TRIAL BY BALLYHOO

Commenting on the sensational publicity given the Hauptmann trial in the United States, the ‘Ilcrccito Globe comments that a. detached onlooker could scarcely escape the conclusion that in the proceedings an all-time high msrk has been set for "mar by Ballyhoo." so pow- erful are the new agencies of sen- sationslism used in this connection. it says, that even the “sob-sister” of high emotional voltage seems des- tined to be crowded ungnllantly in- to the background.

Bud: a tid-bit it copies from the news columns of the Financial Pod

(the very name savor-s of "big in-

terests") in attack upon the Mar- keting Act. The Act in itself needs no defense at this stage. Adopted with a... ..1~by practically all the farmers and i‘ r and produc- ers of Canada. and by Premiers Hepburn of Ontario, Taschereau of Quebec, Mscdonald of Nova. Bcotia and Pattullo of British Columbia,

its popularity has ascended above‘

petty criticism and carping. What I object to is misrepresen- tation of its provisions and its pur- poses. The Post says (falsely) ,—- “Brand new marketing organiza- tions will be set up: thrown these

channels and through these alone‘

will the farmer be allowed to sell. Assuming present plans go through, hewillbc putinjailifhesells a doaen of ems or a. quarter of beef." To which is added a. lot of similar buncombc.

There is no such stupidity with- in the four comers of the Act. Nor has it been contemplated under any devised or accepted marketing scheme under the Act. ‘Sensation- aiism of this type, intended to cre-

ate diiscontentjmay easily be con-v

trived by propagandists, and that is the sum and substance of the Posts objective. ,

It is true that powers may be ex- excised. to prevent producing com- bines from _ demoralizing market demand by price slashing o; by un- reasonable flooding or dumping. But not a. syllable to prohibit any farmer of producer from exercising his individual business rights.

Even when placed under limita- tions. which may occur, forthe benefit of the whole community, he is protected from individual loss by the following clauses:

Sec. 4, (b) "to exempt from any determination o1- ordel- any person or class of persons engaged in the

Animals that, for the time being. deprived of the full or usual amount of oxygen in the air sho a delay of several hours in e emptying time of the stomachs. You can understand that If there -is a delay of several hours in‘ the emptying time of the stomach an- other meal is likely to be eaten while some of the food of the pre- vious meal is still in the stomach. This causes indigestion and gas dis- tension. -

Now we can's iivs outdoors but we can ventilate the home by means of windows, doors, o1- mechanical methods. While nearly everybody ventilates the bedroom during sleep, allowing air to come in after meals is just as important as we see how necessary to digestion is the oivylren in the air. _
