A‘settlement of the three
month municipal strike was
“-almost scuttled. in. North
Vancouver City,-Mayor Jack
Loucks revealed Monday. —

Three aldermen, Frank
Marcino, Gary Payne and
Elko Kroon, had . been in
favor of the ‘tentative
contract ‘with the Canadian
Union of Public Employees,
and three, Bill Sorenson,
Ralph Hall and Stella Jo

Dean, had. been opposed.

Loucks,/who had to cast
the deciding vote, told Hall
at Monday's council
meeting, “I was almost
tempted to vote with you,
but I didn’t want to see the
strike continae.”

Loucks’ disclosure was

prompted by a letter from a
North Vancouver residént
who wanted to know: which
council members voted for
the holiday pay provision.
