Ottawa Report
By Patrick Nicholson
Igor Gouzen.ko‘s dash for free- dom in Ottawa has recently been Copied by other Russians carrying out espionage or secret service work under the cloak of diplomacy in Japan. West Germany and Aus- tralia. This calls to mind the many other civil servants employed by Russia and her satellites in less sensitive diplomatic posts who have also chosen freedom. A study of their cases leads to the conclusion that Canada is t-heir favourite choice as a new homeland; or per- haps they are so happy working in Canada, and see freedom and prosperity ao shining here under our democracy, that they cannot help prefcrriiig life here to a re- turn to Iron Curtain regimenta- l.DIl.
The most celebrated of the de- sertions was that of the Nemec group representing Czechoslovakia ;n Canada. The day after the Iron Curtain clanged down on their <'0Ul1'-r.\'. the entire diplomatic staff_ from Minister down to jun- ior stenographer. walked out in a body and asked for permission to remain in Canada as private citi- zens. That was in 1948; today most of them are Canadian citizens. The Minister himself, Frantisek Nemec, aided by his wife, st“-red a pastry shop in Ottawa. Their cakes and buns, and their .cs for mid-morning or mid- ocn coffee and snacks. -3' filled their tiny shop in Ottawa's Glebe district, and en- couraged them to open a accent: and larger shop in the heart or the government and business sec. I1(ll'l,
The N€l'll€C5 have now sold out to a large bakery which carries on in the same tradition, while Mr. Ncmec now works for the In. it-rnationai Service of the Can- adian Broadcasting Corporation
an-
Polish New-Canadians
The largest number of diplo- matic settlers come from Poland. One former Minister of Poland, Victor Podoski, has established a profitable business as agent for tore-ign wine merchants in Ottawa. Ano_ther_ former Minister. Waclow Babméki. became a. lecturer in In- ternational Law at Ottawa Uni. V9r5il.\'. Nine members of the Bab- inski staff walked out with their boss and asked for permission to remain in Canada as private citi. zens: this was granted to them all, from the Consul General down to 3 Sergeant major employed in the military attache‘: office.
That mass move in 1045 has licen followed by a steady stream of Polish diplomats leaving their "Di-mlfy‘s service in later years: two in 1949. one in 1960. one in N51, and one a few months ago.
One of the best-known freedom- seekers in Canada is the Czecho- slovakian diplomat, Kasparek, who had represented his country as Min- ..<ter in Moscow. Like many of the eminent diplomatic refugees, he obtained work in Canada as a uni- versity lecturer.
I-‘ram Freedom To Prosperity
The list of diplomatic represen- tatlves of other countries who have left their posts here and remained in Canada as private citizens is not limited to former citizens of iron Curtain countries. Canada's life and opportunities have also “W8-Cled. since the war. two French officials. three British of- !icials. one U.e.A. omcm ma one Yugoslavian, among the total list of 33
Imllllzranta who have come to vanada in the usual manner have in recent years included more na- i.on:ils of Iron Curtain countries than of the British Isles. In the zhree years i949-1951. for example, ':o'.'ernment statistics reveal that :ioproximat.ely 55,000 Poles settled .n Canada, 8,000 Russana. 0,000 Czechs, 9,000 Hungarians. 23,000 Baits. 5,000 Houmanians, and 10.000 Yucri.-lavs. This made A total of l_l9.000, compared to a total of .'.mo immigrants from England,

‘Firewall Gathering’ For New London Minister and Wife
—The home of Mr. William Ber- nard and Mr. and Mrs. Fred Ber-. nard. French River, was the scene of a large gathering on April 29. when members of the congrega- tions of The Geddie Memorial and Long River Presbyterian Churches, along with other friends, held a farewell party for the Rev. Donald A. and Mrs. Campbell who are transferring from New London to Montague.
with Mr. Arthur Stewart as the genial Master of Ceremonies. the hymn, "Heavenly Sunshine" was sung with Mrs, Donald Lamont ac- companying. A lovely Spring floral arrangement featuring Crocus blosroms and ivy. grown and ar- ranged by Mr. George Fergudon was presented to Mrs. Campbell by ‘little Wayne Bernard.
An address expressing that Mr. and Mrs. Campbell are about to leave the New London district, was read by Mrs. Donald Lamont, and conveyed good wishes for God's blessing on their labours in another locality.
As a member of the W.M.S., Mrs. Campbell received a gift of china- ware, presented by Miss Hattie MacLeod. A trilight floor lamp was presenttd by Mrs. Allison MacLeod on behalf of the Geddle Memorial congregation. The gift from Long River church was a mantle parlor clock and two pair bed sheets, presented by Mrs. A. A. Campbell.
Mr. Campbell responded and spoke of the kindness always shown him and his, by the people here, \\'hom he invited to visit them in Montague.
Mr. H. B. Maclieocl. the senior elder of Kensington Presbyterian Church, was called upon to speak, and recalled Mr. Campbell's valu- able services as Interim Modera- i.:>r during ilie two years the Kensington charge was without 3 minister, when he was always found to be courteous, pleasant and helpful.
The hymn “God will Take Care of You" was sung, with Mrs. Harry Underhill at the piano. Lunch was served and an hour of happy fei- lowship enjoyed.
Mr. and Mrs. George Howatt. French River. entertained for the Rev. Mr. and Mn. Campbell. when the Young People‘: gift was a table lamp. Gifts were also re- ceived from the Granville congre- gation and from the Clifton con- gregation when Mr. and Mrs. Murray MacKay opened their home for the occasion. BUR
Scotland, Wales and Northern Ire- land in the same period.
The most contentious group of immigrants to reach Canada since the war are undoubtedly those Frenchmen who collaborated with Nazi occupation armies against their own country, and who faced execution by the government of liberated France. About 300 of these entered Canada, in most cases illegally and in some cases even disguised as priests under as- sumed names. Their admission to Canada is bitterly resented by loyal Frenchmen who have become Canadian citizens, and case after case is being brought up in Parlia- ment. to the embarrassment of the government. The latest such case involves Michael Seigneur, who is reported to have served with the infamous Natl 3.5. during the war. and was sentenced to death by A French court, in absentla, for en- couraging the activities of a foreign power, Germany. against his home- land, France. He entered Canada as a non-lmmlgrant_ and eighteen months later was given immagrant status by the unusual method of an Order in Council made by the Cabinet.

H. G. waus sronv “WAR OF THE WORLDS" AT CAPITOL. SUMMERSIDE
—An invasion. which the tremen- dous power of the atom bomb is helpless to repel. is thrillindly de- picted in Paramount's new Tech- nicolor suspense drama,‘ "The War of the Worlds,” which opens to- day at the Capitol Theati'e. For the invaders in this spectacular story. based on a novel by H. G. Wells, are Martians who attempt to con- quer Earth.
The terrifying tale rs-counted on celluloid begins when a strange object, believed at first to be a meteor. lands near a California town. A group of scientists, called to the scene to study the object, soon discover that it is not a me- teor at all—but a space. ship from Mara. The weird bat-like machine emits a deadly heat wave which dislntegrates everything within its path.
Scientists and the military mo- bllize all the knowledge of inan- kind, but. their efforts are to no avail. The most devastatingly pow- erful weapons man has developed are rushed into use against the un- earthly invoder. All known de- fenses prove lneffectual as the
enemy's seemingly impregnable er- mor is not even pierced. When it seems that the inhabitants of Earth are doomed, a strange twist of fate intervenes. and through al- most miraculous occurrences. ‘ihc .invaders themselves are defeated.
