SPLENDID NEWS

rhls week is indeed a. red-letter me in the educational history of Prince Edward Island. Tomorrow students and faculty will move into \heir quarters in the magnificent aew Prince of Wales College, which, it is hoped, is destined to tcct-ive many thousands of subse- |uent students and to equip them with the knowledge and culture re- Iuisitc to discharge the highest iutirs of citircnship. The opening of an institution of this kind, carrying on and extending as it will do thc splendid traditions of old Print-c of Wales, is in itself an !\’(‘lll of nuljot" iznporizincc. But lridcrl to this is the welcome news roccivr-rl yesterday from Dr. Keppel, pi-csiticu: of the Cnrncgic Corpor- luoil, of the grunting by the Corp- oration of the sum of $60,000 for library service the Province and 575.000 for the purpose of en'- _ dowlhg a chair of Economics and Sociology at Prince of Wales Col- lcgc, thcsc grants being in addition to the sums previously voted for undergraduate library facilities for Prince of Walcs and St. Dunstan‘: University.

Tho steps leading up to the vot- ing of these magnificent grants by the Cameglc Corporation are re- viewed elsewhere in today's issue. They show that the greatest har- mony and co-operatlon have exist- rd bcivxcen the local nuthoritiesartd Y itlng Corporation representa-

Plea/man's DENIAL"

Our local contemporary profess- es to find something "mysterlou-s” about the attitude of the Canadian Government toward a go-cglled trade deal with Russia. As Mr. E. C. Buchanan showed in an article reprinted in yesterday's Guardian. there is no evidence of any such offer having been made by the Soviet. authorities. Our con-

Wlllllllolllly. however, cites to the contrary effect a Canadian Press ncws item purporting to be official, mks Wily this ilcm was not. contra- tiicted, and adds: "It is nlgnulsana that Mr. Bennett, on his way home from England had replied to a wlrclt-ss query-that if any nego- tiations ivcrc undcr way it was without his consent." This is a gross misrepresentation - of thc facts. Prcmlcr Bennett's rc- Piy to thc wilrclcss query was: "Ho- port without. foundation." Zrhalt 111F011’ ir. n rlcnial, as emphatic and l5 official us could he desired. The fact that it was necessary for the Premier to issue a denial of n Cunncliun Press item illustrates

ia.n Press should be used ae a chan- nel for propaganda o! this or any other kind. Every precaution is taken by the officials of the Can- adian Press to insure accurate and impartial news stories, but their best efforts are unable to prevent occasional exploitation of this kind. Readers in this Province will re- call what hflppfllfid i.n the last pro- vincial election campaign. Main- land papers canted a Canadian Press story purporting to give a re- view of the political situation and party prospects. The article was grossly ‘biased in favor of Liberal policies and politicians, but no one thought it worth while to contra- dict, it ovcr the Canadian Press. Corroboratlng the Prime Minis- ter's denial of any trade nego- tiations between Canada and Rus- sia, today's Guardian carries an equally emphatic repudiation by the Amtorg Trading Company, commercial representatives of the Soviet Government in New York. This should pretty well settle the matter. The whole scheme has been exposed as a figment of some propagandists’ imagination.

UPTREND IN BRITAIN

Coincident with Mr. Mbckenzie K1118’! miticfsun of the value of 191111111118 trade policies comes the statement from the British Minister of Labor of imqxroved industrial conditions in the 01d Country dur- 1118 the first few months. The im- provement in the British coal ex- port trade, in particular, upon which so much cf Britain's prosperity depends, has been marked. Mr. D. Farr Davies, general manager of the Associated Amalgamated Col- lerfes in Wales, is quoted as stating that exports of anthracite from Wales increased from 3.649.900 to 4,298,500 tons in 1932, and he said he would not be surprised i: the V1151 exports from Swansea alone in 1933 were to exceed 6,000,000 torts. Shipments to Canada. alone had reached 750,000 tons in 1932 and would exceed this figure th‘s year. He looked forward to 1933 as a b°°n to Wales.

Mr. Davies further stated that the effect of Britain's new 35°01 Dvilcy (i. e., her abandon- ment of free trade for the Em- pire preferential agreements negot- iated at. Ottarwa) had been remark- able for the way in when foreign nations were rushing to negotiate XIGWNiATBETBGMS-Aflimlgilllflnl were Arsentlne, Iatvia, Finland, Den- matk, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Uruguay. Belgium, Colombia, Costa Rho, llbthonie. France, Lithuania, Holland, Peru, Santa Domingo, Switzerland and Germany.

When negotiations had actually besun or were coming later, Brit-

ain's representatives were making it plain that they must not conflct

with the Ottawa agreements.

In the circumstances Mr. Mac- kenzie King seems to have been exceptionally unfortunate in tinting his anti-Eimplre trade utterances. If the effect of the Ottawa agree- ments has been to increase Brit- ain's trade opportunities with other countries both, within and without the Empire, there ls no reason why the same result should not, accrue to Canada.

NOTES BY THE WAY

It happens that polities in the] U. S. stands bet/wee. that country and the prosperity that bad been hoped for. A writer in the magazine o! Wall street has this to say about it: "Now what stands out as we enter the new year Ls that, regard- less of the strong effort uiacle by the government and busines dur- ing 1932 to check deflation and bring about a price i-‘se through ex- pedients 0f one kind or another. conunodity prices on the average today are at a new low level of de- pression. The strangling effects of maladjustment between different commodity groups is more, rather than less. severe. The pressure of debts, Jlldlilldllfll, corporate and pub- lic has grown heavier."

In two years. says an item in Til- bits, the Lord Provost Lewis, of Ab- crdccn, has raised $2,000,000 to build the (iranite City's new infinimry, the lust $150,000 being raised in March, when the object of the “big puslr-to raise-$5,000 a day—was more than achieved. In this month the actual sum collected from the “flinty-hearted" citizens was $180.- 895. The honorary treasurer of the fund tells of a woman who with- drew her llfe savings of $250 with the intention of handing over the entire sum, and was only with dif- flculty persuaded to modify her generosity. Another working ‘man, who had been saving up to buy a new hat, sent‘ the money to the fund.

London (0nt.), says the Border Cities Star, reports n scheme by which a. large number of water heaters arc to be offered to the public at a low rate in ordcr to find a quick market for 100,000 horse- power of surplus Hydro. The fact that there is a. surplus of publicly- owrled electricity is something to be considered by those who still cling to the ides that an immediate start should be made on the St. Lawrence deep waterways project. The development of eiect-ricpovrer is of course. one of the big features 0d the St. La "cnce plan. If. how- ever, we have more Hydro now than we know what to do with, where would we sell the enormous quantity of horsepower that carry- ing out of the St. Lawrence system would make available?

WHEN TONSILS MUET BE REMOVED

The number of individuals with infected tonsils who refuse to have the mremoved is very large indeed. .

They argue. quite naturol-‘Y- 11181 the tonsils were put there for some definite purpose and. they should not. be removed- This is quite true and tonsils have sometimes been removed simply because they were large, when as a matter of fact. they were doing useful work for the body.-

The tonsils is a sort of filter that filters out. harmful substances from the blood; it also destroys harmful organisms that might cause trouble in the system.

However just as the filter on your water tap can get overloaded with dirt or other substances so also can the tonsils get so infected and so damaged that. instead of doing their filtering work for the blood, they urc actually pouring harmful sub- s.itiisus—poisons—into the blood.

when thc tonsils should be re- moved surgery ls still considered the best method. However if for some reason, surgery cannot be used, dia- thermy—electricity—is now‘ proving effective.

By this method the tissue of the tonsil is coagulatcd, and thus all blocdvessels. nerves, and other structures are destroyed.

Unrortunately the destructulon of the tonsils cannot be done in one operation as in surgery, and requires a number of visits to the doctor's office. Drs, R, G. Brown and J. D. Duhig. Sydney, Australia, state that the removal of tonsils by electricity can be performed, almost painless- ly, and with practically no disconn- fort following, provided just a little destruction is done at each sitting.

Further, the use of electricity for this purpose should ‘be in the hands of only those skilled in its use, as bad results in some cases are clue entirely to lack of knowledge on the part of the operator. When the work is not done properly, parts of the tonsils, containing considerable infection, may still be left. and the harmful substance continue to be absorbed into the blood. .

The thought then is that surgery is always the best method unlessi there are defects in heart. 1111185. 01‘ other organic conditions.

Where these organic conditions cxist, or the patient fears the oper- ation, diathermy, in skilled hands, is indicated.
