War Contract Frauds

During the 1939-45 war, C. W.
Harvison investigated several cases of
fraud in war contracts. One engine
works, paid on the basis of cost plus
10 per cent, had defrauded Canada
of $150,000 by padding its payrolls
with names of workmen who had been
fired or had never existed. Other war-
time cases involved forged ration
coupons.

In 1946, he and M. F. E.
Anthony, now chief of police in
Edmonton, worked together on
the spy case touched off by Igor
Gouzenko. He and Anthony in-
terrogated Gouzenko and a num-
ber of other persons, including
Fred Rose, M.P., who went to
prison as a Russian spy.

C. W. Harvison was a Corporal in
1932, a Sergeant in 1937; Sub-Inspector
(Criminal Investigation) 1938; trans-
ferred to Winnipeg, 1943; Superin-
tendent, 1947; to Vancouver, 1950, as
Officer Commanding the detachment,
before the transfer of policing from
Provincial Police to R.C.M.P.

In August, 1950, he came to head-
quarters as Officer in Charge of the
Criminal Investigation Bureau, until
1953, when he was promoted Assistant
Commissioner, made Officer Com-
manding “O” Division, Toronto.
Then he went to Ottawa as Director
of Operations and Criminal Investiga-
tion: and in 1955 became Director of
the Special Branch—Intelligence.

He came to Victoria last summer as
Officer Commanding “E” Division—
which is all of B.C.

Comparatively few people know
about another of his hobbies—help-
ing delinquents. He has worked
almost as hard to set offenders on the
right path as he worked to arrest
them.

He busied himself in spare time
arranging games and entertainment
for the inmates of Shawbridge Boys’
Farm, Quebec-——a young offenders’
institution.

Occasional visitors at his office were
ex-convicts he had taken under his
wing—-including some that he had
sent to jail himself. He got jobs for
them, and as an associate recalls, the
outcome was often that they kept
going straight. * *
