SAVE THEE OHlILDRiEN

The visit of Lady Johnson, Save the Children Fund representative in Pal-is. to a nursery school at Crolx. near Roubaix. is described in a letter received yesterday by the Canadian Committee oi the Save the Children Fund.

Lady Johnson writes: “Urgent help is need-ed in the way of bed- ding and clothes. linen and rest cots for 35 to 40 small children from two to six years. This home keeps children whose mothers are either sick or, having another child. Inmates are children of poor families; sometimes one gets abandoned. which creates a seri- ous problem for the Home. where there is no provision for aband- oned children. The house is clean and well-kept. but lacking in pro- Der equipment. Food is fairly adequate. but with no extras. sweets. chocolate. jam or butter. The main- lmimediate problem is shoes. warm clothes. aprons. un- derwear. They are wearing clogs. some torn. all roughly made and heavy. No canvas rest cots ior after lunch rest."

Visiting Beavry and Boussois. Lady Johnson suggested that the local medical authorities list the children in the district who were in urgent need of cod liver oil to supplement their diet.

y‘ offer was accepted with gratitude." Ladv Johnson writes.

Chief Justice J. C. McRuer is chairman of the committee and

headquarters oi the Save the Children .Fund (Canadian Oom- mittee) are at King Street.

The presence of the large num- ber of men at work in the strike- bolaid piant—the company puts the figures at 2.700 including executives and SUDEETVlSOTS-—IS probably the most unique feature of this altogether unusual strike. Another is that the strike was called against a government-con- trolied industry and that the con-

HANIILTON. July 22 -(CPl— ‘Phe steel strike front today took on s peaceful aspect as both union and management awaited the out- ‘come of hearings in Ottawa of the Commons Committee on Indust- rial Relations.

The United Steelworkers of America (C.I.O.) called the strike July 15 to enforce its demands for a minimum weekly wage of $33.60 in Canada's basic steel industry. Production at Algoma Steel Cor- poration at Sault Ste. Marie. Ont.. and at Dominion Steel and Coal Corporation at Sydney, N‘. 8.. has been halted but in Hamilton the Hamilton works of the Steel

trolier ordered production to be foontinued despite the strike act- n. No attempt is being made to run men or supplies through union picketlines and boats and planes

appear to be taking care of the supply problems adequately. Ob- servers here say they believe that from new on the situation may remain quiet until settlement is reached.

In his brief Mr. Hilton s id hi5 company was not opposed col- lective bargaining nor to the prin- clple of trade unions.

“We do, however, protest against the policy of coercion and violat- ion of the law which has prevail- ed since the C. 1.0. started oper- ations fostered by one-sided labor legislation ‘in the United States." The union had conducted “a constant campaign" disrupt good relations between the com- pany and its employees. A gov- ernment-conducted vote on May 8 had shown only 2.256 of the 4.868 employees to be members of the union.

Ln its negotiation for a new contract the union had insisted on deletion of a contract clause which would ban strikes for the duration of the contract and had refused to budge from its demands which would cost the company $3,360,000 a year. . 'l\he company's ofler of a IO-cen increase would. on the basis of a 48-hour week. give employees in the lower wage groups a higher weekly wage than the 19vz-cerlt increase sought by t union would provide for a 40-h week. Under the union plan workers in the top brackets would get a re- duction on a weekly basis.

The increase of $5-a-ton ln steel prices. approved by the Prices Board April l. was to compensate ior increases in production costs
