addison m p 30 days in jail allan m dion 19 of don mills has learned the hard way that its not good practise to take the law into his own hands hell have 30 days in the cooler to think over his mistakes dion was charged may 28th by pc al hudson of the mark- ham twp police with having liquor in a place other than his residence pc hudson saw the accused on a drivein restaurant lot south of richmond hill the officer testified that he ordered dion out of his car found a liquor bottle and placed it on the fender pc hudson then returned to the interior of the car to get two paper cups partially filled with liquid meanwhile dion and two girl companions were standing out side the car dion according 1o the officer made a lunge from the rear of the car to the front fender where he grahhed the bottle and smashed it on the cement he was iminedailely chatged with obstructing a police officer and placed tinder arrest pc hudson said he had seiz ed the bottle an eyewitness william hob- son of richmond hill said he thought when dion made a move that the police officer was going to be attacked he cor roborated the officers testimony and said he helped in picking up the broken pieces of bottle however dion staled that he was merely walking to the po lice cruiser when the bottle fell off as the officer climbed into the car he added that all he heard was the bottle fall and break but swore he didnt see it before the bottle episode pc hudson warned dion thai he would be charged with having liquor and supplying it to minors magistrate o s hollinrake said he was very

show vigor and not j keep mouthing the same old slogans and not to dawdle along in the same old ruts the best governments are those which can best meet the demands and problems of the present government must be organized in such a fashion as to deal most effectively with these demands in respect of this principle history provides ample evidence of the constant revision and revamping of gov ernment agencies very much like the development of the automobile from a somewhat siodgy piece of iron to the streamlined efficient oar tiiat we see on the road today so government in north america has become a streamlined effi cient piece of machinery able to move faster in a better way jt was in recognition of this basic fact which last week in parliament saw acting prinze minister paul martin make a formal statement explaining that the cabinet had decided to advise the queen to agree with the request of the quebec gov ernment for a change in the constitution to limit the powers of quebecs legislative council the tipper house in the provin cial legislature cer and the eyewitness referring to dion the mag istrate added when you thwart officers of the law you get pun ished for it besides the 30 days in jail dion was fined 50 and costs for having liquor the two girls allegedly with dion did not appear in court as this involves change in the british north american act normally such a request would be debated fully in the house of commons and would require the unanimous consent j of all the provinces before it could take effect this is neces- sary procedure when a change i in our constitution would affect i all the provinces however as j mr martin explained since this was a matter of purely provin- cial concern in quebec parlia- j mem nor anv of the provinces should be asked to it in judg- ment on such an issue immediately mr diefenhaker seized upon the occasion to ex hibit all his tremendous oratori- cal powers and charged that the j government was dealing in tin- dert hetable politics with the j quebec government and was embarked on a program which would defeat the stability of cur constitution and traditions the only thing which this fear less tirade proved to me was that mr diefenhaker in no way understands the province of quebec and the way it operates even with fifty members from quebec sitting on the govern ment side mr diefenhaker did not know how to deal with them or their province and today in 19k5 he still doesnt what mr diefenhaker and his sympathizers fail to realize is that upper houses are for the most part institutions of the past and no longer operative in terms of modern democracy they are unrepresentative be cause they are unelectcd to re tain them in this day and age is in lippmanns words to daw- die along in the same old ruts upper houses remain today as remnants of the old family compacts and chateau cliques which existed more than a cen tury ago it was the principle wgfrt wsj fresh frozen foods draffon cantonese chicken dinner

elected represent ative government had been fought for and won upper houses became only places of honour for men who were de serving of political reward basically their junction was to give red stamp approval to bills passed by the elected as sembly and oflentimej served the purpose of giving k second sober look at legislation passed by the lower houses essentially however upper houses are a thing of the past now that representative govern- ment is a fact quebec is the only province which retains an upper house ontario abolished theirs in 1s6t british columbia their upper house in 1r71 fol lowed by manitoba in 1s76 new brunswick in 1s92 prince kd- ward island in 1s93 alberta and saskatchewan in 11105 nova scotia in 1928 and newfound- ian in 194 these were all measures in tune with the times designed to speed up the workings of government it is for this rea son that i see no justification for criticizing quohors desire to limit the powers of their upper house it is a step lone overdue and one which concerns that province alone again 1 believe mr diefenhaker is only using the issue to create unwarranted controversy there is no con ceivable reason why the federal government should oppose this motion which quebec desires formerly other provinces have appealed directly to the queen without even approaching the federal government if anything quebec deserves credit for car rying its case through the prop er channels if this government were charged with attempting to change outmoded traditions then i would agree to that charge progress was never made through clinging desper ately to the past progress only comes through change and to this principle we plead guilty as a people that set out to change the world t think we should like it however difficult the
