not assign members of the Canadian Brotherhood to work with members of rival Unions.The Company, whose representatives had emphatically refused to give any such assurance, communicated by telephone with Mr.J.E.Corbeil, Chairman of the Negotiating Committee.Mr.D.E.Blair, Vice- President and General Manager of the Company, asked Mr.Corbeil if, at the meeting, statements bad been made indicating a promise on the part of the Company to the above effect.In reply Mr.Corbeil asserted that such an assurance had been given to the employees by those who addressed them at the meeting.In order that there might be no misunderstanding about the matter, Mr.Blair asked Mr.Corbeil if he would repeat his statement in French to Mr.Arthur Duperron, , Assistant General Manager of the Company.Mr.Duperron informed Mr.Corbeil that the statement that he was making was being taken down in writing, after which the following conversation ensued: Monsieur Corbeil: \u201cNous avons dit aux hommes lorsqu'ils sont rentrés au travail que Monsieur Blair promettait qu'il n\u2019y aurait pas de discrimination à cause de la grève.Après cela, la question suivante a été posée par un employé: Est-ce que l\u2019on va être obligé de travailler avec les rats?\u201d La nous avons répondu de notre chef: allez-vous en au travail vous ne serez pas obligé de travailler avec.On a fait cela ol 'grEhe 1Irst Of these CONAITIONS; -THE\u2014\u2014=T{{§ + Com 7 Wing was also reported in the columnsof La Presse and in that Paper's issué of the 21st of February, 944, Mr.Marquette is reported to have said\u2014 \u201cJ'ai aussi l'assurance que la compagnie n'usera pas de repré- \u2018sailles envers vous\u2019.Encore des acclamations.\u2018Enfin\u2019, dit-il, \u2018on m\u2019a promis que vous ne serez plus forcés de travailler avec des \u201cscabs\u201d (des employés faisant partie de l\u2019Union internationale)\u2019.\u201d *TRANSLATION: \u201cI have also had the assurance that there will be no discrimination against you by the Company.\u2019 More applause.\u2018Moreover,\u2019 he said, \u2018I have been promised that you will no longer be forced to work with the \u2018scabs\u2019 (the employees belonging to the International Union}.The Company points out that such a promise not having been made b Mr.Blair, any representation that it had been, if given to induce the employees to return to work, was unwisely given and could only tend to aggravate the condition asserted to have brought about the difficulty.The Company doeg not believe that satisfactory labour relations can exist upon any basis other than complete candour and frankness between employer and employees in the first place and, in the second, between the representatives of the employees and those whom they represent.During Monday, the 2lst of February, and Tuesday, the 22nd of February, there have again been refusals of certain Canadian Brotherhood members to work with members of other Unions, and this state of affairs bas also again occurred in certain instances on February 23rd.The Company finds that many of these employees who refused to work give as their reason for so doing a stereotyped reply to the effect that they read in the newspapers that they should not work with members of other Unions.: The Company under the circumstances is not in a position to make any accusation, and makes none, against the members of the Negotiating Committee or any other official of the Union as such; but it does most emphatically state that it cannot agree that its whole force of transportation employees, and within a space of a few hours on one day, could be induced to stop work and leave the population which is dependent for its transportation entirely upon this Company\u2019s services helpless, unless the result achieved had been previously organized and planned.It finds it difficult to believe that the officers of the Union by whose members, so far as can be ascertained, the first interruptions of the service were instigated, are so devoid of influence as to be unable to ascertain the names of the persons who were the ringleaders and who organized and directed the events leading up to and resulting in the strike.It, therefore, suggests to Mr.Miron and to Mr.Wilson that, before any request is made of the Company to make any gesture towards conciliation or appeasement, they should first, in accordance with the terms of * Translation not included in Report.had a the recurrence of the hardships to which the travelling public of Montreal have been subjected by illegal cessation of %orlk until the leaders of the various organizations to which ite employees adhere have gained wndoubted aus thority and control of their members and have demonstrated their ability and their desire to enforce, by appropriate discipline, that sutbority and control, to the end that obligations undertaken in the name of the employees by their representatives shall be honourably and loyally respected and fulfilled.È urthermore, it does not pelieve that any investigate ing body, no matter how great their ability or how earnest their effort, can reach a solution calculated to assure harmony in the relations between this Company andits employees until they evolve some formula: through the use of which it will become impossible for the representatives of the employees to misrepresent, Or fail to disclose to those employees, frankly and candidly and upon the sole basis of truth, the attitude of the Company upon questions affecting relations between it and its employees.The Company would like to record not only its belief in the soundness of the essential principles involved in collective bargaining, but its stron desire that it should be enabled through the proper channels to treat with its employees and to reach with them agreements on all matters affecting not only mutual interests but upon matters which, as the results of last week-end so clearly demonstrated, affect the welfare of the community served by the Company and of the industries through which members of that community in large numbers earn their livelihood.The Company does not believe that: this result can be achieved by any policy of appeasement or by evasive discussions which refuse to recognize the realities of the situation.It jis convinced that the stage has heen reached in its relations with its employees which calls for the utmost candour and plain speaking; that any state of affairs under which agreements affecting relations, whose harmonious continuance is 80 vital to the public, are set aside at the whim of irresponsible individuals whose identity and existence appears to have been so successfully concealed from their own officers and leaders, is intolerable.In conclusion, the Company again urges the investigators, in the interests (i) of the public, (ii) of organized labour as a whole, (iii) of our own employees, and (iv) of this Company, to concentrate upon what appears to it to be the issue of primary and fundamental importance to be determined, namely,\u2014 what person or persons, in defiance of law, contract and union authority, induced the employees of this Company to tie up all transportation services for the people in Montreal on the 18th and 19th days of February, 1944, and by what means and under what authority, if any, did such person or persons presume to act.The Company feels confident that, if the investigators discover the answer to the question lastly put, the remedy for the ill and the preventive of its recurrence will be a matter of little, if any, difficulty.DATED at Montreal, this 25th

competition in the first round as they received defeats from the Town of Mount Royal midgets and bantams.The midgets suffered a 4-2 defeat while the bantams held the Town of Mount Royal team to a 1-all draw in their first meet- Ing and then dropped out when they lost a 3-2 game that required two overtime »eriods before the verdict was reached.- The Golden Eagles midgets gave the reputedly strong Mount Royal team some anxious moments a8 they gathered a two goal lead on counters by Fred Dejean and Jan Macaulay but they could not hold the edg in play and the winners came from behind to show their power and gain a 4-2 decision.The Golden Eagles bantams held a bit of an edge in their first game with the Town of Mount Royal but the best thoy could do was to ret a tle, scoring their only goal on a penalty shot that Dave Binmore converted.At that time the Town of Mount Royal team held a one goal lead and this counter sent the game Into overtime, ' The second game between the two teams saw the Town of Mount Royal team take a one goal lead that they held until the last five minutes of the third stanza when Bruce Thomson scored the equalizer and Cam McFadden added another to give the local club a one goal lead.Unfortunately the Golden Eagles were unable to hold their lead and the Town of Mount Royal banged in the tying goal with but a minute or 80 remaining.The teams battled through two extra periods before the Town of Mount Royal club tallled the winning counter.ST.LEO'S SPORTS By BILLY HAROLD The spotlight was taken off the hockey activities last week' when the

it is to be hoped that something along these lines will be accomplished soon.The youngsters in the Inter- mural League are becoming impatient waiting for their playoffs to get underway but extreme difficulty in securing ice has been the cause of the delay and it Is to be hoped that with the completion of the school schedules that the announcement of the play-off dates will be forthcoming in a few days.The boxing season 1s slowly getting underway but with the hockey season prolonged it will be another week before things will be In full swing.Boys in hockey will: not be allowed in boxing till their skates are hung up.The City of Westmount will fete the teams from the Municipal League some time in April and on this particular evening our undefeated bantam B team will likely receive their title winning crests and also the trophy emblematic of the Westmount Q.A.H.A, championship, The bantam A team's proposed visit to Valleyfield will probably take place on Friday, March 17.They will play Gault Institute Senior B team.Tickets bought for the Xavier Apostolate Carnival which was postponed on account of the street car strike will be honored dn March 24, the new date of this

today they are too often the result of scrambles around the nets with nobody able to see who scored.In those days the puck was played closely, moved with the players; today, with the players scattered all over the ice, and with the puck being slapped and batted backwards, forwards, and sideways, it is the little rubber disc, not the players, that moves so fast.The other day Leo Burns was quoted as saying he liked the present game because it had become \u201ca game of lacrosse on skates.\u201d Leo sized up the present game accurately in those six words.Most old-timers don't think the present game is hockey and they don\u2019t like it, but Leo is an old-time Shamrock lacrosse player.» * » Old-time teams had no first line, second line, and kid line.They had one line, two defencemen, & goaler, and a couple of subs available just in case a riot broke out and a regular or two got conked, as they frequently did.Sixty-minute hockey made them cautious in the opening stages of a game, like fighters feeling one another out, until they got their second wind.This necessity to go the route made them calculating and canny, and developed the greatest stick-handlers the game ever knew.As late as 1922, when substitutions were permitted at any time, an Ottawa team composed of Clint Benedict, George Boucher, Eddie Gerard, Frank Nighbor, Cy Dennenny, and Jack Darragh played three successive games without changing a player, and won them all against opponents who changed every few minutes.» * * Old timers claim that the lack of individuality among players today is largely due to this frequent changing.Any fast skating bush leaguer, they say, can go out there and dart around like a puff in a gale of wind for three minutes.That's what they all do; and to the casual visitor, at the rink today they all look pretty much the same.Among old-time players there was no such uniformity \u2014 tricky stick-handlers like Tommy Smith, Ernie Russell, Odie Cleg- horn, Buck Boucher, Aurel Joliat and Joe Malone; spectacular rushing stars like Eddie Gerard, Harry Cameron, Sprague Cleghorn, Newsy Lalonde, Cyclone Taylor and Howie Morenz; calculating poke- check artists, like Jack Walker and Frank Nighbor, with the skill of billiard players.Nobody stands out from the crowd today as these men did.\u2019 + * ¥ That our national game is still in the evolutionary stage is evidenced by the annual revisions of the rules\u2014revisions so drastic that they have entirely changed the character of the game several times in recent years.Our game hasn\u2019t yet reached the stabilized perfection of baseball or football, Perhaps we could do worse than throw away the bulky, many- articled rule books in use today and get back to the ten command- ments that used to be printed on the back of the schedules.mm a Time fem me wens dette Wate \u201cWestmount\u2019s Home Newspaper\u201d Armed Forces Get Preference Members of the armed forces are entitled to travel preference, C.H.Worby, superintendent, sleeping and dining car departs ment, for the Canadian National Railways Western Region, told a class of department workers rege istered in a special refresher course designed to streamline sere vice to the public.Mr, Worby sald that more than fifty percent of meals served in National Syse tem dining cars were to travellers in uniform.Pressure on facilis ties is such that all travellers are being invited to vacate dining car seats at the finish of the meal without stopping there to smoke or read.Quick Change In Plane Engine Only ten bolts need to be une screwed to remove the complete power plant, including engine, propeller and accessories of the new four-engined Constellation aircraft.A change of power plant can be accomplished in 20 minutes per engine.The four engines can be removed and ree placed in less time than it takes a passenger to fly from Montreal to Ottawa and return.The Constellation is one of the most up-to-date long range transport aircraft and is being dee veloped by Lockheed Corporation as a successor to the world famous Lodestar as used in the Trans-Canada Air Lines fleet.for regular daily deliveries PASTEURIZED MILK CALL MA.56131 GUARANTEED PURE HOMOGENIZED Milk!
