Even the most astute authority on foreign trado would be likely to hesitate about making predictions as to the future profit for United States bus ness in Latin American trade. The whole complex problem of buying from and selling to the twenty countries sout-h of the Rio Grande will become ground for in- teresting speculation in the next few months as the State Department carries out promptly President Roosevelt's order to seek trade agreements in that region. The ex- ports and imports of the last three years are certainly not an accurate gauge of what opportunities may be exploited in South and Central Am- erica in the next five years-New York Sun.

It h not often that The Times of London leaves itself open to amend; but it must now stand cor- rected or start a controversy. One of its recent articles concluded: "In the homely American phrase, it would be foolish to throw away the baby with the bath water." The Times ‘or New York yesterday om- tested that attribution of this phrase to Americans was "ludicrously un- warranted." "Don't throw out the baby with the bath," is declared to be an axiom coined in Germany. But whoever would be so careless as to throw away a bath whatever one might feel inclined sometmes to do with the baby.

You are hearing something of a “new" system of diet whereby you do not eat meat when you eat pota- toes, or you do not est bread when you eat meat.

The reason seriously advocated by those who use this dleffs that your digestive apparatus should not be asked to do too much work at one time; thus if it is digesting starch it shouldn't be required to digest protein also.

As a matter of fact there is noth- ing "new" about this system; every doctor has heard or read about it for a great many years but there never was a time when it was so much discussed or used.

You may remember how the 18 day diet swept over the country leaving many invallds and causing marry deaths. It would appear that this fad is also interesting a great many people, but fortunately it is not likely to cause any serious trouble. \ h

While it must be admitted that the enzymes or ferments in the di- gestive juices which break up or digest foods, act differently from one another in that one acts on starches, another on proteins, and another on fats, nevertheless as they all flo\v together at the sight and smell of food there is always

enough of them to digest a "mixed"

The Romance Of Geology

(Montreal Gazette)

The geologist takes long-range views. He talks of mlllenniums as though they were but moments in geologic time. Likely most of us have hitherto been content vfith geology as a folsiliud affair or with the nation that the old-time divi- sion of earth strata into aqueous and igneous rocks is an all-sufficient account of everything the expert has to say. ‘Tina as a. rook" and “durable as the solid earth," are phrases familiar enough in everyday speech. Now and then it may come over us that the presence of fossil shells upon the hill peeks remind usehattheooeanfloorhasbeen uplifted and that vast siunbarine areas were the land surfaces of oth- er days. It is a century and a half since Hutton suggested that the earth crust is a solid Layer spread over a yery hot interior. Playfalr, Jukes and Kelvn accepted this theory. it belig added that the pro- cess of forming the earth crust might require forty million years or so, and that new lands were built up after the manner of rivers choking up their mouths with silt and forming deltas, the foundation of future continents. The modern geologist has induced an entirely‘ new factor in his calculations and, we are informed that the continents actually float. Also that it may have taken five hundred million years to form the earth's crust and make it a habitation for living creatures. 10rd Rayleigh in 1921 de- clared that this multiple was a moderate calculation. The wizard force which is supposed to have brought about the slow sinking of continents and the uprise of the sea floor is the thing we know as radio-activity. Such is the gist and tenor of some of the papers recent- ly read at the International Geol- ogical ‘Congress and the theories advanced have aroused widespread interest not only in scientific cir- cles, but also amongst all and

One of the most important ques- tions to be considered by the Royal Banking commission as it tours the important centres of the country will be that of the advisability of setting up a Central Bank.

The position of Great Britain in the Persian Gulf is unique in world politics. Without owning a square mile of territory on either of its shores, or even possessing one of its barren and inhospitable islands as a base, she has for generations borne burdens there which no oth- er nation has ever shouldered, ex- QBPE in the capacity of Sovereign: she has undertaken duty without dorninions; she has kept and keeps the peace amongst people who never have been and are not her subjects; she has policed waters over which she has no formal authority, and she haskcpt an open market in those distant ports equally to all the merchants of the world.

If Mr. Roosevelt succeeds in his present experiment will he be able to control his success; or will the Speculative temper of the Americans quickly turn success into a boom that will prepare the way for a fur- ther dlsastcr? That is the unsolved problem raised by the present Arn- crican experiment in "controlled capitalism." an experiment whch the world ls watching with 311 the more concern because the failure of effective international action has tumed people's minds everywhere to the chances of restoring prosperity by purely national measure o! con- trol.

The hint about radio-activity may be said to have revivifled the geo- logical thesis. At any rate it has upset all former notions concern- ing stability. We are told that the earth pulsates.

us that the earth crust is composed of two layers, and upper and a low- er. and that the deeper part of the crust is much heavier than the up- per rook material. Those underly- lng rocks are known as “siai” and are of the type basaltic. Now the upper crust we call our landscape overlaps and slithers on the lower and harder crust. Why so? Be’- cause this lower crust deep down below our landscape and in the foundlations of the sea has in it much radio-active material. This heating material is traipped.

For the vast majority of people this method is not necessary or even advisable as it gets the "mind" too much on the food, and upsets the usual household arrangements.

However it makes sure of a good all round diet and can't hurt you if you want to try it. In fact, it may really help you.

Astronomy is advancing s0 rapidly that we need not take tlrcsc predic- tions in “The Expanding Unverse" quite au pied do 1a ctirc; for not only has the size of the universe been increased byi the rcccni. gala- tlc discoveries, but the doctrine of space itself has undergone revision. A few Years ago the universe was de- fined as being finite but unbounded, and even space cndcd with the out- ermost star: now this ilmtcd space has had to be abandoned, and there are two kinds of space-that within and that without the balloon (the simile is Professor loticimgtons) which contains us.

The Eddington Cosmos, if one may so call it, raises philosophic as well as scientific difficult cs; for it appears to be expanding into noth- lngness, and its destruction will in that case be as purposcless as its creation. But the human mind is so

Politics And Picnics

(Vancouver Province)

‘My heart goes out to the women of the country even more than the men." These memorable words ware spoken by Mr. Mackenzie King at a Liberal picnic in the wheatfields of Saskatchewan, now whitening to a bountiful harvest. Mr. King is g0- lng to attend ten Lgiberal picnics in the next two weeks and he has bo- gun with the _picnlc at The Ridge, and he has struck his keynote there. Probably the political historians have missed a. great deal of the real significance of political events by not paying sufficient attention to the utterances of statesmen at picnics. It‘ seems to have been too lightly assumed that, because a statesmen is fulr of the boiled ham and potato salad and custard pie of a picnic, he is not to bc taken too seriously in his subsequent picnic oratory. Mr. King at The Ridge is the living refutation of this pro- found misapprehension.
