The interest taken by thc Char- lottetown Board of Trade in the boosting n! home industries has re- sulted. as stated in yesterday's ncws columns, in the appointment of a committee tn investigate the feas- lblilly of organizing a local Manu. fncturers‘ Association. It will be recalled that at the last quarterly meeting of the Board the Indust- rial Co-irmiittee reported that a brief had been presented to the

Whilc urging grcutci intuest iii homo industries. those interested m the campaign arc not unmindful that the great and basic industry 0i this Province is iiuw. as it has a-l- ways been, general nuxcd farming. Thc brief presented to the Gov- ernment stresses the fact that a great. proportion of lmpurtcd agri- cultural products could and should be grown and milled within the Province. "It would seem." it says, "that our people vrould do well to return at lcast in part to the paths trod by their fathers by the grow- ing of and preparing for use some 10f the foodstuffs and feeds now ‘importcdf’ and it concludes with the assurance that. the Board of Tradc will endeavor to ro-opcratc in every" way in

literature to Women's Institutes, Dairy Assoczzitions, and farmers‘ organizations. The assurance of c0- operation from the Summcrsidc Board of Trade has also been re-

ceived. The project is one which deserves cvcigv support. and its‘ further progress will be awaited

» with interest.

RECIPROCITY

l I The contention. advunccd in Lib- i oral quarters, that the Bennett ‘Government. has ‘fswlcn the Ljaeral reciprocity policy" because of the increasingly favorable predictions that a reciprocal trade zig-ree-ment bet/ween Canada and the United States may shortly be reached, is ~01“ o.’ those arguments designed simply for the benefit of the crcdu- lous. A glance at the record of the Mackenzie King Government is sufllcicnt. to show that its trade policy so far n5 Canada's relations with United States arc-concerned, was ivorsc than valuclcss Lu this country.

By Washington enactments dur- ing the nine years of Liberal rule at Ottawa twenty-five products of Canadian farms, including cattle, horses, sheep, poultry, grains, meats, milk and other dairy products, sccds, vegetables, fruits, etc, were taken off the free list wliilc (lutics 0n other things were doubled, treb- lcd and in some cases iii-uric live or six times as high as they had breii previous to 1020.

'.l'lius catilc, which had been free, taxed 3 cents pound. Sliccp, which had been frcc, iwrc taxed $3 a head. Tlic duty poultry from one cent to eight cents a pound. Eggs, which had been free, were taxed ten cents a dozen. Potatoes which had been frcc, were taxed '75 cents per 100 pounds. The duty on liay was increased from $2 to $5 per ton.

The first human transfusion was performed in 1666 in Paris by Jean Baptiste Denis. His youthful pat- 19]“ mid been bled, according to the custom of the day, for an obscure fever and was iii a state of exhaustion; nine ounces of the blood of a lamb was transferred to him, and almost ut once improve- ment followed.

The Boston Post says: “The head of n group of bankers, speaking in New York, struck a keynote on the ‘new honesty‘ needed in bank 0p- eration and 1n business. We have read a. lot about the ‘new deal’ and the ‘ncw freedom’ and other ‘new things, but the idea of a ‘new hon- esty’ is one that taxes the patience. ‘There is no such a thing as s ‘new honesty.‘ Honesty is not dated. It is a virtue whosc characteristics have always been tlic same and always will be. What is nccdcd is tlie old honesty."

Sir Josiah Stamp in a radio message to the people of the Unit- cd states last suuday declared that leadership ls the great need of the present day. I-Ic said that it could only be looked for if the United States and Great Britain could find it irossible to co-operate to- gether to common ends.

the prospects of success at the World Economic Confluence are rather slim. ..__. The Government, says an ex-

change. from its assumption of of- fice has declared itself in favor of the decentralization of industry. It wants to keep the people on the land and keep them there by the setting up iii each town and village of the subsidiary industries that will employ those of the families of the land workers who are not en- gaged in agriculture. This is as it uscd to be iii Ireland before man was driven into the emigrant ship to make room for the bullock, and as it is in France and Italyfand some of the smaller European nations today. Wc must grt back to that position.

MORE INFORMATTON WANTED

8113-1 have been reading in your Piper. a brief prepared by the Board of ‘Irma-and presented to the Government, and in connection iwith it. a proposed campaign to be launched to induce our people to buy more within the Province. Now it is an inexorable law of commutes that s. people must sell the things that they produce or they cannot buy the things that they Peqllllv- Are thow business men pre- pared to provide us a market for our products? If not where an‘ we to get the money for this "home buying" proposed? Our business men have been largely patronized by our rural people all along. They not ‘only offered us a market for our stun’ but have been our worst competitors. Many of them rush- ed into potato growing, fox ranch- ing, poultry and other lines. It is disagreeable to have to say this but it is merely stating the faBB. Under such conditions increased "home buying" by out rural people can not take place under any law of economics.

Perhaps they intend the "Tour. ists" to consume all that we can produce. i

You may see a man walkins along the street with his back bent or see one who is very straight, but in either case you detect s. “stifl back."

This is one of the conditions that causes considerable discussion in damage suits and is usually due to arthritis (inflamed joints) of the spine.

An individual may have some 1n- fcctlon iii the system and it gets‘ into the little joints between the bones forming the spinal column. n, mny be anywhere in the back- neck, upper or lower back. but most cuscs are in the lower back.

After some time his pain gradu- ally disappears and while the back may feel a little stiff at time, he goes about his daily work in his usual manner.

He has an accident of some kind —falls some distance, attempts to lift a heavy load, is struck by a motor car or ha! some other type of accident. He is laid up for some weeks or months. and the" the damage suit gets under way. What happens ?

Dr. A. J. Weber, Milwaukee. on ____ the basis of a careful analysis of (Mona-ea; queue)

100 cases of arthritis or rheumatism of the spine, say: that the condi- tion is usually found past the age of forty, and more commonly in men that in women. It may not cause any real sympt- oms noticeable to the patient until an injury occurs and causes some disability. An injury may aggravate this chronic inflamed condition, which is giving no pain, to such an ex- tent that the individual ls com- pletely disabled insofar as the back is concerned. Therefore Dr .Webei' points out the need 0f a careful study of each case, not. only by physical examin- ation, but by the X-rays as well, in order to determine the condition that was old and had existed at the time of the injury, and that which has been caused by the injury. In this way one can determine to a reasonable certainty what a. man's disability should be and what part of this disability rs directly due to the injury.

There are cases where the shape or build of the individual is at fault when an injury occurs. Sometimes where the body is long and wide, or the lower back too "hollow" (bends forward too far) and an injury oc- curs it causes trouble in the joints of the lower back.

'I‘l-ie use of the X-ray will often show the cause of the trouble and point the way toward relief.

It has been stated by a mexriber of one of the largest American publishing’ firms that in spite of the business depression the num- ber of books issuing from the printing press shows no diminu- tion. As a. matter of fact, the out- put of literary material. alike in respect of books and magazin . is amp‘ than ever before known. Some three thousands years ago it was remarked by a philosopher who had grown blase and cynical: “Of the making. of books there is no end." What would he exclaim did he live in our age? Some forty years ago it was computed that the National IAbi-ary at Paris eon- taiiied 800.000 separate volumes and 148.760 acres of printed paper. ‘The Library of the British Museum came next in order with a total of 700,000 volumes arranged in forty miles’ length of bookshelves. The Lclpsic catalogue has the names of 50.000 German authors: and how many books were destroyed in the destruction by fire of the lib- rarles at Vienna and at lnuvain who could possibly tell? It has been estimated that if the baoklore in vo'ume form of five 0f the great- est Fbraries of modern ‘time: were laid sde by side. the total would cover some ten thousand acres.
