8. By a substantial increase in Canada's contributions to the Colombo Plan and United Nations' Technical Assistance.
9. By special measures to help depressed industries to get on their feet, and to help depressed areas, either by bringing industry to such areas or by helping workers to move to places where work is available.
Jenkins wasn't alone in his criticism of the resolution's timing.
AUTO INDUSTRY CRISIS
Windsor auto worker H. Kelly supported the statement but said it was "poor judgement to have it here in the dying moments of the convention." In his plant, he reported, there were no workers with less than 17V2 years seniority.
Another auto worker, C. Pi Iky argued that 500,000 unemployed meant loss of $170,000,000 annually in income tax which "could increase the old age pension to $75 with no increase in taxes."
He charged that "General Motors brass" collects $11 million in "wages" and bonuses with the president alone getting $201,-000 in "wages" and $351,000 in bonuses.
"Is this the type of prosperty Mr. Starr was referring to?" he asked. The situation, he said, was a "national disgrace."
Criticism of the committee was expressed by Orville Braaten, Pulp and Sulphite Workers, Vancouver, for not spelling out the 30 hour week as an objective.
"I hope Congress will go to the government and lay it on the line for a 30 hour week," he said. "The situation looks a lot different in the smokey factories than in this beautiful hall,"
Alex McAuslane, Oil and Chemical Workers, called for reduced working hours and higher wages. To critics who were trying to shut off debate he said, "It's plain to see the delegates here are not unemployed or they wouldn't be trying to end the debate."
Auto delegates were concerned over the big drop in exports of Canadian cars from 35 percent in 1938-39 to 3.2 percent last year. This, coupled with a jump in imports from 70,000 in 1957 to 153,900 last year, had created a crisis in the industry. Replying to a statement by the federal minister of labor, Canadian Auto Workers' Union director George Burt said, "I don't think the unemployed workers are convinced Canada has the highest standard of living. Private enterprise," he declared "is responsible for unemployment and should spend more time trying to solve

this issue than trying to have anti-labor legislation introduced."
Another delegate opposed "uncontrolled mmigration," charging the federal government with misleading prospective immigrants by painting a false picture of job opportunities.
DEFENDS COMMITTEE
CLC vice president William Mahoney, Canadian head of the Steelworkers Union, claimed "There has been a tactical effort by the Communist Party to delay this convention."
(The Steelworkers Union had the biggest single delegation at the convention made possible because the Union is broken up into scores of plant locals, each of them entitled to a delegate. The issue of fair representation was debated earlier during the convention with delegates pointing out some of the anomalies).
Mahoney claimed the committee had done a "constructive job" and said he didn't like "the inference there has been an effort to delay."
One delegate told this observei afterward that the executive, of which Mahoney is a vice-president, decides the order of business "and if economic policy was near the end of the agenda, that's the way the officers wanted it."
Mahoney said, in an obvious reference to Sam Jenkins, it was "not fair to the delegates to hear some demagogue confuse the convention.
"We'll put it (the economic program) into effect by putting our political action program into effect."
GRIM PROSPECT
But the story told by other delegates indicated the grim necessity of immediate action. A member of the Rubber Workers, S. Thorn ley of Toronto said that "in about four or five weeks, 200 workers with over 6,000 years of service and an average age of 52 are going to be looking for work." He told delegates that when Gutta Percha, the plant where he is employed, shuts down, "it will wipe out the only Canadian owned rubber industry."
He charged big business with
deliberately moving plants to
other parts of the world.
A member of the Canadian Brotherhood of Railway and Transport workers said that 700 members of his union had been laid off since January.
Bill Black, BC Hospital Employees, called for a "planned economy" and said "you can't divorce economic from political action."
"Wake up and fight before it's too late" was the demand of another unionist in a final call to action before the resolution was put to a vote.
RESOLUTION SUBSTITUTED
Eight resolutions calling for a fight back against employer attacks on organisation were tied up into a substitute which instructed the incoming executive "to intensify public relations activities of the Congress to the fullest possible extent by use of

radio, press, televsion, and other methods." In addition, provincial bodies, labor councils, and locals will be asked to appoint publicity committees under federal coordination.
The substitute was considerably more conservative than most of the originals which spoke in much harsher terms and in one instance called for a national weekly labor paper. One from a Montreal Steel Local, urged the CLC to "take up this challenge of big business and ,he monopolies and launch a massive counter offensive, rallying the labor and trade union strength :>i Canada, in order to unmask the capitalist profiteers who are the ones truly responsible for inflation and the rise in prices, and to safeguard the sacred rights of the working class."
"Our freedom is now in jeopardy," veteran unionist John Bruce warned delegates. He said history was being repeated with introdsuc-ion of repressive labor legislation and claimed that "labor relations acts in my opinion are untra vires. We should warn the public that their liberty is threatened the same as ours."
UNITY ESSENTIAL
"Unity of the Canadian working class without exception" was essential to turn back the offensive of big business, Quebec IWA delegate J. Bedard declared.
J. K. Bell, east coast Marine Workers, said the labor movement has "brought some of this on ourselves with disunity and expulsions. We should think in terms of real unity on issues of mutual interest." But the convention later ignored the warnings and refused admittance to so-called "left wing" unions, expelled the Teamsters (41,000) and SIU (18,000) but decided to continue "merger" discussions with the 100,000 Canadian and Catholic Confederation of Labor.
Despite requests for a higher amount, the convention backed a resolution calling for a $75 old age pension at 65 without means test, a joint contributory old age security program "over and above the flat rate system which may be in effect" when the plan goes into effect.
HEALTH PLAN DEMANDED
A resolution urging the CLC and affiliates "to initiate and conduct a campaign" to press for a national health insurance plan won convention backing but not before some delegates pointed out an identical resolution had been passed four years earlier without any plan materialising.
The federal government was urged to introduce "forthwith" a national health insurance plan which would provide a "national program of health care that will ensure there is available for every citizen whatever medical treat-Jment he requires in whatever form he requires it, including preventive and diagnostic as well as curative and rehabilitation services, drugs and appliances, provided by physicians, surgeons, dentists and other specialists and agencies."
A sharp attack was levelled on the drug "racket" with the CLC registering its protest at "the exorbitant prices being charged for drugs as revealed by recent exposes in Canada and the United States."
The Congress called on the federal government "to conduct an investigation into the drug industry to determine and to make public, among other things, the policies of drug manufacturers with regard to patents and licences, prices, profit margins, research, distribution methods, advertising, relationships with physicians and pharmacists and others who engage in the sale, distribution or preparation of drugs or prescriptions."
