~ H Our local contemporary quotes a

visiting Quebec Liberal politician as predicting a Liberal victory in the Dominion elections. This, of course. is s case oi the wish being iather to the thought. As evidence oi the way the political wind is blowing such statements are oi iar less value than the iact, reported by the Can- adian Press a few days ago, that 1dr. R. W. E. Landry, KC, a former Liberal member of the Nova Scntia Legislature, has accepted the Con- servative nomination for Shelburne-

' ' ' Yarmouth-Clare.

, Mr. Landry, like many other thinking citizens, has discovered that there is nothing in Liberal policies oi benefit to Canada at this time, and has repudiated them. lock, stock and barrel, to support the policies oi the Bennett admin- , istration.

The shifty campaign tricks to which leading Liberal campaign speakers have resorted is the best evidence that they realise they are fighting a losing battle. Hon. Rob- ert Weir, Minister oi Agriculture in the Bennett Government, exposed these tactics in a recent address when he read two reports in the same addition oi s westem Liberal newspaper. one or a meeting in the west at which Premier Hepburn was present and at which Liberal speak- ers announced that the Liberal government would “wipe out all tariffs and trade restrictions in Canada"; and another recording that Mackenzie King, at Halifax, “who “would not lower any tar- iiis that would aflect any industry in the Dominion of Canada."

As to the frequent Liberal al- legations that the Bennett Govern- ment had lost all our markets for agricultural products, Mr. Weir quoted former Liberal Finance Minister Charles Dunning, in i930: "We have lost all the major mark- ets oi the world for our farm pro- ducts, except the United Kingdom."

EDITORIAL NOTES

Premier Hepburn finding the West hopeless for King hopes for better luck here. But wasn't it Mr. A. E. McLean who edged Mr. King out oi Prince once beiore?

Now the Liberals are blaming the "Conservative candidates be- cause their meetings have been a failure. Wouldn't it beymore reas- onable and nearer the truth to lay the blame where it rightly belongs?

‘In King's County the Liberal candidate claims he has visited every elector and can call him or her by christian name. Why then, bother to call upon his political friends to vouch for him on the platform?

It is in Airlcalthat white people are most apprehensive of racial strife should Italy attack Ethio- pia. There they know. what an up- rising among the natives would mean. This iear was vividly ex- pressed beiore the League of Na- tions last week by Mr. Charles te Water, South African delegate and the Union's High C issloner in London, who sa-ld- that in the event oi war the blacks "will arise and overthrow." Recent ofiicial figures show that in Rhodesia there are more than a million natives; with 100,000 children at school, and but 50,000 whites. These hundred thous- and native children‘ "are bring edu- cated, and never again will be sat- isfied with kraal liie. Their elders also have a smattering oteduca- tion, and are becoming more as- sertlve regarding their rights and their status in the country. That. is one angle to the peril whites associate with war between Italy and the dark trlbesmen oi Ethio- pia. Consider again the condition in Rhodesia, as an example-m re than a. million blacks to 50. whites. '

I look upon. a night sky, Picked with brilliant stars and wonder at them anew each time, and yet there is not a single star in that vast ex- panse oi beauty and mystery so insignificant as one~human being! In us all are all the stars, all the wonders, all the mysteries, all the unsolved riddles oi the Universe. We are multiple people. The fact should spur us-on. Life itseli is significant. A rcaily notable task is handed to us when we are given liie. The supreme task for us,‘how- ever, lies in our ability to handle it alright, and with courage. Our lives keep multiplying for us, increasingly as we give to others, as we con- tribute to their happines, and as we live the multitudes that are oi us so much apart.

The Ethiopian Emperor astuteiy chose the Fourth oiQ-lilly to make his appeal to Washington, invok- ing the Kellogg-Briand Pact, un- der which Italy pledged herself to ‘ renounce war as an initrument oi‘ national policy. There are 15,000,000 people of Ethiopian descent in the United states. and they make the Washington Government's position a difllcult one. -

Often the "asides" oi the actor reveal his power and his character as nothing else does upon the stage. This is as true in life. We are known, judged, and loved, per- haps more for our asides than for anything prominent and disting- uished. Oiten a man is much great- er in his home than he ever was upon the broad stage of life's iull activities. Great as‘ is Howell's written account oi Dr. Johnson, perhaps the greatest sides to Bos- well's hero could never be written. There were little asides that per- haps revealed him in richer mess- ure than anything that Boswell translated to paper. Credit‘ is all too oiten shoved aside. Who ever has been able to adequatelytrons- late a. tear, a smile, or even a sigh? A man's asides are often the dis- tinguishing trait that markhlm as an entity oi worth or power.

There are a number oi iorms oi treatment-use oi vaccines, cutting down on starch foods-but he wants something to allay the pain and prevent the joints irom becoming permanently stiii.

What is known as “physics? treatment is considered the most eflective method to prevent stiff joints and restore the patient to an active life.

Dr. L. C. R. L'Estrange Orme in Medical Press outlines this physical treatment as iollowsz~

i. Maintaining and increasing the amount oi movement of joints and preventing them irom becom- ing stiii or nxedby massage.

2. Improving thg circulation around the Joint by some -iorm oi heat-cabinet baths, hot towels, var- ious iorms oi electric heat.

. 3. Improving the general circula- tion oi’ the body and improving the skin action by stimulantbaths. '

4. Correcting any deformity and

5.‘ Improving the general health by a suitable diet and by encourag- ing as much exerciseas is possible.

Dr. It. Kovacs, New York. in Medical Journal and Record states that physical measures are an in- valuable aid in the constitutional treatment of chronic arthritis (rhe- matism) and are the mainstay of treatment ior reliei oi pain and stiffness. There is rarely a patient in whom properly selected and. ap- plied meesures would not bring some immediate reliefenabling him to carry on much easier with whatever other iorm of treatment is required. .

.There is substance in the old sayiniw-"Ftcpeat a lie oiten enough and in time you will believe -it your- saii." It. is a-first article 0i Liberal faith. Examples are on every hand.

In the lart iive years no marlin public liie has been so shamefully misrepresented as Hon. Premier Bennett. He was too busily engag- ed in grappling with the problems oi government to stoop to the low- er game cg politics. Even were he soinclined, if he attempted‘ to answer all the falsehoods canvass- edsgsinst him, he ‘wouldn't have s moment to spare ior anything else.

. It is doubtful ii he will even now wastetime in refutation, rather pre- ierring to let the evidences oi events develop the scaffold for the finale oithose disciples oi Annanlas. Yet

slanders should be referred _back for proof.

One has been so deliberate, and so frequent in repetition, that every person has heard .- read it, and the originator oi the falsehood now probably believes it himself. It ap- pears in the Patriot (10th) probab- ly for the iive hundreth time as follows: "I, promise to end unem. nlcvment." Equally as oiten it has appeared with this addition: "Or perish in the attempt."

Spanish War Pension = Increases .--—-

( ‘ l Gasetac) m y One striking contradic on D0 ' itics is that the very administra- tlom which start on" s note 0i 09- oiwmy lb expenditure quite 01M end up with an orsv o! snendlnr- They curtail stsiis and applwfll“ tions and then turn to the other extreme. President Roosevelt, when he assumed oiiice, made inroads into the_ civil service personnel, and now there are more Govornment employee; than ever beiore. Some wagaincomlnenting upon this state oi aiiairs, remark that the capital o1 the nation is the only part oi it that has grown in population. In i933 an Economy Act was passed, which affected war pensioners, and now increased compensation cheq- ues are being sent out to about 210,000 Spanish-American war vet- erans and their dependants as the result oi Congressional action in restoring these claimants to the benefits they enjoyed previous to the passage of the said Economy Act. At the same time. 15,000 other beneficiaries dropped by the act will be restored to previous allowances as fast as the Veterans‘ Adminis- tration can enalnine their claims. All oi which may cause cynics to WQXidQf if next, year's elections have anything to do with the case. The war between the United States and Spain ended more than 35 years ago, yet the pensioners on the roll on June 30. i934. numbered 165,231 soldiers and nurses and 35.- 022 widows, etc. The Civil War end- ed 70 years ago, yet last year there were 18,455 soldiers and nurses re- ceiving pensions and 112,577 wid- ows. etc, In explanation of the lat- ter fact, it may be pointed out that a young woman may marry an octo- genarian veteran and then come into a pension when he dies. De- spite the thinning oi the ranks as the years pass, it is probable that a full century after the closing bat- tle oi the war to irce the slaves there will be persons receiving pen- sions. As ior the W:rld War, the United States pension iigures last year were: Soldiers, service con- nected, 332,210; non-ervice con- nected, 29.903; widows. etc.. 99,229; and in addition some disability al- lowances. The pension expenditure in i934 in connection with the Spanish-American War was $55,514,- lll: for the Civil War, $69 814,728. and for the World War. 3154914323, and all other wars, Indian. etc., $11,750,428. The grand total is im- posing. and is prooi that the cast or war just begins with the send- ing of the first battalions to the front. The American people, like the Canadians, are generous with their war veterans. although some oi the pensioners may not think so, especially in times like the pres- ent. The laiest concession to the returned men oi the Spanish-Am- erican War may give the World War veterans renewed hope of the bonus payment that has been hang- ing fire for some time.
