DIARKETS AT HOME

In a recently published report of ‘p, survey of the marketing cf Cana- dian fish and fish products, con- ducted under instructions from the Domulion Government, two state- ments stand out significantly. The first is that Canada has a per capta fsh production of 120 pounds.

and a per caplta fish consumption or 20.7 as against the per capita fish consumption in Great Brltafn of 40 pounds, and in Norway of 70 pounds. The second statement is that "fish advertising in Canada at the present time is neglgble, and consists almost entirely of price

There is every reason to suppose that a much larger pro- portion of our fish products would be consumed at home if they were advertised in the same manner as other‘ commodities. This is an age of advertising. and no industry can neglect this method of appealing to the public and hope for satisfac- tory results. An increase in Canada to the per canita fish consumption of Norway, or even of Great Brit- ain. would give a great stimulus to the fisheries industry at the present time.

. i In a letter to the common pleas judges of Ohio, Chief Justice Mar- shall of Ohio, recently wrote: "It ‘ be ' that our Gov- ernment, through govemorl. may- ors. sheriffs and policemen, has of- fered terms to the underworld. The courts alone have stood finn against it." As the Buffalo Courier says: "That is a pretty serious indictment of Government from one so high in authority as the Chief Justice of Ohio. If the courts alone have stood against the underworld. ' where is society to look for protection from the underworld? Particularly, where is it to look for protection from the gangsters who are now exploiting kidnapping? The courts can serve only if the kidnappers are brought before them. And this the author- ities so far at least seem unable to do."

There are many difficulties, lays the Toronto Times, in the way of setting up permanent machinery of the kind desired by the 'I‘rades Un- ion Congreas and the Federation of British Industries. But they are difliculties which must be overcome. for without a permanent clearing house of information and suggestion co-operation can be only fitful, a thing of shreds and patches. In 1930 one unnecessary difllculty was caused by the name given in the joint memorandum to the suggested permanent link b ‘ successive Conferences. 'I‘he world Common- wealth Economic Secretariat con- jured up visions in some minds of a bureaucratic body seated in Whitehall, subservient to the Bri- tish Treasury, constantly extending its authority, dictating policy to the Dominion Governments, and gradu- ally encroaching on the fiscal and economic rights which every Domin- ion regards as sacrosanct. ‘Ibis misunderstanding was fatal to the suggestion two years ago and it must be dissipated before July if f anything is to come of the scheme.

'- It is no longer a question whether

‘relief work or “direct relief" is the best method of treating our unem- ployed. It is only a question of which we can aflord. We can only afford the cheapest. This, happily, seems to have been the conclusion of the interprovincial conference in Ottawa. Relief works are to be brought to an end as soon as puss- lble, and the various Governments will combine in methods of direct relief. Being a civilized and Christ- ian nation, we cannot think of even trying to escape the obligation to feed the hungry and clothe the naked. The unfortunate victims oi the depression who are in our midst must be cared for-and cared for kindly, considerately and humanely. ' So long as we have a loaf, We must

share it with those who have none.

But we can no longer afford. ideal-

istic and costly methods of admin-

istering relief. It must be direct- from the giving hand to the hungry mouth.

Little more than three months are left before the Hoover moratorium expires, says the London Daily Her- ald, less than nine months before payments to the United States must be . sumed. Within that space a

‘ must be found, or there will be gigantic defaults that will shake the credit structure of the world. '

The present difficulties have caused us all to take stock of the position and to cast about for a way out of them. We have all taken too narrow a view of our special inter- ests, and we have all much to gain in the long run by (so-operating more liberally with one another. The Conference is an opportunity to discover ways and means by which each part of the Empire can pro- mote the prosperity of the whole, to stop the separatist drift, and to set the course towards a new unity bas- ed on free co-operation.

The most important thing for a young nation to build up is char- acter, says J. L. Ganvin. A sound nation is one for which no moral allowances require to be made. It has been the hope of Ireland's friends to see her attain that posi- tion-as it has been the ambition of all decent elements in herself. Mr. de Valerab intimation repudi- ate; that fair prospect: it warns all : who have dealings with her that a‘ "gentleman's agreement" is not within her competence. We must1 hope that, even at the eleventh hour, we may be saved from con- ‘ ‘ "no the ---‘- of such a situation-that the idealism: of a fine race will not be seen pouring itself down a sink of folly and fraud.

What are the facts in the present case? The Chinese were using against Japan the methods they had fonnerly used against England. Chinese pickets were raiding shops and seizing goods; beating the mer- chants. and looting the merchandise. When the offenders were brought before the Chinese courts they were feted as patriots instead of being condemned as robbers. Moreover.

Dre. L. J. Milner and C. B. Iow- endorf report a series of over 2,000 eases of backache, and of this num- ber i350 cases were due to arthritis (inflammation in the joints of the back bone and hip caused by infes- tion in the system); 525 cases were due to sprains in the joint between the last bone of the spinal column and the hip bone. and between the bones of the hip itself; 100 cases were due to actual strain of the muscles in the lower back.

This shows that these surgeons found that 1 in every 3 cases of low back pain was due to sprain or in- jury and not to infection in the

Of course it is possible to have a sprain and infection follow. and likewise to have infection or arthri- tis of joint and then have the joint undergo a sprain.

What about treatment?

If the condition has come about gradually, there is considerable "ache" even when the patient is at rest, and no history [of an injury, it would be wise to have the patient thoroughly overhauled by a physi- clan and dentist and try to locate the source of infection.

R- times a protruding abdomen due to overweight is the cause of backache. An abdominal belt and reducing the weight is the treat- merit needed. ~

Where the backache is due to sev- ere injury, rest on a stiff bed is the first thought, supporting the back with adhesive tape.

After a week or two in bed, a steel and leather brace must be worn. The brace should be remov- ed once or twice a day, and heat applied in various forme.

A little later, massage of the tensed muscles should be given.
