Trades unionists who are loyal to the international organization and who have little or no sym- pathy with the radical One Big Union movement wil] probably act within a few days towards bringing the B.

This execu- tive would assume many of the duties and responsibilities for- merly borne by the Federation prior to its control by the O. B. U. element and the return of its charter to the Trades and Labor Congress. In most of the prov- inces of Canada the executive form of organization has been adopted. The B. C. Federation was formed to secure a greater degree of self-autonomy. Now it has been “ditched” in favor of the O. B. U. by the extremist ring at present dominant. The convention of the B. C. Federation of Labor here this week may have created a wrong impression in the minds of some people as to the tendencies or organized labor in the province. The delegates, or the great ma- jority of them, belonged to the more extreme group of O. B. U. supporters. Conservative labor was hardly represented at all, be- cause many of the locals refused to send delegates to the conven- PAL ALL EE Ri Act Amendments price of first-class land et an acre; second-class to ption new confined to sur- only, ¥'!! be granted covering enly b. for agricultural purposes b io non-timber land yehip pre-emptions abolished, of not more than feur may fer adjacent pre-emptions fesidence, but each making improvements on respective & bptory must occupy claims for ind make improvements to $10 per acre, including clear- cultivation of at least t acres, tcelving Crown Grant Reemapter in occupation not 1 ¢ years, and has made pro- te Improvements, he may, be- ll-health, or other cause, be Intermediate certificate of im- nt and transfer his claim s without permanent Y be issued es improvements Snnum and records Sure to make improvements ame Will operate as for- tae cannot be obtained in ® years, and improvements ber acre. including 6 and Cultivated, and residence gang are required .

Ignored Convention: The gradual assumption of con- trol and manipulation of the B. ©. Federation by the radical forces which, at the Calgary convention last year, adopted resolutions commending sovietism and which, at the convention here reaflirmed this attitude, had the effect of creating widespread disaffection in labor circles. Many of the international locals, refusing to accept the O. B. U. standard and declining to have anything to do with the delegates who did sup- port this theory, decided to ignore the convention. The result was that the action taken and the speeches delivered during the convention could not fairly be taken as an indication of B. CG. labor's attitude on the issues of the day. The O. B. U, claims 1,000 mem- bers in Victoria, and many of these men also hold international cards, playing safe for the time being by straddling the fence. On the other hand, it is estimated that there are 6,000 international! trades unionists in the city, some of whom are temporarily absent owing to the cessation of ship- building operations and allied in- dustries. The opposition to the O. BU, in the ranks of Vietoria’s organized labor, «according to those in a good position to judge, is overwhelming. Some regard the O. B. U, as premature and Utopian, although all right in theory; others claim it has no good points at all and should be flatly turned down as being simply an outgrowth of red radicalisi. If it came to a showdown, it is estimated that union labor here would favor the international as against the One Big Union by a four-to-one vote. Want Charter Back. So far as can be ascertained, the most likely developrnent is the salling of a meeting of loyal in- ternational unionists with a view to perpetuating direct association with the Trades and Labor Con- gress vf Canada and the American Federation of Labor; The return of the charter surrendered by the Oo. B. U. dominated Federation will be asked, and the situation will be much the same as ever before, with the exception that the O. B. U., instead of disguising under a false name, will be openly operating in the provinee, sup- ported by a weekly newspaper with a circulation claimed to be 20,000. At the Victoria convention the fate of the B. C. Federationist was determined. In future it will be guided by the policy laid down by the directors of the new com- pany, composed of representa- tives of the various organizations afliliated with the O. B. U. It will be controlled by the O. B. U., and judging from speeches made at the convention, will cease to up- hold the international organiza- tion, as in the past- “\ CAMOUFLAGE KISS” AT EMPRESS THEATRE June Capnice, the girl who is like her name, will be seen to- night at the Empress Theatre in “A Camouflage Kiss,” one of the prettiest little comedy - dramas that has been here for many a day.
