Check Insurance<br />

Coverage Before<br />

Driving Into Canada<br />

Chicago Motor Club members who<br />

plan to travel north across the border<br />

for a Canadian vacation are warned<br />

that failure to provide adequate evidence<br />

of insurance following an accident<br />

can result in suspension of<br />

driving privileges. In some provinces<br />

and in the Yukon Territory, such<br />

failure also brings impoundment of<br />

the vehicle.<br />

In the provinces of Alberta, British<br />

Columbia, Manitoba, Newfoundland,<br />

New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and<br />

Prince Edward Island, evidence of<br />

Financial Responsibility is acceptable<br />

in the form of a Motor Vehicle Liability<br />

Insurance Card (commonly<br />

known as a Pink Card) authorized by<br />

the particular province concerned.<br />

While other Canadian provinces do<br />

not require a "Pink Card," it is recommended<br />

that members carry some<br />

evidence of the required insurance<br />

coverage.<br />

It should be particularly noted that<br />

severaly provinces have Financial Responsibility<br />

laws that require Bodily<br />

Injury Liablity and Property Damage<br />

Liability limits of $35,000. Alberta,<br />

British Columbia, Manitoba, Ontario,<br />

Quebec, and Saskatchewan all require<br />

this minimum $35,000 liability limit.<br />

Commenting on the situation, Neil<br />

C. Russell, executive vice president of<br />

the Chicago Motor Club, said:<br />

"Although Canada does not have a<br />

compulsory insurance law in the<br />

United States sense, compliance with<br />

the $35,000 requirements is strongly<br />

advisable for U.S. travelers."<br />

Russell emphasized that Canada<br />

does not consider $10,000-$20,000<br />

Bodily Injury Liability and $5,000<br />

Property Damage as equivalent to<br />

the required $35,000 limit, but that<br />

limits of $35,000-35,000-35,000 are acceptable.<br />

Russell stressed that members planning<br />

Canadian trips should secure in<br />

advance from their insurance agents<br />

the "Pink Cards" which show proof<br />

of the required insurance coverage.<br />

IDEAS INSPIRE ACTION<br />

Ideas rule the world. If ideas and<br />

ideals were kept on the highest plane,<br />

appropriate action would naturally<br />

follow. — William O. Douglas.<br />

Will I Lose My Citizenship<br />

If I Marry an Alien<br />

and Live in His Country?<br />

v^uesuon: i am an rvmericdii en<br />

/:eii, naving oeen worn in uie unue<br />

states, but intend to marry an anee<br />

ana thereatter live in my husuarm<br />

cuumry. Vviu J. lose my <strong>American</strong> cm<br />

zenship by doing thisr<br />

An swer:o, you will not lose you<br />

<strong>American</strong> citizenship by marrying ai<br />

alien, or by living abroad. If you wisr<br />

to retain your <strong>American</strong> citizenship<br />

however, you must be careful not to<br />

commit any of the acts which wouk<br />

result in its loss, such as voting in ;<br />

political election in foreign state, tak<br />

ing an oath of allegiance to foreigr<br />

state, or being naturalized in a foreign<br />

state.<br />

ING <strong>American</strong> citizen loses his or hei<br />

citizenship by marrying an alien. Laving<br />

abroad, however, is a. diiterent<br />

matter Here a different rule applies<br />

to native born and naturalized citizens.<br />

Prolonged residence abroad does<br />

not affect the citizenship of native<br />

born citizen. This is not true, however,<br />

of a naturalized citizen. It the<br />

latter resides continuosly for five years<br />

in any foreign country or for three<br />

years in the foreign country in which<br />

he was born, or of which he was<br />

formerly a national, he ill lose his<br />

<strong>American</strong> citizenship. There are certain<br />

exceptions to this, which are<br />

enumerated in the law: among the<br />

exceptions are naturalized citizens who<br />

are in the employ of the United<br />

States government or of an <strong>American</strong><br />

organization; or who are prevented<br />

from returning to the United States<br />

by their own ill health, or the ill<br />

health or death o a parent, spouse,<br />

for child, who cannot be brought to<br />

the United States and whose condition<br />

requires the naturalized citizen's personal<br />

care and attendance.<br />

MANLINESS — FEMININITY<br />

In the wonder of marriage, manliness<br />

is discowered as something acting<br />

in concert with femininity, not as<br />

something different than, in isolation<br />

How Can I Help My<br />

Son Get Back His<br />

<strong>American</strong> Citizenship?<br />

Question: My son was 18 years old<br />

when the Second World War broke<br />

out. I sent him to relatives in South<br />

<strong>American</strong> because I did not wish him<br />

to be drafted into the Army. I am<br />

now an old man and am anxious to<br />

have my son return here, but some<br />

time ago he was advised that his departure<br />

from the United States was<br />

in violation of criminal law and also<br />

that he had lost citizenship because<br />

he left the United States to evade<br />

the draft. Is there anything i can do<br />

to help him to get his citizenship<br />

Dack, since it was really my mistake<br />

tnat he left the country.<br />

Aswer: The United States Supreme<br />

^ountr recently declared unconstitutional<br />

that provision of the law under<br />

«vhich you son lost his citizenship.<br />

Your son should go to the nearest<br />

Jnited States Consulate and apply for<br />

United States passport. It may take<br />

ome time, and possibly even litigaion<br />

to have his citizenship reinstat-<br />

1. But if while he was abroad he<br />

.id not commit any act which exatriated<br />

him as for instance voting in<br />

foreign political election or swearig<br />

an oath of alligience to another<br />

overnment, he will in the end unoubtedly<br />

be reinstated as a United<br />

tates citizen. It is possible, howver,<br />

that upon return he will be<br />

u,bject to criminal prosecutoion as<br />

draft evader.<br />
