Liberty .

With the current increase in the number of sirikes in tran-

_ Sportation, both national and local, and involving planes and brains as well as bus and subway facilities, Is it wise lo keep emphasizing ‘that “we're not doing ton badly,” in these near-emergency ‘situations? Rather shouldn't press, TV radio be emphasizing thal the “‘liberties” which are being( taken with the much-boasted principle of liberty, not only by sttiking employees, but by many

*. ‘minority groups which take the law into their own hands, represent

a definite threat lo the very freedom which the word liberty ~ proclaims? Today in practise our so-called liberty is beginning to border upon license, with little regard lo the fact that there can be no liberty unless it is ‘accompanied by a necessary sense of responsibility.

- With whe increasing complete disregard for the rights and welfare of others, (here will come a time when the majority of

persons will rebel against such license, and stricter legal prohibitions will be inflated which could lead fo. delual cur- tallments of our hard-won freedom. ; So et Unless we Jearn Lo accept responsibility for the welfare of others,” and place limitations on the exercise of our liberties, more drastic ones may be forced upon us, . :

So let's not talk of how well we did, or could do again under strike conditions, but concentrate instead upon what more we can do to prevent such emergencies recurring. .

Both employers and employees need to realize and accept the © responsibility for the inconvenience, discomfort and actual hard- . ship they are causing loathers. Not “my rights” but freedom to act within the limits of the righls of the general public should be the accepted criterion. ‘ ;

- His thoughts net only are imaginative and .worthy of discussion bul should be given ‘serious consideration.

Mr. Frank makes good sense when he points oul that the Horseshoe Area is a natural catchbasin, and that instead of

: directing the water away from

its natural flow it would be wise lo co-operate with nalure and use this fact 1o advantage.

remember when I. first came .

out from the old country some Canadians tried to get it across to me ‘that ‘arguments were impolite, An argument doesn't...

Bul you do believe in a system, “= God's system.'; What system is that Debbie?‘ Wilh me, it is the " other way around. J do believe © ina Man chairman Jessy and]: don't believe in any system. Hitler called his system, Gods system and the name “The Almighty” was always on his lips. Do you know why I do not believe inany system? Because any political sytem, no matter how good it is, will witimately collapse and fail if not that Man Jesus is in control, During 2000 years of christianity, Jesus was ‘ never really generally accepted as the spiritual leader of the nations, And thal.is why our socalled western . christian civilization and ‘democracy failed so often. This is not the

".. fault of Jesus, it is the fault of

“nominal ‘christians and non christians alike in western lands to try to da things without Him. Jesus Himself said: “Apart from Me you can do

_ nothing’? (lasting creative and good) -. ot

Debbie, I'am glad to learn thal you believe in God. (But so does the Devil, the Bible says}. Jesus also has a place in your life, And you séem lo honour the Word of Ged. You are not an agnostic or an atheist like:

know whal: “Saviour? means, do you?’ We: need a personal liberation (of sin) before we can start thinking ‘about liberating polilical and social systems.

PAST PROBLEMS

In looking back over the record of relations between the - Federal Government and Canada's Indian people, there is much - to regret. Errors of the past have caused many of the economic -. and social problems which face today’s 270,474 Registered: - Indians; Chief among these ore: unresolved land claims; inade- ~: quate’ housing, and with substandard living conditions; high unemployment on and off reserves; unacceptably high rates of infant mortality and other. serious health problems; severe alcoholism ‘and: disproportionate numbers of Indians in jails. These are the root causes of the frustrations and anxieties which have resulted in actions being taken by some Indian people in recent months. ; ‘ rn

SIGNIFICANT CHANGES © eho

The past ten years have seen significant changes, Two years ago, there was very limited local government at (he reserve . © levél, Indians were.not represented on provincial school boards ( and Indian parents had little ‘say -in their children’s education. :: There were few, if any, Indian businessmen, Indian associations » had no adequate funds or resources to create national programs ot policies. Today, in accord with Indian leaders, Band councils -: are recognized: as a local level of government and transfer of control of local-affairs to Band councils, which commenced in” 1972-73, is progressing rapidly. Some 440 of the 565 Bands across. Canada are administering and managing Federal Govern ment appropriation funds-in excess of $40,000,000 in addition to Band funds latalling some $11,000,000. me

' Federal Government programs to assist native people hay expanded ‘rapidly in recent years in the areas of health, employ ment assistance and cultural advancement. The 1974-75 budge of the Indian Affairs Program is approximately $360 milli Itincludes: _ ns

— $25.5 million in housing subsidies for Indians Living or: reserves. soe Snes -— $155 million for
