The Problem At Falconwood

To the shame and disgrace of the Liberal party in this Province be it said, the needs of mr unfortunate fellow citizens at Falconwood Hospital have not only been utterly disregarded, out the question of adequately planning for their :are and treatment, undertaken by the late Mac- .VIillan Government, has been held up to deris- .on and ridicule as an example of Tory ex- zravagance. In two provincial election campaigns ‘his issue was exploited unscrupulously by .‘ll(‘llll.)6l'S an.l supporters of the Campbell Gov- zrnment, whose only concern with regard to Falconwood, judging from their speeches, has been for the farm and livestock at that institu- tion. In the words of a leading member of the Government, “most of the people out there only need to be kept warm-——they don't need treat- ment."

The Grand Jury which yesterday made its report in the Supreme Court is of a different opinion. It declares emphatically that there is "very definite need for increased accommodation whereby the doctors could segregate and clas- sify mucli more effectively the various types of patients." It suggests “that by providing ex- ternal accommodation for attendants and nurses, the necessary acconiniodation for the patients could be thus provided." It expresses amaze- ment at “the entire absence of fire escapes on the men’s building,"—a matter which had been brought to the attention of the authorities on a previous occasion. It recomm‘ends “the erection of a new laundry building andpcarpenter shop," also the paving of the road leading to the Asylum.

These and other needed improvements were embodied in the plans prepared under the Mac- Millau Government, which the people of this Province were misled into believing would mean unnecessary and wasteful expense.

What does the Campbell Government pro- pose to do about this problem?

British Potato Embargo Tighlened

The British Government has repeatedly re fused to permit entry of Canadian potatoes into the Old -County, on the ground that there was danger of importing the potato-bug as well. This Province along with New Brunswick spent I good deal of money uselessly in sending re- presentatives to London to plead for removal of the embargo. Even after it was demonstrated to visiting British officials that bug-free shipments could be made from the Maritimes, they refused to be convinced. The reason for their attitude was believed to be the opposition of British agricultural organizations.

Now however these restrictions are being ex- tended to apply to European countries. A Lon- don despatch states that migratory flights of potatoes bugs across Belgium from France to Holland have brought a new headache to the British Ministry of Agriculture. Present re- strictions on shipments of plants to Britain from France, Belgium, Luxemburg, Holland and Switzerland have been extended to require 3 certificate of freedom from Colorado beetle eggs, larvae or adults_ The Ministry had dis- trihuted circulars describing the beetle and urg- ing farmers to watch closely for it and report its presence inimcdiately it has been discovered. The circular warns also against unauthorized spraying of any potato patches in which the in- sects might be found, fearing that poisoning of the food supply might cause the bugs, to migrate to other fields and become distributed over a wide area. The new certificate accompanying shipment must establish that no infestation of crops has occurred within 50 kilometres oflhe patch in which the shipped potatoes have been grown and that freedom from infestation must have endured during the twelve months previ- ous to shipment.

Cana(la is not the only country against which the British embargo previously applied. Potato imnortations from United States and France had also been prohibited.

Autarchic Foods

“Did the Romans drink coffee i” ask: one en-

to returnto the customs of our ancestors.”

‘Good Fascists, says Achille Starace, secretary-

general of the Fascist party, will drink "en- ergetic nutarchic drinks" like ‘juices of grapes, herbs; fruits, . ' ‘

No banquet of ancient times was a banquet at all unless some exotic food or drink was served at it. Lucullus would have died of mortification had circumstances compelled him to "drink Italian” or “eat Italian."

Royal Visit On Films

Not less than 80,000 feet of films have been used in making motion pictures of the Royal

pool of motion—picture and news-reel photo- graphers under direction of the head of the Government motion picture bureau, Ottawa, who has possession of the films.

The Dominion Government, to which no pro- position has yet been submitted, is expected to authorize the welding-together of all the pic- tures.‘ Many suggestions that this be done look- ing to exhibition all over the country, are being received. This would tend to amplify interest, if 1 it were possible, in the Royal tour. It would also permit the masses, in one city, to have a picture of what went on elscwhere~—in Canada and the United States. ' Likewise, thousands who were unable to go to any place on the tour can evision the Cele‘ bration from the comfort of theatres, or local community centres. I

If and when it is put on, it will be a long show. It is estimated that four hours at least, will be required for the whole exhibition. Many of the pictures are in color.

The banks are bulging with money which they don't know what to do with except lend to governments, as nobody is starting anything in the way of new industries The exemption of ex- tension of plants from income tax for business expansion is being taken advantage of, so far ‘only by mining and kindred enterprises, and the fear there is that the “peg" at any time may be taken out of the ‘PTICC of gold.

As a result of political unheavals in Europe. money men and industries are daily knocking at the gates of Canada. But as a result of Can- ada’s political and economic difficulties only the first are being accepted without question. Re- fugees are being strictly Jimited both as ‘to quantity and quality. Even refugee industries which in former days would have been eagerly welcomed must now run the gauntlet of opposi- tion from established Canadian manufacturers, The latest case in point is that of the Bata shoe company of Czecho Slovakia said to be the larg- est industry of its kind in the world,. whose present head managed to escape his country Just before Hitler occupied it. It is understood the company plans a factory at Prescott, Dntario, which would supply the British Domimons as well as the Canadian market and wanted to im- port Czech technicians for a start. Canadian shoe manufacturers disliking this new com- petition concentrated on the skilled worker fea- ture of it and asked that‘ none be admitted. It is believed that the company and the Canadian Government may compromise by admitting, only

If the spur is not too long or loo sharp, soft insoles or pads for the heel which have 8 hole into which the spur fits, usually give relief. It was not until the dis- covery of the Xray that the cause of so many painful heels was learned. *

A former method of removing the agar was to make an opening at. at of heel—not through the sole——end remove the spur with I chisel. This often set up im in- flammatlon of the membrane cov- ering the bone that was as painful as the spur itself.

A new method of giving relief to those suffering severe pain because of these bony spurs is described by Dr. James R. Regan, Milwaukee, in the Journal of the Amerloin Medical Association, who says: "For the past, five years in those cases of spurs on heel bone which were painful and which did not respond to the use of well-fitting supports, feet pads. and shoe cor- rectlon, the following procedure was carried out. At the point of greatest tenderness an ordinary hypodermic needle was thrust through the skin of the sole of heel until it reached the heel bone. Then a few drops of 2 per- cent procaine hydrochloride was injected, followed. in a few mo. merits by '1 1-2 drops of sodium morrhuate ln 5 percent benzyl al- chohol. The relief from the symptoms was rapid and pro- lonr_d. Thlrly-three patients re- oeived this treatment and all but one obtained relief. The relief ob- tained usually lasts for between two and three years, after which mother injection may be glven."
