Threaten Firsi Official Nursing Strike In B.C.

By MARTIN TAYLOR Canadian Press staff Writer

VANCOUVER iCP)-Almost soul

British Columbia nurses are threatening to stop work in Can- ada's first official nursing strike.

On Monday 53 nurses at Pestic- ion are due to stage the first of three threatened walkouts called in protest against refusal of hoe- pitals to grant wage increases ap- proved by oonetliatloa boards. The

ospltals say they do not receive enough money from the provincial government to pay the increases.

At New Westminster 215 nurses .employed by the Royal Columbian Hospital are to go on strike July 30. And 230 nurses at Vancouver's St. Pauils Hospital will hold an of- ficial strike vote Monday

The nurses have promised to maintain emergency services if the strikes take place. A small staff would be on duty for mater- nity. urgent surgery and accident cues and other nurses would be on call to augment it. But new patients for non-urgent operations would not be accepted.

MAIN POINT

Miss Evelyn Hood. personnel services director of the B.C. Reg- lstered Nurses Association. said Friday the main point at issue is whether arbitration recommenda- tions should be made binding on hospitals.

Other essential workers. such as policemen. firemen and school granted contracts in accordance with the findings of arbitration

boards. But although nurses agree 3 abide by the decision of a con- siiiation board. the hospitals can iignore them. she said.

' "Nurses are not the sort of peo- ple who like to go on strike. But we should lose all the ground we have covered if vie did not demand what has been recommended."

Nurses pay in B.C.. at 8230 to 32.51 a month. is higher than in mint provinces but lower than that of many untrained hospital order- lies and many commercial stenog- raphers -and other office workers. Miss llood said.

SET TARGET

The association has set a target of 8275 a ntonth as the minimum pay. It says teachers with the some length of training receive a minimum of 8300 a month.

Nurses at Penticton General Hospital agreed last week to post- pone their strlke one week to en- able a special three-man provin- cial government committee to ex- amine their grievances. The hos- pital board and the medical staff have supported the nurses" de- mands.

The board said it is unable to grant a recommended 318 increase in the present minimum of 8230 a month because it does not receive enough money from the B.C. health insurance service.

The provincial goveniment body. financed by a five-per-cent retail sales tax. pays most of the cost of hospital care for patients who

But lie sentries and planes are the only visible indication of Egyptian military strength. sched- uled to be shown In force next Tuesday when a milllnry parade will mark the fifth anniversary of the Egyptian revolution.

of the Aswan high dam on the Nile River.

Proponents of this view say pre- .sence of the UNI-SP between is- raeii and Egyptian forces on the Gaza Strip and in the Sinai area is to Nssser's advantage.

They point to recent indications of Nesser's desire for more nor- mal relations with some Western countries and contend that any announcement which could possibly inflame Western pas-ions is likely to be avoided.

Nasser is reported making des- perate efforts to escape danger- ously close economic ties with the loviet bloc hv restoring trade with Britain and France without giving way to any Western political de- msnds.

COMMUNIST! GET HALF

Current estimates are that half of what Egypt now sells abroad goes to the Communist countries, piling up credits unusable else- where. Egypt is buying arms, wheat. petroleum products and in- dustrial machinery with these fav- orable balances.

The Egyptian leader is also try- ing. without much apparent suc- cess to loosen the economic squeeze imposed by the freezing of his country's assets in die United States.

Evidence of his lack of success is the current hate-America cam- paign waged by Egypt's "Voice of the Arabs" radio and Cairn newspapers while attacks on Brit- ain and France have sexed.
