If you take away the prosperity of the farmer, you take away our own and the pros- perity of everyone else in this Province.

That is all I can do.” Mr. Wright left the meeting at the conclusion o! his address and was followed by Mr. Adam Borsk, assistant director of the United Packinghouse Workers of Amer- ica. with headquarters at Winni- peg. Union Official Speaks

Mr. Borsk began by telling the meeting that the present serious ‘situation in Charlottetown was solely due to the “wishy-washy" Government in power. "I have seen a lot of wishy-washy Gov- ernments_ in my time." he said, “but I never saw one so wishy- washy as your Jones Government. It sends over a Government offic- ial to plead with you to go back to work at a starvation wage and he threatens you with loss of org- anization powers if you do not.

“I have seen arm-chair farmers

who gets a Governor-Generals permission to call a calf after him so he can raise the price a little higher. Most dirt farmers in this country are lucky to get 815 or $20 dollars for their calves but the pure bred cattle raisers ask thousands for theirs and thenshed crocodile tears over the farmers’ troubles."

not big enough, not alone because he has a nation-wide organiza- tion rcady to fight him to the limit, but because you have ~the good-will of every big-minded farmer in this Province behind you. They know what those pack- ers have done to them and would do again ii the workers’ organiz- ation failed.

"Our strike is not against those farmers. They, too, have to work for a living and it is an unfortu- nate thlng that this Government which pretends to be their friend is not willing to help them and us and this whole Province by granting you men s decent wage for yourselves and families.

"This strike will go on until we have gained the right to have one national conciliator sit in with us and the packers. Already five Provinces have agreed to one con- ciliator. Two Provinces and a half are against the idea. Ontario and Quebec arc the two Provinces and the half Province ls this one be- cause your Premier Jones saw fit to send an“observer." Not a mem- ber of the Government, nor arm- ed with any powers he. neverthe- less, shoved in his five cents worth by registering disapproval against a national-conciliator. What can you do with a Government like that’! '

"Your Premier has the distinc- tion of being the first to take over a packing plant. There was talk of Duplessls going to do a lot against the workers but even he had more brains than Jones. He left the thing alone."

In conclusion. Mr. Borsk an- nounced that regular plcketing of the plant would be carried on (o- day. He warned the union mem- bers against violence of any kind. “Peaceful plcketini. boys." he said. "Jones would like to see the other kind.”

Following Mr. Bonk. the meet- ing was addressed briefly by Mr. Russell Wheaten. Moncton. N B, secretary of the Psckinghouse Workers Union there.
