ORONO WEEKLY TIMES, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 24th, 1971 O-RO NO WEE KLY TIîi ES MURDER IN THE STREETS The startiing figures on the rising tide of crimes of violence in Canada certainly don't cali for casual dismissal. * The rate of murder - according to Statisties Canada -lhas jumpedt by 53 per cent in five years while 'attempted murder doubied in the samne period. Assaultswere up by 52 per cent; robberies by 83 per cent and rape.Up 48 pýer cent. For the sake of the record, the figures are open to some qualifications. There hàs been a change in the basis of murder before the law. Before September, 1961, al murder was considered capital and the oniy sentence was the death penalty. Stili, tfhere is no room for compiacency. Tbose who clamor for the return of the death sentence because of these statistics should remember one thing - statistics are not avaiabie for the samne period from other, countries where the death penalty lias been maintained. Barry Matther, MP, Surrey-White Rock, B.C., (and: member of the New Democratic Party) recentiy, issued- this warning - Canadians must take a new look at these shocking tatistics, make a fresh approach to 'understanding the problem and coping with it. Otherwise, our cities - like their U.S. counterparts __wiii be unsafe to waik in at night; that is when thei cit izens, knowing they have no pro- tection, take the iaw into their hands in tthe forin of guns. Ail won't agree with Mr. Mather's assessment of the reai cause of. the probiem. (Fifty per cent of the North American population is performing work that is non- essential - we continue to operate in the main on the oid basis of scarcity - as though goodsand services were in, short suppiy, he says). What's the cure? He wants us tW, look again at the ideas of "our new friends", the Soviet Union and the Sociaiist Repubiic of Yugosiavia on this issue. President Tito says: "Our democracy is different than yours. We have a wîde circle of peple in our democracy. The destructive one we don't have damocracy.'l The Soviet Union puts it t}ý1s way: In oi,,r country we have freedom from hooligans, not freedom for hoojigans."
