This action of theirs will only aggravate the situation to a point where it will be the breaking of any legiti- mate action for trap elimination. “The Maritime affiliated machin- ists, AFU, have declared their in- tentions of filing suit against the ASPSU for all loss of work for their members over this strike ac- tion The United Fishermer union, an affiliate of the federa- tion, is, however, standing pat un\ fish prices of 10 per cent above lQS'I: which I believe is also the case of the ASPSU but there is no strike action on the part of the UFU over this issue.” FUNERAL SERVICES FOR MRS.
