The resolutions specifically _ prohibited involvement. a confILct "whose purpose Ls really the defense of imperialist, in- terests,” and urged all steps to en- sure such independence be taken immediately. For the C.C F, the automatic first step is for Canada. to refuse to co-operiite with Britain on rearmament. or ln anv way which might leave the Dominion ln the position of being prcjudged an ally.

In the present day alignment of Powers lt is hard to imagine a war tn which freedom and civilization. as democracy regards them, would not be involved. or. at: least. serl. ously menaced as a result.

CITY POLICE AND CRIME Sir,--.People frequently are boo |IlflSby to criticize and condemn their police departments when crime increases. when investigation lags behind. and when progress ls slow in running down law-breakers. Very few individuals seem to re- allze that the general public itself ls largely responsible for obstruct- ing the proper administration of justice through the reluctance of most persons to co-operate with the police authorities when they are in a position to do so. Crime will continue to flourish as long as the people would rather retain their contumacy than aid the pol- e. The police of Charlottetown do their duty without fear or favor. No department. of the city has so much duty to perform as the Clty Police. In sunshine or rain. heat or cold. they must risk their lives to do their duty to protect lives and property. The services performed by the City Police officers are worth more than they are paid. They are wlll- ing to give their best to the publlc regardless of the rlsk lnrvolved; all they ask for is a little aid. support and co-operatlon of all good citi- zens, _ There were 400" more arrests dut- lng the year 1937 than there were fifteen years ago with the same number of officers in the city. This proves that. crime ls on the in.- crease. Crime ls now socletyts greatest foe.
