SIGNALLY HONOURED

m‘, Lloyd W. Shaw, BA, Super- flscirioffrcachcr Training at Prince of Wales College, has been signally honoured in receiving, along with five other Canadian cducationists, the Carnegie Scholarship to which reference is made in tocluys ncws columns. The scholarship carrlesl with it the opportunity of visiting| and studying, during vacation, folk’ IChOOIS in Denmark, Norway and- Bweden. The fact that Mr. Show waeselected from a largc number of applicants and that he is the only representative of the Mari- time.‘ Provinces among the scholar- ahipi winners, reflects great credit not only upon him but upon Prince of Wales College and the Government of this Province which, through the efforts of the Hon. Dr. W. J. P. MacMillan, Minister. of Ed- ucation, was responsible for obtain- lng lyfr. Shaw's services and for his appointment to the position he now occupies with so much distinction.

COUNCILLOR WHEAR

Congratulations to City Councillor John F. Whcar who will not have to run an election to take his scat as colleague of Councillor Holman representing Ward Four. The only candidate to nominate in yester- day's. lay-election, Mr. Whear has {won in a walk.

Mr, Whcar is on old member oi the Council and has never lost his interest in civic affairs. Ho has fol- lowed the financial situation carc- fully for many yzar". and though his official rhititz; in the Postal

service prevented him in re- cent years, irom taking any active part in civic tnatters, hc nevertheless was frequently con-

sulted by mrmbcrs of thc- Council and others regarding the trcncl oi bivic finances. No doubt his advent lithe Council Board will assist in ltrengthenitig thc Finance Commit- tee in thc stressful times through Which the Council, in common with If public bodies, is passing.

IALUSING PRIVILEGES

Members of the Legislature are privileged by law to make state- ments which, if made outside the louse, would make thcm liable for alandcr. ‘Tlhcy arc protected in order to enable thcm to protect firs‘ public interest. But this pro- iection does not entitle them to make wild or erroneous statements without first endeavoring to dis- Cover the truth of their allegations. ‘A member or the House, for in- Ituioe, is no more entitled to give burrency to idle rumor than is any qrdinary person. His protection is in enable him to further the public interest, especially when and where brhas satisfied himself that he is hnpossesslon of all the ascertain- Ifle facts in the case.

A STERLING GROUP

The Federation of British In- dustries is probably the most powerful body of industrialists in the world and, says the Telegraph Journal, it has recently laid its vicws on industry and money before the chancellor of the cxchequer. These views involve the setting up of an Empire sterling group. Every

today. The Stalin regime is one of the most severe despotisms in his- tory. M " l rules Italy with en iron hand; and even Roosevelt has been granted dictatorial powers, But it is Germany that has lately moved most rapidly to the right. Hitler is triumphant. A heavy hand

has been laid upon the Dress. Enemies of the Government are being ruthlessly suppressed. 'I‘hc_ statue of Karl Marx is being

But he w-ll still be left guessing as to what the rest of the world means to do ir-ivards the restornuou o.‘ inter- national trade, and lie durc not gamble on a renunciation of ‘past folly. At any cost let the British Government go into that confer- "ncc with a billilllii-(i Btirlgct.

dominions, but this need not mean| rigid agreements. The aim should

be a common financial and indust-

rial policy, admitting to the group

can co-operate.

More definitely, the federation

states its objectives as follows: to raise the level of sterling prices to a point where production is reas- onably profitable, thereafter to keep the price structure stable and to balance production within the sterling group, to direct savings into investments advantageous to industry, and to direct that part of savings available for foreign investments into countries within the sterling group. It points out that the sterling group countries would be those whose trade is com- plimentary and , not competitive. Much of the present financing of competitor countries in the guise of reconstruction projects would thus be abandoned. In arriving at these recommend- ations the federation asserts that the failure of the gold standard has been the failure of foreign financiers to know how to use it. They have "divorced finance from industry and commerce?’ sometimes they have made the former an- tagonistic to the latter when it should be thcirwilling servant.

What is significant in Mr. Mac- kenzie King's recent criticism 0f the 0.0.1". movement isthat it im- plies that Uberalinn in future will close its ranks, netead of broad-

the one big stop that the nation expects it to flli{(3——2llld \vlll refrain from trying to engage in unwise economic experiments of any kind, it will receive the grateful thanks of a depressicn-iveary people who are still struggling bravely and resolutely to reach the end of this trail of economic wce.

President Roosevelt's own alti- tude during the campaign and the fact that such a well-known low- tarifLmau as former Senator Cor- dell Hull, of Tennessee, is his Sec- retary of State, gives reasonable ground for hope that a decidedly changed attitude on the tariff may be expected from Washington.

For a. dozen years we took no count of the real value of things. Everyone, from the most opulent to the least wcll-to-do, ivantcd to enjoy evertliing which could be had for money. More and more capital and higher salaries were demanded to satisfy the factltlous demands which were forcver be-

The Uniiod States looks on her overseas territories, such as the Hawaiian Islands, as part of the country and has defined steamship service between the continent and those parts as coastal. Foreign shipping is barred from coastal trade between United States ports. And yet, as the Brandon Sun points out, “United Stats vessels are al- lowed to ply to Australia and New Zealand on even terms with the British merchant marine. The Brit- ish view is that if tramp between the United states and the Hawaiian Islands can be classified es coastal. so should that with the two dom- inlons be regarded as coastal by the British."

(Prominent among the remedial measures suggested by the Prep- nrainry Commissions of the World Economic Conference are "the mod- eration and stabilization of tariff. pollcieef) No nation can ofiits own individual action hope to do much to settle such an overwhelming problem. but Great Britain can at least claim that she has set an example, in negotiating wide-spread reciprocal agreements with the Do- minions and Colonies.

CRAZE FOB CHANGE

Sim-Children will cry for the moon. Some would like a llioe out of it; it looks so much like great rich golden cheese. The discontent- ed see beauty and plenty only ‘in distant fields, and, like the "dog. and the shadow" will sacrifice the substance to chase after the sha- dow.

There are two classes of people: those with sense enough to visual- im real values. and those who will ilrop the sure loaf of bread for the magnified pifile.

Amongst these shadow chaser-s we have those (1911) reciprocity preachers, led on by Duff and wor- Whipped in the Patriot, clamoring ' for that discarded treaty. I wonder

if they know what they are after?

With parrot like simplicity the local

press paraded the need of the U. S. markets for our eggs, cheese, butter, bacon, etc. This is chasing the shadow. Farmers in the Unit- ed States on the other hand want that 191i style of reciprocity, be- cause they arc oftho practical class. They want the substance.

If the studious will investigate they will understand the reason in, both cases, A copy of any Boston or New England newspaper can be bought“ for a few cents. In this they will find big three column or half page advertisements of supply, houses, the sellers of farm pro- ducts. The prices I take from these advertisements are those at which they sell to consumers: not what they pay to the farmer. Will some of our thinking ones compare these with our home market prices, and then estimate the extent of the dis-' aster which the Liberals ore clamor- ing after.

Choice fresh crcamery butter, ad- vertised by several firms, at 19c. per pound. Can you understand why the U. S. dairyman would like the Canada duty of 8c. per pound removed. Isn't it as plain as the nose on a man’s face that he wants to get the 29c. price at which but- ter ls selling in Canada? And‘ if we removed that 8c. duty, as the Duff agitators ask for, how long before the 19c. buter of Vermont would supercede the 29c. butter market which P. E. Island farmers enjoy? Fancy fresh eggs Plcpper dozen. over the counter, in Boston. This is retail price. It is the market han- kered after by the Liberal dema- gogues ns the get-rlch-quick place to ship our eggs for which we are getting a higher price at home. Choose, of tho highest quality, (the writer has eaten it) 150g What a fortune for our cheese makers if they only had access to this market as a selling depot for their 17c. cheese. u

Boneless smoked ham, 13o. What a boon reciprocity would be if it allowed us to sell our 20c. boneless ham in Boston. ('2)

Here's another. A 5 lb. ham and ' a dressed fowl, boxed, for 99c. Surc- ly our Liberal economists should speed up their machinery for carry lng our high priced products to those low priced markets.

SINUSITIS-JNILAMMATION or LINING OI‘ TIE SINIJSES’ ii ,

It is only a short time ago since the word sinus became familiar to the majority of people. It was known of course that there were little hollow places adjoining the nose in the upper Jaw or cheek bones, but that there were other sinuses or caverns in the bones of the face was not well known.

‘those sinuses can give trouble Just as can other ports of the body, and it is admitted by the majority oi’ nose and throat specialists that infection of the sinus in the cheek, the untrum as it is oral/led, is res- ponsible for most of th nose com- plaints. ‘

This does not mean that pus is formed in all cases, nor does it mean that if no pus is found in the anti-um there is really no trouble there. There can be an inflamma- tion that thickens and ‘swells, the lining of the antrumpn inflamma- tion that forms a hard fibrous lin- ing instead of the moist soft lining, and an inflammation with the form- ation of pus.

Many of these cases require a simple operation such as enlarging the opening so that mucous or pus will drain out easily, while others require more serious methods, even to the removal of the entire lining, and allowing a new lining to form. Naturally this is delicate work and particular care must be taken to prevent damage to nerves and bloodvessels.

It is inflammation of these sin- uses in the cheek, forehead and about the eye socket that may cause a rise in temperature with- out the cause being suspected. What are the symptoms of sinus- itis? .

A pain over the cheek bone, over the root of the nose, or above either eye, may be due to lnfectior in the sinuses in these regions. Tendemess or pressure over-the cheek bone or over the forehead just above the eye, should cause the patint to suspct sinusitis and report immediately to his physician.-

Mischief Making ‘ Comment

KTOIODiD Globe, Literal)

The News-Chronicle of London, Eng” is authority for the statement that the British Government has learned with "astonishment and no little dismay" that Prime Minisiifl‘ Bennett will visit Washington to dismiss a. far-reaching trade pact with the United States. The jour- ney is forecast as “unostentatious, if not secret." The information that there will be reciprocal trade neg- otiations is public property, of course, and there seems to be no need for charging secrecy or in- tlmatlng that a deep dark plot is in the wind. Had the statement appeared in some other British paper than ‘the one which made itself conspicuous by antagonism to ward the Ottawa negotiations, it could be taken more seriously.

The probability is that, instead of learning with astonishment and dismay of these prospective nego-
