RCMP VS. B.C. MAU MAU

British Columbians are looking to the
Royal Canadian Mounted Police to live up
to their tradition of “getting their man” in
the bomb-terrorized interior of this province.

The situation that exists in the West
Kootenays — and has now extended to the
Okanagan — is almost as bad as that which
prevailed in enya when the Mau Mau were
killing and burning,

Those who think this is an exaggeration
should consider what their feelings might be
today if the powerful bombs — discovered
just in the nick of time — had exploded in a
Vernen hotel or on the Kelowna-Westbank
ferry.

The bedies of some innocent victims of
these infernal devices would have aroused us
to a hue-and-cry that would not have died
gown until those responsible were behind

jars. -

We hope we do not have to wait until
there is a tragedy before the culprits are ap-
prehended. And this brings us to the role of
the RCMP in this gangsterism.

Our Mounties have been going through
the motions but let us be frank about it; they
have not achieved results. No charges have
been laid in connection with the weekend
bombings of “Okanagan hotels, ferry and
power lines. No arrests have been made —
save that of a young man who was not con-
nected in any way with the terrorism.

Indeed, all the RCMP seem to be doing
is to rush reinforcements from place to place.
At the moment 60 RCMP officers from other
detachments have been sent to the Okanagan
and the Kootenays to strengthen the forces
in those areas.

But nothing effectual is being done. Pol-
ice block roads and search cars for dynamite,
lights burn in the schools throughout the
night, watchmen and watchdogs patrol! school
grounds, floodlights and guards are stationec
on the bridges, guards patrol the railway
tracks. ,

And _still the dynamiters are at large
and fearful communities wonder where they
will strike next,

For as long as we can remember the
RCMP have been almost sancrosanct to most
of us, They were the superlative in polici

job.
While nobody wishes to be unfair or to
suggest that the force has any easy task in
the Kootenays, we have become used to the
idea that the Mounties take the tough ones
in their stride.
And, after all, we are not dealing with

the supernatural, Human beings made those
bombs from glass sealers filled with dynamite
and nitro-glycerine. And those same human
beings are not wraiths that leave no trails.
The Mounties have a job to do in the
interior and the public now looks to them
to do more than the routine things at which
the dynamiters are thumbing their noses.

The following letter appeared

an interesting insight into the
running ‘of the New Denver
school for Sons of Freedom child-
ren.

Dear Sir:

The New Denver teaching
staff and the staff at the New
Denver dormitory for Sons of
Freedom children deserve great
credit for their capable, kindly
and unselfish work. The Provin-
cial Government also deserves
commendation for its positive
action in establishing and main-
taining the dormitory.

secretary, It was indeed a re-
warding experience for us,

When we arrived, the chitd-
ren were just returning from the
New Denver City school to the
dormitory for lunch. This is a dis-
tance of about three blocks. They
go to and from school ugattend-
ed, just as all children attending
public schools.

The dining room is furnished
with arborite top tables about
four feet by 12 feet. The room Is
spotlessly clean. The meal served
was well planned and attractive.
No meat is served, After their
lunch the children returned to the
town school.

We continued our visit of the
dormitory. The kitchen, shone
with cleanliness. All the major
kitchen equipment is stainless

tendants were immaculate in

but by the third glance nobody cares.
This is perhaps not the most commonly
exploited portion of female anatomy, but we

are sure further coment would cover fam-
iliar ground.

While this type of advertising is quite

ble to most “modern minds,” it is not

insertion, the like of which sionally floats
to the surface of the article. May we add
that it is exceedingly sneaky to seed a reason-
ably logical argument with snide subtleties,

One of these little afterthoughts sug-
gests that men select women on the basis of
sex appeal rather than intellect. This we ac-
cept on penalty of being left with nothing
else to say. The point however is: if women
wish to be appraised as intellectual creatures
why do.they allow their sex to be exploited
in advertising media?

If sex sells everything from bread to
bank accounts on advertising posters, then
why shouldnt it sell women as well?

A pair of shapely, near life-size female
Jegs hong suspended in space on a current
poster. On second glance — and there is a

conducive to a male intellectual approach
when seeking a female companion.

It is only too easy for a@ man to uncon-
sciously assess women who cross his path
from the stand-point of physical endowments,
when al! criteria necessary for such @ judge-
ment have conveniently been ground into his
subconscious.

Women wish an intellectual relationship
with men, Do they now? Then why do they not
protest the continual propaganda of advertis-
ers which suggests anything but such a rela-
tionship? Such advertising, employing portions
of female anatomy as convenient props,
should theoretically be blasted by North Am-
erican women, indignant at: such unrepre-
sentative use of their sex.
