made a courageous decision in’
rejecting an application by. the
Canadian Association of Industrial,
Mechanical and Allied Workers
(CAIMAW) for a union certification
vote at the big Cominco Ltd.
smelter plant at Trail. It was the
best decision in the interest of
labor-management stability.

The board wil] no doubt be
heavily criticized by the national
Canadian unions battling
American-based international
unions for’ the allegiance of
Canadian workers. It will be ac-
cused of siding with the inter-
- nationals and of treating untairly
workers who want their own
Canadian unions.

But the board has no respon- -

sibility to enter the fray on that -
issue on one side or the other. Its
jobs is to make sure that unions
and management behave accor-
ding to the rules of the Labor Code’
whose: underlying purpose is to
maintain as much civility as,
possible in the rough and tumble
world of labor relations.

The issue here was whether the
board should ignore the fact that
CAIMAW had gone beyond the

‘United Steelworkers union.

The board :was guided by the
need for fresh evidence of a sub-
stantial desire by the workers fora

the list of signatures obtained over
a peried beyond:the three months
accurately reflected that desire. So
it chose to adhere to its policy of
not allowing representation votes

A fine line must be drawn bet-

workers to change unions and the
need for industrial relations
stability. The board should nof
stand in the way of change and, if
the Cominco workers are sufticien-

tly dissatisfied, CAIMAW will still,

have a good chance to win later.
But the board would have set a
difficult precedent if it had allowed
a vote when, in fact, it found no
compelling reasons to break the

By stating that employees will still

1 Asa student of history,especially of -
the Christian erd;I:was fascinated; and)
théni-partly: confused’ by the article in

the Jan. 8 issue of your paper's Pulpit
and Pew authored by Rev. Harvey Self
of the Grace Presbyterian Church.

“It dealt with Christmas, its origin :
cand how it is. misinterpreted: and

Tam in full accord with the message

of hope the birth of Jesus brought to .-
the world, but the brief explanations

by Rev. Self about the divisions of the
“Christian Year" or “Christian New
Year” from the “Solar New Year”
brought to my attention something not
known to me before. = |, x

In.contrast to the Jan. 1 date which
is based on the solar system, the Rev.
has introduced Nov.’ 29 as the be-
ginning of the Christian year. -

“In our present system, Christmas

and New Year are only one week apart, *
‘which is not that much of a spread,

allowing, as some theorists explain, for
news of the marvelous birth to get
around. | ‘

But between Nov. 29 and Jan. 1

_there is more than a month's spread,

presenting a puzzle which is, to me,
quite disconcerting.

If there are positive indications in
the Scriptures about Nov. 29 being the

curious fo know ‘why is it not being so
observed by the thousands of Christian

churches and the millions of Christian

- HEART MONTH

’ “his year in Canada over 80,000

Canadians will die from heart and blood
vepsel disease — more than 50,000 from
heart attack and 16,000 from stroke’
while the rest will die from other types
of heart disease. That is not a pleasant
thought. A : ;
Although research. has brought
about dramatic advances, in: diagnosis
and treatment, we still do not know the
means of preventing heart attack and

_ stroke. However, identification of the

risk factors and other information has
given us a key to reduction of the'risk
of heart attack and stroke, and thus
reduction of premature death and
disability. : Pam

In spite of efforis over 25 yeara to,
make all Canadians aware of the risk
factors and the early warning signals of
heart attack and ‘atroke, the rate of
death from these major killers contin-
ues at an appalling level. More than
half of all heart attack: victims die .
before reaching hospital where’. they
would have a greatly increased chance
of survival. These deaths usually occur
within two hours of the initial sym-

‘ptoms. Delay spells danger. Minutes

count, especially the first few minutes
when heart attack or stroke strikes.

Throughout Canada, the Heart Foun-
dations have been conducting pro-
grams emphasizing the need to know
the. warning symptoms of heart attack
and stroke and the necessity of taking
inimediate action should they occur. In
addition, thousands of Canadians have
been taught cardiopulmonary, resusci-
tation techniques. As a result, many
Canadians who would otherwise have
died before. reaching hospital have’
been given a much greater chance of
life. : i
