Quiries at the Canadian ministry of
justice warrant the statement that
the statement that the Dominion gov.
ernment will do all in it's power to
eliminate participation from this side
or the border in violations of the
prohibition law of the United States.
Ideas like the following are found in
the minds of the Canadian judiciary:
ID That all civilized states are in
terested in the sanctity of law and
morally bound to aid one another. so
lar as possible, in maintaining public
respect for it,
(2) That. nevertheless, every nation,
IN the last resort. must enforce it's
own laws, and that the United States
is presumed to be as capable of doing
this as in any other country.
cd That Canada. with the best will
IN the world cannot be expected TO
violate Its own laws-that is, abridge
the legal rights of it's own citizens
In order to uphold American laws
(4) That Legislators should move
cautiously when considering proposed
laws likely to a rouse the hostility
and provoke the disobedience of mil
lions or persons of proved law-abid-
ing predisposition.
Lawmakers at Fault.
