is Live Issue

The matter of Communinn in the 18.000-member union has come up at almost every convention of the union during the last six years.

At the last ..u..vention. the sub- ject was brought up from the floor on the last day but no action was taken as it was talked out.

Mr. Wade's dismissal came less than six weeks after Mr. Jenkins told a union local meeting that "subversive and ' ' A elements" were trying to gain control of the union. '

He said the "Bob Stewart case" was being used by some persons to undermine the district leadership.

Stewart. a union local secretary and former U.M. W. nib-district board member is 0W0 Mr. Jenkins for the presidency of the C.C.I.-affiliated union in elec- tions slated for June 13.

He was dismissed by Dominion steel and Coal Corporation about two months ago and the comp- any's action was unheld by coal umpire Roy Mecnonald.

As an educatlonlst he never for- got his own early career as s teach- er and he crussded constantly for improved facilities and better sal- aries. As school commissioner he savrra. new Sydney academy built and as governor oi his old slma mater. Dalhousie University, he watched a big elepansion program carried out.

He was of the old school of gentlemaniy affability and this was most-strikingly mticeeiblewhen he was entertaining at his own friendly fireside. A stocky man and good story-teller. he always had time to recount tales of legal and Journalistic dcrrinrg-do in young reporters.

And his sense of humor was re- tained to the end. It was only a. few days ago he checked up on one newspaper man who had been keeping a daily tab on his condit-

ion-known in journalese as a "death watch." "-I know you don't want to be

scooped if 1 cash iin my chips." he chided. "but if the hospital keeps tellins You I'm resting ccsnfortsibly they'll start thinking maybe I'm alright and kick me out of this comfortable bed and room."

outstanding service

Mr. Duohemln's service to low and education was outstandiirx but it was perhaps to journelisn that he made his greatest contribution.

At an April meeting of OP'e board of directors when Mr. Duchemin's resignation .was ac- cepted. his colleagues from pop-. ers across Canada recalled the 33 years he had taken en important part in bringing about the devel- opment of CP.

The resolution added: "His has been a record of distinguished service and his wise counsel and sound ludgment have aided mater- ially in bringing the Canadian Press to the efficient position it holds today."

Mr. Duchemirrs position as a leader was established when he was a student. A son of Alsort Duval Duchemln of channel Is- land Huguenot stock and Jemima Compton. he was born in Char- lottetown and educated in public schools there. A classmate at Prince of Wales college was Most Rev. John McNeily. new Roman Catholic Archbishop of Halifax. Both were brilliant students and there was a friendly rivalry bo- tweeri them for class leadership. Throughout the years Mr. Discha- min was I constant visitor to his native Prince Edward island and he established at Bay iibrtune one of the most attractive summer .esidences in the picturesque Gulf country.

He moved from the P.l.f. col- lege to Dalhoueie University svhere he received his 3. A. degree and the University gold medal along with ha in the claslltte in 1&6. After graduation he was ap- pointed to the staff of Pictou Academy where he spent most of his after-clan hours studying law. He becune artlcled to C. It.

Also during his term .of office he attended the British Empire Press Union conference in Britain. Meanwhile, his editorials had gained wide recognition for clar- ity and scholarly thought as he gave generously and aggressively of his talents to spearhead cam-

paigns to develop the Canadian economy-nationally. pmvln-:.-tally and locally. He was a leading

champion of "M.a.ritime lights." Longest Blttlo

His longest battle was waited to bridge the Strait of Canso. separ- ating Cape Breton from mainland Nova Scotia. Recently the Federal and Provincial authorities reached agreement on 3 program and pre- liminary steps have been taken to launch a project which is estim- ated to cast 813,000,000.

In a civic way he .upre.eei-ited for years one cf the wards on the Sydney city Council and was a member of the School Board. It was during his term as school commissioner that the present Sydney Academy was built after he had played a mayor role in campaigning for it.

He not only served with a num- ber of royal cosr.ml:slons on economics but as counsel he pre- pared the freight rates brief of the Nova Scotia Government which he submitted to the 192'? Royal Com- mission presided over by sir And- rew Rae Duncan.

As one of the early graduates of Dalhousie he maintained a. deep interest in the institution and was A member of the Board of Gov- ernors for many years up to his death.

Mr. Duchemin was a member of the Sydney Board of Trade and the Albany CIU-lb of Toronto but was strictly a home and family man belonging to no service clubs or fraternal organizations.

His great interest in his own political party. however. saiw him serving in various executive cap- acities on both the Dominion and Provincial PPOQI'EE'SIVe-COI'ISCI'VaI.- ive Association.
