[RCMP Head Angered'

By Magazine's Story

OTTAWA (CW—RCMP Com- missioner C. W. Harvison has replied angrily to what he calls “misleading and confusing" statements in a Maclean’s mag- azine article about the work of the force’s directorate of se- curity and intelligence.

"Th article contains 501 many errors. untruths and half- truths that some comment froml me seems necessary,” Commis-f sioner Harvison writes in a let-} ter to the author of the article; Sidney Katz.

The letter, released Monday by ; the RCMP. says Justice Minis-1 ter Fleming shares the commis-I sioner's views and that the let-i ter was written and sent t ' Katz with the minister's approval." I

The article, entitled Inside Canada's Secret Police, ap- pears in the April 20 issue of MacLean’s along with an editor- ial signed by Ken Lefolii, editor of the weekly magazine.

Commissioner Harvison says the article “contains fabrica- tions and half-truths."

Taking issue with several statements in the magazine, the head of the federal police force notes one saying that for 20 years, RCMP S and I men each year have visited and ques- tioned a 74 - year - old Regina wildow who is a “Christian Pac- i st."

Sub's Garbled Messages Indicated Trouble Aboard

PORTSMOUTH, N.H. (AP)— The illnfated nuclear submarine Thresher, experiencing some un- defined trouble far beneath the Atlantic, sent two messages— both garbled—as she fought to regain the surface, a U.S. Na court of inquiry learned Mon-

day.

The blast of air into her bal- last tanks as she sought buoy- ancy drowned out a message transmitted by hydrophone. the skipper of the surface escort vessel Skylark testified.

Lt.-Cmdr. Stanley W. Hecker, 36, of Brooklyn, N.Y., testified Thresher signalled she was go- ing down for her deep-dive tests.

Then at 9:12 am. last Wed- nesday came this message-

“Experiencing minor problem . . . (a pause) . . . have positive angle . . . (another pause) . . .

attempting to blow."

He said half-dozen men on the bridge of the Skylark then heard the sound of air rushing into Thresher’s ballast tanks. ’i‘h sound obscured another voice message from the submarine.

Then came another message,. with two or three words garb- led, whioh ended “. . . test depth."

Becker said at that point he had the hydrophone man ask Thresher "are you in control?” REPEATED QUESTION

When there was no answer. he testified he took the micro- phone and repeated the ques- tion three times.

Hecker said Thresher's last known position was about 3,400 yards from his ship and he was concerned that if she surfaced

a .

Hecker's navigator, Lieut. James C. Watson, testified Sat- he heard sounds which he recognized as those of

“a ship breaking up—like a. compartment collapsing." He descr’ the sound as “a muted dull thud."

Watson said he was familiar with the sound from Second World War days.

In Washington, the navy said its top admiral knew nothing of those underwater sounds until Watson testified Saturday.

Admiral George W. Anderson. chief of naval operations, told a press conference Thursday, hours after Thresher vanished in the Atlantic with 129 men aboard, that no unusual noises had been heard following res~ her's message that she was try-

ing to blow her ballast tanks to , rface. :

su

Rear-Admiral John 8. Mc- Cain Jr., navy drief of informa-i tion, said Monday the navy ini Washington "absolutely did not know of the sounds" until Wat- son’s testimony.

Cain said he would make no] judgment why hours elapsed between the sink-I ing and the first alert from Sky- i lark submarine headquarters at New London.

Becker testified Monday it was : ’ m. last Wednesday that he dropped a series of small underwater charges as a to Thresher to come to the surface His last contact with the submarine was at 9:17

.m.

It was 11:04 am. w h en Hecker notified submarine con- trol headquarters at New Lon- don that he had lost contact with Thresher.

The T h r e s h e r apparently dropped in the sea to come to rest somewhere on the bottom in 8,400 feet of water.

Hecker testified he then began a search, expanding it outwards, in hopes of sighting the subma- rine.

“This is fabrication on the part of someone,” the sioner writes. “It is simply un-

case whereas you do mention names in other cases through- out your article."

Maclean’s also cites the case of a man, aged 27 in 1952, who

and a series of jobs and subse- quently discovered the RCMP had branded him as “a poor se- curity risk."

The magazine adds that then- premicr T. C. Douglas of Sas-

katchewan (now Ne Demo- cratic Party leader) inquired and was told that the young.

I man had incorrectly been listed

as secretary of a Communist} youth organization in Regina,i when he actually had been sec-i retary of the Regina CCF party| youth group. i

“The man in question was an active member of the Commu-I nist party,” replies the com-f missioner. “The file has beeni reviewed many times and on; several occasions by ministers; of justice."

Anyway, adds the commis- sioner, the case occurred in 1948—not 1952, as the magazine

said.

At another point in his letter, Commissioner Harvison quotes the following statement in the

Best Sources, Magazine Says

TORONTO (CP) — Maclean’s magazine said Monday an ar- ticle by Sidney Katz in the April 20 issue, de ing with the RCMPs directorate of security and intelligence, was based on “the most reliable sources avai-’ lable."

Commissioner C. W. Harvison had termed the article “misleading and confusing."

Maclean's said the RCMP was invited to comment “on many

the specific examples in- cluded in the article."

". . . he opportunity, many cases, was refused."

magazine said a com- plete discussion of security a tivities of the RCMP is difficult “because of the traditional re- fusal of the RCMP to supply in- ormation about the specific cases which attract public in- crest."

“A more complete and frank discussion of RCMP security ac- tivities as well as a clear state- ment of government policy
