As those who attended the meeting know, the subject which received most discussion was the extent to which Communists have infiltrated into the UFAWU. This trend of proceedings brought some criticism on the grounds that the issue at flake was not politics but w hich union could do the most for fishermen's welfare. From the point of view that hard-headed fishermen have little time to concern themselves with political thrust and parry, the protest had some merit. The fishermen's first wish is to be assure! of a good Mving so that they and their families can be confident of comfort and security. . Preumably ii is also their hope that the industry a.4 a whole can be .kepi in a healthy state since anything less than' that will mean their good life is a temporary arrangement threatened at any minute with collapse. In this .particular case, however, it is fatuous to maintain that communism has nothing to do with the subject at hand. Regardless of how one may feel about this particular social philosophy, none can claim that it has gained popular acceptance in Canada. The aversion to it will surely react unfavorably on any organization which accepts its run u.euse evervv.ic.
