The Forum met on Monday even-
ing at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Alva
McDowell with 29 present. They dis-
cussed family allowance, old age pen-
sions and unemployment insurance, and
decided .-that family allowance was a
good thing as it gives children in large
families adequate supply of good food,
it is a means of balancing purchasing
powers of large and small families.
They decided that the old age pension
was a good plan, but the age limit as
referred to in the form guide of 70
years should be reduced to 65 years.
This Forum believe that workers
have a right to join a union, and strike
to gain better wages and assurance of
employment, but in some cases the
strikes arc carried too tar, and in many
cases they strike when the wages they
receive are sufficient. Unetnployrnent
insurance is a good Government policy
for industrial workers, but A,ve Would
