While these two gmbassadors of Empire Free Trade are discharging their self imposed task in the Dominion and in the press, m. Churchill, whom they were boosting as Mr. Baldwin's suc- cessor, is playing his part in the House of Commons. A great fuss has been made of the "Gentleman's Agreement!" There is nothing sec- ret about it and the only difference between it and any other arrange- ment come to at Lausanne is this: 'I‘h.at the representatives of the United States have unofficially in- timated that they are prepared to discuss favorably at the coming World Conference the pruning

of war debts.

There ls nothing new or surpris- ing in this. While the conference was in session at Lausanne Mr. Owen D. Young, the American chairman of the International Ex- pert Committee, which framed the Young Plan, which was then under discussion, intimated that Europe's lead would be followed by America.

Mr. Lloyd George in the course of I

an address declared: “America has lost in a single year three times as much as the whole capital value of the war debts due to her, and nearly 90 times as much a5 the total m’ one year's annuity."

Thus itwill beseen, for the United States as for Europe, the cancel- lation of war debts is X101; e, matter of generosity, but of self interest, and just as soon as the elections are over in the Republic all business men and statesmen will be of one mind in agreeing to wipe the slate clean, or nearly clean, in order that the world may make a new start.

As Premier Ramsay MacDonald declared:

NO PUBLIC SUPPORT

Steps recently taken for the de- portation of Communists have prompted a discussion in the Cana- dian Police Bulletin l-s to whether

or not Communism has shot its bolt in Canada, as to whether it has "passed the zenith of its appeal to the restless spirited and seen the heyday of its ability to stir up trouble in l/hg cities and towns of Canada, and to poison the minds of her youth." some encouraging signs are noted notwithstanding the un- abated activity of subsidized Com- munist agents and propagandists. It is true, as observed by the Bul- letin, that last winter seemed made to order for the agitator, the Do- minion being faced with a most serious economic situation, with un- employment widespread creasing, and that all this brought.

The New York Times published n. letter on "World Emtanglements," in which Mr. C. A.

He points out that the ablest men in the republic were long ago con- vinced as to the necessity of can- cellation or a drastic scaling down of international war debts. Great Britain, France, Germany and Italy are ready whenever the United States is.

HIVES — UBTICABIA

There may be some lnflviduflg who have never had a single attack of the hives or urticaria as it is called, but most of us, if we will go back far enough, will likely remem- ber one or more attacks. . . That an attack of the hives can be brought on any time by some in- dividuals is only too true because they have learned that certain ‘foods will cause urticaria every time they are eaten. Such foods as strawberries, eggs, shell fish and other excellen foods just will not agree with their systems, set up a sort of poisoning, and hives appear. An interesting point has how- ever been discovered by some of these sufferers. Much to their sur- prise and satisfaction they find that they are now able to eat some of these foods that formerly caused the hives. While this is due in some cases to the fact that their system ,has got used (sentitized) to these ‘foods, in other cases it is because they have had some infection clear- ed from the system-infected teeth, tonsils, gall bladder and so forth. It was this infection that prevented the system from hand- ling certain foods properly and so hives appeared.

It is known that urticaria may i be caused by certain foods; by the ‘ use of certain drugs; by the serum ‘ used in lockjaw, diphtheria, tuber-

culosis and others; in certain ail- } ments such as malaria, rheumatism 4 asthma, whooping cough, and other l diseases; complicating

children's skin ailments such as scabies-the i itch; and by a bite or sting of mos- quito, bee, wasp or other insect. What‘ about treatment? About a year ago I spoke of the

Berlin, by the use of the ordinary baking soda in doses of two to

a day, after meals.

However as most of the cases arise from something that has been eatcnthe first thought should be to rid the system of this substance by the use of Epsom or Rochelle salts.

Local treatment is the use of warm baths in which one or two handfuls of washing soda have been placed.

In severe cases, where swelling of mouth or throat might cause suf- focation, a few drops of adrenalin is injected into the skin by the physician.

The Speech Limit

(Manchester Guardian)

One of our more sensitive and hinnane membe a of Parliament - or perhaps one who is more than usually conscious of the defects of others —— was implorlng the Speaker the other day to devise some means of discouraging long speeches in the House. He sug- gested that the speaker ahould' encourage brevity by showing special favor to the craters who had pledged themselves in ad- vance not to talk for more than a quarter of an hour - a proposal which implies either a fresh tax on the Speaker's memory or some sort of a badge that would distur- guish the reticent sheep from the giddy and more verbose goats. But the Speaker would have none of this suggestion; every member must be allowed the same chance
