‘ .4» Appeal to Fair Play

The Brantford Expositor. although tacitly and by tradition a Liberal or- gan, frankly argua in favor of Mr. Bennett being given an unhampered opportunity to test his policies. 1n that vein it says:

“All patriotic Canadians will wish the new Government every success in grappling with the gigantic problems it is called upon to face because of the general economic conditions. There are those ex- Imie partisans who an perhaps secretly rejoicing over the difiiciilt- ies the Bennett administration will encounter because of the rapid de- cline in the revenue of all depart- ments, and they are hoping that the tarlfl will be placed so high that the people will revolt and a reac- tion set in. This is, however, not the popular view."

And further:

“There has been an unceasing cry on the pan of -the manufacturers of this country for greater protec- tion. and now that the agricultur- ists have given evidence at the polls of a somewhat similar sentiment, there is no reason why Mr. Ben- nett should not introduce his pol- icies without the compromise that his predecessors in office have had l to make. and the spirit of the coun- _ try will undoubtedly be to give them s. fair trial."

easily do harm. for the Liberals in

have had many demonstrations dur-

block the administration in giving effect to its policies. Mr. Bennett has the clear and. unequivocal mandate of the People to go ahead. The same mandate tacitly directs Mr. King to stay his hand. and if Mr. King is a wise and patriotic man he will, not disregard it. Both these leaders would do well. at the same time. to recog- nize the fact that public judgment :ares very little indeed for purely par- tisan squabbling. It prefers construct-

The Indian Problem

In view of the inflamatory articles which are constantly appearing in the American press on the subject of India's present trouble it is refreshing to read the tolerant and broad-mind- ed opinion of that distinguished Am- erican. the Rev. Dr. Parker Cadman, who in a recent sermon over the radio nciwork of the United States, with a uedteuce of probably 40,000,000 American people. said:

"Take Mexico. with only A0000.- 000. not like India with 3001100000 and more. and does any statesman in America. know what is best to do with Mexico? If he docs. let him stand up and say so.

"The history of India. especially linoe the day of British occupancy. has been one of progress. a crowing iense of natlonalitv. and Britain nerself has fostered the feclinl 01 independence which now threatens her ruin. It is sometimes a habit among certain kinds of Americans on every occasion possible to dero- gate and speak with disparage- ment of Great Britain. Give me leave to say that when the account is struck and well balanced the British Empire is the greatest force for Christian civilization and politi- ml freedom in the world today, and what she cannot do for India can- not be done by any power."_

Continual soaking of the hands and arms in water, or water with soda or other alkali in it, certain chemicals or dyes; substances like turpentine and benzine which re- move the natural oil from the skin.

As a matter of fact the removal of this natural protective oil causes the skin to dry and crack easily, thus making it easy for organisms or other harmful matter to cause trouble, which is very slow in healing.

And there are still other cases which cannot be traced to foods eat-

en, or to any skin irritant. and thesel that fime- In We yell‘ 1735 8 wm- ‘_ daughters. twenty-eight grandchild-

And yet the use of bending and twisting exercises to increase the flow of bile from the liver and gall blad- der. and stimulate the large intestine to hasten the waste matters out of the body, has brought brilliant rc- sults in these cases.

Now what does all this mean?

That, as a matter of tact eczema may be due to any of the three
