The author of the foIIpwihg
article wräs one pf the grbup öf
over 50 ypting Canadians tö at-tend
the WarsawYputh Festival.
' Slie was one of the group bf seveh
Canadiahs who äfter the festival
were invited to visit the Soviet
^ Unlon^ Aiiita^^^H^ wiio is re-presehting
young Finnish-Cana-diahs,
was also a member of thiä
grbup.'':..
(Do Soviet youth live on the farm
: br db they migrate to the city as
sopn- as they grow. up? If they
stay^^' do they feel economically ;se-cure?;
are the educatidnal aiid
recreätiohal opportunities for rural
youth? What young persph from
Canjftda and particiilarly from a western
*tjrovlnce.would not be pronipted
to ask theisequestlons and many more
in rCgard to rural life? One of my
lirst requests, therefore, wheni we
reacRed the Soviet Union was that
we visit a coUective f arm.
My.-, first questlbn was answered
shörtly after we arrived at the f arm,
situated about 100 kilometres from
K i e y l n the Ukralne. We were taken
around and the nuinber of young
. pepiile working at yariöus tasks was
astonishing. Furthermore, they ap-peared
tp be very interested In their
work, even i f It was a Job like looik-
»ing after the pigs.
. This farm, which is quite an aver-age
cbllectlve farm, has various
undeirtaklngs. They grow cereal
grains, vegetables; they have a fruit
orchärd, and they also breedcattle.
sheep, and poultJTr. The work is
diverse and pieopie usually: have a
certain respohsibllity, but they also
help Olit i n other:task5when their
help-is needed. Päyment for scrvlces
is .niade i n cash and products ac-cprding
to the number of worklng
days ian indivldual contributed. Last
year,, the average number of days
contributed by eachworking member
of the farm wasbetween 250 and
; 300 days.
Not äU of the young peopie.living
and wprking on this farm are engaged
in agriculture as a livelihpod. For
example, we spoke to a girl of 20,
Galina Tokarettkb,who is studyihg to
be a teacher. She also works as a
Pioneer children's group leader in
ihe School on this farm. Herc
.slie helps to organlze the study of
the' pupils, as well as their spare
tlme actiivtty, which corisists of. a
number of - circles such as dahcing
singing, and excursions to Kiev. G a lina
Studies her cpurse " by herself
and takes hei- exains in Kie v. Wheri
she is not busy, she helps but with
the farm work.
We asked her about oppiortunities
for young people w4io want
gb on to a hlgher education.^ ^ She
replied: ''Any young persori here Is
entirely free and ha;s the bpportunity
to. either work In the city or taJce
a university or technical schcoling
if he does hpt wänt to remairi on
the farm. That is why I.am studying
and wbrking here. I want, tp devbte
ali my life tp teaching, but I prefer
to live on the farm. .1 was born in
the city bf kiev, but I came here
because 1 like liylng on this farm
very much."
Probf of her last statemcnt; was
the manner In whlch she spoke of
her work, study ahd activities.
Later we ivislted a cottage where
ah elderly widow llyed. She proudly
showed lis photographs of her c h l l d -
ren, ali of whom were university
graduates. ;We also had i n our com'^
pany a young; fellow wlio had rccently
graduated and wäs now back bn the
farm working as a botanlst.
We were pleased with the lafge
building which is the clubhouse of
the collective farm.' Here movies are
shown four tlmes a week; activity
circles meet, and performances are
of ten glven by Kiev artists. The
collective also has many organized
spbrts activities, including . Its own
football and vplleyball teams,
Then we w€nt Into the school,
which is a public and a high school.
Here 420 piupils; attend classes and
are taught by 23 teachers — thafs
a,bout one teacher for every 18 pupils!
A l i of the teacher,"; have a high
level ot education. Secondary schcoling
is compulsorj- SO that each young
person graduates from high school.
A small fee is chai-ged for high
school education, but_if for some
reason |t is not possible to make this
payment, the student is allowed; to
attend in any case. Textbooks are
loaned for the year f ree of. charge.
Similarij-, lack bf funds Is ho prob-lem

GREAT< SACRIflCES
; 'We,frora.Canada perhaps felt that
w.e had sacrificed certain things to
come to the festiyal, but having dis-cussed
problenis wlth other young
people, we were ashamed of ourselves.
We had sacrlficed nothing cbmpared
to many others. . A young woman
from Pbrtugal told us hbw her dele-r.
gation had come to the festival. The
governmeat had refused them pass-pcrts,
SO they häd stoleri across the
border individually and in various dis-guises,
not coming together until they
pare for our national concert. Our
group was composed • of 38 yoimg
people from various parts of Canada,
representing many walks of life. With
the exception of the Ukrainian dance
group from Toronto, the majorlty bf
us had never worked together before.
It seemed a bit difficult at first to
get the ball rolling. Sometimes some
highly inspired indivldual would get
carried away with himself and take
over the job of the director. .
The crew of the ship was yery Im-pressed
wlth our rehearsals and we
were asked by the ship*s hostess to
participate in their talent night. The
girls ' sang "We'll Rant and We'll
Roar" ahd Joe Wallace*s "Making
Hay" and the Ukrainian dancers performed.
The grbup was presented
with SS Homeric scarves and Iittle
dolls as souvenirs. .
F A M I L Y INCREASES
I n Paris our family increased. In
fabt it kept Increasing sb that by the
tlme we got to Warsaw we had fifty-two
members i n our delegätion.
Every spare mbment was spent on
rehearsals. The Festival Commlttee
In Warsaw gaye us every possible asr
sUll^hce; Our major luroblem was that
nobody seemed to know where the
stage was Where we were to perform.
Dozens pf out-door, stages had . been
buiit i n iparks; and squares especially
for the festival. ,
On the openlng night of our fir^t
performance we were ali a' bundle of
nerves. A few rainutes before curtatn
time a very young man walked up to
me and announced that he wa8 going
to be our interpreter. • I t turned out
that he not only interpreted my nar-ration
but really rooted for us. :
THE CANADIAN CONCERT "
Our first hunvber was "O' Lovely
Land" sung by the chorus with Fyäna
Gruber of Toronto as soloist. Such
numbers as Robert Service's poem
"Michael" sung by Natalie Aksaniuk
(our delegätion choir director) from
Sudbury to music by Sam Goldberg
of Toronto, were warmly received. The
Ukrainian dancers performed their
folk-dance. Claire Morris from
Montreal had taught a French-Can-
Häy" with a öquare-dance to accom-pany
the inass singing.
RED FACES
At each of bur three performances
we had warm and sympathetic au-diences.
It was heart wärmlng to feel
that OUT efforts were truly being a p -
'preciated. The af temoon bf our f inal
perfbrmance we put our best loot f o r -
ward. We had the honour of per-forming
i n the Youth Theatre of the
Palace of Culture. Every delegate
sensed the importance of this performance.
It was our first experience
with lightlhg and using the slldes
Oscar Ornstelh had prepared for us.
Everything went off: well. George
Rega handled the Intricate system of
lights, lpwerlng of the screen and
projecting of the slides,: quite syste-matically.
Little errors went imno^
ticed, and only Michael Omelchuk was
caiight on the stage with an annload
of props when the lights went oa.
When i t was a l i over we presented
our harassed pianist with a gift from
the grbup. He had worked patlently
with us for two weeks. Our interpreter
(whp turned out to be a drama
student) was also presented with a
small gift. He h a d literaliy grown pn
us, having given us assistance and
moral support when we most needed
it. And SO ended my directors role at
the festival. It had been a tremen-dpus
experience for a l i . of us; The
lessoas we have learned, I am certain,
wili be inyaluablem the future when
we go bad£ to our various clties and
towns i n Canada.

• B Y B I L L JAMES
Vancouver. — I lyas visiting In V i c toria
in April of 1953 .when I was first
introduced to the theories of Social
Credit by a Social Credit Organizer.
This was my first encounter wlth poli-tical
philosophy and to put it bluntly,
I swallowed the Socred line "hook,
line and sinker."
Shortly after my return to. V a n couver
I contacted a Social Credit
Organizer and Socred candidates who
were campalgning In the provincial
elections. With the suppbrt of these
men I formed a Social Credit youth
group in East Vancouver. It is obvious
to me now that I was used for the

as are the Instruments which are
also loaned to the pupils. This school
is provided as a service to the collective
farm with ali expenses of the
school being paid not by the farm,
but by State.
We ended our visit to the farm
with a delicious meal in the orchard.
Although it is a busy season on the
farm, a group of people — young
and Old — found time to join us
and to spend several hours singing
and dancing with us. I don't think
that we wiU ever. foiket" their friend-llness,
and above afl! wiiat was ex-pressed
in their faces and in their
singing — conrfidence, happiness, and
the desire to live in peace Jsb that

express purpose of acquiring publicity
for the Socred candidates.
Around this time 1 met many members
of the National Federation -of
Labor Youth and discovered tb my
astonishment that thby were isincere
and resolute in their beliefs and ac-tipns.
However, I was convinced that
they were a menace to society, and
in speeches at two Socred public meet-ings
during the campaign, I attacked
the NFLY and the youth paper
"Champion."
In June bf the same year an inter-view
was arranged for me with the
editor of a Vancouver daily newspä-per.
The following morning a front
page articie appeared in this paper
quoting me as branding the National
Federation of Labor Youth as a com-munist
youth organization. The i n -
terview was arranged it Is true, but
the red bäitlng business was my own
bright idea. I wanted publicity, r e -
cognition, acclalm and I got i t : the
publicity of a prejudiced, pärtisan
press, the recognition of political
stooges and opportunists, the acclalm
of ali those who desire to see move-ments
bf the people destroyed. When
the truth began to burst through the
clouds of prejudice and ignorance in
my mind I knew that I wbuld long
regret What I had done.
During June of 1953 and the follow-ing
summer I had a ringside seat to
wätch the play "struggle for political
power in B.C." In bpth Victoria and
Vancouver I saw the sincere though
mislead organlzers and campaigners
who paved the way for the Socred
victory in the 1952 election, and who
wpuld not become "Bennet stooges,"
uprooted and repläced by an army of
political opportunists after a few
mohths qf cesspool political manouv
ering. I saw Social Crediters purged
from membership because they dared
to stand up against the rule of "top
rank" Socred politiclans and Champion
the cause of dismlssed clvil ser-vants.
I learned how political meet-irigs
were "plugged" i n order to effect
the election of a "select" official. In
Short, I witnessed the methods by
which decentralized, Independent
groups are brought neatly imder the
thumbs of a handful of men.
I n this same summer I became i n -
creasingly friendly with. Vancouver
NFLYers. To my amazement they
exhibited no sign of contempt toward
me for my having red-balted i n the
press. We discussed the posslbllities
of the N F L Y and the Social Credit
youth co-operating on certain issues
such as peace and a Canadian flag.
I could .see no reason why relation-shlps
which .wpuld advance causes
supported by both clubs should not be
developed. For a while I advocated
this policy and I soon found myself
wIthout any support whatever from
the Socred moyement.
I remembered the policles, actions
and objectlves of the N F L Y . The
poHcy.of the N F L Y since Its inception
has. been one of furthering the best
interests of ali Canadian youth re-gardless
of race, sex, national origin
or religlous belief.
It is my conviction that the National
Federation of Labor Youth Is the only
Canadian youth organization whlch
represents a l i Canadian youth f Ighting
for a better way of life;' For the abbve
reasons I am proud to take my place
in the ranksof these f ighting youth..

The unfortunate pärt of it is that
advertising space is bought by' busi-r-
essmen,-who through their advertising
i n this commerciallzed world äre
able tp sell.a greater amount of goods
or services. As ridiculous as i t may
seem, 'although the working people
comprise the biggest section of the
clientele of most: businesses, many
businessmen close their' eyes to the
fact and refuse to advertise in papers
which are latoalled; as ^ labor" jpapers,
Are labor papers necessary? If
one would ask the Finnish people of
Canada whether the Vapaus was necessary
pr ript, they would get an
emphatic ."yes". For äimost 38 years
the Finnish pebple of Canada have
unwaverlngly supported their . pwn
paper and have stood behind i t even
during difficult periods suchi as tiie
1930's and :the eariy war years.:
Probably the. sixnplest way to ex-pläin
the reason for such staunch
isuppbrt is again the question of
fkdvertising. • It will stand to reäsori
that i f the main income of a daily
comes from the advertising of busi-ressmen
and particularly big busl-ress,
the paper will have to reflect
the desires of this section of the
population, otherwise no advertising
and no prpfits, which m a short time
will mean no paper. Because the
cwners of big dailies are primarly i n terested
i n profits they find it most
practical and profitable to follow the
strongest currents i r i the local business
World.
It is not surprising that the big
dailies wih speak eloquently of management
and laud businessmen but
can find no sympathy for the der
mand of workers, no matter how jus-tifled
and obvious they may be. Did
you ever hear of a big daily support-ing
a strike or calling for contri-butions
to aid a strike br a h Import-ant
community project undertaken by
a union? Of course nbt, it 'just
doesn't happen.
. That Is where the labor press comes
hi. It Is quite obvious that only a
newspaper .owned and contröUed by
the working people themselves can
and wlll work for the interests of
the people. Despite the many weäk-aesses
of the Canadian labor press,
it is the only source of rellable i n -
formation on domestic and, international
matters, f&nd Canadian work-ihg
people realizing this have for
years maihtained a labor. press in
this country that we can he proud of.

Over great areas of the World —
notably i n Westem Canada — there
is walting to be tapped almost limit-less
energy of strong winds blowing
day and night. Scientlsts of USSR
Power Institute have developed two
practical new answers to the long
bafflihg probiem. Even In the most
favorable pläces, the wlnd Isn't istea-dy.
Storing its power in electric bat-terles
is yery cpstly (except on small
scale). Here are the latest solutions.
At the Taichlnsky Machine and
Tractor Station, i n northern Kaskh-stah
they use a new. design of very
heavy flywheel, combined with an i n -
genious "clutch". In Kazäkhstan,
wlnd rarely dies down.
If the wlnd does die down stored
power i n the flywheel keeps genera-tbrs
going. ,

power, on the average, day and night,

of engineer Protopopov. Wind

tank of water. This 40,000 watt "boi-ler"
will supply very hot water for ali
the needs of a farm -vllläge. One outfit

By MAT ÖBNIAK The author of the foIIpwihg article wräs one pf the grbup öf over 50 ypting Canadians tö at-tend the WarsawYputh Festival. ' Slie was one of the group bf seveh Canadiahs who äfter the festival were invited to visit the Soviet ^ Unlon^ Aiiita^^^H^ wiio is re-presehting young Finnish-Cana-diahs, was also a member of thiä grbup.'':.. (Do Soviet youth live on the farm : br db they migrate to the city as sopn- as they grow. up? If they stay^^' do they feel economically ;se-cure?; are the educatidnal aiid recreätiohal opportunities for rural youth? What young persph from Canjftda and particiilarly from a western *tjrovlnce.would not be pronipted to ask theisequestlons and many more in rCgard to rural life? One of my lirst requests, therefore, wheni we reacRed the Soviet Union was that we visit a coUective f arm. My.-, first questlbn was answered shörtly after we arrived at the f arm, situated about 100 kilometres from K i e y l n the Ukralne. We were taken around and the nuinber of young . pepiile working at yariöus tasks was astonishing. Furthermore, they ap-peared tp be very interested In their work, even i f It was a Job like looik- »ing after the pigs. . This farm, which is quite an aver-age cbllectlve farm, has various undeirtaklngs. They grow cereal grains, vegetables; they have a fruit orchärd, and they also breedcattle. sheep, and poultJTr. The work is diverse and pieopie usually: have a certain respohsibllity, but they also help Olit i n other:task5when their help-is needed. Päyment for scrvlces is .niade i n cash and products ac-cprding to the number of worklng days ian indivldual contributed. Last year,, the average number of days contributed by eachworking member of the farm wasbetween 250 and ; 300 days. Not äU of the young peopie.living and wprking on this farm are engaged in agriculture as a livelihpod. For example, we spoke to a girl of 20, Galina Tokarettkb,who is studyihg to be a teacher. She also works as a Pioneer children's group leader in ihe School on this farm. Herc .slie helps to organlze the study of the' pupils, as well as their spare tlme actiivtty, which corisists of. a number of - circles such as dahcing singing, and excursions to Kiev. G a lina Studies her cpurse " by herself and takes hei- exains in Kie v. Wheri she is not busy, she helps but with the farm work. We asked her about oppiortunities for young people w4io want gb on to a hlgher education.^ ^ She replied: ''Any young persori here Is entirely free and ha;s the bpportunity to. either work In the city or taJce a university or technical schcoling if he does hpt wänt to remairi on the farm. That is why I.am studying and wbrking here. I want, tp devbte ali my life tp teaching, but I prefer to live on the farm. .1 was born in the city bf kiev, but I came here because 1 like liylng on this farm very much." Probf of her last statemcnt; was the manner In whlch she spoke of her work, study ahd activities. Later we ivislted a cottage where ah elderly widow llyed. She proudly showed lis photographs of her c h l l d - ren, ali of whom were university graduates. ;We also had i n our com'^ pany a young; fellow wlio had rccently graduated and wäs now back bn the farm working as a botanlst. We were pleased with the lafge building which is the clubhouse of the collective farm.' Here movies are shown four tlmes a week; activity circles meet, and performances are of ten glven by Kiev artists. The collective also has many organized spbrts activities, including . Its own football and vplleyball teams, Then we w€nt Into the school, which is a public and a high school. Here 420 piupils; attend classes and are taught by 23 teachers — thafs a,bout one teacher for every 18 pupils! A l i of the teacher,"; have a high level ot education. Secondary schcoling is compulsorj- SO that each young person graduates from high school. A small fee is chai-ged for high school education, but_if for some reason |t is not possible to make this payment, the student is allowed; to attend in any case. Textbooks are loaned for the year f ree of. charge. Similarij-, lack bf funds Is ho prob-lem for university students. While on the subject of schools, our hiast surprising discQvery was a music school on the farm. Children tlme. The twpweekswere just seeth- I ing wlth excitement.

One of the Soviet concerfcs was held at the Guardia Stadium and the police had" to hold back the crowds who cbuld hbt be accommbdated.

GREAT< SACRIflCES ; 'We,frora.Canada perhaps felt that w.e had sacrificed certain things to come to the festiyal, but having dis-cussed problenis wlth other young people, we were ashamed of ourselves. We had sacrlficed nothing cbmpared to many others. . A young woman from Pbrtugal told us hbw her dele-r. gation had come to the festival. The governmeat had refused them pass-pcrts, SO they häd stoleri across the border individually and in various dis-guises, not coming together until they pare for our national concert. Our group was composed • of 38 yoimg people from various parts of Canada, representing many walks of life. With the exception of the Ukrainian dance group from Toronto, the majorlty bf us had never worked together before. It seemed a bit difficult at first to get the ball rolling. Sometimes some highly inspired indivldual would get carried away with himself and take over the job of the director. . The crew of the ship was yery Im-pressed wlth our rehearsals and we were asked by the ship*s hostess to participate in their talent night. The girls ' sang "We'll Rant and We'll Roar" ahd Joe Wallace*s "Making Hay" and the Ukrainian dancers performed. The grbup was presented with SS Homeric scarves and Iittle dolls as souvenirs. . F A M I L Y INCREASES I n Paris our family increased. In fabt it kept Increasing sb that by the tlme we got to Warsaw we had fifty-two members i n our delegätion. Every spare mbment was spent on rehearsals. The Festival Commlttee In Warsaw gaye us every possible asr sUll^hce; Our major luroblem was that nobody seemed to know where the stage was Where we were to perform. Dozens pf out-door, stages had . been buiit i n iparks; and squares especially for the festival. , On the openlng night of our fir^t performance we were ali a' bundle of nerves. A few rainutes before curtatn time a very young man walked up to me and announced that he wa8 going to be our interpreter. • I t turned out that he not only interpreted my nar-ration but really rooted for us. : THE CANADIAN CONCERT " Our first hunvber was "O' Lovely Land" sung by the chorus with Fyäna Gruber of Toronto as soloist. Such numbers as Robert Service's poem "Michael" sung by Natalie Aksaniuk (our delegätion choir director) from Sudbury to music by Sam Goldberg of Toronto, were warmly received. The Ukrainian dancers performed their folk-dance. Claire Morris from Montreal had taught a French-Can- Häy" with a öquare-dance to accom-pany the inass singing. RED FACES At each of bur three performances we had warm and sympathetic au-diences. It was heart wärmlng to feel that OUT efforts were truly being a p - 'preciated. The af temoon bf our f inal perfbrmance we put our best loot f o r - ward. We had the honour of per-forming i n the Youth Theatre of the Palace of Culture. Every delegate sensed the importance of this performance. It was our first experience with lightlhg and using the slldes Oscar Ornstelh had prepared for us. Everything went off: well. George Rega handled the Intricate system of lights, lpwerlng of the screen and projecting of the slides,: quite syste-matically. Little errors went imno^ ticed, and only Michael Omelchuk was caiight on the stage with an annload of props when the lights went oa. When i t was a l i over we presented our harassed pianist with a gift from the grbup. He had worked patlently with us for two weeks. Our interpreter (whp turned out to be a drama student) was also presented with a small gift. He h a d literaliy grown pn us, having given us assistance and moral support when we most needed it. And SO ended my directors role at the festival. It had been a tremen-dpus experience for a l i . of us; The lessoas we have learned, I am certain, wili be inyaluablem the future when we go bad£ to our various clties and towns i n Canada.

This was my first encounter wlth poli-tical philosophy and to put it bluntly, I swallowed the Socred line "hook, line and sinker." Shortly after my return to. V a n couver I contacted a Social Credit Organizer and Socred candidates who were campalgning In the provincial elections. With the suppbrt of these men I formed a Social Credit youth group in East Vancouver. It is obvious to me now that I was used for the are taught to play various musical Instruments under the guidance of six qualified teachers. Tuition is f ree as are the Instruments which are also loaned to the pupils. This school is provided as a service to the collective farm with ali expenses of the school being paid not by the farm, but by State. We ended our visit to the farm with a delicious meal in the orchard. Although it is a busy season on the farm, a group of people — young and Old — found time to join us and to spend several hours singing and dancing with us. I don't think that we wiU ever. foiket" their friend-llness, and above afl! wiiat was ex-pressed in their faces and in their singing — conrfidence, happiness, and the desire to live in peace Jsb that thclr life will cqn|;^u(j, to 'flourlsh and become rlcher •«Very year. express purpose of acquiring publicity for the Socred candidates. Around this time 1 met many members of the National Federation -of Labor Youth and discovered tb my astonishment that thby were isincere and resolute in their beliefs and ac-tipns. However, I was convinced that they were a menace to society, and in speeches at two Socred public meet-ings during the campaign, I attacked the NFLY and the youth paper "Champion." In June bf the same year an inter-view was arranged for me with the editor of a Vancouver daily newspä-per. The following morning a front page articie appeared in this paper quoting me as branding the National Federation of Labor Youth as a com-munist youth organization. The i n - terview was arranged it Is true, but the red bäitlng business was my own bright idea. I wanted publicity, r e - cognition, acclalm and I got i t : the publicity of a prejudiced, pärtisan press, the recognition of political stooges and opportunists, the acclalm of ali those who desire to see move-ments bf the people destroyed. When the truth began to burst through the clouds of prejudice and ignorance in my mind I knew that I wbuld long regret What I had done. During June of 1953 and the follow-ing summer I had a ringside seat to wätch the play "struggle for political power in B.C." In bpth Victoria and Vancouver I saw the sincere though mislead organlzers and campaigners who paved the way for the Socred victory in the 1952 election, and who wpuld not become "Bennet stooges," uprooted and repläced by an army of political opportunists after a few mohths qf cesspool political manouv ering. I saw Social Crediters purged from membership because they dared to stand up against the rule of "top rank" Socred politiclans and Champion the cause of dismlssed clvil ser-vants. I learned how political meet-irigs were "plugged" i n order to effect the election of a "select" official. In Short, I witnessed the methods by which decentralized, Independent groups are brought neatly imder the thumbs of a handful of men. I n this same summer I became i n - creasingly friendly with. Vancouver NFLYers. To my amazement they exhibited no sign of contempt toward me for my having red-balted i n the press. We discussed the posslbllities of the N F L Y and the Social Credit youth co-operating on certain issues such as peace and a Canadian flag. I could .see no reason why relation-shlps which .wpuld advance causes supported by both clubs should not be developed. For a while I advocated this policy and I soon found myself wIthout any support whatever from the Socred moyement. I remembered the policles, actions and objectlves of the N F L Y . The poHcy.of the N F L Y since Its inception has. been one of furthering the best interests of ali Canadian youth re-gardless of race, sex, national origin or religlous belief. It is my conviction that the National Federation of Labor Youth Is the only Canadian youth organization whlch represents a l i Canadian youth f Ighting for a better way of life;' For the abbve reasons I am proud to take my place in the ranksof these f ighting youth.. after page of ädvertlsing and a whole section devbted to classified ädvertlsing. . • The unfortunate pärt of it is that advertising space is bought by' busi-r- essmen,-who through their advertising i n this commerciallzed world äre able tp sell.a greater amount of goods or services. As ridiculous as i t may seem, 'although the working people comprise the biggest section of the clientele of most: businesses, many businessmen close their' eyes to the fact and refuse to advertise in papers which are latoalled; as ^ labor" jpapers, Are labor papers necessary? If one would ask the Finnish people of Canada whether the Vapaus was necessary pr ript, they would get an emphatic ."yes". For äimost 38 years the Finnish pebple of Canada have unwaverlngly supported their . pwn paper and have stood behind i t even during difficult periods suchi as tiie 1930's and :the eariy war years.: Probably the. sixnplest way to ex-pläin the reason for such staunch isuppbrt is again the question of fkdvertising. • It will stand to reäsori that i f the main income of a daily comes from the advertising of busi-ressmen and particularly big busl-ress, the paper will have to reflect the desires of this section of the population, otherwise no advertising and no prpfits, which m a short time will mean no paper. Because the cwners of big dailies are primarly i n terested i n profits they find it most practical and profitable to follow the strongest currents i r i the local business World. It is not surprising that the big dailies wih speak eloquently of management and laud businessmen but can find no sympathy for the der mand of workers, no matter how jus-tifled and obvious they may be. Did you ever hear of a big daily support-ing a strike or calling for contri-butions to aid a strike br a h Import-ant community project undertaken by a union? Of course nbt, it 'just doesn't happen. . That Is where the labor press comes hi. It Is quite obvious that only a newspaper .owned and contröUed by the working people themselves can and wlll work for the interests of the people. Despite the many weäk-aesses of the Canadian labor press, it is the only source of rellable i n - formation on domestic and, international matters, f&nd Canadian work-ihg people realizing this have for years maihtained a labor. press in this country that we can he proud of.
