JUNE 3772754 Mr. Massey's Appeal In his eloquent plea for national unity before the Association of Can- adian Clubs on Monday evening, the Right Hon. Vincent Massey warn- ed that “if ever there was a time for patience and restraint it is now." He firmly believed that the major- ity of people in both French and Eng- lish-speaking Canada desire to work together for the well-being of their country; but there are extremists. and extremists on each side repro- duced their kind on the other. It is their harsh voices we hear too of- ten. If without patience on both sides we reach an impasse, there will be no retreat. But to urge patience. Mr. Mas- sey insisted, is not to advocate sil- ence. In Canada individuals often suffer from a reluctance to state their view, to say what they think. “It is easy for us, when confronted by some controversial subject to de- clare an unwillingness to get mixed up in the controversy." he added. "But we should all get ‘mixed up' in discussions of great issues. If more moderate men would talk and could be heard in this national de- bate, we would move. surely, and ‘perhaps even more swiftly. towards a solution of our problems. The citizen's duty is to participate." At one. point in his address the distinguished speaker was critical of the news media for giving so much publicity to the harsh voices of extremists. and to acts of vio- lence which have taken place from time to time. We appreciate his concern in this matter. but we do not think the criticism is valid. or that anything would be gained by underplaying or suppressing the kind of news to which he took exception. It is not publicized, as he sug- gested. because “sensation sells well." but because sensation is un- fortunately inherent in the very concept of news. This is a fact of which the extremists are well aware. The concept. has been changed in totalitarian countries to suit the de- mands of the state, but in democra- cies this is not regarded as a desir- able objective. Most Canadian newspapers, how- ever, have exercised a responsibil- ity in the matter that might surprise the casual reader. They have sought consistently. where they could, to give emphasis to the voices of mod- eration and restraint, and to give their own support editorially to what these voices are saying. But as Mr. Massey himself pointed out. they are too seldom raised effective- ly by responsible citizens. in reply to the more strident propaganda of the minority. When this minority suc- ceeds in getting sounding boards in Parliament, in provincial legislat- ures, and at various public func- tions throughout the country. it is surely not the newspapers that y' should be blamed for the resulting disharmony. Peace And Progress The United States has announc- ‘ed that while continuing its pro- gram of military aid to Nationalist China it is terminating its economic ,jlaealetance after June, 1965. This aaaietance took the form of grants . and long-term development loans to j. : growth the country has achieved. The statement released front 1 Washington shows at. what flamen- doua coat to American moans-e untIACominunie‘t?~ I _ « " Ina has been hr” mm 1949 the Un- wind New Frank Walker ‘ Street.

I It is gratifying to note the ‘suc- I cess of this pump-priming economi- ‘ callj'. Since 1953 the country’s I gross national product has increas- ed at the rate of 6 per cent a year. Agricultural production has in- creased .1 per cent annually. and in- I dustrial production between 10 and 12 per cent. Reflecting this out- standing growth, the country's ex- port earnings rose ll per cent in 1962 and 50 per cent in 1963. (‘hiang has not always shown gratitude for American aid by re- fraining from the kind of sabre- rattling that gives Washington. and Washington's allies, the jitters. He keeps vaunling his intention to in- vade Communist China, making pro— vocativc gestures and stirring up trouble. Castro in Cuba is a mere gadt’ly to this fiery old man, whose phantusies of revenge have never deserted him. But it is for defensive. not aggressive purposes that Amer- ican military aid is being continued, and it should be Washington's res- ponsibilin to see that it is so ex- pended. Perhaps. with tho economic im- provement now achieved in Nation- alist China. its rulcr's thoughts will be diverted more to the welfare of his people. and less to seeking re- vival a struggle that could plunge the world into another war. Safety Code Needed Hon. .1. Angus MacLean has call- ed attention in Parliament to the need for a national safety code with respect to automobiles. It seems that the federal govern- ment is not contemplating legisla- tion of this kind because of the au- thority now being exercised under various provincial highway traffic acts. But the 4.367 Canadian fatal- ities from motor traffic accidents last year afford that many con- vincing reasons ’why we should have a national code, and why this matter should be a federal responsibility. Mr. MacLean cited a movement underway in the United States to establish a code of this kind, and in both countries, it would seem, the ,need has become. urgent. One rea- son. in'the neighboring republic at least, is the extremely high horse- power cngines that are now being offered by the auto industry as options in compact and intermedi- ate cars. Reference to the danger inher- ent in this practice was made the other day by President Nicholas Dekker, of the National Automobile Underwriters Association. Sales emphasis, he said. is aimed directly at the youth market, and “these speedy and p0wcrt’ul vehicles in the hands of drivers exercising poor judgment are a hazard to our al- ready crowded highways.” He in- dicated that the association. which represents a large number of stock- holder owned insurance companies in rate setting. was studying the question of higher rates to reflect this hazard. This is but one aspect of a situa- tion that is tending to get. out of hand in both countries. If it can be remedied by a national safety code. surely the objections in the way could easily be straightened out. If, as Mr. MacLean suggested. it can be done in Canada by amend- ing the Criminal Code. the sooner Parliament gets round to doing it the better.

EDITORIAL NOTE The West. warns an exchange, can pour billions in foreign aid into the eo-called underdeveloped nations and still lose the ideological strug- gle. The reason for this is aim- ple, but all too often ignored; there Is no necessary correlation between material efforts and the impact of Ideas. . _ ISLAND SCENE: MONTAGUE RIVER HABEAS CORPUS Important Step Last Friday afternoon the House of Commons took an Im porlanl stop to extend the civil rights of Canadians. It passed a private member‘s hill which inserted thrcc words. "or habcas corpus". into Section 691 of tho Criminal Codc. and 1 thereby made possible from a habcas corpus decision by a judce. Habcas corpus Is one of tux. most ancient wrils of English law. and an cssonlial ch Canadians. perhaps. coulo define II. but they know that i! is lIlPll‘ final defense arbitrary imprisonment. Literally it is "have the body." It means that. whon it is suspcrtrd that a pcr~ son is ht‘ll‘l‘.‘ improperly detain ed. an application can bc math. to a high-court judge. and the judge can command the person in whose custody the prisoner is to produce lmmcdiatcly the aflall‘lbl founda- ‘ tion of our system of justice. . translated. . obe and Mail.

At one time a person making an application under habeas I corpus could, if the first judge l to whom he applied refused w I reléase him. continue to make I applications to judge afte judge. Then an English deci- sion indicated that this was an incorrect assumption of the part of the law. lawyers and judzt's and five years ago Chief Jus- tice J. C.

[he mi of producing nuclear power both safely and relatively inex- pensively has progressed grcal- ly in the last couple in years. One of the most import- ant advanccs has progressed greatly in the last couple of years. Our of the most imporl- . ant advances has been the real- ization by scientists that practi~ cal nuclear power plants must [01 I be of large size. The idea that I small plants to serve individual I communities could be built has , now been dropped. The proposed Ontario project I for instance. would use indivi- I dual plants generating 500,001] I kilowatts. about equal to the ca- pacity of this province's Peace . River hydro installation. Tue I complete ntario installation I would comprise four 500.000-kil owatts. Initially two pl 3 n t s I would be constructed at a cost estimated at $235 millions. The initial costs seems low In comparison with hydro powcr but it does not take into account the high cost of the fashionable material which will be used as fuel for the reactors. Also not taken into account in the cost of constructing the Ontario plant is the vast amount of money ex- pended by the crown-owned Atu- I pendants. All letters publlehed are aub- mic Energy of Canada In re- search and design. The impact of this proposal on plans for constructing additinu- . al conventional electrical gener- ating capacity will be consider- ed now. and those only in areas I where relatively low demand would make a large-scale nu- clear plant non-economical. Needed: A Rainmaker Milwaukee The drrdze hurriedly scoop- ing mud from Milwaukee har- hor the other day. to let a ship get away from its berth with a pay load, was one small symp- tom of the worrisome tro if file that faces the whole vast basin of the Great Lakes. The record low water Is worsening not only ship channels but also power supply and the effects of pollu- ‘ tion. all three. In Canada the Conservative opposition is absurdly trying to ' blame naturc's four year shori- age of precipitation on the Lib- eral government.

The necessities of the case are so far reaching that s o m e ‘ schemes deemed visionary in I the past must be seriously con- sidered. The most likely such I scheme is to divert the Cana- I dian river systems now flowing I uselessly into the arctic waters mp them over the height of land to reach I of James bay and I Georgian Bay and the St. aw- l I I pu rence instead. Since this would turn Canadian water Into com- mon property of the two count ries. it would take a lot of diplo- macy as well as engineering and money.

REMOVES LIMITATION The amendment to the Crim- Inal Code which was passed or. Friday removes this limitation and permits appeal in habeas corpus matters. The measure must still pass the Senate which 10 years ago rejected a similar bill. At that time. however, the judge-to-judge procedure w a 3 still in good standing. and the Senate felt that It obviated he need for appeal. In the present . circumstances the need for it:- peal becomes apparent. and it is inconceivable that the Sen- ate will again reject the bill. Canadians have been UCL- concerncd of late about the way in which governments or crca tures of governments have teuJ ed to invade and abridge the rig is of individuals. It was In. concern which prompted t“ e storm which defeated the DOIILE- state bill. The public has be- gun to fear that final decision on too many of its affairs has been handed to boards, com- missions and individuals. that the freedoms of citizens are being impaired. What the House of Commons did on Friday was a most vici- comc rcvcrsal of this danger- ous trend. and it was an act of the House as a whole. A pri- vate member moved the amendment. all parties support- ed It. the Justice Minister gave the Government's approval. the bill was passed. and one of 0L“ basic rights was vastly streng- thened. The nation. which has not always viewcd this Parlia- ment with the greatest appro- val. can find no fault here.

Nehru’s By Jo Canadian In a real sense. there will never be a successor for Jaw- aharlal Nehru: The next Indian prime minis- ter—however he turns out to be —may be the wisest of states- men but it fell to Nehru to per- form .a role unique in his coun- try and the world. This certainly seems the con- sensus In London where writers have extolled Nehru to the realm of political seinthood for his feet of fostering democratic principles among India‘s mil- lions followinz independence from Britain. ' The loss of the English-edu- cated Nehru is saddening in a particularly personal way to the British because they regarded him as one of themselves—one, however. with subtle eastern gifts not bestowed on men of the seph est “By the time Harrow.

Unique Role MeoSween Press staff Writer And Anthony Wedgwood Benn, Labor member of Parliament. expresses another thought in the Manchester Guardian: “It Is sometimes said that Britain liberated India. In fact. the very reverse Is the truth. Gandhi and Nehru liberated us. By winning their freedom. they freed us m the ignorance and prejudice that lay behind the myth of Britain's Imperial des- tiny." Nehru was a towering figure at Commonwealth prime minis- Iers' conferences. In the councils of Afro-Asian nations he was for years a sort of father-figure—- not surprisingly. since he rep- resent a land with twice the population of all Africa.
