Maritime Electric Co. Dinner

Labor - management co-ordin- ation was the theme of the annual Maritime Electric Company din- ner when approximately 175 em- ployees and their wives, and friends of the company gathered

}_last night at the Charlottetown ' Hotel.

After introducing the head table Ronald A. Parker, assistant sec- retary of the company, called on John VanMarion, production su- perintendent, to propose a toast to the employees.

Mr. VanMarion referred with appreciation to the relations be- tween all employees and manage- ment from the time he became superintendent in 1947.

In response Jack Brown. presi-

-"dent I.B.E.W. noted the progress

that has been made in friendly.re- lations between labor and man- agement. '

Mr. Parker then called on George Schleyer, one of the origin- al officers of the union, to propose a toast to the company. He re-

marked that the loyalty of the em- ployees was outstanding in that hours of work were secondary, service to the public being the first consideration.

Mr. Alastair D. Cameron gen- eral manager, in response to the toast reviewed the accomplish- ments of the labor-management team during the past year and ex- pressed the hope that, with the same co-operation, work would be achieved during 1958.

A film was shown in conjunction with National Electrical Week. Entertainment was provided by a young group called the Downeast- ers. Later dancing was enjoyed

Y. P. C. Club Hears Address By Mr. Heath Macquarrie

th Notes”.

Describing political parties as “the lubricant of democracy”, Mr. Macquarrie said that such groups had existed even prior to the Middle Ages, and in their early development exhibited either religious or dynastic af- filiations, or grew up around some outstanding leader.

“In democracies where the bal- lot has replaced the bullet, politi- cal parties are of tremendous im- portance,” he said.

The former Queens member saw political parties as arising from a number of social and practical reasons. Among these he enumerated: the universal de- sire of humanity to be in sympa- thy with or identified with a certain group or leader such as Churchill, a human li g for competition, such as illustrated by the present curling champion- ships; the spirit of pugnacity; and the determination of habit.

stressing the necessity of a strong central government Mr. Macquarrie declared that only the Progressive Conservative party could truly be termed national, since it was the only party ‘with representation from every Pro- vince and every national group”.

Mr. Macquarrie was introduced by ‘Lloyd G. MacPhail, New

Last night a group of boys, can- didates for the Columbiaii Sq- uires, were guests of the Knights of Columbus at a dinner at their home on Water St.

The Columbian Squires is a National Organization for Cath- olic boys, sponsored by the Knights of Columbus, and is de- signed to supplement the teach- ings of the Church, the home and the School, those three basic institutions, by an active parti- cipation in a programme of stimulating activities under adult guidance. The principles, out- lined in thisprogramme, are the means by which young men come to realize the usefulness of their leisure-time contribution to society. This programme should contribute towards better citizen- ship by affording our boys fre- quent opportunities to assume re- sponsibility, demonstrate initia- tive and direct their own affairs.
