Freedom
In
Democracy
a
THERE
is
far
too
much
negative
talk,
these
days,
about
democracy,
says
a
timely
Free
Press
and
Prairie
Farmer
editorial.
People
are
anxious
to
defend
democracy
against
the
challenge
of
dictatorship
and,
in
their
zeal,
some
well-meaning
people
even
demand
that
communism
be
outlawed
as
if
a
subversive
idea
can
be
put
under
lock
and
key.
Of
course
our
freedom
must
be
protected
against
its
enemies.
But
the
strongest
protection
is
to
serve
democracy
positively
and;
affirmatively
and
to
regard
sell
-government
as
the
highest
form
of
citizenship
In
which
all
who
believe
in
freedom
must
bear
a
part.
Rarely
have
the
principles
of
freedom
in
a
democracy
beea
stated
more
cogently
than
by
Mr.
Justice
Brandeis
of
the-Supreme
Court
of
the
United
States
in
his
judgment
years
ago
in
the
Whitney
vs.
California
case.
Since
this
statement
is
applicable
to
Canada
as
to
the
United
States,
in
this
period
of
strain
and
confusion,
it
is
worth
recalling
now.
"Thoxe

Mr.
Justice
Bi'andiis..

They
valued

both
as

They

and

to
be

Thy

and

to
the
discovery
and

of
-political
truth
;
that
without
free

and
assembly,
discussion
would
be
futile;
that
with
them,
discussion
affords
ordinarily
adequate
protection
against
the
dissemination.

that

that

that

that
the

for

counsels
is
good
ones..
"Believing
in

as
applied
through

discussion,
they
eschewed

by
law
the
aigument

in
its
worst
form.
.Recognizing

amended

so,
that

should
be
guaranteed."
THE
WORD
'BRITISH'
THE
MOVEMENT
to
eliminate
"Dominion,"
from
I
the"
expression,
Dominion
of
Canada
having
failed
does
not
yiean
that
the
general
idea
has
been
abandoned.
While
the
place
of
its
origin,
or
the
identity
of
those
behind
it,'
must
remain
largely
a
matter
of
uncertainty
and
speculation,
there
is
small
doubt
of
its
life
and
vigor.
Now
comes
the
suggestion
that
the
fewer
times
the
word
"British"
is
heard
uttered,
or
seen
in
print
the
better.
For
example,
how
would
"Columbia"
sound,
instead
of
"British
Columbia?"
That
can
be
safely
left
to
the
judgment
and
sentiment
of
the
people
of
this
great
province.
But
the
whole
situation
has
a
subtle,
if
not
sinister,
intimation.
.
t)ne
notices,
just
now,
that
plenty
of
people
living
in
Europe
would
not
have
the
least
objection
to
moving
to
the
Dominion,
and
staying
here,
and
that
many
others,
getting
into'
a
jam,
are
glad
to
seek
British
assistance.
CIVIC
INTEREST
TARLY
INDICATIONS
are
that
there
may
be
a
L
dearth
of
candidates
for
aklermanic
seats
of
which
there
will
be
five
to
fill
at
the
1948
civic
election.
Whatever
the
business
men
may
do,
it
may
be
regarded
as
a
certainty
that
the
labor
people,
who
to
be
congratulated
on
their
consistent
interest
will
be
able
to
find
candidates.
If
these
are
not
acceptable
to
the
business
people,
they
will
either
have
to
find
candidates
of
their
own
or
gracefully
take,
what
are
offered.
Possibly,
the
election
loses
some
interest
because
there
is
no
mayoralty
contest.
But,
after
all,
the
mayor
has
only
one
vote
and
it
is
an
important
election
anyway
for
it
could
well
involve
the
balance
of
control
m
the
council
as
between
the
so-called
"business"
and
"labor"
element
In
addition
to
five
aldermanic
vacancies,
three
school
board
seats
are
to
be
filled..
School
affairs
also
constitute
important
city
business
and
good
material
in
the
direction
of
educational
policy
of
the
city
is
equally
to
be
desired.
There
is
a
grenfdeal
of
talk
about
civic
affair's,
not
without
considerable
criticism.
Active
participation,
rather
than
free
advice
from
the
outside
from
people
who
do
not
share
the
responsibility,
even
if
they
do
pay
the
bills,
is
what
is
required.
