LABOR
and
ELECTIONS
This
nation's
largest
lahor
orgnization,
the
Trades
and
Labor
Congress
of
Canada,
has
thrown
its
support
behind
the
return
of
the
King
Government.
In
a
letter
recently
released
for
publication,
its
Political
Action
Committee,
without
mentioning
the
name
of
the
party,
strongly
advised
the
350,000
members
of
its
various
unions
to
vote
and
work
for
re-election
of
the
present
administration.
The
unions
which
make
up
the
Trades
and
Labor
Congress
are
affiliated
with
the
American
Federation
of
Labor.
The
letter,
signed
by
the
Political
Action
Committee
chairman,
Ernest
Ingles,
London,
Ont.,
impliedly
declares
that
the
King
Government
can
be
trusted
to
implement
its
election
pledges
and
warns
against
putting
inexperienced
groups
into
power
at
this
time.
;
The
letter
says,
in
part,
as
follows:
,"We
have
now
reached
the
period
of
return
from,
wartime
to
peacetime
economy.
The
experience
gained
In
moving
from
peace
to
war,
will
prove
of
Incalculable
value
In
making
the
transition
from
war
to
peace.
During
the
period
from
peace
to
war,
certain
obligations
were
accepted
by
the
Government
as
to
what
will
be
the
procedure
when
the
time
arrives
to
go
forward
to
worthwhile
peacetime
economy.
The
value
of
these
pledges
Is
enhanced
by
the
fact
that
the
Administration
had
the
experience
of
going
through
the
war
period,
and
therefore,
they,
will
have
a
better
Idea
of
how
to
redeem
those
pledges
which
they
themselves
gave.
"We
are
placed
In
the
position
of
being
called
.
upon
to
determine
who
can
Implement
those
promises
best
those
who
know
the
reason
for
the
dislocation,
or
those
who'
could
only
guess
at
the
reason,
but
who
are
not
In
the
possession
of
facts
and
experience.
"Those
who
made
those
pledges;
must
be
given
the
opportunity
to
redeem
them.
They
are
charged
with
that
responsibility.
They
must
be
given
the
opportunity
of
keeping
faith
with
the
people
and
establish
a
peacetime
economy'
that
will
ensure
a
free,
full
and
happy
life.
"There
