The publishers of The New International are determined to make every effort to obtain a revocation of the order of the Canadian Customs authorities, so that the review, which to our knowledge, is now being permitted legal entry into every other part of the British Empire, may be available to Canadian readers. A Canadian attorney has been advised of the prohibition order and the next necessary measures are now being taken.
