RCMP Brass Get Verbal Blasting

OTTAWA (CP) — The RCMP brass is given a verbal thrash- ing by Chief Justice Frederic

Dorion for keeping their investi-

gation under wraps in the Liicien

Justice Minister Favreau against prosecution without sup- plying him with all the facts

Commissioner G. B. McClel- lan, Deputy Commissioner J. R Lemieux, Superintendent W. G. Fraser, Superintendent J. R.- Carriere and Inspector G. W. Reed are sitigled out for some of the harshest words of criti- cism in the judge's report to the government. tabled Tuesday in the Commons

But Chief Justice Dorion says the force's “efficiency is beyond question” and his comments re- late only to their inquiry into allegations of attempted bribery and political pressure against federal ministerial aides

The Quebec Superior Court's chief justice says the appoint- ment of an investigator who speaks only English in a case involving French-speaking per- sons “is so extraordinary that it is hard to believe it has hap- pened in our times.”

He says serious consequences flowed from the fact that French ques- tioned persons in French, then

INSPECTOR PRAISED

Inspector J. P. Drapeau, chief investigator on the case, was an excellent choice, the judge says.

“There is no doubt that had he had complete freedom of ac- tion . . . the results would have been quite different.”’

lt would have been more Iogl- cal and normal to entrust full

Inspector. Drapeau, “leaving him complete freedom of action in interrogating the people he wanted to, without obliging him to have constant recourse te his senior officers for instructions.”

Revarding the advice gives Mr. Fatreau by Commissioner McClellan and Deputy Commis- sioner Lemieux, the judge says:

“I do not believe it to be the responsibility of the RCMP .of- ficers, ho matter how great thelr experience, to advise the minis- ter of justice in regard to a de cision he should take in respect of a denunciation, nor in regard a
