Among those taking part was Hon. C. S. MacNaughton, .Hur- on M 4, who, after pointing out that Huron is the largest producing area for white beans in Canada, with 25,840 acres, went on to say, in part: Present indications are that the planted acreage will in- crease sharply this year. Some early plantings have already, been made and with favorable weather, seeding operations will be well underway in the grow- ing areas of Southwestern On, tario by the end of this week. Dealer distributors indicate*an unprecedented demand for seed. Importation,of pedigreed seed for planting purposes shows an increase •of between 30 and 40 per cent over last year, 1964. plant breeding techniques have produced plants which have more of a bush or upright growing character, rather than 'A P. �5. This man has the plan tO keep. your home .comfortable •-all-year.-'roue! of a few years ago. Varieties of white beans can be success- fully grown in areas with 'short- er growing seasons and hich,•, because of the other growing habits to Which I have refer- red', have a much better chance of being harvested before the former hazards of frost aiid prolonged periods of wet weather intervene. These factors would seem to establislf- the trend toward con- tinuing increases in planted ac- reage and yields and .while weather and many factors be- tween planting and harvest must still be reckoned. with— it seems obvious that :the pre- sent and 'foreseeable, future holds promise for greatly in- creased ,production potential. If this can be accepted—and I, as well as many others be- lieve it can—then it -seems to me to be nothing less than prudent to examine our posi- tion. Firstly, home or domestic consumption would appear to have its limits. It has appar- ently levelled off in direct pro- the dwarf or low growing type portion 'to our population crease. At the same time, indi- cated potential production may well exceed domestic require= meats by, greater amounts than ever before. Firstly, the British market can absorb not only presently indicpted production surpluses, but also vastly greater quanti- ties of Ontario white beans if we introduce a few `simple ex- pedients, --one in particular— which will gear us to accom; modate this vast potential mar- ket. • in - Ocularly inipdirtant in a year THIS WEEK and NEXT For an Open Society -By RAY ARGYLE dom as well. u • The press, as the guardian of Prime Minister Pearson was•a free and 'open society, and well advised in putting- thumbs the' watchdog of the perform - down on Justice Minister Fav- ance of public authorities, is of reau's bombshell plan to ban course gravely concerned ' at they publication of names of per- threatened invasion of press sons accused of crimes until freedom. th As it presently stands, the British prefer our beans to those' from any other produc- tion area. They like our • qua1- ity, and they like our grades. In fact; our Canadian grading regulations provide in a large measure for the quality feature to which I have referred. Secondly, and as the Minister pointed out, we have the ad- vantage' of the protection af- fdrded by Commonwealth' pre- ferential tariffs coupled with the preferential position of our Currency versus that of our our principal competitor and the largest prodltcer in the world -the United States, main- ly the to of Michigan. ; - when production appears to be headed for an all time high, moth he>;e and in 'M.ichigari. ft wall be apparent,- I am sure -- that with Michigan dealers now able to trade against .d doilies-' tic floor price already establish- ed --they may very 'Well be hi f he advantageous 'position of being able to. provide for a 'sufficient share of the British market as. to have a serious and prejudicial affect on the marketing of our Ontario crop. The Board has expressed con- cern about the plight of deal- ers who make pre -crop sales -- in 'the event of _total or partial crop failures. I would say with complete conviction that this fear is groundless. The On- taiiio dealer trade are thorough- ly competent to protect them- selves against this probability and 'possibility. , • I say to you, Mr. Chairman, and through you to the House, that I know the dealer trade and that they are by and large completely efficient and reli- able from the standpoint of accumulation, processing and distribution—just the same as our farmer. growers are as good, reliable and efficient in the production field as can be found anywhere. Furthermore, I know that Ontario dealers support the basic principles 'upon which the Ontario Bean Growers .Mar- keting Board was, established. The agricultural industry is the sum of its several parts, each with a closely related re- sponsibility to the other—pro- ducer, gr'ocessor and distribu, tor, as well as -consumer, whe- ther the latter be domestic or foreign. Each has, an equally important role to play, but it. can only be accomplished, on a basis of mutual trust and confidence. The 'difference between.some, and I empha a s e growers, as represent l s y the Board, the dealers 'nd the Minister are small and if resolved -and resolved soon, can only result in a closer, stronger relation- ship of all segments of an im- portant sector of our agricul- tural industry. • ey have been convicted. As crucial as the subject of eIf this had been bbeeut into Press freedom is, however,, per - only ,it would have edon not onal freedom is Leven more im- they a press 'but to freedom of portant. The two go hand in the but to personal free- hand, and society cannot have one without the other. Freedom of the press is a fundamental bulwark against tyranny. When any dictator-` ship seeks to shackle itself on a free people, the press is al- ways the first to come under attack. The background to the Fav- reau threat is that the justice minister, in a well-meaning but ill-advised. fashion, has admit- ted that he is considering re- commending • legislation • which would change the system of re- porting crime and trials in Can- ada. If the justice minister were able to enact- the kind ' of law he has said he is considering, the press, radio and television would be prohibited from us- ing the name of an accused person until he has been con- victed. If he were not convict- ed, according to the justice minister, then the case would never be reported. - Mr. Favreau says such a sys- tem would protect the reputa- tion' of persons accused of crimes and later found inno- cent, but who nevertheless bear the scar of public suspicion. • The tragic fallacy of this argument is .that such a system .would open the way to "secret arrests, star -chamber proceed- ings, indefinite detentions, and unjust convictions of many in- nocent 'people. Under British law, the one great protection which a citizen has against 'the police state is that all trials involving adults must ben conducted in open Court. After arrest, an accused per- son is guaranteed by law of the right of legal counsel, the right to cross-examine his accusers, to appear in court within '1;'4 hours of his arrest, and to a trial by his peers. The only assurance citizens have of such protection is tie right of the, press to report their arrest and the nature of the charges against them. If the, press could not report the laying of charges, , this would mean the pollee could with impunity arrest anyone they wished, on any kind of a trumped-up charge, knowing they would not have to answer to public protestbecause the press would not be able to identify without a conviction. The justice minister is on sounder ground when he talks of revising- the system of re- porting , preliminary , hearings, with particular reference to the publication of allagefi confes- sions. But the fact of the matter is - that there is no real problem in press reporting of trials in Canada anyway. There is lit- tle or no trial by press in this country. There is none of the spectacle which occurs so fre- quently in 'the U.S., for ex- ample, w1pre police will give out the text of alleged confes- sions, and officers will conduct interviews describing how they caught such -and -such a person committing a certain crime. By his threat to change press rules in reporting of court cas- es, the accident-prone justice minister has merely, once more embarrassed the Government, and forced Mr. Pearson into just one One Can t more headlong helpbut wonder how long it will take our prime minister to realize that some of his' ministers are liabilities to good government, incapable of carrying out the roles assigned thefi1.
