But if not, the five young men and two young women--wil! set out in May anyway, self-financed and dis- tributing information from the federal centennial commission -and the Canadian government travel bureau. The leader of the group is Ken Swaisland, 24, a dark haired, nattily - dressed agency copy writer. By Christmas last year he and his friend Ray Smith, 24, had saved up several thousand dollars for a round-the-world junket. Blonde, moustached Ray is a reporter for the Tor- onto Telegram. They decided to apply for ap- proval, but not money, from the --three centennial commission. In Ot- tawa in February, Commis- sioner John Fisher gave his blessing and the promise of all the pins, flags and posters they could use.

TORONTO (CP)--A comfort- ing letter to a Scottish family from an outspoken Anglican clergyman, made public today, tells how its immigrant son got into narcotics trouble in Tor- onto's Bohemian Yorkville sec- tion. The letter, signed by Rev. Sidney G. West, director of the Anglican diocesan correctional chaplaincy in Toronto, is pub- lished in the letters-to-the-editor columns of The Globe and Mail. It names no names but con- tains some ironic comments on Ryerson Institute of Technology. the beat generation, Canadian Help To Manage Her Debts | Received By Nashville Mother NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP)--A Nashville mother, who sent her young daughter to a loan com- pany which had garnished her wages, says she has received enough financial help since then to allow her to manage her debts. Right now, Wanda Lee Thomp- son said, her chief concern is re- gaining custody of her daughter, Teresa Lynn, 5, who was turned over to juvenile authorities when Mrs. Thompson, 27, took her unusual action. The little blonde girl arrived by taxi alone last Thursday at the downtown office of Century Finance Co., with this note pinned to her dress: "Here is my baby. Since you took my cheque, you can take care of her 'till I'm able to." Bill McMaster, manager of the loan office, called police, who turned the little girl over to juvenile authorities. They, in turn, let the girl live with Mrs. Thompson's aunt pending an April 11 hearing on a_ neglect charge filed against the mother. RECEIVED HELP Mrs. Thompson, who said "things just seemed to be mounting up," received finan- cial help from as far away as Oregon with encouraging tele- phone calls from all parts of the The result, she said, will be that her next two pay cheques from Werthan Bag Co., where she works, will be garnished-- but she hopes to pay off the bal- ance of her loan at the rate of $11 a month. She said she owed the finance company $108 at the time the cheque was garnished. State law exempts $17.50 a week, plus $2.50 for each depen- dent--$20 in Mrs. Thompson's case--from garnishment. Mrs. Thompson said she feels now that sending the girl to the loan company was a mistake, and said she will "do everything in my power to get my baby back." Letter To Scottish Family Tells Of Son In Drug Crisis correctional institutions and law enforcement. The son, 23, and a five-year veteran of the Royal Air Force, who came to Canada 11 months ago, was sentenced to a year definite and a year indetermi- nate for marijuana trafficking. The chaplain wrote: "About three months ago he came to Toronto, and was at- tracted to a highly - advertised part of the city called Yorkville which was a place of boutiques of the tourist - attracting type which has degenerated into a haunt of rebels against what they call 'the establishment'-- people who don't particularly want to work, and arty types who seem to think that real cul- tural achievement goes with long hair and dirt... ." "Among his 'friends' were some people of the police who were working undercover," Mr. West went on. "These are oddly called 'members of the _ morality squad.'"' Your son did not know them for what they are. One of them gave your son $10 and asked him if he could get him some marijuana. Your son goodnaturedly did so and was arrested for trafficking. The police of course were not ac- cused of contributing to delin- quency." CONSOLES PARENTS In asking the parents not to worry, Mr. West said: "We have a lot of fine people} in government and in the po- lice, but . - we Canadians have a thriving prison business going and only occasionally take an intelligent alternative to putting someone in prison."
