Pe SE PRN See Wows 20 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Wednesdey, Mey 22, 1963 abor College Opens : By KEN SMITH * MONTREAL (CP)---Canada's Labor College, a dream of the trade union movement for more' than 75 years, opens its doors June 3. ' The first college of its kind ém North America, it will offer warefully selected students chance to try to get some for- mal education they otherwise might never receive. » Its aim is to make the men from whom future labor lead- ers will be picked more aware of the complexities of the so- ciety they live and work in. Claude Jodoin, president of| Montreal. the Canadian Labor Congress which helped get the college es-| HOPE TO EXPAND tablished, says it will enable future union representatives to act with knowledge and effi- ciency in the many fields con- nected with labor work. About 90 students, picked from all across Canada, are ex- pected to attend the college's first term, lasting seven weeks. They will be given crash pro- grams in history, economics, political science, sociology and trade unionism, The work, in- cluding required reading and discussions groups, will take up 12 to 16 hours a day. PARTY IN FRENCH One aspect union officials are emphasizing is that the course will be bicultural. Classes will be conducted in French for about one-third of the total group. The first group of students was selected on the basis of past union work and an assess- ment by the college of who might profit most by the course. Several applicants had to be turned down to keep the group to a manageable size and they will get first consideration in selecting future groups. The students in the first group range from a 22-year-old com- parative newcomer to the field to a 52-year-old veteran of 34 years' union work. Most are married and are local union of- ficers. 4) unions, the scholarships will be June 3 Their expenses, estimated at an average of $1,300 each for tuition, books, transportation and lodging, are being paid by their unions. The college had planned to of- fer 10 scholarships of $1,000 each, but since all students in the first group are sponsored by saved and given to later groups. It was set up by the co-op- eration of Canada's two larg- est labor bodies, the CLC and the Confederation of National Trade Unions, and McGill Uni- versity and the University Lecturers in the various sub- jects are drawn from. the uni- versities' staffs. The college hopes to offer its courses to a minmum of 225 students during the next three years. The cost for the three- year period is estimated at! $240,000. Most of the financing has come from trade unions, al- though some donations have been received from private in- dividuals and corporations. If the first courses are suc- fessful, the college hopes event- ually to be able to offer. pro- |grams covering the normal |seven-month academic term. | The first recorded call for a labor college in Canada was made in 1886, at a meeting of the Knights of Labor Assem?ly in Toronto, In 1911 the Trades and Labor Congress approved a motion calling for a college. The present plans grew out of a motion adopted by the CLC in 1958. The program was dis- cussed with several universities before agreement was reached with McGill and U of M. Although labor colleges are new to North America, they have existed in Europe since the beginning of the century. Several also have been estab- lished, primarily through the work - of international labor bodies, in Africa, Central America and Asia. Court Questions PA From By ALAN WALKER TORONTO (CP)--An Ontario Supreme Court judgment handed down Tuesday questions the validity of a power of attor- mey allegedly signed behind the Tron Curtain. Frederick T. Watson, Onta- tio's official guardian of estates who for several years has been seeking federal intervention to protect Soviet heirs to Canadian estates, was elated. He said Mr. Justice Leo Lan- dreville's decision is the first step in crimping an "intricate plan of the Russan government to collect money supposedly on behalf of Russian heirs." Mr. Justice Landreville says fn his judgment he suspects documents in the estate case of Nicolaus Lewko who disap- peared in Toronto in 1936 and} bed declared legally dead in| "The issue in this case, re- volving as it does around a power of attorney which is "cer- tified to" in the year 1959 and executed within the Republic of Poland, begs being tested by viva voce evidence (personal testimony).

"Who in fact are the real heirs or next of kin of the de- ceased?" These are the questions that Mr. Watson says should be asked of every power of attor. fey purporting to have been Bigned in the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics or other 'Iron Curtain countries. » He considers the present situ- "ation, in which only one Cana- "dian is allowed by Russian law She soviet' an who are in . viet Union, should be echanged. 'BASED ON DOCUMENT « A 1959 document, signed by s"Amasasp Aroutunian, then So- viet ambassador to Canada, @tates: * "All claims and interests of Russia in particular, ters." Mr. Watson proposed a gov- ernment control agency which would be based on United States procedure. The U.S. gov- ernment was troubled by what was alleged to be Soviet manip- ulation of inheritances, in which it was said money supposedly going to heirs in the U.S.S.R. actually was being used to fi- nance Communist party opera- tions in the U.S. Then 10 years ago a section was written into the U.S, Treas- ury Act ruling that powers of attorney in estate cases, sup- posedly signed by persons be- hind the Iron Curtain, are ille- gal in the United States unless absolute proof is obtained that such persons have signed the documents willingly. TAXES ARE HEAVY Even if money reaches heirs in the Soviet Union, Mr. Wat- son believes Russian taxes can wipe out the whole legacy. This is mentioned in a recent Ontario Supreme Court judgment by Mr. Justice Campbell Grant, cited in Mr. Justice Landre- ville's judgment.
