PAGE TWELVE THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 20, 1940 G10. PRESIDENT WINS ANTI-PEACE MOVE AT MEETING (Continued from Page 1) to have informed Murray after Lewis had won his victory on labor peace that they would support him for the C.I1.O. leadership on his own terms. " During the debate on what policy the CIO. should follow on labor ity delegates from the Hiilman oup--the Amalgamated and Tex- Hie Workers Unions--demanded a united labor organization movement without, however surrendering the principles upon which» the CIO. for five years has waged its mili- tant campaign against the open ghop in modern industry. permission to change his plea in today's court. Police are looking for an accomp- lice in the fish stealing charge laid by Special Agent Fred Chapman of the Canadian National Railways. He was named by Hedger who stated that he and his companion had sold three boxes of the stolen fish, 75 pounds, to a fish and chips restaur- ant for seven dollars. Price of the fish wholesale was saidsjto be 12 cents a pound. Hedger was said to have stated that he and his' companion had spent the money they obtained for wine, tobacco and food. The accused declared that he is a painter and paper hanger by trade. Discovery of the theft was made at Toronto when the car bringing Lunenburg fish to that city was found to have its seals broken. In- quiry showed that the seals were in- tact at Belleville. The case was investigated by In- spector W. W. Dawn and Detective Sgt. Flintoff, "We want to explore the possibili- tiles of peace' declared Frank Rosenblum of the Clothing Work- ers. "and if we can get peace, we want it." Lewis rising to make a "few re- marks" said peace with the AF.L. was fine as "an academic proposi- tion" but that it was a waste of | time to continue exploring peace possibilities. In the course of his speech he suggested that any C.I.O. organiza- | tion that could not go along with the program, could leave and go back to the AFL. David Dubinsky of the Interna- tional Ladies Garment Workers Union. and Max Zaritsky of the Hatters Union, who helped found the C10. five years ago, "took the easy way," Lewis said, by going pack to the AFL. fold. "If there is anybody wants to take the easy them take it." He said Dubinsky was now crying out in the AF.L. against "the rack- eteers, the panders and the crooks in that organization," and his voice, else who way, let Lewis added, "laments like that of Rachel's in the wilderness." "And now above all the clamor, he added, "comes the piercing wail and laments of the Amalgamated Clothing Workers." Associates of the Amalgamated delegates reported the Hillman group was angry over Lewis's speech, but there was no likelihood they would bolt the convention.

He conceded that it was logical to assume on the basis of Mr. Conant's letter that comple- tion of the highway was contems= plated and consequently he believes that the committee will not find it necessary to organize gz delegation to Queen's Park.

Accused was represented by T. K. Creighton. Arrest was made at the accused's Reach Township home by .James Sutherland, MM, Whitby, and W. H. Clark, Oshawa, district provincial police. It was at that time they found a quantity of whiskey which had not been gold through Ontario Government liquor stores to the ac- cused, Mr. Sutherland, in giving tgsti- mony this morning, stated that beer in bottles had been found in a hide- away between kitchen and store room. Mi, Creighton, defence counsel, urged that the locatiofl of the beer, { which had been legally. purchased was a hide-away only in the witness | opinion. Constable Sutherland stated that he felt sure it was a hide-away since to tear out pact of the partition to find bottled goods.
