A GOOD MAN TO KNOW ! - NORTHWEST DETROIT - OAK-WOODS - GREENFIELD INVITE THEIR MEMBERS, FRIENDS AND PATRONS TO ATTEND THE Ontario Court Sees No Discrimination in `Christian Principles' TORONTO, (JTA)—A labor union dedicated to the applica- tion of Christian principles in collective bargaining cannot be I held to discriminate against any person's creed, Chief Justice ' James C. McRuer, of the High_ Court of Ontario, ruled on an appeael from a decision by the Ontario Labor Relations Board, which had refused to certify a local affiliated with the Chris- tian Labor Association of Can- ada. The board's refusal was based on the fact that members of the local would have to pledge to "uphold Christian principles" in collective bar- gaining. Finding the Board's ruling "erroneous," Chief Justice Mc- Ruer stated in his opinion that a "requirement to uphold Christian ethical or social prin- ciples, as taught in the Bible", does not in itself constitute dis- crimination on the grounds of race, creed or color. Ardon also received the 1954 arts award of the United Na- tions Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization. YOUNG ISRAEL OF DETROIT TAX F REE DI V Mr. Lawrence B.
