A Wrong Impression on Mrs Zadeh’s Vancouver Visit
The letter criticizes Mrs Zadeh’s views and the charitable groups she met in Vancouver. It argues many organizations do useful work for adults and children with disabilities, eye and ear patients receiving help, and cites Canadian Club as aiding Portage. It questions her belief that North American women should focus more on country and home duties. It warns that neglect at home fuels delinquency and imagines Calcutta’s poverty to frame the issue.

Manitoba seeks two extra judges for Queen's Bench
Lawyers from the provincial Bar Association, Law Society, and the Canadian Bar Association presented a brief to Attorney General Stewart McLean on June 2 requesting two additional judges for Manitoba Court of Queen's Bench. McLean noted cabinet consideration and cost estimates around 30 000 dollars yearly as Bowles says judges are overworked and justice administration is at risk. Saskatchewan already has eight trial judges.
