The First Requisite

The popular assumption in the West is that, although Soviet Russia has more man- powerito mobilize in time of war than has the L'nited States, superiority in industrial and scientific potential is definitely with the latter country. Recently, at a meet- ing of experts in the States, this view was called into question; indeed, some of the exports stated quite openly that the view is not only without evidence to back it up bill is a source of very great danger in the' present situation. Actually, according to figures brought out at the meeting, Russia now has nearly as many atomic engineers as the t'iii1ed States and is turning them otit at a much faster rate. in the United States the number of eligiiicering graduates in 19:34 fell to lEl,Uotl from the peak of So,- tltttt in ltlbtl; in the same period the Rus- sian output rose from 28.000 to .33,tltlt).

were followedvwhether inevitably or by coincidence has never been determined-by the mysterious death of thousands of sheep that had been grazing hundreds of miles

For the last several weeks experts havei been travelling from one isolated commu- nity to another assuring the people that they need have no fear of "fall-out radia- tion” from the forthcoming explosions. Per- sons w ho have inquired why Nevada should be preferred to the Pacific for these tests have been told that their state ”is cheaper by many millions of dollars.” Perhaps the tiring words of the experts will calm ithe fears of Nevadans; perhaps they will

This, of course, does not tell the whole story, since Britain, Canada, and other Western countries, are producing engineers

and technicians of their own; but it can be assumed that the countries in the Soviet bloc, notably Red China and East Germany, are adding their quotas to the Russian total, a circumstance which does not bright- en the picture appreciably from the West's . point of view. ' The figures and their implications serve to emphasize a fundamental difference be- tween democratic and totalitarian prac- tices in governmental and economic fields. I In the United States and the other free nations there is notvand cannot be. if the freedom of the individual is to be honour- ed--any bureaucratic agency with author- ity to place students in this or that school with or without their consent. in Russia this is standard practice.

How to reverse the trend towards Rus- sian superiority in this vital field, without having to resort to the sort of govern- mental control which is foreign to the dem- ocratic way of life, is a problem of real magnitude; but certainly the security. and perhaps the survival of Western freedom. depends in large measure on its solution. The first requisite. as the experts have pointed otil. is it better understanding of the real situation among citizens of all Vfestern countries. This means an end to complacency. always the foe of prepared- ness. and security.

Defense Obligations

The idisenliower budget for next year contemplates a total expenditure of 3260 hil-

is for army, iiaiy and air force. ln Canada. of total expenditures in the fiscal year end- ed .Vlarch Lil. 19.34, defence took 321.583 million otil of it-1 'l.)(l million, or 43 per cent. There was a time, notes The Printed Vvord, when residents of the United States, malty of whom are still living. were boast- ing that their Congress was a Billion-Dot lar Congrcss. Soon thci'caltci', the billion dollars cxpcndcd in two years became ,-i billion dollars expended in Ilflf' ycar. Tbosc were the days. The United States army comprised a group of smart cavalry units and some infantry, to a total of 23,()t)tl per- sons in uniform. And the highest peace- time rank was that of brigadicr-gcncral. The navy. while it may have been fancy. was not pretentious and perhaps ranked fourth in the world after Britain, Germany and France.

Not many citizcnr of the U. S. would lee any connection between this economy of government expenditure and the Monroe Doctrine. The Monroe Doctrine, it will be recalled, was it device. attributed to Presi- dent Monroe. whereby the United States declared to the world that it would not per- mit any foreign (that is, European) power to establish more territorial rights in this hemisphere than it had up to that time. T'he serious historian has believed that this doctrine was suggested to the United States in 1823 by Lord Canning. Its en- forcement for more than a hundred years was made possible by the existence of the British navy, supporting it policy of the British foreign office and the British col- Ilial office.

'l'lie point of all this is that Canada, too, has benefited from the Monroe Doctrine, certainly Q I) 1914, and now benefits Iufther from the fact that the United Item, to defend itself, must defend Can- nh.

According to Mr. Frank T. Sherk, presi- dent of the Canadian Food Processors As- sociation, sales in retail food stores in Can- ada have climbed to 229 per cent since 1941, while population growth in the same per- iod was only 22 per cent. The reasons for this difference are first, that the typical Canadian family today can afford to eat better than it did fourteen years ago. See- ondly. preserved and pre-packaged foods that were scarcely dreamed of in 1941 are commonplace on the store shelves today.

Before freedom of the press be- lt-anie established the press had to ,contend with three different forms -of restriction.

MlI.TON'S PROTEST

it was against this systciii that the poet John Milton wrotc his lclassic protest. "Areopagitira". tSaid Milton "Give me liberty to know. to iilter and to argue freely laccording to conscience. above all lnthcr liberties."

Miltonis protests were ineffective at the time. The British licensing laws were not allowed to lapse until 1692. long after his dcntli.

Another phase of the striigglc was for the right of the press to information on public affairs. spe- iciflcally the right to report dc- bntes in Parliament. Parliamcni at first did not take kindly to letting reporters tell the world what was said within its walls. Parliament itself was engaged in a struggle with the king and didn't want the king to know what was said in their sessions because the king still possessed powers to discipline members who did not behave as he wished.

LONG STRUGGLE

The struggle of the press for the right to report Parliamentary pro- ceeding went on in the second half of the lath century and was characterized by numerous ar- rests, fines and punishments tn- Tllcted on reporters and edttbrs of the pioneer newspapers and news- letters. The press had its cham- pions wlthtii Parliament Itself and there were numerous debates be- fore it became accepted that news- paper: have a right to report Par- liamentary debates without regu- lation or censorship.

Almost coincident with this de- velopment came the extension of the franchise and the change in the British political system from the rule of the few to the rule of the many.

If freedom of the press is part ,nf the unwritten constitution lclcnrly it can't be restricted by Parliament or a provincial legisla- ttiirc.

This view found support in at

least one official statement from lbc government of Canada, At the second General Assembly of the United Nations the Canadian dele- gate said: , "The people and the government of my country believe that free- dom of information and freedom of the press are not only basic freedoms in themselves but are essential to the exercise of the other basic freedoms.
