and that the average ages of the of- fenders are from fourteen to sixteen. At the latter age the boy is read! to pass into the muturb "Bang" which under the lead of a “racketeer". becomes o. successful professional murder mob, affording its members steady work, protection from the po- lice, funds for bail and lawyers if they get into trouble, and luxuries while in jail. These mobs are es- sentially organizations of profession- al killers and protectors of lawless

enterprises.

“The gambler and the speak- easy proprietor are. by the very nature of their unlawful under- takings, subject to levy from blackmailers and competitors." A beer truck need guards; a gam- bling joint must be protected against hold-ups and extortion: an underworld political machine 0n election day needs “workers” with guns to protect the interests of the racketeer. The murder mob supplies these services, using whatever weapons are suited to the occasion; machine guns and automatic rifles for the general run of business; hand grenades ("pineapples") for the doorsteps of judges, prosecutors, and public officials who have earned the en- mity of the racketeer.

"A beer running racket which produces an income of 81.000900 a week. as Chicago records show. is worth protecting. Three hun- dred and fifty gambling Joints with an estimated income of $3,- 000,000 a night offer a fertile field for the racketeefs services, and since protection is essential and a risky game, it is well paid for. In the meantime, the boy gangster is. in an atmosphere of big money, heavy talk and thrills without end. Perhaps he had seen his chieftain in animated conversation with a. United States Senator-which instantly 1m- presses the youth that he is at last in the presence of tremend- ous power."

It is quite clear that if the boys are to be saved from the gangster men- ace it must be done during their childhood. Prohibitive laws and punishment will not suffice. While

a.-

in the United States, it is encourag- ing to note that child welfare organ- izations are increasing their vigilance, and while placing less emphasis upon, legal restrictions and punishments, are insisting more and more on pro- per moral training in the home and

school. .

'LOVE'S LABOR. LOST.

"Looking over the Robb budget,” says the Ottawa Journal, "one wonders what happens to all the evidence that is taken by Mr. Billy Moore? That estimable, able and industrious gen- tleman seems to work harder for less result than any man in the world. All last summer, while the rest of us were playing golf, or losing money in the stock market, Mr. Moore was up there in the mate Block in a stuffy little roorn hearing countless witness- es and burying himself in a perfect mountain of decimals and averages and percentages. He heard the ce- ment people, and the iron and steel people, and the coal people; tinker, tailor nd candlestick maker. And nothlrg has happened. Mr. Robb acted as though there never was a Tariff Commission at all; didn't men- tion steel. or coal, or cement; or uny- thing. It is a curious performance."

He claimed that past dissensiorls in the party had been healed and that the Liberal party is now united. , Mr. Lloyd George affirmed that if his party were returned to power, it would wipe out the scourge of unem- ployment within a year without add- ing u penny to the taxation. His plan did not involve relief work. he declared. The Liberal scheme is to undertake national works which must be’ handled sooner 0r later if the na- tion is to be properly equipped. It would involve the reorganization of the transport system and extensive road-building. drtining immense arcs-s of swamps, reforestation, im- provement of mines and telephone systems and cleaning up the slums.

The Government could safely bor- row mouoy for this works in anti- cipation of increasing revenue there- from within o very few years. The present Government has borrowed forty millions to keep men on the dole in enforced idleness. Surely the money can be borrowed for these schemes. to remove the disgrace and humiliation of unemployment. The four great oustanding reproaches in the statesmanship of Great Britain- chronic unemployment, the collosal national drink bill, the decay of the countryside-must be removed. He reported unemployment as the most urgent of all the problemg. and de- clared it to be not merely e. burden but a national dislster.

CBLOBIDE ’ 0F LIME FOR TEE

_ HEART

Some months ago you read in papers that King George's physic- ians were giving him calcium

As you know the ordinary every- day IIBIIIO~ for calcium is lime, and your thought about it is likely that it is simply a bleaching powder or a disinfectant.

You know also of its power to ren- der water safe to drink, and this means life or death to armies, to camps, or to individuals who, when thirsty, may drink from any stream ,or pool available. A levelteaspoonful of chloride of. lime will purify hund- reds of gallons of waiter.

Just all that‘ it does in the body is not known at present. But even as it has the powers to destroy odors and harmful organisms about stables and out houses, so also can it destroy harmful organisms in the body.

One of its uses has been to thicken or coagulate the blood in individuals subject to bleeding. "or those who have some internal organ or tissue that is bleeding.

Its power to heal old ulcers, veri- cose ulcers of the leg, has been demonsraied during the past three years in many hospitals.

You will remember that King George, after the pneumonia and plsurisy had subsided, was very weak, and measures were taken to build up hisstrength. .

This included artificial sunlight. and later the use of calcium or lime.

After a severe illness of this kind the mineral content of the tissues seems to be low and lime is one of Nature's best mineral builders.

Howeverjts eflect ilpon the heart muscle make it a. most valuable drug because it increases the contracting or squeezing power of the heart Just when the heart muscle is about ex- hausted. It appears to have such an aflect in the walls of the blood vessels that they become more relaxed, and permit the blood to pass through them with less resistance.

This makes things easier for the heart to do its work.

You can thus see then our old friend, chloride of lime. ilist a. disin- fectant in former days, now is recog- nized as of use in skin ailments, in bleeding of all kinds, in building up the structure of the body in children and adults. and finally as a most ef- ficient heart tonic.

I dislike talking about dosage, as 5 gains at a dose is more than enough for some patients and others take as much as 15 grains safely.

It is given in water, milk, or syrup, three times a day after meals.

Ask, your- doctor about it for any of the above uses.

British Blood In Senate

(I. v. means la _Toronto mu oudlmpirol

An editorial note culled attention to the predominance of British Blood in the veins of members of the United States senate. Ind the suggestion has been made that further details mllht be of the most extraordinary interest. An examination of the national ori- gins of the senators was undertaken because of the new immigration bill that is before congress. The quota bill, provided that an immigration from any European country should be lim- ited to two per cent. annually of the number of former residents of that country in the United States in 1800. Thatis to say, if there “ , ned to be in the United States 1,000 former Lithuenians, including Jack sharkey. in 1800, the United States would per- mit 20 more to enter annually. But this bill also contained a clause, which has been twice postponed, providing that in 1927 the quota should be bas- ed upon not, the origins of the for- eigu-born in the country in i890, but upon the origins of all Americans, native and foreign born in 1020.

AID T0 THE BRITISH ‘ i Now the British emigration to the United States book place before the middle of the nineteenth century, and the number of former Englishmen liv- in: in that country in 1890, would be muchsmaller-in proporticuiothetotal population than the number of for- mer Englishmen livlll8 in the United States c. hundred years earlier, The effect of the provision which may soon come into effect. will be to favor those countries which contributed to the old colonial stock, and of course. this means the British more than any other race. Similarly there will be fewer immigrants admitted under the changed quota who s ,msent the newer immigration, such as the Ital- ians. Germans ct a1. For instance, un- der the present plan, the percentages admitted have been British, 21 per cent; Irish, 17 per cent; Swedish, d per cent and so forth. But the na- tional origins of the American na- tion as computed for 1920 show that it was made up of 43 per cent Brit- ish stoek, 16 per cent German, 11 par cent South Irish, two per cent Scan- dinavian, etc.

THE BRITISH GENIUS

The British people have always been credited with s. special genius for government, and for the art- of government which h politim. ‘I'll-is is strikingly confirmed by glancing at the racial origins of the members of the United States Senate, which may be fairly assumed to contain the most expert professors in the art of poli- tics to be found in the country. If we were to go a step higher and con- sider the presidency we should 11nd that there hes been no president lack- iilg in British blood, and this would be equally true of all vice-pridonts. Even the vicc-president-elect, Senat- or Curtis, who is the most American of senators, having a. liberal portion of North American Indian blood in his veins, is English on his father's side. The assumption is that the sen- ate. being so well fortified with the best blood in the world. will probably support a measure which will admit more of that same blood. The sen- ate consists of 96 members, but one seat is now vacant. 0f the 95 senat- ors no fewer than 8"! have some Eng- lish blood in their veins, and, look- ing them over, we do not find those who lack this ingredient any the bet- tor for it.

AFINENIIXTURE

Perhaps the most versatile in the matter of racial ancestry is r Bayard of Delaware. On his father's side he is a somewhat confusing mix- ture of French, Dutch, Swedish. Bun- goriun, Imglieh. Irish, Welsh and Scotch. On his mother's sideJlo is relatively pure being English with l. Bavarian strain. It might be dimcult to flnd u war anywhere which would leave Senator Bayard wholly neutral. We blush to learn that Senator Colo Blouse. the South Carolina ilrebrand And domlgoguc, is English on both sides. The equally obnoxious Hofliu, of Alabama is far from a choice com- posite of scotch. Irish, English, Welsh and Hench.
