ON
MEW
SHIP
CONTRACTS
A
picket
line
will
shortly
take
its
place
among
the
downtown
street
phenomena
of
Prince
Rupert.
Object
of
the
placard
carriers,
inspired
at
a
mee.tin.tr
of
the
"Jobs-For-All"
Association
Sunday-
nijjht,
will
be
to
solicit
public
support
for
the
need
f
or'clarification
of
the
shipbuilding
prospects,
of
..the
local
dry
dock.
If
the
plan
gets
sufficient
backing,
a
picket
line
complete
with
slogans
such
as
"Rumors
Don't
Butter
Bread"
will
take
its
place
in
front
of
Canadian
National
Railways
downtown
ticket
office
on
Saturday
afternoons
and.
at
the
Canadian
National
wharf
when
the
Prince
Rupert
docks
here.
Mrs.
J.
R.
Blakey,
who
acted
as
secretary
of
last
night's
"Jobs-For-All"
meeting,
made
the
picketing
motion
during
discussion
of
a
letter
from
Wartime
Housing
Ltd.,
Toronto,
which
concluded
with
the
sentence:
"It
is-rumored
that
jour
dock
yard
may
become
busy
again
and
that
unemployment
in
Piinrc
'Rupert
soon
may
become
a
thing
of
the
past."
Mrs.
Blakey
suggested
that
the
source
of
the
rumor
be
sought
out,
and
moved
that
the
association
start
picketing
the
Canadian
National
"premises
as
a
gesture
toward
that
objective.
The
meeting
of
15
members
endorsed
the
motion.
Attitude
of
other
labor
organizations
In
the
city
is
not
yet
known
but
at
least
two
union
delegates
supported
the
idea
in
principle.
Also
supported
was
a
move
to
organize
a
city-wide
jobs
conference
with
the
idea
of
sending
a
delegation
to
Victoria
to
seel;
action
at
the
next
session
of
the
Legislature
for
greater
use
of
Prince
Rupert's
port
and
shipbuilding
facilities.
The
Industrial
Development
Committee
will
be
contacted
as
will
the
city's
labor
organiza
tions.
Mrs.
Blakey
saw
the
city
-wide
conference
as
part
of
a
move
to
get
"the
whole
town
In
an
aggressive
struggle
for
Jobs
for
all."
"I
feel
that
the
provincial
government
can
wield
strong
influence
with
the
federal
authorities
In
behalf
of
industrial
ac
¬
tivity
in
this
province."
she
sad.
"Vancouver
Is
to
have
a
labor
lobby
at
the
forthcoming
session
of
the
legislature
and
I
think
that
Prince
Rupert
should
have
one
as
well."

of
the
meeting
