World copyright reserved the labor scene emotional flood talk engineers by Dudley Magnus because the Manitoba federation of labor Csc went on record at its recent convention in Winnipeg against the Manitoba Hydro flooding of Southern Indian Lake it can be taken that the province s organized labor stands officially against the flooding. Below is an extract from the Manitoba professional Engineer of june this year. It appears to be a kind of editorial and i thought interested unionists might like to hear what the Engineer s official Organ has to say. The editorial bits out at unprofessional debate. The position of labor is that it is opposed to the flooding because there Are supposedly fan alternatives recommended which have not been made known in detail by the government. Until these alternatives Are fully known labor will continue to be opposed to the government on this Issue. Labor makes it Clear however it in t against Progress and that the prov notice will anyone who witnessed Accident at Minto and St. Matthews 5 .

Here is the extract including the j o u r n a 1 s own heading let s stick to the facts association members have undoubtedly been Foll owing with interest the controversy regarding the flooding of Southern Indian Lake. No matter what position Cne takes on this matter and it seems everyone has a position we feel that some of the debate has been carried out in a most unprofessional manner. Certainly much of the personal abuse to which Hydro officials have been subjected originated among that group which we have All come to know As student radicals. However there seems to be an alarming tendency on the part of some professionals to adopt the Over emotional methods of the student radicals As their own. We do not pretend to know enough about the subject to make a judgment one Way or the other but one fact seems evident. Both the government and Manitoba Hydro have acted in what they consider to be the Best interests of the majority of Manitoban. Yet officials representing both Hydro and government were subjected to a juvenile display of personal harass ment at the Public hearings on the Issue. Surely debate on this level is detrimental to both the general Public and the group who disagree with the Hydro decision. We would Hope that All those who oppose the flood ing of Southern Indian Lake especially those within the engineering profession Wil carry out their Campaign in a manner More suited to a debating forum than a Campus Good question indeed. Why does t government disclose details of the alternatives it so happens that i m in agreement with those who want to leave the indians alone to fish in peace. Wrote bad Cheque Freehold .
