Dominion Government, the merside Liberal press again deavors to folst the responsibility for this measure on the Conserv-l stive administrations in this Prov- ince and at Ottawa. It maintains that the King Government had no intention of leasing oyster areas, that its policy was "to bring back the beds for public fishing," and that the Bennett Government abandoned that policy with the "consent" of the local Conservative administration.

The intention of the King Gov- ernment. of course, can only be de- termined by the agreement. As pre- viouly pointed out in these col- umns, sections 5, 8 and '7 of the agreement negotiated wuh the Blunders Government in 1928 S“; Tim: prolvlsioni 1:: ‘gens; comprehensive history of the sec-

Control’ 0f Ancient Chinese Depression

(Monthly Letter Royal Bank of Canada)

Depresslons are nothing new in history: they have been recorded periodically in the official history of China. The nearest Chinese word for depression is Huang. which means decolation,.A depres- sion of want ts called Chi Huang, ‘while ardeprescion of fear is Kbng Huang. There is l. classical term “Huang Ohens". which means po-

lations, The oldest record of these measures can be found in the Qchow Li, or the Book of Govern- ‘mental Rites of the Chow dynasty. The Chow Li is one of the thirteen Confucian classics. the authorship of which is generally attributed to the Duke of Chow of the twelfth century B. 0.

The following transaction from the Chow Ll was made by Dr. Klang Kang-hu of the Gest chi- nese Library of McGlll University. The twelve items themselves are given in capitals. Commentary up- on the meaning of these statements has grown through the centuries, vbut the explanation hero summar- :lzcd, after each item. is supposed , to have been written in the first century, A.

In the testing, the tea is weighed in small scales, es- pecially made for the purpose. and s. portion equal in weight to a ten cent piece is dropped into a smaLll china. pot. Boiling water is then added and the lid is placed on the pot. After five or six minutes the liquor is poured into a small cup, drained, and the infused leaf is tnpped from the pot on to the lid which is inverted for the purpose. The taster then begins the exam- ination of the tea, first by tasting the liquor (but not swallowing same) when warm, for any such taste as would indicate mustlness or scum on thc top; then by exam- ination of the dry leaf, and also of the leaf after infusion, for foreign matter. Great care has to be taken to see that leaves, other than those of the tea. plant, have not been added, also to see that thc leaves‘ are free from grit. Teas are tested also by chemical analysis in cases where teas are found on the in- fusion test to be unsound or unlit for use.
