Live recording by Mr. D.H. Lehto of the 71st Anniversary of the International Union of Mine, Mill and Smelter Workers celebrated in Sudbury Local 598 hall. Includes: 1. Introduction of local officers by meeting chairman Tom Taylor, President of Local 598. 2. Address by Mine Mill International President Al Skinner in which he states that Mine Mill is reorganizing against United Steelworkers of America raids in the U.S. and has recently won four out of five elections despite less stringent requirements for an election in the U.S. than in Canada. Skinner comments that Mine Mill did not lose the vote in Sudbury but "were counted out"; he says anti-union tactics of division and red-baiting used in United Steelworkers of America raids cannot build a good union and talks about the revival of the International Union of Mine, Mill and Smelter Workers in terms of its history of rebuilding in 1933 after its decline in 1919. 3. Messages, bagpipes, etc. 4. Address by Mike Solski, President District 2, on behalf of National Mine Mill union says birthday celebration in their own hall promises to "bring back the full brightness which once existed". 4. Address by Al Skinner on bagpipes. 5. Address by Nels Thibault, Chairman of Fight Back campaign in Sudbury, conveys greetings from "Big Jim" McGuire, organizer of Cobalt Mine Mill Local 136 in 1906, and quotes him on the value of "a rock in the sock" fighting spirit of the old unionists instead of the briefcases carried by modern unionists. Thibault introduces other local officers present; comments on failure to regain certification in 1962/63 as a temporary setback. 6. Address by Ray Stevenson, National Mine Mill representative, on behalf of national executive members. 7. Closing ceremonies.
