committee for canada t g mcmanus who broke with the party over the issues of korea four months ago to quote him is attempting to reestablish p himself as a loyal canadian citizen no doubt aided by a substantial fee for the story privilege from the maga zine by telling all about his former comrades in crime it shatters our last illusion about honour among thieves while at the same time making interesting reading regardless of ones views on the rightness of a confessed plotter against his countrys armed forces during the recent war making a profit on his expose the story does have interest for every canadian it warns that we cannot be complacent about our domes- ticf communists ncrbeatded muscovites these their black hearts are the only point of dissimilarity to other canadians and one

the least that can be done immediately is to i stalilish a roal commission for a fullscale i inquiry into the facts it ii not enough to let it go at a mere magazine article if mr mcmanus is correct in his statements the full force of the law should he turned on those who would betray their fel low canadians and the repentant should himself recerve his due share of the punishment if he is using a serious world situation to make himself a few spare dollars by calumnv against his erstwhile political friends it is only fair that this too be exposed pot pourri its cheaper to live in a small town
