Passive Resistance

in rne Uld Ljotuitry the “conscientious ob- jector" seems to be less in evidence today than he was during the Great War. But the type still exists and one of its representatives has put fiirivard the tirgtimcitt that instead of going to war we should zidtipt “a policy or non-rc- sistaiicc, the saiiic as that of Gatidhi in India, where he has got ivhat he wanted without any of the hatred etigendered by war." v _ To ivhich the klanchcster Guardian replies! -'*\\'},L-;i,-_~.- or not .\lr. (iaiitlhi has_g0t all that hc ivmitcil, one rather important difference be- tween the two sets of circumstances is that ‘he Had the relative good fortune to be dealing with LIlC llriti>h tiiovcriitiiciit and not with Hitler". lt is one thing to try passive resistance with an elrphznit, which in spite of its size is §2lill to he a szigacititis aiid not uiikindly crea-

ture. To trv it with a boa-constrictor is to in- vite the satire fate as Austria or Czecho- Slovakia.

Health Problems In Canada

A tiro-yczit‘ study of the distribution of medical care zind public health services in Can- ada has been completed by the National Com- mittee for Mental I‘l_\‘,Q'lL‘1lC (Caitada) whose re- port, just issued, is the first comprehensive £il121l_\'.~lS of its kind and reveals some discon- certing problcttis. Too itiaiiy Canadian mothers, for example. die iii childbirth because adequate tncdical care is not readily available. Deaths from such preventable diseases as typhoid fever and diphtheria, and deaths dtie to milk-borne epidemics, indicate iirulcquzicy (if public health services in certain zircas. \\'hilc progress is be- ing iiizule in fighting tvhcrculosis, 2.500 more Silllillfifiil hcds arc ticcdctl for the Province of Quebec and the fllziritinic Provinces, and 500 trorc beds iii lllt‘ other Provinces.

"The outstanding weakness iti our public health services." szivs the report, “is that, with

pital care. not including medical core, on a pre- payment plan, is reported as having extended rapidly in recent years;

Voluntary health agencies such a5 the Can- adiaii Tuberculosis Association are commcndtni as making a. fine contribution to improvement of health conditions. Chief Ieniphasis, however, is placed on the importance of local public health departments.

As tp the best means of providing medical care, the committee confesses “we are not sure." Different plans are suited to different areas. What they claim for their report is its value in presenting the problem iii sitch a manner as to cause it to be readily grasped. The chal- lenge——addressed to Canadians "individually and collectively"-—is to find the solution.

It is now a year since the United States and Germany withdrew their respective ambassa- dors, but feeling iii the Roosevelt administrat- tiou continues such that high officials say there is not the slightest intention of sending an am- bassador to Berlin. It would be logical to send an ambasador to Berlin at this time because of the greatly added work thrust upon the United States embassy by the necessity of protecting the interests in Germany of Great Britain, France, Canada, Australia aiid New Zealand. Hence the fact that no ambassador is going to Berlin further accentuates the attitude of the

After ninety-eight seasons, remarks the New York Times, the Pliilhariiioiiic-Syiiipltoiiy Or- chestra has permitted the saxophone to achieve the dignity of a solo iiistrtiinctii. There was no tiittoivartl (lCfll0llSlTI1li1iil by the audience. Lis- teners of three or four gciicrzitioiis ago wcrc not so kindly disposed to such a breach in the coit- servative routine. When Franz Liszt, in the lZ-flat piano COIICCHEI, gave a more proniiiietil part to the triangle than that htimblc piece of steel had been accustomed to receive. the ctil- tivated Viennese audience expressed itself in no uncertain terms. The work could not be per- fortiied in that city for some years. klodern audiences are tolerant, and in the case of the saxophone the conditioning process has been, complete. blodern tiiusic has increasingly ex-l ploited the instrutiiciits of tltc tirchcstrzi.
