The Three important Points

When buying an engine. there are three things to look for: Reliability. Economy of Opa-ation. ‘and Dur- ability. Large corporations. who are keen buyers. are users of Fair- banks-Morse Diesel Engines. and are getting very satisfactory service. Such companies as the Laurentide Pulp b. Paper Co.. the Canadian International Paper Co. the New- foundlan’ Power 6s Paper Co.. use them for tug boat service; the largest fishery L mpanies on the Atlantic Coast use them exclusively. and there are numerous owners on the Pacific Coast.,-_When considering engines. ask us for a list of instal- lations in your vicinity.

WHAT IS THE PURPOSE?

LMOST daily the local Liberal organ treats its readers to an editorial rhapsody on the effective- ness of prohibitory law enforcement, at the same time indulging in vit- uryrative abuse of all and sundry who dare to express dissatisfaction with conditions as they are in this Province. The organs opinion of the intelligence of its readers is well indicated by the form of argu- ment it presents to them. The po- lice court records, the only avail- able officlal measure of sobriety for the city, give the lie direct to every claim that the Prohibition law is being effectively enforced. The explanation that "since the Police Department has been pro- vided with a patrol motor car the drunks are gathered in with far greater facility ‘than heretofore." will not satisfy even the most ar- dent political prohibitionlst. On this line of argument two patrol wag- ons would bring in a still greater lnumber, and the monthly record ;would be even worse than it is. 11f the law is being enforced even approximately. where do the drunks get their liquor?

Obviously from the bootlegger. who in turn is supplied by the rum- ‘runner. These law-breakers. com-aged by the pious pretense that conditions are as theyought to be, iare meanwhile plying their calling ‘and their victims appear in in- lcreasing numbers the courts. ‘The Government organ knows this. las the great majority of its read- ers know, for even in its own col- umns the truth. perhaps inadvert-

F‘ only one of the worlds great

countries were engaged in pro- ducing the world's food, the problem would be a comparatively easy one. The trouble at present is that prac- tically every country in the world is engaged in providing the food supply and although in a general way the quantity that each coun-

ITHAT the Baldwin Governmentis ' losing ground in popular favor seems to be generally admitted. a loss that might have been antici- pated, owlng to various causes. The kingdom is heavily burdened with

High customsJsrifl’ Germany and France. and great dustrial activity in those and othe countries are shutting out British manufacturers from once profitable markets. These are conditions that ' naturally tend to producrdlscon- tent and they furnish unitions of - war for the opposing- Liberal and _ Labor parties and they are making the most of their opportunties for attack upon the Government.

Tho Baldwin Government at this distance appears to be the best all round Administration that the Mother Country has had since the war, but since that era Govern- ments have been limited to short terms of power in many countries. There have been rumors of a pos- siblc coalition between the Liberal and Labor parties, but the recent Liberal Conference at Yarmouth gave no indication of any movement in that direction. Lloyd Gcorgelat the conference disappointed the hopes of those who favored uniting the Opposition forces in that way, and he intimated that the Liberal party would fight the election on its l’ merits, preserving its integrity and independence. He did not predicts. Liberal victory, but apparently hopes that his following will in- clude enough members to hold the balance of power between Obnscrv- atives and Laborites in the next - Parliament, and be able to dictate Labor

The lack of an immigration policy has been in evidence at Ottawa from the beginning of the present Gov- ernment's term of power. Premier King is in London and Hon. Robert Forke. the Minister of Immigration recently addressed the Diberal As- sociation at Winnipeg. Both the Prime Minister and Mr. Forke have been talking about immigration, but apparently the latter does not know what his chief has been saying and ldoing on the other side. The Prime

effect, that the Dominion Govern- rment was prepared to pay all the expense of passage in certain cases, besides giving general assistance. Mr. Forke at Winnipeg stated that serious consideration was being giv- en to a plan to establish a flat rate for all British immigrants over 17 years of age, thus abolishing the assisted passage scheme and doing away with the civil examination for single men of selected types.

llow different and how irrecon- sileable the announcement of the Prime Minister in London is from that to which his Minister of Im- migration is seriously coilsirlering in Canada is at once apparent. Equally apparent is tho fact that the Government after tlic lapse of ycnrs have not formed any settled policy in regard to British immi- gration. That Mr. Forke is entire- ly unfit for the position he holds as the price of a political deal to sc- curc Progressive support, has. long

true, but the legitimate costs which may be incurred by a candidate in persuading millions of electors to vote for him, are very great, with- out any resort to bribery. Publicity propaganda will be used to the limit on behalf of both Mr. Hoover and Governor, Smith. They are now in middle life and neither of them was born in pogession of the traditional "silver spoon". Only one can be- come President and his salary dur- ing four years in the White House will net him but a fraction of what it costs to elect him. " '

A tax on bachelors has been im- posed by Mussolini.

VALUE or BLOOD T0 OTHERS. AFTER an ILLNESS

During the Flu epidemic in 1918-19. it was bur custom to ask those patients fully recovered and about to leave hospital, to give a small quantity of their blood. about a ounce or two, which was injected i130 the blood vessels o! cases of Flu seriously ill with broncho-pneu- inonia, which so frequently followed the flu.

In some patients with a tempera- ture of 104 digfiés F, after one in- jection of this convalescent scrum, as it is called. the temperature came down to 100 degrees F. and never did go up again, the patient recovering in a short time. ' Indeed the results were so gratify- ing that there was no lack of volun- teers to give blood to help comrades less fortunate than themselves. You already know of course how vaccination for small pox and typ- hoid fever has reduced these ail- ments to a mimimum. Vaccination simply means giving the individual a slight attack of the ailment to prevent a severe one which might be fatal. Now Drs. C. Wesselhoeft of Bos- ton, and F. F. Gordon of North- amptcn, Mass. tell us of an experi- ment with measles serum. They found that single doses of a serum made from the blood of measles pat,- ients who had recovered, had the ef- fect of markedly reducing the sever- ity of an epidemic of fneisles which invaded the scarlet fever and diph- theria ivards. Among 76 of these patients that were exposed to the measles, 25 were not given any serum. and the whole 25. or 100 per cent. came down with the measles. of -this number, 16 had severe measles.

Of the 51 exposed patients without a history of having had measles be- fore, who were given the measles serum. only 14 contracted measles. aild only one had a severe rash.

One patient died of both groups. As a matter of record this one had ' not received the convalescent serum. Now in the light of the above fig- ures, it is not hard to understand why. all over the world, research men are working patiently on the problem of how to prevent disease in mankind. They see what can be accomplished, for their fellow men.
