"LABOR COUNCIL ASKS PROBE INTO MINERS' STRIKE," Winnipeg Tribune. July 4, 1934. Page 2. ---- Government To Be Asked To Send Commission to In- quire Into Conditions ---- The Winnipeg Trades and Labor Council wants the provincial government to send a commission to Flin Flon to investigate the causes of the strike of 1,300 Hudson Bay Mining and Smelting Co. workers.

At the labor council's meeting. Tuesday evening, a delegation was appointed to interview the provincial government and urge the appointment of a commission.

To Ask About Police The delegation was also instructed to question the government regarding the sending of police to Flin Flon. If it was found the government was responsible for this action, the delegation was ordered to register a protest in behalf of the labor council.

Discussion of the strike was opened by George Armstrong, of the Socialist party. He said a communication had been received from the strike commitee at Flin Fion stating the strikers had been given an unfair deal. He wanted the labor council to send a delegate to Flin Fion to get an unbiased account of the situation there.

Only One Side Armstrong charged the council and Winnipeg labor generally believed the company's story and ignored the strikers' case because they were said to be linked with the Workers' Unity League.

In the discussion that followed Armstrong's remarks, nearly all of the 25 delegates present had something to say,

Some of the delegates, including George Schollie, secretary, thought the council would be wise to take no action on the question as they believed the strike was being conducted by the Workers' Unity League.

Others protested the sending of large police detachments to the area.
