Canada to Welcome
Refuges Children
From War Zones
Plans Made to Provide
Homes if Allies Order
Exodus to Dominion
By the Associated Press.
OTTAWA, June 6.—Canada Is
readv to provide havens for British
and refugee children from the Euro
pean war zones if the British and
French governments agree to their
exodus.
In London Undersecretary for Do
minions G. H. Shakespeare said
yesterday he hoped to say shortly
whether children and other civilians
: withdrawn from war-threatened
areas would be sent to Canada and
other British possessions on a vol
untary basis.
A refugee conference here has
drawn ur> a broad immigration plan |
to provide homes in the Dominion
for children from the war zones.
French Problem Greater.
T. A. Crerar. Mines and Resources
Minister who called the conference,
announced that the nlan visualizes
distribution of the children through
out Canada as quickly as possible
after their arrival to restore them
to normal life in private homes.
The real refugee problem is in
France. Crerar said, and there are !
difficulties in reaching children
there. He announced that the Do
minion. the Provinces and Child
Welfare and other organizations'
were co-operating in the plan.
It is understood that a number
of British and French adults al
ready are en route to Canada, pay
ing their own way. Immigration
officials said they would be wel
comed.
Arrangements Outlined.
Mr. Crerar disclosed these tenta
tive assignments under the plan:
The immigration branch of the
Mines and Resources Department
would obtain all family particulars
of the children.
The Pensions and National Health
Department would look after medi
cal examinations overseas and
health supervision during the At
lantic crossing and train journeys
in Canada.
Provincial authorities and social
agencies would handle arrange
ments when the children disembark.
The provinces would be the re
sponsible authority but voluntary
welfare groups would assist in dis
tributing and settling the children.
Exodus Would Be Greatest j
Since Moses Fled Egypt
NEW YORK, June 6 (iT*).—If the
i threat of total warfare against the
; British Isles forces the evacuation
of women and children to empire
outposts, such as Canada, the Allies
would be prepared to handle the
greatest mass exodus since Moses
led 2,000.000 men, women and chil
dren out of Egypt.
Such a tremendous undertaking
would in comparison make the re
i moval of 335.000 Allied troops from
I Flanders, as perilous and as stagger
ing as it was, appear to be a simple
task.
The means of escape for England's
non-combatants would be hundreds
| of rusty tramp freighters and one
| time passenger liners now engaged
in the secretive task of ferrying
troops and supplies to England and
France from colonial possessions,
particularly Canada.
These ghostlike craft have formed
an almost endless chain between
Halifax and England. Their dingy
cargo holds have carried millions of
dollars W'orth of American planes,
I foods and other supplies over 3,000
! miles of ocean, daring gale, fog, sleet,
j snow and the ever-present threat of
Nazi U-boat and raider.
If called upon to evacuate women
and children, their present duties
would continue as mast of them now
came back partially empty.
Besides their own millions now
endangered. England and France
have the problem of finding havens
for thousands more who have fled
from the path of the German Army
' m its marches in Central and North
j ern Europe.
There was no figure possible for
the number of persons who might be
evacuated, but at the start of the
war approximately 3.000.000 children,
nursing mothers and old men were
removed from England's cities to'
rural areas. London alone sent al- ,
most 1.500,000 children away, but
more than half of them returned !
i later.
The flight of the Jews from Egypt
was the greatest exodus ever record
ed. The Bible's book of exodus says
Moses led 600,000 men; the Jewish
encyclopedia says that with the
women and children the host num
bered 2,000,000.

Gov. James Urges Congress
To Check U. S. Dictatorship
By the Associated Press.
HARRISBURG, Pa., June 6.—
Gov. Arthur H. James, describing
Congress as “the barrier between
the New Dealers and a nameless ex
periment in streamlined dictator
ship,” urged it last night to stay in
session “throughout the present
crisis."
The Republican executive in a
Nation-wide radio address called
for a “blizzard" of post cards, letters,
telegrams and telephone calls from
constituents demanding their rep
resentatives continue their work in
Washington.
Gov. James asserted the first
move toward a dictatorship “was
disguised as a coalition, under
which all criticism and resistance
to the executive power was to have
bepn silenced.”
“A second,” he said, “was con
tained in the broad hints for Con
gress to adjourn and let the Presi
dent be Congress.
“The third was in the demand by
the Chief Executive that Congress
and the States surrender their con
stitutional control of thp militia and
turn over to him the Army which
belongs to the people of this Na
tion.”
The Governor described Con
gress as the “anvil,” and a flood of
communications from the citizensI
as the “hammer,” with which “to
crush the New Deal's power-plot
ting forever out of the national
life.”
