Crisis at Loyola continuesLatest EventsStudent and faculty discon­

ten t over the unprecedented non-renewal of the contracts of 31 faculty by the Loyola ad­m inistration, continues, al­though the summoning of riot police dispersed peacefully the adm inistration building sit-in that began last Wednesday.

The sit-in and numerous other events including the mock-funeral held Friday and attended by over 40 per cent of the Loyola community; and the resignations of numerous faculty following that of the Chairman of the English de­partm ent, Dr. Hooper, were intended to dramatize dissa-

. tisfaction.

The rem arkably calm and un-neurotic attitude of the dissidents is in sharp contrast to the arbitrariness and obs­tinacy of the administration; and the atm osphere of para­noia that existed at Sir George almost a year ago, is almost entirely absent.

Not only is the unity of students and faculty particu­larly striking, but the amount of support that has come from outside Loyola including ex­pressions of support from the English Departm ents of McGill and Sir George, and of delegations of students also contributes to high morale.

Yves Martin, M inister of Education has pledged to ap­point a m ediator in the Loyola dispute, though he has des­cribed the problems as “pure­ly in ternal” .

There has been consider­able reaction to Fr. Malone’s letter accepting the resignat­ion of Dr. Hooper in which he stated that Loyola m ust “res­tore the academic and moral leadership which unfortun­ately has been lacking” in the English departm ent; and that he found it “extraordinary and even illogical that you intend to rem ain a m em ber of Loyo­la’s teaching staff” .

The Loyola News revealed tha t a “Student Security force’ ’ had been hired by the admi­nistration and that forty

\ students had been paid over j-| $2000 to “safeguard law and

o rder” in the college. An edi- torial accused the self-describ-

i prted “concernedstudents” force. Of being “in effect, spies for the adm inistration”.

In the face of events the English dept has threated to strike on the twenty-sixth of January, if there is no reply to the present demands and actions.

At Loyola, the picnic at­m osphere of the sit-in; of balloons, of meals cooked by

comment

faculty wives, of parents and small children wandering through the halls, and of watching Newsreels of Colum­bia and S.F. state, has gone. In the face of Malone’s ultim atum and the riot squad, a new and as yet undefinable atm osphere is beginning to grow.

Administration explains Chairman’s resignation

Very Rev. Patrick G. Malone, SJ, president of Loyola Col­lege, today accepted the resignation of Dr. A.G. Hooper, chair­man of the English departm ent, adding that he considers it “extraordinary and even illogical” that Dr. Hooper intends to rem ain a m em ber of Loyola’s teaching staff.

“The fears you express are such, it seems to me, that you would not want to be affiliated with Loyola in any way, “Father Malone said in a le tte r to Dr. Hooper.

The form er English departm ent head advised a student m eeting Tuesday he was resigning “unconditionally” to pro­test the college’s decision not to renew the contracts of some m em bers of his departm ent. However, he has told the admi­nistration he will continue teaching at Loyola. Referring to Dr. Hooper’s le tte r of resignation of Dec. 30, Father Malone wrote:

“Given your subsequent statem ents to the media, to the English departm ent and to a meeting of students, denouncing the evolution of Loyola, I find it extraordinary and even illogi­cal tha t you intend to rem ain a m em ber of Loyola’s teaching staff.” -

He said Loyola’s position is clear: “ It must and will upgrade its academic standards in the English departm ent and restore the academic and moral leadership which, unfortunately, has been lacking. You know as well as I do that, for example, the attendance record of the English departm ent leaves much to be desired. “ Loyola no longer can tolerate a situation where En­glish instruction is determ ined in significant m easure by staff with qualifications no better than a B.A. Those who created the college, those who supported it over the years, the students who are attending Loyola and their parents expect the college to raise its standards, not to lower them, as has been the case in the English departm ent.

“ It is purely to upgrade standards and to recognize the fore­cast reduction in the student population at university level over the next few years, that Loyola is not renewing some teaching contracts for 1970-71.

English dept, plans actionAt a meeting held on Tuesday, January 6, the Loyola College

English department resolved on the following course action to protest the arbitrary non-renewal of contracts for 17 of its members:

Loyola has awakened — that is a significant section of Loyo­la’s students and faculty have arisen.

Oppressive conditions of life only become intolerable when people become aware of the possibility of changing those conditions. It would have been impossible for Loyola to have rem ained a sleepy pond of reaction amidst the turmoil of social change taking place in Quebec and throughout the world. The tus, ten years after the Université de Montreal became secular can only appear as ridiculous. The credibility of the student- faculty demands when compared with the arbitrary and ir­rational actions of Fr. Malone, dramatize the situation and m ake it appear to be the struggle between all that is rational and corporate-liberal; and the dark forces of clericalism and reaction. Logically, rational-liberalism etc., should win out, and Loyola should be quietly equipped with an administration similar to that of Sir George. There is however, a deeper mean­ing to the struggle. The demand for more control over the fir­ing of professors by the students and other faculty (professors they were forced to aecept in the first place) implies a desire to have some control, in the form of democratic hiring and fir­ing, over what is being forced into students heads. This is the essence of the demands and is what creates the conflict.

W ithholding of grades for half-courses ending with the Christmas recess.

“ Cease and desist” hiring new faculty and place adver­tisem ents in professional journals to discourage appli­cants for teaching positions.

Support for the newly-form­ed Association of Loyola Professors to appeal to the provincial governm ent to have Loyola placed in trusteeship.

Distribution of information to the college community and media.

Appeal to other universities

in Montreal and to the Cana­dian Association of University Teachers.

L etter to be sent.to the ad­m inistration requesting con­sultation on the withdrawal of the notices of non-renewal by January 13.

General assembly of mem­bers of the academic commu­nity at noon; representatives of the adm inistration invited to attend.

If there is no reply by the administration, implemen­tation of “work to ru le” pro­cedures.

If there is no reply by the administration to these demands, there will be an English General Lecture, 12-3 p.m. simul­taneous conducting of English classes in the general assembly hall.

If there is still no reply by the administration, General assembly and initiation of procedures for strike action.

Carnival Clippings | a CLU speaker knocks war effortn n H a v . T a n n a r v 12th. resD ectivelv . In c lu d ed in th eOn Monday, January 12th,

the prelim inary judging in the Carnival Queen contest took place in H-110, narrowing the original field of 59 contestants down to a workable 30 nomi­nees.

The contestants were ques­tioned on various theoretical situations, allowing them to dem onstrate to the judges their abilities in handling these situations, and also, to certain extent, dem onstrating their attitudes concerning contempory subjects.

Among those present as Judges, were members of the Carnival Committee and Stu­dents of the University body, plus special guests including Prof. T. Buckner (Sociology), Mrs. Norma Springford (Fine Arts), Mrs. E. Bundelek (Ad­m inistrate r-S A), Mr. Wm. Schwartz (President-SA), and also the Editors of the two student publications, Mrs. Ron Blunn (The Paper) and Mr. Steve Halperin (the Georgian).

We thank them all for their co-operations and their ex­cellent questions during the judging.

As a rem inder, towards the end of the contest, the six (6) finalists will be expected to represent the Carnival and Sir George on various TV and Radio shows, of the CFCF and CJMS Radio networks,

respectively. Included in the program m e will be photo­graphy sessions with the Press, appearing in a Fashion Show at the Bonaventure Hotel and also, as the guests of honour, at the W inter Carnival ’70 Press Conference, to be held at Molson’s, one of Carnival’s m ajor sponsors.

Prizes to the finalists will consist of sports-wear by Val Hughes, cosmetic by Helene Curtis, jewelry by Birks, and assorted other prizes.

But, to the Carnival Queen, to be chosen at our Place des Arts night, Monday, February 9th, will go the grand prize of a trip for her and her escort to sunny Mexico with Canadian Pacific Airlines (CPA), with a side tour to Acapulco, for 21 (count them!!) beautiful days. This trip is all expences paid, with an added prize of a com- pletelynewwardrobeprovided for the Queen.

To the 30 finalists, I wish them the best of luck in the future judgings.

VIVA MANANA!!!!

The United States Army in Vietnam is using a few soldiers the burden of guilt for the attrocious war crimes the nation is

At least tha t’s what Ira Glasser believes.

Glasser is the Associate Director of the New York Civil Liberties Union. His chief claim to fame, however, was his im portant role on the legal staff of Capt. Howard Levin in the infamous Fort Jackson Court Martial case of 1967. Approximately 100 Sir George students and Fa­culty Members heard him speak last Friday as part of the curren t Political Science Association series.

Glasser spoke first about the events leading up to the arrest of the New York City Doctor in Columbia, South Carolina in the spring of 1967. Levi was

tried for five separate war crimes, carrying a maximum penalty of eleven years hard labor. Ultimately, he was sen­tenced to three years at Fort Leavenworth, andhasrecently been transferred to a low se­curity prison where he is working as a gardner (“ a fine job for a Jewish kid from Brooklyn, where nothing ever grows”)

Levi’s crim es consisted al­most entirely of things he said against the American War Effort, Glasser said. “ By War Crimes” he continued, “we mean every violation of the law of war.” This law is clearly listed in an official American Government publication.

Reduce Metro Fare!For too many years now the

M ontreal Transportation Commission has held a captive population of university stu­dents. Commuting five days a week students have had to pay full adult fare, fare which has risen to thirty-five cents cash, (thirty cents for a ticket).

This is wrong and unfair for a num ber of reasons. Firstly day students do not have regular jobs — indeed many do not have part time jobs. This eats into the savings of the weekend worker (savings that could have gone for his tuition) or else cuts into the pocketbook of the supporting parent — parents who bet­ween tuition and taxes are often under considerable fi­nancial strain without the added burden of adult bus fares.

As considerably less than half the University under­graduates own cars, most are affected by the M.T.C.’s rates. Night students, who often hold only subsistence jobs, have to use three or four of these ex­pensive tickets a day. Com­m uters by train or cab have another expense tacked on to their already considerable transportation costs.

Why should undergrads who are not making full-time money pay full-timefare? High School students pay less than one th ird the price of adults though they too often hold weekend and summ er jobs. The only difference between the teeny hopper and under­grad is age — the income is

the same.University students aren’t

the only ones treated unfairly by the bus lines. Old age pen­sioners, livingon $109 amonth, are also expected to pick up the tab.

A reasonable student fare (e.g. 20 cents cash, 15 cents a ticket) should be instituted. People over 65 should be al­lowed to ride free between the hours of 9 AM and 3 PM. Stu­dent I.D. cards should be ac­ceptable for reduced prices on­ly during the twenty-six weeks during which classes are held and only between Monday and and Friday.

W hat can you do about this injustice? You can pay your thirty-five cents, broth­er — in pennies. T hat’s right, drop thirty-five copper into the box. You are not break­ing any laws and are paying in full, legal Canadian tender. This article is being published simultaneously at McGill and Sir George Williams Univer­sities. The protest week will be held betw een January 26 and Feb. 1. Please join the cause. Besides idealism there is plain cold cash involved her. Tell your old folks to drop in their coins — they’ll benefit too. W rite letters expressing your opinions to the Mayor and Town Coun­cil. Shake off your apathy and shake out your piggy bank. Come on Georgians, McGillers, and Pensioners let’s come together right now.

Mark Harris

as scape goats in order to shift committing.

“Among those crim es” the lawyer went on,” are mutila­tion of bodies, bounty hunting, assassination, and forced transfer of civilians.” Since Levi had never .worn an army uniform outside the State of South Carolina, it was hardly likely that he was guilty of these or any other violations

, of the Law of War. “The most in terresting thing about. the court m artial” Glasser added “is that many unbiased and even Pro Establishm ent peo­ple left it feeling that there was more evidence to convict the Government of the United States than there was to con­vict Howard Levi.

When asked if Anti-Semi­tism was a determ ining factor in the ju ry ’s verdict, Glasser said he didn’t think so but addedthat “being Jewish,from New York and against the war won’t make you the most pop­ular man in the south.”

On the question of the recent Green B eret debacle and My Lai Massacre, Glasser felt that “to get the public thinking that America does what it does in Vietnam only as a m atter of policy, it has tried to pin a rap on a few soldiers of mis­fortune.”

Glasser ended his talk by reading a passage from a work of George Orwell, which ex­plained in a nutshell how the world powers are the biggest perpetrators of W ar Crimes. “A whole nation is accompli­ce to these W ar Crimes by falling into the trap of letting the in terpretation of war Law digress so far out of context” he concluded.

Goodbye Ja c kThe long crusade to “get Jack Silver” is finally over.The stormy tenure of Sir George’s controversial bookstore Manager

. came to an abrupt end last week with the announcement of his resig­nation.

Silver’s stay at the University was m arked by sit-ins, demonstrations and strikes, an even a student-organized attem pt last summ er to go into direct competition with him. He finally gives way to an abundance of bureaucratic pressure and long, relentless action by a hard core of deter­mined students who refused to rest in their efforts to oust him.

The bookstore problem was pinpointed by Administrative Vice P rin­cipal John Smola when he told the Board of Governors that there “$250,000. worth of junk” in the store.

Dr. Smola is referring to the sweat shirts, teeshirts, beer mugs and nighties which forever clog up the shelves of the bookstore and leave them in a constant state of disarray. These sundries also inevitibly pile up to cut down on available space for text and paperback books.

It is hoped that the new Bookstore Manager heeds the words of the Vice-Principal. If books can be made more readily available and priced lower by sacrificing the store’s jewelry and haberdashery departm ents, there should be no hesitation in moving for the latter.

If the University had wanted a flea market, it could very easily have opened one.

Loyola AgainThe m arriage of religion and education is on the rocks again at Loyola

College.The West End school has decided not to renew the contracts to m eet

with the projected decline in Loyola’s enrolment.

It is perhaps interesting that almost without exception, the faculty members who will not be retained are those who spoke loudest against the Administration of President Patrick Malone in the recent Santhanam affair.

Seventeen of the twenty seven are members of the College’s Depart­m ent of English. A whole departm ent stands to be destroyed by this ac­tion and some of Loyola’s best teaching personel will not be back next fall.

All that higher education is based upon is at issue at Loyola right now; the right of students and faculty to speak out freely and offer construc­tive evaluation of what they find wrong with their educational environ­ment.

W hen a University is confronted by dissident students, it is in serious trouble. But when large scale unrest is stirred up in the ranks of the fa­culty, a governing body which refuses to give in is tam pering with the very fabric and existence of the institution.

We join the departm ents of English at Sir George, McGill and U of M in supporting the students and faculty of Loyola. Unless Father Malone can abandon his perennial hard line for a state of rational compromise, (something that he has indicated he will not even consider) his adminis­tration should be forced to give way to a more progressive and intelligent one.

S.H.

This comment was published in the Jan. 4 issue of the Vermont Sunday News as a special editorial written by the publisher William Loeb.

Last week the 18-year-old daughter of Donald Newhouse, general m anager of the Springfield Newspapers in Springfield, Mass., was seized at 12:30 a.m. by three men right in front of her family’s suburban house in Springfield, Massachusetts, as she got out of her car. She was kid­naped, raped and thrown out of the car some hours later. She could have been murdered.

This all occurred in front of the horrified eyes of her parents who were looking out of the window, helpless to do anything about it. Mr. New­house immediately called the police. They showed up 25 minutes la te r and no immediate alarm was sent out to o ther towns.

All of this tragically illustrates exactly what this newspaper has been saying for a long time: The police can’t be everywhere. Even when ef­ficient— and apparently they weren’t very efficient in the Newhouse case — it takes them a while to respond.

During that time someone can be brutally beaten, raped and murdered and other irreparable damage can be done.

Therefore, as this newspaper has said many, many times before, and WILL say many, many times in the future, the one protection the decent citizens of this nation have is to own guns and to be trained in their safe, efficient and effective use.

For instance, there is no indication from the story that the three roughs who kidnaped Miss Newhouse were armed. Therefore, had her parents been skilled in the use of guns and had they kept their weapons near the front door or near a window upstairs, as any sensible house­holder SHOULD do, they could have, with high-powered rifles, easily shot the kidnapers and driven them off before they injured the Newhouse girl.

Furtherm ore, had Miss Newhouse, herself, been armed, she could have driven off her assailants.

Just as Miss Newhouse arrived at the house, the other car with her assailants in it sideswiped her automobile and she was in the act of ex­changing licenses with the driver when the kidnaping occurred.

Of course, any young lady of 18 should be aware of the horrible nature of our society today and, therefore, should never, NEVER get out of her car to exchange licenses, or for any OTHER purpose, with any stranger except a policeman in uniform.

This applies not only at night but even during the DAY. A young lady — or adult — should simply tell the other driver that she will sit right there in her car, with the windows and doors locked, until the police arrive.

The great difficulty and the sad part of it is tha t until such a tragedy actually strikes, many fine, nice, normal families in the United States do not realize that, unfortunately, this is a tim e in this nation when the beasts are loose and on the prowl. Furtherm ore, as has been proven in THIS case, they do not care into what exclusive neighborhood they go or what prom inent family they attack.

Therefore, the one solution is for every decent family in the United States to own rifles, shotguns and pistols and be trained in their safe and effective use.

Also, wherever possible, large dogs, such as German Shepherds or Dobermans, are recommended. If, for instance, in this situation those who kidnaped the Newhouse girl had been arm ed and had used the girl for a shield so her parents could not have effectively used their rifles from the window, that would have been the time to loose a good dog. A good Doberman or a German Shepherd, let loose on these kidnapers, would soon have freed Miss Newhouse. They can attack from the rear or from the side and they are much more effective, sometimes, even than guns ina situation such as this.

«

This newspaper deeply sympathizes with the Newhouse family and their daughter, as we would with ANY family subjected to such a hor­rible experience, especially during the holiday season. However, some good can come out of it — and that would be for the Newhouse papers, which are the largest chain of newspapers in the United States today, to join with THIS newspaper in a campaign to see that every citizen in the United States is well armed and able to protect himself.

Always rem em ber that there are more good guys than bad guys in this world. Right now the laws are set up in such a way as to deprive most of the good guys of their guns and their right to carry concealed weapons. The bad guys ALWAYS have guns. They don’t bother about registering them or licensing. They steal them, make them, m anufacture them — they ALWAYS have them so they can bully, rape, m urder and rob the good guys whom they know have been disarm ed by law.

If the good guys were all armed the minority of bad guys wouldn’t have a chance.

eliteQuebec Wasps: oppressedby Peter Desbarats reprintei

When Irving Layton left the charred rem ains of Sir George Will­iams University for the greener fields of York, Toronto newspapers cackled over his pronouncem ent that the English lights are going out all over Quebec. Misquotation, he later explained. He actually had told the Toronto reporter tha t the chanukah lights are going out all over Montre­al; tha t the asphalt playing fields of St. Urbain Street, where Duddy Kravitz served his apprenticeship, are filled with Greeks; that the new U pper Middle Class “Golden Ghet­to” of Cote St. Luc (which Layton himself pioneered when it was still a semi-rural municipality) leaves him cold; in o ther words, that the Jews of M ontreal no longer light the candles of Layton’s inspiration.

Too bad for Irving. Worse for Mordecai. Dangerous even for Leon­ard. But a ray of hope for the poor Wasps of Quebec.

Is it conceivable tha t the rougher things get for them — the Wasps — the better chance they have of becoming the Portnoys of tomorrow? Even (is it too much to hope for?) the French Canadians of the future?

If you look at it this way, history is on our side. ( I say “our” because, as an English-speaking French Cana­dian of Scottish and American-Swiss descent, I ’m as typical a Quebec Wasp as you’re liable to find on a clear day on Mountain Street.) The story of hum an development is re­plete with examples of m aster civili­zations which, surrounded and swamped by barbarians, became in­visible centres of cultural germ ina­

tion, broadcasting their writers, poets, artists, sculptors and philoso­phers spore-like to the far corners of a barren world. Greeks were the teachers of the Roman Empire. Rome, in its decay, became the uni­versity and studio of Europe. In our own time, we have only to look at London where the irridescent mould shimmers brilliantly on the garbage dump of centuries. Is this the future that awaits Westmount?

Let us compare mythologies. The example closest to hand, and the one that inspired Layton’s rem ark, is the Jewish. For centuries, the Jews were an oppressed minority par ex­cellence. In many European coun­tries, no m atter how far you des­cended in the social scale, the Jews rem ained beneath you. Even in North America, at first, Jewish im­m igrants were the lowest of the low. They moved into the worst districts of our large cities. They competed for the worst jobs. For a generation and then some, they lived in ghettoes which closely resem bled those they had left behind in Europe.

One result was that the Jews be­came by far the most creative single group in our own North American civilization. Protected by an imposed isolation from the crass values of a pioneer society, nourished by a reli­gious culture that was a direct pipe­line to some of the best European in­fluences, the Jews in America be­gan to bring forth an astounding num ber of writers, poets, artists, academics, musicians and other creative people.

As an English-speaking Montreal

writer, I have been particularly aware of Jewish creativity. Not only have I greedily consumed the novels of Jewish American w riters but in my own city, the dom inant lite r­ary influences have been Jewish. Leonard Cohen towers above all the poets of my own generation. As an essayist and satirical novelist, Mor­decai Richler has no equal. Irving Layton has been a dominant p re­sence since I graduated from nur­sery rhymes. Compared with these, most of the “Anglo-Saxon” w riters of my own culture seem anemic.

If anything, the Jewish influence seems to have become more intense in recent years, or possibly I’m just becoming more sensitive to it. Since I made a belated discovery of Saul Bellow two years ago (another prod- duct, in part, of the M ontreal ghetto), I’ve tended to gorge myself on his writings. Last fall, preparing for an interview, I re-read Richler’s Duddy Kravitz and, ju st the o ther day, I read its autobiographical sequel, The Street. No sooner had I put it aside than Philip Roth’s Portnoy’s Com­plaint was th rust into my hands as part of a journalistic assignment, right after I had finished reading his Goodbye, Columbus because it was the only decent thing available in the Ottawa railway station.

The result, a t the moment, is a complete rebellion against North American “ghetto” litté ra tu re in any form. I’m sure this will pass, but I ’m also certain that Layton was p repar­ing the obituary of this particular genre with his offhand rem ark about

from Saturday Night

the chanukah candles going out in Montreal. Even Richler’s new book, it seems to me, is just getting in un­der the wire. The Montreal ghetto was vanishing rapidly as Mordecai and Duddy emerged from their teens. Today, even the audience for this type of literatu re is aging.

As the Jewish w riter disappears within the dominant “Anglo-Saxon” group in N orth America, where will we find his like again? Among the blacks of the United States? Already there are signs of that. But in our own small Canadian world, where is the oppressed minority of the fu­ture? The Indians and Eskimos? Not yet. Would you consider the Wasps of Quebec?

Let me list our qualifications: Small but viable cultural and lin­guistic minority of about one million people, form erly a great imperial power responsible for the settlem ent and exploitation of new territories, now divorced from political power in its own territo ry but still essen­tial to the new rulers because of its technical and commercial skills.

Surely, with this pedigree, it is only a m atter of a generation or two before poets, novelists, playwrights, sculptors and geniuses of every de­scription s ta rt pouring from the withered loins of W estmount over the heads of startled French Cana­dians, complaining like a thousand Portnoys about the sociological and cultural emasculation which has given them not only the leisure time for varied sexual careers but, at long last, something to shout about.

Despite the aura of gloom which perm eates Sir George these days, one organization seems to be flourishing in the vacuum. Hillel, with its “new look” has launched a series of programs which are quite u- nique in institutional settings. Following the patterns of Free Universities (the director, Paul Gregg, was chief organiz­er of M ontreal’s Free U. in 67- 68), Hillel has a full range of activités which not only com­mand interest, but demand involvement and creative ability.

Many students who find Sir George a stultifying experi­ence have turned to smaller, more invigorating environ­m ent such as Hillel. There are seminars and workshops, speakers, open forms, special events, informal raps and cof­fee houses. (They need people working on publicity for all these events, making posters, newletter, w riters and editors forHillel’squarterly ,“Strobe” , etc.) In addition students are filming “The Hershie Story” based on the life of one of M ontreal’s more notorious underground types. They hope the film will reflect the feel­ings of a num ber of Jewish students trying to render order out of chaos. A “living theatre troupe” is evolving, employing the ideas of Artaud,

The Tramp as a Deviant in Societyby Marv. Rotrand and Gerald Belber

I: Prologue

Much abuse and insult has been heaped by society on the tram ps and hobos, yet that so­ciety is responsible alone for causing men to become out­casts, transients and vagrants. It is not that transients are deviants and thus take to a life on the road but ra ther that economic conditions in­herent in capitalist society cause a few to succeed, a few to survive, a few to fail.

Capitalism has always seen a roving proletariat. But since the early rise of monopoly corporations, after the crush­ing of the free enterprise mode of production, and es­pecially in the United States, the num ber of hobos has risen a hundredfold, at times a thousandfold. Today’s hobo differs from his brother of the Depression Era, being the poor and unemployed of the cities, but still has the same role in society due to the same economic conditions. The hobo is a deviant if we accept the

1 views of the propertied class, those that own the industrial plants, the optimistic (one hesitates to say blind) view that class struggle does not exist, that there is equal op­portunity for all men. If we do not, then it becomes manifest to point out that the hobo is a victim of the economics of ex­ploitation.

II: The Continued Existence of the Hobo

Despite the most stringent police regulations, a great city will have a num ber of home-

* less vagrants to shelter through the winter. If this is so, then apparently there exists more stringent reasons for the continued existence of these vagrants. In North Ame­rica, the tram ps became known as seasonal workers, prim arily sowing and harvest-

* ing agricultural produce. Wel- comed in summer, they were harassed by strict police regu­lations during w inter when, unemployed, they became a burden on the community. Yet

each year the right arm of the corporate state could do noth­ing to decrease their num­bers. From police actions then, we must conclude that it is not right to be hum ane and generous to our fellow man — when they are tramps.

Thus it would appear that the tram p is stronger than or­ganised society and cannot be put down, that he is shabby, unfortunate and - homeless, that there are vast num bers of hobos, that hobos who are will­ing to do honest work, often have to hunt hard for it, and that hobos are undesirable. To the last contention we must apply the concept that the hobo has a function in society and that he is the by-product of economic necessity.

In capitalist society there are more men than jobs for men to do. What would happen if a hundred thousand tram ps were inspired to go look for

, work tomorrow is obvious. Yet every day society preaches to the hobo “go to work” , from the judge on the bench, through the pedestrian who is asked for a dime, to the house­wife who is asked for food. If the hundred thousand hobos received work, one hundred thousand workers would have to h it the road and seek work. Strikes in the last hundred years clearly show this. In 1901 when workers on the Pacific coast in a huge list of indus­tries went on strike, when new jobs in Alaska and the Phil- lipines had drawn off thous­ands of men, there still arose enough surplus labour to break many strikes, surplus laborers anxious to work. If the surplus labor of the Pacific coast cities had been drawn off then from where did the second army of workers to re­place the first army come? Certainly the unions did not scab upon one another. Inland workers did not head for the coast, nor agricultural wor­kers. The surplus labor army simply existed, the men who most often fill the ranks of tramps. Similar instances every year of this century

points out that the surplus labor force exists for there are more men than work for men to do.

Ill: Surplus Labour isan Economic Necessity

The capitalist mode of pro­duction necessitates a surplus labor force. One economic need is production fluctu­ation. At low ebb if all men are employed, it follows that at high ebb no men will exist to do the extra work.

Then there are the great and irregular periodical demands for labor. When a canal is to be dug, a railway to be built or repaired, when thousands of laborers are needed it would be harm ful to draw the wor­kers from heavy and constant industries. Even today with modern technology, most of these workers are unskilled, discouraged men who have flocked from the cities ra ther than small construction teams. Included in this cate­gory necessitating surplus workers are harvests. Perhaps more than any other need, harvest caused the unemploy­ed and discouraged of the cities to sweep back and forth across the United States. W ere there constant work and good wages (theoretically, this too runs against the division of surplus value of commodities between worker and capital­ist) who would have harvested the crops? Today’s farming machinery allows a few to harvest instead of many. This has caused the tram p to find other seasonal work or forced him back to the city where he lives by welfare in a pre­carious hand to mouth ex­istance.

But the most significant reason is that surplus labor acts as a check on employed labor, becoming a means whereby the m aster may keep wages lower. Strikes fail only because there are plenty of men ready to take' s triker’s places, otherwise the corpo­rations would never use in­junctions or call out the mili­tia. The union’s success is

proportionate to the skill of the trade or thus proportion­ate to the pressure of the sur­plus labor force. It is easy to see why 100 skilled steel wor­kers are harder to replace then 1000 ditch diggers. Clearly we ' can see that without a surplus laborforcethecapitalish would labor force the capitalist would be powerless against labor who would demand the full product of their toil, ab­olish wages and thus capital would perish.

IV: The hobo, By-productof Economic Necessity

To understand why the tram p is a product of economic necessity we m ust first ex­amine the men who form the class of tramps. Since workers must compete for employment (more men than jobs) it is the more skilled and efficient who win employment. Those with­out ability, incompetent, crip­pled, and uneducated receive the worst work if they are liicky,. These men will be the first to be let off in recessions and among the last hired dur­ing booms. Thus they become surplus worker. But these in­efficients do not alone com­pose the surplus-labor force, joined by the skilled men who are unsteady and unreliable, old men with dwindling skills or strength, and men th rust out of work from dying or disaster-sm itten industries. Refugees and immigrants, handicapped by little knowl­edge of a new language, often needing any employment are forced into becoming surplus workers.

The tram p is a tram p be­cause someone needs to be. If he left the “road” or slum and became a highly efficient wor­ker some ordinarily efficient laborer would have to take his place. The tram p is either a discouraged worker or a dis­couraged criminal. A dis­couraged crim inal on investi­gation proves to be adiscourag- ed worker or a descendant of a discouraged worker. Since society in its present form cannot provide jobs for all, discouragem ent for some is unavoidable.

For the mediocre there is no hope under capitalism, as there is no hope for the eman­cipation and leadership of society by labor. Mediocrity becomes sin. Poverty is the penalty for it — from whose grasp springs the crim inal and tram p, discouraged men in the face of blind economic forces. A worker or prospective wor­ker, conscious that he has fail­ed or that he will not be able to find employment finds sev­eral courses left open to him. He may become a beast of the slums living in perpetual mis­ery or a crim inal or he may rebel against his discourage­ment, rebel against work and the assembly line and become a tram p. A man out of work who is forced to hit the road between the large industrial cities in quest of labor, has

the georgian'/7

loafed, seen the country, lain on his back, listened to birds and smelt the flowers and forgets the factory whistles, bosses and foremen. He has lived, he has not starved and has been happy. Thus he achieves a new outlook on life, pitying his brother, the unenviable poor worker and boycotts work to join the w anderers of Hoboland. Both the tram ps of the coun­try and the cities discover nu­m erous means of living frugal­ly and carefree, a means whereby he need not confess his failure. He voluntarily withdraws himself from the com petitionfor work, realizing industry does not need him. No factories close down with­out him. Women are often glad to work for- low wages in his stead. Men and b.oys remain in abundance to fill surplus labor reserves in the cities, often enough so the tram p may be free from work.

Thus since there are more men than jobs for men to do, a surplus army results of econo­mic necessity. Here are con­gregated the mediocre, the inefficient and sometimes too, the rebellious (a num ber of today’s hippies for example). The struggle for work is fierce and savage and leads to the discouragem ent of many. Hoboism and crim e become the means by which society drives off its waste. And being driven off fulfills the function of the tram p in capitalist so­ciety. Society makes much waste of human life, a waste that m ust be eliminated.

E lectrocution'or gas would be a merciful solution to this problem since no other means exist in our society. But bour­geois ethics — that states that all men are created equal, that all human life is priceless — will not perm it a solution to the elimination of waste, a paradox dem onstrating the irreconcilability of ethics and industrial need. But as think­ing beings why should we tolerate that the weak and their little ones m ust suffer because of their birth, be­cause of the economics of ^ exploitation.

The day of the common man m ust come. We m ust join our brothers in the demand for industrial democracy. No longer m ust significant por­tions of harvests be destroyed to stabilize prices. Socialism f m ust prevail so that all men may find employment, govern themselves instead of being governed like objects.

Sociology has misled us into thinking the hobo is a deviant. This is unkind and hypocriti­cal. We know there is no work, or short and undesirable jobs at best, for him. As a scape­goat in industrial exploitation, we should at least recognize his function. Society has made the tram p, he did not make himself. The tram p will be eliminated, as will the urban poor only when men rise to transform society.

Chiarella Bounced

HAYES NAMED GRID COACH

' ■ I :

W hat has been speculated for several weeks was con­firmed late last week. Brian Hayes will coach the Georgian foothball team in 1970.

Hayes handled the offensive Une for head coach which Phil Chiarella last season.

Chiarella was informed his contract would not be renew­ed.

In making the announce­ment, Athletic Director Doug Insleay said that “Although we were happy with the job Phil did, he did not have the time necessary to devote to the university. Hayes will be able to spend two or three days a week here, and we feel that is very im portant.”

Hayes will bring to the job a wealth of both playing and coaching experience. In 1968, he was head man with NDG Maple Leafs Junior squad, and

Brian Hayesprior to that he spent six years as line coach with Loyola High School’s Senior team. In 1962, he was player coach with Cho- medey Vikings of the old QRFU senior league, and was voted the League’s Most Valu­able player.

The new coach also had brief stints with both Montreal Alouettes and Edmonton Es­kimos of the Canadian Foot­ball League.

The thirty year old Pierre-

f onds resident greeted the new challenge with enthusiasm: “We have the nucleus for a great team, and with some of the new boys we expect next season we’ll surprise a lot of people

Rated a stickler for condi­tioning and discipline and an outstanding recruited and evaluator of talent, Hayes is expected to bring together the largest turnout ever for Georgian football. The team ’s training camp will open in late August.

He will be given a free hand in selecting his assistants, and an announcem ent on the mak­ing off the staff is expected shortly. “ We are interviewing seven or eight candidates for three coaching vacancies,” Hayes revealed, “and among them are some of M ontreal’s best football men.”

Cagers dumped by MacA large, vocal crowd and

one bush league referee saw the Georgian basketball squad drop a 78-72 decision to the Clansmen at Old Macdonald’s Farm last Friday. The OSL contest was m arred by some­what questionable officiating as a total of 43 fouls (many of them debatable) were called on the two squads.

The Georgians, starting slowly, watched the Clansmen post an early 6-1 lead. The cagers narrowed the gap to one point at the end of the first period but the Georgian de­fence then fell apart, allowing the home team to build up a 45-32 m argin at the half.

The second half began with both squads trading points for several minutes. Tiring of this, the Georgians decided to put on one of their patented rushes and cut the Clansmen’s lead to one point with five mi-

Wilding - 22 Points

nutes left to play. Peter Tulk and Richie Campoli were par­ticularly effective in leading the Garnet and Gold on the comeback trail.

In the dying m inutes of the game, the Georgians pressed

too hard and made several costly mistakes, thereby per­m itting the Clansmen to es­cape with the 78-72 win.

Richie Campoli and Dave Wilding were the brightest lights for the Georgians as the duo netted 24 and 22 points respectively. Aside from their scoring feats, both cagers were noteworthy in their defensive efforts all evening. Jim Aitken hooped 14 points for the Geor­gians.

Rookie Kim Kurtz came off the bench to. play his best game yet in a Georgjan uni­form. The 6’2” forward was particularly strong on the boards as he supplied the Gar­net and Gold with much need­ed rebounding power.

Next game for the Geor­gians takes place this Saturday as the cagers host the cadets from R.M.C. in an OSL contest at McGill.
