Mr. Churchill Out

A writer in an English news- paper pleads for a ,place in the House of Commons for Mr. Ran- dolph ('huri-hill whom he calls "the brilliant son of the greatest parlia- mentarian of all timefff Concludes the writer: "It seems tome to be 1 political tragedy that this politician of such potential greatness should be out of the House--as the result of sheer bad luck-when he is at the best time of his life." It is possible that they have made a series of grave iiiistnkcs; but, for some reason. the electors have not been very considerate of Mr. Churchill's political ambitions. And, the British view of democracy being what it is, it seems hardly likely that any sus- tained effort will be made to ”find" a seat for an oft defeated candidate. It is just one of those things that, for better or worse, must be left to the people, although Mr. Churchill's brilliance in many ways is unques- tioned.

This business of ”i'inding" seats for men who happened to be in of- ficial favour but not, for the time being, in the approbation of any particular group of voters, has been resorted to in this country on sev- eral occasions; and. in in few in- stances we can recall. it seemed to have worked out fairly well. But it is at best I policy of expediency: and in England it is reserved for times of special urgency when, in the opinion of the Prime Minister,

who has had bad luck at the polls. are almost indispensable to the country. All in all. however, the Bri- tish view is that it is much better be allow the normal elective pro- cesses to take their course.

In Mr. Churchill's case, it must be remembered that his distinguish- ed father came to public esteem only after considerable plodding and a number of setbacks. In due course, one may assume, the son will find his niche. Meanwhile, it is reasonable to believe he will have to take his chances just like other political aspirants; and, whatever some of his friends may think. one feels that he himself would not have It otherwise.

Money From Penilenls

Do petty lawhreakers, who man- age to escape detection, ever report their misdeeds and make restitu- tion? Yes. many of them do, by for- warding what is known as ”con- science money" to those they wronged. Th 9 North American Newspaper Alliance has been doing some extensive research in the sub- iect and has come up with a large number" of interesting cases of re- penlance. Following are I few of the more inlrirziiiiig ones: Government l'i'c.'ivirics are the chief beneficiar- ies of lwlutcrl repentance. The Un- Hclli Stains Treasury. for cx-ample. holds Illt"l'P than S? million which hair linen received from this source over the yeais. The largest contri- bution ever recorded was Sl.'l(l,tl(l0 from ii man who said the Bible had persuaded him to repay a debt, con- tracted many years before, four- fold. He did not say how the debt had been incurred; nor does the Treasury Department, know. The Imallest was 2 cents sent by a woman who explained that shc had used a postagc stamp tvrice, A man lent in 40 cents uith a note saying that. In 8 IVIV. he had made 4 counterfeit coins and bought candy with them.

Not all sIl('h fniits of repentance find their way into government bank accounts. however. A man sent 25 cents to A woman in De- troit. explaining that 25 years ago be had stolen that sum from 1 milk ' bottle she had lefton her front porch. "I have a your; son of my own he added. Incidentally.

Gieatre received 35 wrapped up In a note which read: "Please accept this. I have gone in the side door, without paying, many times.” An- other man, whose conscience both- cred him, sent 55 to a music store because he used to court his girl there and play her favourite songs on the store's pianola. "Not having much money in those days", be ex- plained, ”I was in the habit of using slugs".

Some contributions are in kind. A man with a humorous side to his newly-found honest.y forwarded two ostrich eggs to 1 grocer with this pencilled confession: ”I stole two hen's eggs from your store '20 years ago. I hope the enclosed eggs, which are much bigger, will cancel the debt plus interest".

Diplomatic Helerodoxy

Mr. Malcolm MacDonald, the veteran British diplomat in the Far East, has been criticized more than once for his unorthodox ways. One of his occasional habits is to attend a formal dinner minus the regula- tion jacket, a practice which has caused some of his sartorially im- peccable colleagues to lift their cyc- brows in amazement. I-lrequcntly he

carries his necktie in a pocket, a most painful departure from cus- tom; and, though this should not be talked about too much. he has even been known to come right out in public wearing a Hawaiian shirt which. if only half of what. is said about it is true, is about the Hilfi- iest and most undiplomatic garment ever invented. Yet, despite these ob- vious departures from precedent, Mr. MacDonald has continued 10 hold high office under both (lou- servative and Labour Governments: the reason. of course, being that he has shown himself to be a very cap- able representative. Furthermore. he is extremely popular in the Far East where. presumably. the eccen- tricities referred to above are not looked upon as barriers to gracious- ness.

Once, in defending his actions against well-meaning critics, Mr. MacDonald said: ”Ordinary British citizens are not snobs”. The infer- ence was that, since his job is to represent his countrymen among the people of the Far East. a little informality--which. of course, is not. to be confused with slovcnlincss gglves a good impression. Not every man could turn such infor- mality to good account, for there is nothing more tricky than studied heterodoxy; it has many pitfalls for the unwary. Evidently, Mr. Mac- Donald knows how to do it and do it well.

A Syrian diplomat is quoted as

saying that "Israel as a state has

no room in our lands." If that isn't aggressive language, what is it? Arab spokesmen should be told. to curb their tongues, or there is going to be trouble. Israel will not stand for that kind of talk.

A statement made by Premier Fleming of New Brunswick to the Dominion - Provincial Conference bears repeating. "We in New Bruns- wipk," he "id, "have no quarrel with other provinces. no quarrel with the federal authority. We are not. coming, but In band, to this or any other conference table. Yet, we know that we represent an import- ant principle far beyond consider- ations of area, population, and vot- ing strength In its importance.

Any American presitlciit is both an institution anrlia human being. Mr. Eiscnliowcr's illness is only the latest proof of the fact that the institution, as now established. is simply too big for any human being to carry for long. The Presi- dency is becoming, literally, sh impossible job of work.

In 35 years it has killed Woodrow Wilson and Franklin Roosevelt and now it has stricken a much health- ier man accustomed throughout his life to heavy burdcns.

All this is the result of an iron- clad constitution which was found- ed. in respect of the Presidency. nn a curious mls-reading nf Brithish history.

These men are not the govern- ment. The government. in its ex- ecutive functions. is solely the President. Every vital issue must be decided by him and can be dccided by no one else. i

That is why the illness of the President is not only a moving human tragedy. touching every de- rcnl man in the world. but. for

the time being, an international disaster.

Looking For Lobster

iw. l.. Clark in the Windsor Starl

Talking to a couple from New Jersey who had been visiting Prince Edward Island. they asked us how a tourist goes about getting a lobster dinner on the Island?

Now, tliere's a question that has slumped more than one visitor to the Garden of the Gulf. Although the lobster business is a major in- dustry there, it is so difficult to get I! lobster dinner-

Thcy do serve cold lobster at different places, but getting broiled or boiled lobster is something that is almost impossible.

So nften we have asked Islanders why they never cater to the tourists and provide broiled or boiled lob- ster dinners. For some reason they can never think that anyone would want such a meal. '

The New Jersey couple had tried so hard in get a lobster dinner on the Island. but they couldn't find one. And, price was no object with 'lI('m, they just wanted lobster.

TINY FEET REQUIRE WELL-FITTED SHOES

Sboes won't be I problem for -your baby until he's about nine or ten months old and begins to creep or stand. But from then on, you'll be buying sbou, it will seem, all the time.

From the very tint. it's impor- tant that your infant. gets the right kind of shoes and the proper it.

fl

His first shoes should be soft- soled. have no heel and should fit comfortably.

Soles Should Be Rough

By the age of ten or 12 months. he'll probably be walking and will need a different. type of shoe. They should not. have heels ei- ther, but the soles should be stiff. although flexible. The soles should not be smooth. If they are, scratch them with I knife to make them less slippery.

The shoes should be one-quarter inch wider and one-half inch long- er than your youngsters foot when he is standing with his shoes on and his feet are bearing his full weight. Make sure the shoes are high enough at the front, so they do not touch the top of his toes.

As soon as his toes come within one-quarter of an inch of the front of his shoes. buy him I! new pair. Keeping his shoes at least it quart.- er inch longer than his feet means that his toes will have enough room to spread out flat.

Improper shoes might make his toes crooked. lap over or turn un- der. If this does happen. call your doctor.

Each day, examine your baby's feet immediately after you remove

his shoes and stockings. If his toes overlap, or if creases appear on his feet. the shoes probably are too small. Get rid of them.

The only part of the shoe which should fit snugly is the back. The heel should be narrower than the rest of the shoe. Don't put patent leather shoes on your baby. They are likely to make his feet per- spire too much.

I advise high shoes at least until your lot is two years old b he needs the support they give him.

QUESTION AND ANSWER

R. A. H.: I perspire freely both summer and winter. despite the constant use of non-perspirants. Can you suggest something that I might do?

Answer: To overcome excessive perspiration, you should bathe daily. Applying a 25 per cent solu- tion of aluminum chloride, every other day, to the affected parts of the body may be helpful.

There is no danger in checking excessive perspiration.
