Kooert Connell M.L.AM Leader of the Opposition in the Legislature, said here Friday, regarding the invitation to hear from those favoring a new organization, that this is not a proletarian or a class-struggle movement. It will have no connection with the C. C. F. whatever, either provincially or federally. It will remain true to basic principles laid down at the Regina convention and as further outlined by himself (Mr. Conncil) in the Legislature. "We have not yet decided on the name for the movement although the name 'Union for Democratic Control' has been suggested, said Mr. Connell. "We expect, to form a. party entirely distinct from the C. C. F. and one which we feel will have something to offer not just Iabor alone but all the people. Our next step is to prganize." Mr. Connell said there would be no candidate entered from the new party to contest the Burrard provincial by-election but time ..would be devoted to organization throughout the province instead. The basis of the new independent Socialist party would be reform within constitutional means. j FAILED IN HIS ESCAPE ! Man Who Knocked Office Voman uown ana ivan twin uw Tripped by Passerby .
