Mr. Murray said that it ap- peared that the time had come for British Columbia labor leg- islation to be overhauled and “while the idea is net original, I suggest that a court of labor- relations be established.” He said he had had no time to prepare an address on Scouting but would speak on a subject close to everyone—-labor rela- tions—since “each and every one: of ws has been affected by the! developments of the past two: weeks.” At no time did he refer to any} company or union or mention the current strike of pulpwork- ers that has tied up the entire pulp and paper industry on the| Pacific coast, After tracing present labor legislation through certification, negotiation, conciliation officers and boards, strike votes, strikes and lockouts, he said: . “That means ‘cessation of pro- duction, with many persons af- fected and many innocent by- standers hurt, some of, whom “Had hie eohidetion with thé ine" a dustry. Involved."»* Mr. Murray said he thought it was time to take another look at “our labor legislation. “We must streamline it or start all over again. Strikes and lockouts are not the answer.” He said that the working man was entitled to bargain for the sale of his labor and he suggest- ed a court of labor-relations.as a means of solving labor-manage- ment disputes. “If we have family, civil or criminal troubles we take them to the courts of law,” Mr. Mur- ray said “We are satisfied that the British system of law ts just and ANNUAL MEETING SUCCESS © ‘e- not the solution to labor- management disputes, William H.
