KELSEY No Passports Needed... 4 T HE AMERICAN TOURIST, his world T grown "suddenly small, is looking with renewed interest toward Canada, where an international border is still an imaginary line. To the north of the United States there re- mains one nation in which no passports are needed. In inviting Americans to visit the Do- minion the Canadian Government has assured all bona fide United States citizens that they may enter Canada with the same informality as in previous years. Yet, despite these assurances, there is a suir prising confusion among many Americans over Canada's border requirements. Idle rumors and conflicting reports have given widespread im- pressions that United States citizens must con- tend with considerable red tape and difficulties in returning from Canada. Actually, the facts are these: 1-American citizens do not need passports. 2-Naturalized citizens are required to present naturalization papers. 3-While not mandatory, some document of identification such as birth or marriage certifi- cate, driving license, club card, tax receipt, so- cial security card, or the like is recommended to satisfy United States immigration authorities. 4-Canadian citizens are required to hold a passport and visa upon entering the United States. The only change in the border regulations is the requirement that Canadians hold passports when? traveling in the United States. Documen- tary identification and naturalization papers have been necessary in the past. The war has not changed Canada. Its hos- pitality to the American visitor continues. Signs along the highways, placards in store windows. and advertisements in newspapers welcome the traveler: Border officials are courteous and pa- tient. The Government has kept prices down. In fact, Americans this year will find that their money will go farther than ever because of the 10 per cent exchange in their favor. And to Canada, American tourist dollars mean ex- change for much-needed wartime purchases in the United States. With European travel cut off, Canada is a logical vacation ground for tourists seeking a change from the United States. The war has not changed the Old World atmosphere of French Canada. Nor has it altered the snow- capped mountains, flashing glaciers, and spark- ling lakes farther west. The typically english cities of Victoria and Vancouver continue to re- flect the peace and charm of old. Americans traveling in Canada this year not only arei further cementing the friendly rela. tions that have marked a century and a quarter of United States and Canadian history, but financially they are aiding the British Empire in its battle for 'self-preservation anid for the protection of democracy as a way of living. - Christian Science Monitor Ann Arbor Weather mChicago Style ... YOU CAN GET more weather for your money in Chicago than anywhere else in America. Last week shivering Southern- ers in seersuckers edged close to the walls of buildings as they walked along Michigan Avenue seeking shelter from the chilly blasts of Lake Michigan. This week, as this is written, every Chicagoan feels like a wet sponge. A shift of the wind, however, will send us pawing into the moth balls for the topcoat. We are no better satisfied with our infinite variety than is San Francisco, where it's always chilly, or Kansas City, where it's as hot as the hinges of Hades or cold as a ticket on Bimelech. Our identity has never been much of a secret. With this column, advocating opposition to an act now pending before Congress we wish to drop even the small protection we have hither- to enjoyed. The name is John Schwarzwalder, alumnus of this University. we urge you to read the following column. It is by far the most im- portant thing we have ever said. WE ARE OPPOSED to the new conscription bill about to be passed by the Congress of the United States. We are opposed to it all alone, it would appear, in an unfriendly world. We are opposed to it on grounds ranging from the personal to the universal. We are opposed to it because we feel that this country has more to lose than to gain by it. Let us explain. We are not opposed to registration of man power. We are not opposed to training for the home defenses insofar as this can be done. We feel that if all the tremendous propaganda power of the federal government is incapable of ac- complishing its defense ends without this act, then something had better be done about the federal government. The section that particularly stirs our ire is the one that states that all young men between 21 and 30 are to be called and that approxi- mately one tenth of them are to be trained whether they like it or not. This is further modified to state that all workers in."war prep- aration industries" are to be exempted, all men with dependents and all members of the proper churches are to be exempted. In other words stu- dents and the unemployed are going to consti- tute the first batch of cannon fodder. It's just too bad, boys, but if your relatives don't own a metal-working company or two where you can be slugged on the pay-roll in some "vital" ca- pacity, or if you decided to engage in some non- mechanical job, or if you have the bad luck to be without a job you get trained first and killed first. It's too bad, but we can't interrupt production for your rights. ?[HAT is our first objection. Like most of the rest of the laws of this country at the mo- ment, the poor are going to be hit harder by this one than the rich, and the unemployed are go- ing to be hit hardest of all. Our second objection is equally pertinent and even more general. Our grandfather came to the U.S. from Germany to escape the military training which had taken so much of his life and threatened to take so much of his son's lives. Our great-grandfather came to this country from Ireland in order that his sons might not be impressed into the British service. This country was founded by lib- erty-loving men and wome'n who hated the very thought of compulsory military train- ing. What a hollow mockery this law makes of all that. NOW, FRIENDS, is the time to fight this law. Now is the time to write and telegraph and petition your congressman and senators against this law. Men like Vandenberg and Wheeler and Dewey and many another are already opposed to this law. Their only fear is that the country is against them and, being politicians, they fear to face the tide. Convince them that the coun- try is not behind this discriminatory, unfair, carelessly-drawn and inept act. It can be beaten. We have never been a political propagandist but if it will help, send your queries and com- ments here to us and we will see that they get to the proper sources. This law has got to be licked. This business of discrimination has got to end. We object to a law which hits the poor harder than the rich, which deprives them alike of life, liberty and the pursuit of hap- piness. We object to a law which forces that upon us which our forebears fled Europe to avoid. We object to a law which deprives us alike of our opportunity to earn a living and our right to vote. We object to a law which fastens the chain of tyranny around the neck of the American people in the guise of protecting that liberty. Join this fight, join this protest. The hour is not yet come when we must give up our liberty to protect it. The time is not yet ripe when we must die to insure no more death to others. Add your voice to those who hate tyranny, domestic as well as foreign. Pick up your courage and join us. If you have not enough courage for this, how will you feel later? The hour is come to fight, to fight against tyranny not in the armed forces but in the halls of Congress. The fight can be won but you must help. Join in our protest now. City Life Incident.®. In a city of Detroit's size every now and then someone does something which must be re- buked as a violation of a necessary rule of con- duct but which, on the other hand, is com- mendable. Such was the case of the DPW man who, after being fired by his boss and having nothing to do, opened a fire hydrant and gave several scores of the neighborhood's children a chance to splash around in the cooling water on a sizzling hot day. Give him a light rap on each knuckle with a light ruler, then restore him to his job.

DAILY OFFICIAL BULLETIN 0 WASHINGTON--Inside fact regarding the scathing State Department blast at Soviet Rus- sia for seizing the Baltic states was that it was drafted largely in Hyde Park, and that Ambassador William Bullitt had a lot to do with the drafting. Under Secretary of State Welles merely acted as the mouthpiece. The State Department had written a state- ment criticizing Russia's seizure of Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia, and sent it to Hyde Park for approval. Here Bill Bullitt, ex-Ambassador to Russia who now hates everything about it, completely rewrote the statement, putting in some of its most pungent phrases. The incident is significant, for two reasons: 1st, it illustrates how the President and his favorite ambassador act as a super-State De- partment; and 2nd, it indicates that despite the increasing belligerency of Japan, the Roose- velt Administration is loath to warm up to its most logical ally in the Pacific, Soviet Russia. The closeness of the Bullitt-Roosevelt tie-up has become rather embarrassing to the rest of the State Department. For instance, following Bullitt's return from Europe last week he did not even visit the State Department. He went straight to the White House, and after a week- end there, accompanied the President to Hyde Park. Russia-U.S. Allies? All of this demonstrates the fact that the United States, if it is not to be left entirely alone in the Pacific, must move quickly and must se- cure friends. To date, there are only two poten- tial friends worth worrying about. 1, is Great Britain, which in fact is America's Soviet Russia in the first place, and apparently he still has the last word on the country he now hates so bit- terly. So probably there will be no warm- ing up to Russia, no matter what Japan does in the Pacific. New Alliance A new Workers Alliance (union of WPA workers) is quietly in the mak- ing. David Lasser, former Alliance presi- dent who resigned in protest against Communist and fellow-traveler dom- ination of the executive board, has received so many pledges of rank- and-file support that he has under- taken to establish an entirely new organization. Three days after he quit, Lasser had received more than 1,000 letters from Alliance members and local leaders urging a new union. Lasser's resignation apparently was a blow to the left-wing leaders. They had secretly planned to seize com- plete control of the Alliance at its national convention, originally sche- duled for July 11. But his bolt and open charge that they were Reds upset this scheme, and they post- poned the convention to August 28. Mail Bag S. A. V. Atlanta-The most effec- tive Negro in the AAA service, accord- ing to officials here, is Mrs. Jennie B. Moton, widow of the former Presi- dent of Tuskegee University. She works in the field house, handling complaints and explaining the pro-
