THE
RIGHT
TO
CHOOSE
THlT
Englishman's
much-vnuntod
'
personal
liberty
is
in
as
much
dangeivtdday
as
when
Hitler's
armies
were
poised
across
the
channel,
is
the
ppinidi.of
some
thinking
Britons.
St.
Tohn
Ervine,
distinguished
playwright,
put
the
threat
of
nationalisation
in
this
picturesque
language
to
a'
mass
demonstration
in
London:
j
j
"These
are
times
when
the
Englishman's
home,
which
was
once
his
castle,
is
jn
danger
of
becoming
his
concentration
camp.
I
fully
expect
every
morning
to;find
in
the
paper
news
that
some
,
ciftzen
ha,
been
arrested
because
he
was
tofad
in"iossession
of
private
property.
If
-the
Wise
Virgins
were
alive
today
they
would
be
arrested
for
hoarding
petrol
and
thir
lamps
would
be
confiscated
and
giten
tpjtHe
Foolish
Virgins.
j
"Sometimes
I
think,
when
I
survey
my
country
and
look
at
the
queer
things
it
Jis
doing,
that
we
are
all
like
a
pack
of
greyhounds
running
after
a
faked
hare
which
we
have
not
any
hope
of
catching,
arjd
if
we
-could
catch
it,
it
would
not
be
worth
catching.

"If
I
-we're
asked
to
say
what
liberty
is
I
would
say
shortly
it
is
the
right
of
chjolce
to
make
a
choice.
If
I
cannot
choose
whether
I
shall
stay
here
or
go
tlfere,
but'
must
be
directed
there
or
directed
to
stay
here,
I
am
a
slave.
j
"A
slave
is
a
very
secure
person,
but
hj
has
no
rights.
The
safest,
the
most
carefully
guarded,
the
securest
people
in
this
cityi
today
are
in
Wormwood
Scrubs.
They

.carefully

They
'are

they

they

Strong
and
able-bidied

are
so
determined
to

of

they

They

full-dress
Victoria
Day
since
its
removal
from
the
list
of
statutory
holidays
in
1912.
The
Turkish
ambassador
at
Queen
Victoria's
coronation
in
1838
who
is
said
to
have
stood
amazed,
muttering
"all
this
for
a
woman!"
would
have
marvelled
even
more
had
he
lived
to
see
the
birthday
of
the
"Good
Queen"
marked
as
a
national
holiday
more
than
100
years
later
in
a
dominion
thousands
of
miles
away.
The
birthday
was
observed
for
the
first
time
in
Canada
in
1S3S
under
inauspicious
circumstances
as
some
militia
units
paraded
in
their
drill
grounds
while
others
patrolled
the
United
States
border
to
guard
against
raids
from
New
York
state
by
sympathizers
of
the
exiled
William
Lyon
Mackenzie
whose
rebellion
had
been
crushed
six
months
before.
Canada
alone
in
the
British
Empire
honors
the
day
as
a
separate
public
holiday
in
honor
of
Victoria.
In
other
dominions
and
colonies
and
in
Britain
itself
it
is
merged
with
Empire
Day,
which
also
originated
in
Canada
and
is
celebrated
here
on
the
school
day
immediately
preceding
the
24th.
It
was
just
75
years
ago
tomorrow
in
Beaverton,
Ont.,
that
a
neatly-dressed
school
choir,
gathered
to
celebrate
the
queen's
52nd
birthday,
sang
a
patriotic
song
composed
by
their
teacher
for
the
occasion.
The
song,
"The
Maple
Leaf
Forever,"
by
Alexander
Muir
has
been
sung
in
thousands
of
schools
since
and
has
won
recognition
as
a
Canadian
national
song
second
only
to
"0

Victoria
Day
was
not
recognized
as
an
official
holiday
until
after
the
queen's
death
in
1901,
when
Parliament
passed
a
motion
by
Sir
Wilfrid
Laurier
that
May
24
be
designated
as
an
annual
holiday
to
commemorate
the
late
queen.
