She points out that in Americans spent Sm bllllml ll" liquor, 35 billion for tobacco. and 31264 million for chewing gum. Also in l935, almost 52 billion were Sllflll on research in military weapons.

Turning to the effect of disease

on the economic status of the coun- try Mrs. Smith states that it amounted last year to roughly !i30 billion. For all that, in the last. de- code medical research has added 5 years to the average life expectancy of Americans. The new drugs which were discovered in th at period brought about I drastic reduction in the death rates from some of the major diseases-e.g. influenza, 77';. appendicitis, 6966;, pneumonia, 5()"r, kidney disease, 4393. With respect to heart disease, Dr. Pa ul Dudley White, the famed specialist, told Mrs. Smith that in his own research he has to depend largely on his own means, because sufficient govern- ment funds are not available.

There would seem to be no dis- puting Mrs. Smith's supposition that a country which can afford to spend S15 billion a year on liquor and tobacco ought to be able to put up S300 million I year for research into health problems. It is a fair assump- tion that on I per capita basis 8- similar situation exists in this coun- try. Yet, there are those in places of governmental responsibility who seem to be dubious about the coun- try's ability to undertake a com- prehensive health plan which would include ample funds for research as well as for care of the sick.

Two Tombs

Within t.he last few days two his- torical tombs have been opened bi" searchers of an inquisitive turn of mind; and in each case the result of the digging brought disappointmcnt. The first venture took place in Egypt where sturdy Moslems, singing the praises of Allah and Mahomet his prophet. dug into a pyramid where I princess of the 12th dynasty (circa 2000 B.C.) was supposed to be rest- ing in peace, surrounded by rich em- blems of royal dignity. But. alas. when the grave was opened only the Imblems-gold leaf. alabaster boxes. silver vases, and such like-were revealed; the mummy of her late Highness was nowhere to be seen. It was a disappointment, doubtless, for digging for mummies must be hard work. Still, Allah be praised! there was no great issue involved for this generation; and soon the Egyptians will find some other relic to satisfy their curiosity; since, apparently, mummies in Egypt are as plentiful Is colonels in Kentucky--and, one is tempted to suggest, almost as im- portant In the unfolding of civiliz- Itloffl story.

The situation with respect to the Mlle! venture is much more news-

Not since Neville Chamber- l;l.n's time has a government leader lwcn st) severely scolded by his politi- ('.Il associates. And. a statement mzulc by Dr. tlcoffrey Fisher, Arch- bisllop of Canterbury, has added strcngth to the rumours and a meas- ure of plausibility to the complaints. in a recent speech, for which he was taken to task by a government spokcsm-an. Dr. Fisher charged the Prime Minister with "inaction" in the Cypriot dispute. He was refer- ring to Sir Anthony's declaration that there could be no further nego- tiations with Cypriot leaders "until law and order have been restored". At the same time. the Archbishop took occasion to pay a tribute to the Colonial Secretary, Mr. Lennox- Boyd. whom he called "an able and liberal minded administrator". The implication was that the Prime Minister and the Colonial Secretary are at odds on this delicate issue. And. if that is so, It is at least pos- sible that other members of the cab- inet are uneasy over official govern- ment. policy. It is very rarely indeed that dissidence over policy is confin- ed to one official.

Archbishops are not immune to error, and, in fact, have erred from time to time, especially when they have participated in political con- troversy. It is therefore, possible that Dr. Fisher's observations. and the implications to be derived there- from. are not in accordance with the actual situation at Whitehall. All the same, added to the rumours and complaints aforesaid. they do ap- pear to suggest that Prime Minister Eden, justly or unjustly, is going through the most critical period of his generally brilliant and service- able career.

MIGRAINE HEADACHI-is DIMINIBII AFTER FIFTY

Sometimes there seems to be In Idvnntoge in getting old. While some of the body's machinery be- gins to run down Is we pass the half century mark, certIln Ill- ments which we might have Illd throughout our earlier llfe tend to clear up.

Women appear to be more nus- ceptlble lo migraine than Ire men. And the disorder is particularly likely to be found in conscientious or emotionally unstable persons. lieredity also appears to be a fac- or.

Individual cases may follow eye- strain. fatigue, emotional strain. the menses or ovulation. Eating certain foods may cause allergic migraine.

UNTREATED ATTACK

An untreated attack may last for several hours or even for days. Some Victims experience several attacks a week, others may have only one or two I ycar. Generally, attacks diminish during pregnancy. And they may cease entirely after the menopause, but this. of course is not true in every case.

Once you've had an attack. you should try to prevent another by avoidlnc nervous and emotional disturbances whenever possible. Keep regular hours, get plenty of sleep and avoid eyestraln. if you wear glasses. have them checked to make sure you have the right prescription.

Keep your bowels normal by eat- in: the proper foods. not by (Ik- Ing laxatives. And be alert for In allergy to any specific food which might bring on an attack.

At the first symptoms of I ml- graine headache, you might lie down in a quiet, darkened room. Wet cloths, either hot or cold. or a hot water bag or an ice bag. may be applied lo your head. Try both heat and cold to determine which Is best for relieving the pain. TIGHT BANDAGE

A filzht bandage around your head at the forehead might help. too. And you can try plunging your hands into ice water for one min- ute. Repeat this three times It half hour intervals.

One or two Isplrln or cmpirln compound lablets may bring ro- llef. But it is always best to no your doctor. He has numerous drugs at his disposal, which can bring prompt relief.

Davy Jones' Ashes

VICTORIA (CPI-Ashes of DIvy Jones. the gnl” s' goldmlner. have been scattered in the pub of Klondike-bound ships In line with his dying request.

For 63 years he panned for god dust in British Columbin and I Yukon. using I pan of soft Russian iron which came Iround the Horn I! s Hudson bay frying pan for miners in the Carlboo gold rush.

When in the Rockies he used the pan as a gong to sure off grizzly bears for he never carried I gun. He led his burro. mushed with his dog team or pack-bscked. Ind kept at it until his 89th year.

Davy never made I good stake but he always got enough dust to pay his way. Once he was offered 88.000 for a claim on the Albernl canal, but his pIrtnel's held out for 380.000 and the deIl fell through.

As long as there was bsnnock in the pan, the bewhlskered little man was halJl7.V. He was I year late reaching Klondike. but once there he ”snIped" gold In most of the famous creeks.

As a rough and ready reader of the racks he had few equals from Mexico to the Klondike Ind, like III miners, he believed he had I clue to where the untapped mother- lode lay.

Giving funeral instructions, he said: ”Wrap me up in my old mackinnw and ship me down to Victoria where they will cremnto me for S40. Just lay me down on I log. Then scatter my Ishes on the Gulf of Georgia near where the bilz ships pass on their way to the Klondike."

He left all his money-S600 odd- to the Senior (Titiu.-ns' Home It Courtenay, 70 miles north of hero.
