« Ralph Cowan‘s contention that it is high timé fof the Federal government to set up a criminal injuries compenâ€" sation board makes a lot of sense. Too often we think, so much conâ€" cern is given to reform the criminal who has kille(!}the father of five or the pervert who sexually assaults a sixâ€"yearâ€"old, that no one really cares about the great harm that the guilty party has done. The member of parliament for York Humber is perfectly correct in accusing the Federal government of putting the cart before the horse in the issue of capital punishment. Said Cowan to the red faces in charge of this country: "The Federal Cabinet, which is so anxious to make the life of a gonvicted murderer serene, quiet and peaceful could not care less about the victim‘s family and about those who suffer, through no fault of their own, from the crime.of the criminal." 249â€"9301 While Prime ~Minister Pearson and Cabinet do not like to be singled out and criticized like this, back benchers in virtually all parties of the Comâ€" mons endorsed Cowan‘s urgent plea for a Federal criminal injuries comâ€" pensation board.

The caption under the picture reads: "No thanks . . . Early this year, I wrote the three American Quakers who moved to a little Indian village to teach the people how to wuwv-wummAmmm- at;nmn farm machinery, a school, running water and vastly improved crop yields were some of the things that the villagers established and acquired for themselves when only For the first time since England began to pillage India two centuries before, the men, women and children began togoto?dwihfiflhtlu‘ But after two years of unprecedented prosperity, two of the three Quakers had to return to America and five years later, the remaining Quaker and all the villagers were again nearly starving to death. _ â€" oi in # Why? Because the landless peasants found that # was pointless to apply their newly |yearned technology to imâ€" prove the yield of the soil when the hon. . landlord never failed to increase the rent to make himself richer. In other words, what is the use of slugging your guts out to make some fat slob even fatter? Now the Family Herald recognizes this central truth and reason for starvation too. Without apology. I reproduce the Herald‘s editorial enâ€" titled: "Food and Development: Lost Initiative." Like most of its predecessors, this year‘s global report on "TThe State of m and Agriculture" from FAO is somg thing less than ch 1 reading. Farmers in particular will appreciate its message that widespread poor harvests in iwo successive years, 1965 and 1966, have wiped out the painâ€" ful gains of 10 years efforts to increase world food proâ€" duction at a faster rate than world population growth, From their personal experience most farmers in Canada know that the elements can still conspire effectively against even the most modern techniques of agricuiture, let alone the primitive systems employed in much of the world. "‘But this global picture, discouraging as it is, does not really pinpoint an even more critical situation. On a regionâ€" al basis, it is the developing countries whose agricultural production has stagnated or declined, and the developed nations where it has forged ahead again. For developing nations this can only bring a decline in foreign earnings from agricultural exports and increased éxpenditures on food imports. "Foreign assistance to these developing nations has inâ€" creased steadily in recent years, both in monetary and prarâ€" tical values. The developed nations are gradually dropping the ‘"handout" approach to foreign aid, which was often little more than a means to get rid of their own surpluses, THEY USE CAMOUFLAGE in favor of technical assistance for selfâ€"help schemes in underâ€"developed countries. FAO‘s World Food Program and the United States‘ Food for Peace plan are but two examples. The inputs of modern agriculture â€" good seed, fertilizers, pest and disease control measures â€" are beâ€" coming more common in underâ€"developed countries. ‘Then why aren‘t things moving faster? ~ ‘"In a special section this year‘s FAOQ report offers a disâ€" turbing ingight into the reasons for this failure to make the most of modern techniques. "What advantage, for instance, does a Peruvian shareâ€" cropper see in employing the miracles, to him, of fertilizer and pesticides, if he works under a land tenure system in which the major share of the improved yield accrues to an absentee landlord? And why should a Burmese peasant be enthralled by an irrigation project if he must borrow money at unsurious rates to equip his land for it when the local market where he sells his produce reacts to increaséd yields with cutâ€"fate prices? The simple fact is that in far too many developing nations land tenure, marketing, and agricultural credit system# do not encourage peasant farmers to accept modern farming techniques. All of these are deeply imbedded in political structures. They are really problems for. domestic solution. Advice may be welcomed; interference is not. "Unhappily for the western democracies, our record of performance in advising and/or interfering has left in many developing countries the distinct impression that we are more closely allied with those interests who have opposed land reform and marketing improvement than with those who have aspiread to shake off the trappings of the colonial system. â€" In many of these nations, the leadership initiative has gone ‘by default to the communistic bloc whose emissaries have more accurately gauged the nature of nationalistie ambitions. Much of the unrest in Africa, Latin America and Southeast Asia stems directly from these causes. The chaiâ€" lenge to western democracies is to show clearly by their performance where their sympathies lie. Unless and until they do, they have little reason to expect these uncommitâ€" ted millions to regard western political and econontic sysâ€" tems as desirable models to follow." 162â€"3621 Here comes the boys with a sackful of those delicious Jane St. (S. of Hwy. 401) 241â€"9771 No Cooking Toâ€"nite * V _ PURE BEEF CHARCOAL BROILED
