Paid Fines

The White House said Browder
had paid fines of $1,000. II said
that the sentence imposed upon
him was longer than tho usual
sentence imposed for offenses in
volving the fraudulent obtaining
and use Of passports"
"The President believes" the
statement continued, "that the
principle Of obedience TO law has
been sufficiently indicated by
the punishment already suffered
by Browder and that the COM
mutation of his sentence which
brings about his release at this
time, just shortly before he will
become eligible for parole. will
have a tendency to promote ma
tional unity and allay any feel
ing which may exist In some
minds that the unusually long
sentence I'm Browder's case was
by way Of penalty imposed upon
him because of his political
views"

Sums Up Ofense

In summing up the offense fol-
which Browder was imprisoned the
White House said:
cit appears that in April, 1887,
and again In February, 1899,
Browder, on board steamship In
New York Harbor, returning
from Europe, had used, for the
purpose of identifying himself
and proving his American citi-
zenship. a passport which had
been issued TO him In 1884 and
extended upon a renewal appli-
cation until Sept. I, 1888.
"The false statement which
formed the basis of the. indict-
ment as shown by the evidence
was that Browder had In 1921.
1927 and 1881, obtained pass
ports under assumed names by
means Of false statements, and
that In procuring the passport
issued 90 him In 1894 In his own
name he stated under oath that
no passport had previously been
issued TO him."

i. S. and Canada
Must Be Friends

NOTHING that would tend to strain relations
~ between the two most mutually friendly coun-
tries in the word-the United States and Canada
should be permitted or tolerated.
Since the war certain unforeseen irritations
have manifested themselves which should never
have come to life
s First of all, there was the squabbe over the
projected highway to Alaska through the North
west Territory which the governor of the latter
seemed reluctant to assent to.
Alaska is of equal value in war as bulkhead
against danger to Canada as it is to the U. "A.
1t is hard to understand why these differ
ences ever arose.
Secondly, there is the question of passports
from Canada into the United States.
Every Canadian who now visits the United
States for 20 days must obtain passport issued
by his own government with a United States visa
or renewable border-line crossing card.
Hence that which used to be practically one
country is now frontier"
A DISPATCH from Ottawa in the New York
Times says that
For the first time in history the United
States is being regarded as foreign country, and
just at time when relations should be closer than
ever and every possible freedom of intercourse
should be maintained.
There is a growing feeling in this country
that these precautions and restrictions are far
more serious handicap to the joint effort of the
two countries than they are help to either one.
Almost every day the question of the relations of
the two countries and how they are being injured
by lack of free intercourse is being discussed in
the press"
That is most unfortunate.
AT time when seamless unity is necessary
among the United Nations there arises over the
trivial matter of passports and other minor re-
strictions GOODNESS between Canada and the
United States.
For the purposes of this war and its vital
motives and detectives the two great North Amer
lean democracies should be as ONE.
Passports are of no value between two coun-
tries, for fifth columnists and escaped prisoners
from Canada or the u. S. A. do not use them.
They cross borders by the underground" route.
Let us abolish this frontier" and resume our
previous trustful attitudes.
