REDS IN CANADA
ASSISTANCE TO SPAIN COMPLAINT BY PREMIER OF QUEBEC. DOMINION GOVERNMENT CHALLENGED. By Telegraph—Press Association —Copyright. (Received This Day, 12.5 p.m.L QUEBEC, January 27. The Premier, Mr Maurice Duplessis, challenged the Dominion Government today to explain why “passports were issued to twelve hundred Canadians who went to fight for the Communists in Spain. By what authority did the Government permit the recognised leader of the Canadian Communists, Tim Buck, to visit his brethren in Spain and return to Canada to continue a nefarious battle against the established order and the democratic traditions so dear to us.”
The challenge is included in a letter to Mr Wilfrid Lacroix, a member of the House of Commons, who proposes that Canada close its mails to Communistic literature.
