MR: ‘ALBERT Ritchie of North Vancouver thought he was living ina free country, one in which there is freedom to publish, read, speak or for that matter rant on any subject. 'Aijas, he discovered on returning to the True North from the

‘U.S. that he was mistaken. He had political books and

' magazines in his car that were

1 Seized, ‘by our Customs Gestapo,

acting ‘under standing orders from +

Ottawa, which is ever anxious to

‘ ‘protect us from wicked thoughts. 3 The. Gestapo, which put its posi- :

tion in writing, stated:

“The said goods are seized because he Smuggled or attempted to smuggte them into Canada, whether clandestinely or not, the importation of which is prohibited, controlled or regulated by or pur- suant to the Customs Act or any... other Act of Parliament and that said conveyance was made use of therein.”

You will note here that our Gestapo makes illiterate and

‘quaint use of the English language ;

that is hard to follow. Smuggling goods ‘whether clandestinely or

, mot”? isa puzzlement, for instance, |

‘But let us not pick nits. Our thought police have a jobto do.

The titles of the books thus seiz- ed are too numerous to list. But

here are a.few examples: ‘The Life’

of John Birch”; “How Commu- .

nists Negotiate’; ‘The Romance —

of Education’’; ‘‘Zionist.Watch’’, Mr. Ritchie's letter of protest

Speaking of ‘refugees,"’ a North Vancouver reader asks me why it is that phoneys can pour in- to the country after stuffing their papers down the toilets of airliners. ‘*Can you give some ex-

: planation as to why nothing is

done about this?""

Certainly, my dear feilow, It's because we are ruled by the mad. If this werz a sane country, anyone arriving without proper documen- tation would be put on the next

, plane out, no matter how many ia;lies they told about being refugees. "But. we have fixed it so that we

can't do that. The result, pretty soon, will be that we shall find. ourselves stuffed down the toilet,
