As a priest of that part of the Church which Bishop Pike belongs, I feel that I should try to do it, if you will be-so kind as to give me space. First. it must be said with sorrow that the Knights of Columbus in’ Prince Rupert made a serious mistake. J doubt that their efforts to sup- :press the .controversial “Sun- day" ‘show had much . effort; other forces were at work: but it is not unfair to blame them. = However we all make mis- takes; they do, I do, and you do Madam Editor. And if I may say it was one of your mistakes, ance you had done your editor: ial-duty by pointing. out the mistakes of others, then to pro- ceed to belabour them. Second if mist also be said that one is grateful to you for your attempt to report on the actual content of the suppress- ed show. It would be churlish in anyone te complain about your execution of this difficult Order of Dogwood To Former Official Honourable. Clarence Wal- a former. Lieutenant Gover- raf Bfitish .

Third we come to your concluding two para- praphs! In the first of these. you com- plain of being frightened by the Church, and the “whims, idiosyneracies and often un- holy restrictions’ it imposes on the people of Canada I think, Madam Editor, that you should give specific examples of these things before you generalize so. But when you do, be careful; things are not always what they seem to be. If you take such a thing as the suppression of this show for your first example I think you will find that it stems far more from the attempts of pres- sure group to’ undermine ‘our very valuable Canadian Broad- casting Corporation, than it does from the efforts of some church people to impose a cen- sorship. In the second of these par- agraphs (the last in the editor- ial) you reverse your stand. Instead of being frightened ‘by the church you accuse _ the church of “running scared.” Have you never heard of the tens of millions of ordinary Russion Christians who, | after fifty yeats of every .:sort. of persecution, from. crude: terror! ‘to’ the utmost” refinements “of sophisticated police state re- pression, stil] hold to the faith the church? Do you not realize in the’ United- States’ who: pan-* icked at the antics of Bishop Pike and who tried - a heresy hunt, were quickly overruled by the moral cour- the majority of their fellaw U.S. bishops? Have you never sat in the same room with leyside, or Holgar Madsen and watched them; could you say ed"? Have you never joined in the same ‘assembly with any of the major congregations of Terrace; could you look around “running seared”? E think not; these people are not scared; and . these. people are the church. ' people like ‘yourself or myself. we are wrong headed.
