bably come later.

Roy boy, I could fill a page
with this stuff, and I’d like to
know why the labor reporters
haven’t reported it. I’d also
like to hear some more about
morality.

See you at Expo.

Morality lessons
from Brother Roy

T’S GREAT TO SEE that Mr. Roy Gauthier
is now talking about morality. He’s the head
honcho of the B.C. and Yukon Building
Trades Council, recently found guilty of contempt
of court in the Battle of False Creek. And now he

states that it is ‘*
pay low wages.
A week ago I described the

Alice-in-Wonderland fact
that if a plumbing contractor

morally wrong’’ for contractors to

residents on the contractor’s
payroll two weeks prior to
the start of the job to meet

and the other to watch. Also,
if an electncian works any
part of his shift
underground, he is entutled to
hot soup at the coffee break.
He may not be underground
when the jolly old coffee bell
goes, but he can still demand
his soup. If he does, someone
must be sent to find him and
give it to him.

There are even cases where
a whole crew hired locally

ing up more of this stuff, |
asked the Construction
Labor Relations Association
to give me chapter and verse
on this weird arrangement.
So here's Claus 6.7 of the
plumbers’ agreement:

“If there is an insufficient
number of bona fide local

some agreements,’’ says the
CLRA, ‘‘men working on the
project who are able to live at
home are paid a living-out
allowance of $287 a week."

Even the British umions
would stand in awe and envy
of some of this material. For
example: an electrician can-
not go underground without
another electrican If the
lights go wrong, i takes (wo
to do the job, one to work

in travel costs to send a man
to work in Abbotsford, says
the CLRA. In many cases,
men travel three or four ina
vehicle, and they get $270
each.

If an employee does more
than one-and-a-half hours’
overtime, many agreements
require the contractor to pro-
vide a meal and pay the guy
while he eats it There's no
mention of a cook having to
be on hand to cut his meat up
