implications in Handling lleils

By GERALD WARING

0I'rAWA-The Supreme Court's Liudsment in the Jehovah's Wit- ness case of Rex v. Boucher is having a far-reaching effect in a more important struggle than the alleged persecution of this trouble- some sect in Quebec.

It rew law enforcement offic- ers into a flat spin when they considered its effect on their ef- forts to control the Communists. Government lawyers are studying it.-'-Wins to decide what should be done to block the loophole Rex v. Eoucher has opened to the Reds. ' -Aime Boucher was convicted in Quebec of seditious libel for pub- lishing a. pamphlet entitled "Que- l:ec's Burning Hate". He appeal- (cl to the Supreme Court of Can- ada. which split 5-4 last December to allow the appeal and quash the conviction.

In effect, this majority's judg- ment ruled that while a person's language may be calculated to promote ill will and hostility be- tween different classes of citizens, fl'l(I becwccn the people and the courts, that person .is not guilty of sedition unless there is an in- tcntion to incite to violence, or resistance to or defiance of con- 1-zltuted aiithority.

Enforcement officers fear that henceforth practically their only lznpe of convicting a. Communist ct sedition will be in those rare cases where they can prove an act of violence rcsulted from the words uttcrccl. Existence of mere intention to incite to violence, they believe, will be very hard to prove.

As a rcsult, despite recent Gov- criiment administration acts and stiffened treason laws aimed a: domestic. Communism, there has boon little if any nct strengthen- izig of the authorities power to battle the Krcmlln's fifth column in this countr';.

Partly due to this. and partly dun to a growing belief that the time has come whcn we should stop lianzlling Communists with 1: d gloves. I hav heard it sug- giv.-tod in responsible quarters here tiiat what we ncccl now is a new law aimed directly at the home- grown Rods.

This is essentially the same idea that Progressive Conservative Lead- or George Drciv has been preach- in: for the last year. He doesn't ziclvocalc nutlawiiii: the Labor- Progrc:..vc fC0l'i'lmilnISf) Party as such. His position, as he explained to me recently, is that "The act- iiities of the Communists to un- ri-rmine democracy in Canada, in the service of Russia, should be defined by law as criminal acts".

This would give our law en- forcement officers legislation un- rcr which to act comparable to the Smith Act in the United States, As Drew pointed out, if we recognize Communism for what it is, a conspiracy to overthrow our democratic way of life, such legislation would covcr all active members of the Communist Par- E)” U C O

A stock Govrriiiiicnt rebuttal to suggestions of direct action against the Communist Party is that such action would merely drive the Reds underground. It's better. the arxumriit goes, to let them oper- ate opcniy. so we can keep an eye on tlicni.

But. the nruiiiiiont. is more wish- fiil lilllli-(lllQ than realism. for somcthimz like Fifi per cent of tho Rod nr;:nni7.aiioii is underground ahl'il'3)', What is visible is com- jpnrnhlc to the al)oi'e-watei' part. of an iccbcrz.

The Vi!-lI')I8 orlzniiization-the Labor-Prncrcssivc Party in this coiintry--is the false front to be- giiilc the rzulllblc. to propagand- l7r, niirl to l'E'Cl'llll. men and no- fnr indoctrination and event- ual absorptioii into the fifth col- umn underground.

Mia. or- vllle Turner read the scripture, Mrs. Earl Rodd led in prayer and Mrs. In-lth I-iughu gave I meditat- ion on our duty-our Christian duty to God and Man. Congregat- ional singing of "In Christ There is no But or West," and ,"Jesus Shall Reign," with Mrs. Stanley Younker at the organ, brought them into close fellowship with Him who said. "I am the WI)'. the Truth and the Light." This being the chosen theme of the meeting Mrs. Guy Pierce, Presbyterlal Baby Band secretary. presided. Mrs. John Mac- Innls extended a very warm wel- come snd this was responded to by Princetown Road Auxiliary. Mrs. Cutcllffe of Fredericton assisted the chairlady during roll call of auxil- iary members, and all sang the theme lxvmn ”O Lord and Master of Us All."

The treasurer of Presbyterial presented a very satisfying report. half yearly glvings showed an in- crease of 3422.46 over the corres- ponding period of last year.

In the absence of the Presbyter- lal President Mrs. I-lazen Howard of Cornwall, Mrs. Cutcllffe read a challenging message for greater effort to enlist more workers for full time church work and to en- deavor lo raise more funds with which to build more churches.

A paper prepared by Miss Louise Calibeck of Bedeque on Christian Citizenship was read by Mrs. Eus- tln of Charlottetown.

She stated we are citizens of the best oountry in the world. Are we living up to the siaiidard-the best citizens of the best country. only as we practise the commandment Love Thy Neighbor can there be any hope for peace in the world. The theory is good but the need is for reality in practice.

Miss Helen Wilson of Covehead Auxiliary rendered the delightful Brslli. "Be Thou High, Abide Vlllth Mrs. Stanley Thompson. Pres- byterial Community Friendship Secretary, assistpd by Mrs. Bag- nail and Mrs. Coffin, of Charlotte- i-Olfm. presented a very true to life skit on "Which Sort of Visitor Are You?" Theme hymn '0 Lord and Master of-Us all." Several Prcsby- terial secretaries sent messages, these were read by ladies scatter- ed Ulfol-lxhctut the congregation. The experiences of a missionary at work proved a very interest- in topic, so capably told by Miss abel Newsoine of Charlottetown. Her work among the people in the coke-oven district of Sydney. Cape Breton Dortrayed the life of those in need. she said, we have so much do we become Indifferent to the need, some times only a smile or clasp of the hand meant so much to the newcomer in his bewilder- ment.

The report of the Baby Band secretary stressed the importance of early missionary education. the mothers responsibility and privil- age and lhe- Church's care of the little ones.

A (very interesting and instruct- lve literature display was presented by Mrs. Allison Tait, Presbyterial Literature Secretary, she urged us to use the wealth of materials pro- vldcd. The offering was taken and

dedicated in the singing of the Doxology. Mrs. Ashford of Charloitetowii
