LABORBEAT By GORDON MITCHELL Oshawa Times Labor Reporter UNITED AUTO WORKERS members are being mobilized to do battle against water pol- lution in the Great Lakes. UAW men from Ontario and several states in the U.S. will meet this weekend in Detroit to discuss ways and means of combatting the increasing pol- lution of the lakes. UAW President Walter Reuther said that the purpose of the conference is to inform union members and the public of the pollution of the lakes, with emphasis on Lake Erie; To mobilize UAW members to fight water pollution and to secure effective action in their communities; To help co-ordinate the ef- forts of the UAW, other unions and groups in the fight for clean pater; and to encourage Canadian and U.S. govern- ment officials and industry leders to take necessary cor- rective and preventive action. U.S. Secretary of the In- terior Stewart Udall will. be one of the principal speakers at the one-day conference, as will Dr. James Vance, chair- man of the Ontario Water Re- sources Commission, and Pro- fessor G. B. Langford, direc- tor of the Great Lakes Insti- tute of the University of Toronto. However, no voice from Local 222, UAW, will be heard at the one-day conference. The International union has announced that everyone and anyone was invited to attend, but no one at Local 222 even heard about the conference. THE ONTARIO FEDERA- TION of Labor plans have been upset by the timing of the federal election, The date conflicts with that of the OFL convention this year, and the convention has had to take second place. As a result the OFL had to drop a political education con- ference scheduled for Nov, 7 at the Cleary Auditorium in Windsor. Instead the OFL delegates will meet there on Nov. 9 for the three-day con- vention. One of the communities best represented at the convention will be Oshawa -- with well over 50 delegates from city | union locals. © 'Comes To Farm Country By JOHN LeBLANC COBOURG, Ont. (CP)--Poli- tical glamor has been pitch- forked in tsrge chunks over the normally - humdrum back con- cessions of Northimberland constituency. Never until this federal election has the largely rustic riding on Lake Ontario glittered so in the national eye. And never has it provided a more intriguing -- and inscrut- able--electoral conundrum. The glamor has been dredged up in gobs around the personal- ities of Goerge Hees, making a return to the political wars for the first time since his drama- tic walkout from John Diefen- baker's cabinet in 1963, and Pauline Jewett, a personable The OFL meet, incidentally, | also clashed with the date for the November meeting of the Oshawa and District Labor Council -- it took third place and was set over for a week at the last meeting.
