Those in attendance are experts in I their fields, leading officials in our I provincial and fcdcral departments. While their discussions are techni- cal, their conclusions, drafted in the form of resolutions or sugges- , g tions, are highly practical and of- - ten help to shape govern ncnt poli- cies dealing with agricultural prob- lems. This is a good time to repeat what we have said before, that our farmers are fortunate in the high calibre of our agricultural officials, In the zeal they show in their work and in the close cooperation unin- tained in the various departments, federal and provincial. The pro- guess we have made in seed potato certification, high grade hog pro- duction and many other fields is in large measure due to their untiring activities. Perhaps no 0 t h e r branch of the civil service has made ” such I valuable contribution to our national economy. Our Province is l privileged to have these profession- al man here in such representative numbers this week. Gain In Maiurily "A movement is on foot in NPW England Democratic circles to win the Vice-Presidential nomination for Senator John F. Kennedy of Massachusetts. But. for one thing, this news item would be of little general interest. Senator Kennedy Is a man of many parts and of gen- erally rccognlzcd inte-:,rity who might, be expcctcd to fill anylad- ministrative post to which he might be called with distinction anti hon- our; hut of course, these qualifica- tions arc shared by a grcat. many of his Senatorial c:iIl1a:i!:. The one thing that makes the neivs im- portant is Mr. Kennc:ly's religious affiliation. lie is a Roman Catholic; and not since lll'..lVl whcn Alfrcd Smith rcccivcd th 9 Democratic Prcsidcntial nominatim his a1V mcmhcr of that Cllurch barn con- sidcrcd for cithcr of the two top national posts. Mr. Snith's dofo-at at that time was attrioltcl pa 'tly to rcligious prejudice, aided and abetted by the Klu Klux Klan. Thcrc was probably a good tlcal to ; that view, -for Mr. Smith had a I splendid political record and was V I widely respected. In initiating the "Kennedy for . ,Vice President" campaign, Gover- 3 ' 'nor Ribicoff of Connecticut-I member of the Jewish faith, inci- dentally-expressed th e opinion gthat the Senator's reliziu; szatus ;; would not weaken the party's f, lflhlncos of winning in November; f'lor", said he, "the United States. liII,;plncd in maturity since 1928". .

As for Roman Catholicism be- ing a ”minority” in the United States, it is so only in the sense that its adherents number less than the total number of adherents to Protestantism in all its branches. As a single religious body it is by far the biggest in the country. That. however, is simply a statisti- cal matter. The sigiiificarit thing is that religious prcjuiicx IlllS d.2:lin- cd to the point iVIlPl"3 practical politicians feel safe in ignoring it. That point was rcacncd in this country several years ago when the present Primc llinistcr was clccted leader of Lhc l.iht-ral Party. There were a good many Cana- dians at that time who wondered whether Mr. St. 1..aurcnt's rcligious affiliation W 0 u I d lwcloud the party's prospects. That it has not done so has been proved beyond a doubt A Look Back Everyone hopes that Soviet government leaders have been con- verted to good sense and that the fine conciliatory phrases which are coming out of Moscow with almost indecent haste are not to) g) )l to be true. It is well, though, to look back a bit and see whether past strategy has any light to shed on present professions of goodwill. For instance, in 19531 a leading Communist official, Dimitri Manuil- sky, who at the time was a lecturer at the Lenin School of Political Warfare in Moscow, had this to say: ”War to thc hilt l)L'.I.W8Cll com- munism and capitalism is inevi- table. Today, of course, we are not strong enough to attack. Our time will come in 20 or 30 years. The bourgeoisie will have to be put to sleep, so we will begin by launching the most spectacular peace move- ment on record. There will be electrifying ovcrtoncs arrl unheard of concessions. The capitalist, coun- tries, stupid and decadent, will re- joice to co-operate in their own destruction. They will lcap at an- other chance to be friends. As soon asthcir guard is down, we shall smash them with our clenched fist”. It is to be noted that the evil report about Stalin which Com- munist Party head Krushchev is spreading abroad is occupied en- tirely with the late dictator's ad- ministrative methods. Nowhere is there a word of censure rczarding his adherence to the doctrines of Lenin, so ably and frankly express- ed by Professor Manuilsky 23 years ago.

In matters of death there is no compromise. When a person has been put. to death, the penalty ls absolute. But while advocating that the death penalty be retained. the com- mittcc has also ucommcnded two very important things. It has rec- ommended. in the first place. that death be brought about painlessly and with immediate unconscious ness. And, in the second place, it rccoimncnds that further precau- tions be taken to make certain of thc guilt of the accused person. Those rccommcndations will nnl. of course remove the objections of those who believe that capital punishment, in any form, is moral- ly indefensible and practically use- less. But they go a long way to- wards rcmoviml two classes of im- pnrtant. if secondary, objections to capital punishment These are the objections that the method of carrying out executions by haug- ing is opcn to bungling and to pro- l longed suffering. and that there is always the possibility that an inno- ccnt person may be executed. ELECTROCUTION It would seem that the method proposcd by the commiltee-exe- cutlon by electricity-is almost en- I lirely frce from inefficiency. where I proper precautions are taken. More- r over. it would sccm to be literally without pain. If dcath is to remain among the pcualtics of the law. this is death in its least agonizing or 3 vindictive form. The sccond problem. that of pre- venting a miscarriage of justice, is more difficult to deal with. But the committce has shown In admir- able timroiuzhness in its efforts to I strcmzlhcn the existing safeguards. I If the committee's recommenda- tions are accepted, it would no I lomzcr be possible for a person to plead guilty to a murder. Every I case would have to he proved with- v out assistance. as it ucrc, from the accused. I The number of cast-s in which the accuscd plcarls guilty may not hc many. but it is in such cases that painstaking proof is most nec- essary. to make surc that some compulsion is not drivinll 8 P9!" son to his own sclf-(lcslrnction. The committee also recommends , that the fullest freedom to appeal y the decision of the court should be allowcd in trials for murder. .y pcrson sentenced to death for murder ought to have an automat- ic right In appeal to II provincial (lourl. of ('.'nmda. wotlioul the legal limitations that now cxist. To nssurp still Iurlhcr that fhc accused pcrsnn will havc cvrry op portunity to prove his innocence. the comnnttce recommends that I the comm-tcnl council should be paid from the govcrnmcnt funds. f)nIy in this way may an Indigent person hc assured equality in I I matter of Illp and dcath. I ADDED (QUARANTEE I As an added guarantee to the fairness in the courts. this commit- I tcc recommends that the accused I and his council should be in I I I I formed by the prosecution of all the evidence that will be present- ed, In order that he may have every chance to disprove that evi- rlcnce, if possible. Even the fl nanclal moans of gathcring evi- dence in his defence. and the police personnel for investigations on his bchalf. ought to be provided. If all those thoughtful recom- mcdalions are Idoplcd. the Do!- I stbillty of an innocent person being put to death would greatly dimin- ish. But certain difficulties would remain. For Jone thing the adoption of , some of those recommendation! I is dependcnt upon prnvlnclnl In- ' tlmrltles. But the altitude of pro vlncinl nulhorillcs may dl'fer from province to province. so that unl formlly of practice might be lack in g. . For another thing, the committee removes all possibility of constan- lng degras of in I use If mufder. The dl action between murder and manslaughter ll be llveved to be pm!-and clear. Int wltbla lbs dcfldlln d nurlc. Under Shadow Of Death Montreal Gazette no degrees of guilt are to be allowcd murder is murder. and the dcalth penalty is mandatory upon the judge. The only mitigration is that per sons under 18 could not be sen- tenced to death. and the practice of commuting sentence for murder- ers under 21 would be continued. Yet it would seem though all mur- ders are equally abhorrent, not all murderers have the same degree of moral guilt. But the committee not only rejects as impracticable any attempt to define degrees of murder in law: it also reject: the idea that judges or juries should be permitted any discretion as to the sentence. At the same time however, the committee evidently felt that do greos of guilt are still possible Ind that some discretion as to sentence is still desirable. But it would lim- it the exercise of that discretion to the executive-presumably to the minister of Justice. It may be questioned, however, whether a Minister of Justice would necessarily have the time or the judicial qualifications to be vest.- ed with the sole exercise of so Im porlant I power. In some ways it. is even an unfair responsibility to place solely upon him. On the whole, however, the com- mittee tin its majority findings) has evidently been Inspired with the solemnity of death-whether it be the death of the victim or the death of his ” and sentenc- ed murderer. II. has endeavored in s spirit of responsibility, to strike a just balance between the two solemnities. The general tenor of the report probably represents the present feelings of most Canadians upon this painful and difficult problem.
