4L The Windsor Star Friday, November 17. 1978 35 CLC president says theres no swing to the right MONTREAL (CP) Canadas so-called political swing to the right is a myth because leftists are still getting elected across the country, says the president of the Canadian Labor Congress (CLC). Dennis McDermott brought his campaign for greater labor involvement in politics to the Canadian Paperworkers Union constitutional convention Thursday, and called on unions to resist being used by government and industry as a scapegoat for economic ills. In contrast to his appearance at the Ontario Federation of Labor convention in Toronto Tuesday, where he was booed by postal workers and their supporters, McDermott received a standing ovation by the paperworkers before and after he spoke. Mis message was upbeat: The DP is gaining, not losing ground.

Progressives won mayoralty races in Toronto and Ottawa this week. The NDP was re-elected in Saskatchewan and the party has its first in Newfoundland because of a byelection win last month. "I dont see the swing to the right that everybody talks about," he said. If you are an intelligent leftist, people will follow, if you can demonstrate good leadership, people will follow. Saskatchewan Liberals thought there was a swing to the right and tailored their campaign for last months provincial election accordingly, hesaid.

They believed in the myth and they ran galloping down that path and were completely annihilated. In Nova Scotia, the Liberals went the same route and were defeated by the Conservatives, with the NDP increasing its vote, the CLC president said. He predicted B.C. and Manitoba will be back in the New Democratic fold soon, and with careful planning and hard work, Ontario could go NDP, too. McDermott said labor is fed up with being blamed for the countryseconomic ills.

Instead, the public should consider the "caoricious, infan tile, irresponsible, dangerous activities of the last several federal finance ministers, he said. One day they want restraint, the next they want people to spend, spend, spend, he said. Workers, for their own good, have to elect MPs who have them in mind and that means NDPers so the country can get a dose of rational econom ic planning for a change, he said. If youre ready, the CLC is ready to lead the campaign up front," McDermott said. Returning to another pet theme, McDermott noted that strikes, rather doing damage to the economy, may be the escape valve that prevents European-style urban terrorism from taking hold here.

Once and a while we have a strike, and once and a while it just may be therapeutic, he said, noting that Japan and West Germany have fewer strikes, but they also have terrorists. Later, McDermott told reporters he felt his stormy reception in Toronto uesday had been staged by the Canadian Union of Postal Workers, who are upset the CLC urged an end to their recent strike. But it didn't bother me," he said. Too much tranquility isnt good forme. Mass killer Manson denied parole VACAVILLE, Calif.

(AP) Mass murderer Charles Man-son was denied parole Thursday, after a three-hour monologue in hich he denied any guilt in the Sharon ate murders. However, Manson admitted: I don't belong in society. There's no place in society that 1 fit." Manson, speaking out for the first time since his 1971 conviction in the Tate-LaBianca murders, flailed his arms and even sang a song in trying to show he was wrongly convicted. 1 didn't kill nobody and 1 didn't order nobody to be killed, the 44-year-old Manson said. Man guilty of killing stepdaughter He told the parole board that if he wanted to kill someone, he would never have entrusted thejob to his rag-tag hippie family- If 1 wanted anyone killed, I'd kill them myself.

But 1 dont ant anyone killed because 1 love my own life. Does that make any sense? he said. He denied that he ordered members of his family" to murder actress Sharon Tate and six other persons in August 1969, or to kill grocer Leno LaBianca and his wife the following night. Manson, who has been in prison for nine years, was thin and had prison pallor, and his hair and beard were long and shaggy, much as they were when he was arrested in 1969. He ridiculed his reputation as a demonic murderer, I'm not your executioner.

Im not your devil and Im not yourGod. ImCharles Manson. Manson also let the board know he does not like being in prison. I'm mad. I'm indignant.

Im mad to every bone in my body that I have to come back to the penitentiary when I didnt break no law. Im dying every day in this hole." The parole hearing was a session granted automatically to each prisoner who has served seven years in prison. Originally sentenced to death, Mansons sentence was commuted to life imprisonment when the death penalty was outlawed in California The Windsor Star- Friday, November 17, 1978 Section 4 Pages 35 to 46 Classified Pages 36 to 43 Horoscopes Page 39 Comics Puge45 BRANTFORD, Ont.
