WHAT KING OMITTED

Mr- Mackenzie King's broadcast addresses were notable for what

I they omitted as much as iur wrist they contained.‘ It was in these ‘omissions that the Liberal leader showed his insincerity. He neglect-- ed. for example, to state that de- ~-spite any alleged sins of 01111551011 or commission by the Ben- net Government, Canada's recov- ery from the depression has ex- ceeded, in rapidity and reality. that of the United States, and has been second only to that of Great Britain. He had not the fairness to‘ admit that the Ottawa Agree-i ments have widened greatly the scope of Canada's export trade and have enormously increased its volume and value. He ‘said nothing about the fact that the national ~debt has been refunded at reduced rates of interest, lessening by mil- ,lions per year the amount Can- adian taxpayers have had to pay --the money-lenders. Nor did he ad- "mit that the grain-grovzing industry ., has been fortified by the work of is Wheat Marketing Board nuanced through Federal credits, as well as. by bonuses in reduction of trans- portation charges. Canadian wage- earners have been protected against “the distress products of rival work- ers in other countries by upward tariff revisions and anti-dumping laws, which Mr. King criticised. The effect of these measures of na- tionnl self-preservation has been to keep Canada abreast of the world's most buoyant nations in “Coiflbflttillg the depression. keeping _ " the unemployment scourge in check. ’_'speeding up the forces making for

v economic recovery.

{Votes By The Way

Every report which comes from "‘ ‘ d shows that the Old Land is making rapid recovery. Britain now has more people at work than any previous time in the past 14 years. The latest available figures. those of June 24, 1935, show that on that date there were at work in Britain 10,361,000 persons aged be- tween 16 and 64. This was 27.000 more than in May. and 166,000 more than a year ago.

The doctrine of local autonomy and decentralisation in human government is not lightly and friv- ously to be cast away-but neces- sity is apt t) make compronusers of us all. The fact is that our modern economic system, and the whole tendency of it, is not in favour of provincial jurisdiction. The sys- tem doesn't stop short at provin- cial boundaries, and all the artific- ial hindrances it finds there are in- creasngly apt to be swept aside. Even cn national frontiers the checks and balances of political cxpedients (such as tariffs, for in- stance) become more and more of

A few years ago when a patient was told he had heart disease, he was ready to “fold up", and lost mterest in life.

Today when he is told that ne has heart disease a “plan" of life is out- lined for him and he is told and truthfully told, that if he follows it he may live as long as if he had no heart disease. ‘

Now this plan doesn't simply out-, line how much work or exercise he, can safely do, but outlines a. plan of l life that takes in his mental and moral life also. ., |

Thus a new word for the treat- ment of heart disease is "recon- struction". It means not only thc relief of the disease itself, but a reorganization or reconstruction oi the daily habits of the patient.

Thus Dr. L. F. Bishop, Professor of Heart Diseases, Fordham Univer- sity, says, "Reconstruction must be

an irritation and a nuisance-Ex.

Quebecers are anxiously inquiring when their election is to take place, only to be told by Premier Taschereau, "all in good time." Meantime he is waiting to find out the date and subsequent result of the Federal election. He will then take the plunge.

The production of creamery but- ter in the first six months of 1935 was 5 per cent below that of 1934. The Maritime Provinces and Alberta show the greatest declines. In Que- bec and Ontario the butter output is on the increase, and if this sit- uation continues the total 1935 but- ter production in Canada may reach the level of 1034. .

Vicarious punishment was meted out to Montreal court officials, lawyers and reporters last week. It was this way. An old man, found! wandering on the Champ- de Mars. was charged before Recorder Lecncc Plante with vagrancy, He admitted he had no home and no place to go for shelter.

fore a Hamilton service club Mr.

Hall Linton, oi The Farmer mag- ~lZlI18, gave some interesting figures

showing the continued improve-

ment in agricultural conditions.

Farm “revenue figures, he showed,

“was given by the poniinicirflureau of Statistics for Eastern Canada, including Ontario, Quebec and the

Maritlmes, were $741,097,000 in

1930; $512,470,000 in 193i; $437,-

022,000 in 1933; $478,053,000 in 1933

and $544,720,000 in 1934. The low

was reached in 1932 since when 3 there has been a steady upward climb. 1f the index of farm pro- duction costs in 1929 is taken at 100 that for 1930 is 96 and that for -“'~=’I934 is 89. In other words 909 of , ,the farmer's income in 1934 would iIJ-"hiro as much labor and. buy as - much equipment and other farm dreads as $95 in 1930 or $100 in 1929 thus further increasing the farmer's net revenue. when these two items are taken (together it will be seen that the actual pur- chasing power of the farmer in 1984 was at least equal to his pur- ‘chasing power in 1930.

“And how about 1935?" asks Mr. Linton. "The improvement that has taken place in market cattle prices

‘ and in dairy products since the first of the year over 1934 and the improved crop prospects for the season to date, would indicate that farm revenues for 1935 will exceed those of i030 and bring to the farmer of Eastern Canada a nct revenue not very much below that or the years preceding the depres- eion."

If these statistics are correct farmers generally should be in c. position to spend more money on the various types of merchandise they need. Mr. Linton went on to show that this is exactly what is happening. The farm implement manufacturers were poggibly the first to feel the improvement. Most of thorn report a decided increase in business for last Spring. One

, “qflgrnilton company had the larg- est shipment of farm machinery early in March that it hufcver experienced so early in the season.

Ln emphasizing the benefits of a cheap money policy, stress has been placed on the importance of re- ducing bank rates but too little at- tention has been given to the greater benefits to be derived from low rates on long-term financing, says the Monthly Letter of the Royal Bank of Canada. About all that can reasonably be expected has been done in the way of creat- ing a plentiful money supply and making this effective through the persistent efforts of commercial banks to put surplus cash reserves to use. ‘The beneficial effects on the long-term securities market, partic- ularly in the department of gov- ernment finance, now depends more on public confidence and this, in turn, depends on sound policies in government.

A national scheme to lessen the hazards of existence for the work- ers of the country, to care for them from the cradle w the grave, is pic- tured for the Dominion by Hon. Gordon Harrington, chairman of the Employment and Social Insur- ance Commission." Col. Harrington points out that while the Commis- sion of which he is the head is in- terested principally in setting up and administering an unemploy- ment insurance scheme, it is als’: charged by the legislation to give consideration to a plan oi national health insurance. There is also provision in most of the provinces already for old age r for widowed mothers’ allowancesffor ac- cident insurance to those employed in industry, and other state schemes for guarding against the emcrgenci of employment. All of which will tend to provide for the material needs or the workers and save them worrying about what to- morrow may bring forth.

Italy needs outlet for population and control of territory that pro- duces the cxmmodilies she lacks. If Italy pleads her case properly and reasonably, others will see the ne- cessity and arrange the affair somehow. It is because she appears bent on grabbing first and discus- sing rt later that others whohave invested themselves with the halo of Geneva idealism are obliged at least to profess horror. Her rather casual generalizations about a civ- llizing mission are inadequate. She has also spoken once or twice about the mistake of taking the League too seriously. She may be righ-t,but shc is not tactful. However, she now is prepared to take the League seriously, provided the League plays according t; rules she lays down for dealing with the trouble arisirg out of her East African antics. All things considered, it is a pretty cool proposition. It is very probably blufL-Ex.

Likewise there ‘is a growing feeling against beverage rzoms for women.

mental, moral, and physical."

The mental reconstruction con- sists in a thorough instruction of the person as to the nature of has disease and the means through which improvement must be sought.

The moral reconstruction consists in the development of a sound phil- osophy or attitude toward life that is ready at any moment to accept what must come to all of us at some time, even though it be sudden, and yet at the same time looks forward hopefully to good things in the fut- ure.

Physical reconstruction consists in the development in the heart muscles of what is known as "com- pensation"—-the amount of work that can be done safely to keep the heart muscle as strong as possible in order tc do the "necessary" amount of work. It means eating enough food for the needs of the body, but not more food than is necessary as the extra food to be burned or extra_ fat that may ac- cumulate from overeating, may over- work the heart.

It must be admitted that this common sense method of treating heart disease, a method which means treating the complete indivi- dual instead of just the heart itself, is the greatest advance in the treat- ment of heart disease since Dr. James MacKenzie showed that a

leakage or heart murmur was not necessarily serious.

This method is in line with the present idea in medicine that the physician must take the patient into his confidence if best results are to be obtained.
