W. E. DENNING TALKS

TO VANCOUVER PAPER

The following, from the B. C.
Federationist (Vancouver), gives
a local coloring to the labor situ-
ation in this city. The writer evi-
dently makes.a mistake in the

 

 

Liberal nominee:

The local longshoremen’'s
strike, as the result of a reduction
of wages, which has spread
other ports along the Pacific
Coast, has resulted in a number
of union officials paying a visit to
Vancouver. Among them are In-
ternational President T. V. O’Con-
nor and officers of the Pacific
Coast District organization, in-
cluding W. E, Denning, of Prince
Rupert, upon whom a good deal
of the responsibility was placed
in this district of the organiza-
tion, and who has worked dili-
gently to bring about a settle-
ment. Mr. Dennings is aiso vice
president for the Prince Rupert
District of the B. C. Federation of
Labor, and an active unionist in
his home town. So much so that
he is being urged by friends to
return immediately where he will
be tendered a nomination on the
labor ticket to contest the riding
against Wm. Manson, the sifting
Conservative member, and A. M.
Manson, a lawyer and the Liberal
nominee. Just how to get away
from Vancouver at this stage of
the longshoremen’s trouble is the
thing that seems to be bothering
Mr. Denning, but he is hopeful
that a settlement will be reached
in time to make it possible for
him to meet the wishes of the
trade unionists of the northern
metropolis. If things break right
Mr. Denning will be a strong ac-
quisition to the number of Labor
representatives who will make a
try, when election day rolls
around, to secure an _ effective
means of strengthening the po-
sition of organized labor in this
corporation-ridden provinee.

DOCKERS IN KHAKI-—

KITCHENER’S WAY OUT

Lord Derby to Command the
Unique Battalion of Men
at Liverpool.

 

Liverpool, April 9.—Lord Derby
has announced that the govern-
ment is planning to organize the
dock workers of Liverpool, under
the name of First Dock Battalion
of the Liverpool Regiment. The
meu are to be dressed in khaki
overalls. This plan is to be
adopted to prevent further delays
in handling war supplies. Labor
trouble among the workers on the
Mersey recently has caused se-
rious embarrassment.

The battalion will be made up
of about 2,000 men, who will be
enlisted under the military law
with army pay, in addition to a
guaranteed minimum wage of 35
shillings weekly.

It is said that both shipowners
and union officials favor the plan.
The men are to enlist voluntarily,
with the stipulation that the bat-
talion will be for home service
only. Lord Derby will be in com-
mand of the regiment, Guaran-
tees will be given that the organ-
ization will ndt be used for strike-
breaking.

Norwich, Eng., April 9.—Publie
opinion here is so strongly in-
censed over the attitude of some
of the labor leaders on the war
that the Independent Labor party
was unable to secure a suitable
hall for a conference which had
recently been arranged.

The Girls’ Chapter of the I. 0
D. E. will hold a dance on Friday,
April 16, in St. Andrew's Hall. The
funds raised will be used for pa-
triotic purposes. 79-80
