is
striking
proof
that
the
secret
ballot
is
the
only
way
a
worker
is
free
from
pressure
to
vote
for
or
against
strike
action.
Dominated
by
zvcll-d
rilled
Communis
t
minority,
French
Unions
zvere
ordered
to
no
out
on
strike
not
in
their
ozvn
interests,
but
in
the
interests
of
that
Communist
minority.
When
zvorkers
turned
to
thy
secret
ballot
to
determine
their
true
zvishes,
millions
zveni
back
to
zvork
against
the
orders
of
the
domineering
minority.
This
same
secret
ballot,
given,
to
British
Columbia
workers
by
"Bill
39",
(the
Industrial
Conciliation
and
Arbitration
Act,
1947)
is
violently
opposed
by
certain
labour
leaders.
They
give
no
plausible
reason
for
their
opposition.
The
only
conclusion
is
that
they
fear
that
their
grip
on
the
workers
of
British
Columbia
will
be
broken
by
the
secret
ballot
exactly
as
the
Communist
stranglehold
was
broken
in
France.
The
secret
ballot
established
by
"Bill
39"
is
the
worker's
"Bill
of
Rights"
because
it
protects
him
against
the
dictatorship
of
a
radical
minority.
