address delivered by mr murray cotterill public relations officer ior the united steel workers of america and a mem bcr of the religion and labour foundation mr cotterill s pres ence at the luncheon had grown out of a concern on the part of the ministerial in regard to the attitude of the protestant church to organized labour ifc had been felt over the years that the rela heirship between the two was of a very flimsy and sometime anta gonistic nature out of this con ccrn grew a strong desire to meel with and speak to a christian man who war deeply involved in thi trade union movement mr murray cotterill was such a man for his background was one of energetic christianity having been reared in the methodist church and eventually assuming a posi tion on one of the committees of the united church of canada labour relations and at one time being superintendent of the sun day school at kunbourne park united church toronto mr cotterill outlined the history of the union movement stressing its roots in great britain dunng the industrial revolution of the 18th century the speaker differ entiated between the british type of union and those found on the continent especially in france and germany mr cotterill said the british unions were organized as protective societies and reccivea a great deal of their impetus from the methodist revival which swept england in the dajs of john and charles wesley thus the british tjpe union which has its counter part in ganada is the only union movement that was really moti vated from a religious root tlu protestant churches and their leaders were largel made up o land owners factory owners gtntrj men of means and this had in the course of years if j to a rather down glancing a- far as labour unions were con cerned mr cotterill deplored
