DR. MONICA FELTON

Dr. Felton
ban scored

B.C. Peace Council has pro-
tested to Prime Minister St:
Laurent against the undemo-

cratic banning from Canada of
the distinguished British peace
leader, Dr. Monica Felton.

“We are proceeding with Dr.
Felton’s meeting at Exhibition
Gardens on May 29 in the firm
belief that the developing pro-
test movement will enable her
to attend,” said Ray Gardner,
secretary of B.C. Peace Council.

(Vancouver Labor Council,
delegates Tuesday this week
voted to protest to Ottawa

against the barring of Dr. Fel-
ton.)

B.C. Peace Council has called
upon “all persons and all
ganizations which cherish free-
dom and denocracy” to request
Prime Minister St. Laurent to re-
verse the government’s decision.
