BRITA IIWS IVA RNING

A section of the Labor Olbbbbl-

tion in the British House of Com- mons made an angry demonstration when Premier MacDonald formally introduced s. measure to authorise certain reprisals against the soviet Government in sequence to the rec- ent arrest of s. British ehsinttm in Moscow. Notwithstanding this demonstration there can be liiilé doubt but that public. opinion will endorse the action which the Mac- Donald Government contemplates taking. At the time of the arrest of these British subjects, iviio_\ were working for the highly reputable Metropolitan-Vicious firm of en- gineers, no specific chiirBP- W; made against them. Afterwards, an accusation of organizing or encour- aging sabotage in the electrical industry in which they were engaged was trumped-up against them, an accusation which is manifestly ridiculous in the light cf known facts. Then, notwithstanding posted omclal requests from Inn- don, the Soviet authorities declined to give any real justification" for proceeding which have all the appearance of being part of a ter- rorist campaign which is being conducted against the whole class of specialists and engineers, evid- critly to divert attention in Russia from the breakdown of the Soviet agricultural policy. Next. warnings that, unless the prisoners were lib- crated, the Moscow arrests might lead to a. rupture on the part of British both of commercial and diplomatic relations with the Soviet Government were unavailing, as was also suspension of the negotiations that had been started for a new

Anglo-Soviet trade greement, to

take the place of the one which

expires on the 17th instant.

The official Soviet attitude seem-

ccl to be, and still seems to be,

that the Britsh engneers under sr-

rcst went to Russia. of their own

free-will: that they thus made

themselves subject to Russian law,

and cannot expect to be treated

any better than Russian subjects

would be treated who, on good

grounds or bad grounds or no

grounds at all, were suspected of

sabotage or of any other anti-revo-

lutionary activity; and that, in any

event, the arrests in question were

Mr. Redmond, vice-president and general merchandise manager of the Saks departmental store in New York is quoted as saying that "the better feeling in evidence has ‘been reflected in a. real demand for ‘luxury merchandise, including such items as diamonds. pearls. fine luggage and other things usually associated with our most prosper- ous times.

"The actual truth," said a rec- ent lecturer, “is that one 0f the things wrong with the world today is that we have had too many business leaders giving directions that they are not competent to give-too many business men try- ing to interfere with government, to the detriment of the public weal.” One of the great problems 0f i068)’ i5 to keep a certain class of business men from barging in on public affairs. Anyone who knows the inside history of the present Ottawa Government is aware that one of the Prime Minister's most successful achievements has been that of successfully withstanding the dictation of so-called capitalists and business msgnates.

People are compla‘ ’ g at a two cent a pound advance in the cost of sugar caused by the Govern- ment's need for additional revenue. Extracts have recently been pub- lished from accounts kept by a general merchant in Thurlou vil- lage, now Belleville, Ont, in 1789,

giving such prices as tea at six shillings, ($1.50) per pound, ma; sugar at two shillings (50 cents)

Der pound, whiskey at five shillings ($1.35) per gallon. The latter quot- ation is mentioned by Way of com- pei-isation for the high prices paid for other commodics. The rate of W895 per day in those pioneer days "-5 50 Cents. If people were Wmpclllcd to pay such prices for tea, sugar and salt now it would be considered a. hardship, notwith- standing the fact that wages are from four to ten times higher. The labor in which the early pioneers were principally employed was cut- ting down the native forest trees, clearing up the land and .building log cabins. It was extremely hard work, and their hours were from dlylisht to dork. The more we consider the benefits conferred on this country by the early pioneers the greater admiration we have for them.

One of the unfortunate things in life is to sec a. growing youngster whose face plainly shows that he has some obstruction ‘in his nose

his mouth. It is having to hold

this and rightly so, but idenoids are more often at fault.

‘fltdenoids are one of the oom- monest conditions found in child-

‘of colds." Dr. Russel L. Cecil, Cor- lneli University, says that they are

probably "Slwnsible for more little ailments in children than any other one disorder. Adenoids which are made of a sort of spongy tissue are located in the back part of the throat a. little higher up than the ‘tonsils. Just what they are doing there or their purpose is not known, 1'9?’ a certain amount of adenoid tissue is normal in childhood.

The cause of adenoids is not de- finitely known. They are most fre- quently found in children living in dump, changeable climates. Some- times they develop after an attack of measles, scarlet fever, or dlpth- ihcria.

While many are of the opinion that adenoids are caused by repeat- Bd CDidS ill U18 head, more are 9f lllfl Opinion that adenoids are themselves the cause of colds. When the adenoids become em larged they obstruct the breathing and this leads ‘to small or “pigeon breast."

“Children with adenoid: are apt i0 be languid or listless and in advanced cases deafness may be quite marked." Thus a; it is found that adelwlds often cause "colds," obstructed breathing, deafness, do. formed chest and other conditions, u" Wl-le lllllle to do is to have them removed.

Dr Cecil says that no other method of removal out by oper- ation is worth considering. The bggfi time for the operation is iri the Spring or early summer months in order that thc_muscuous membrane 0f the throat may have an Qppof- tuility to regain its normal condi- tion during the warm months,

Allril Overture

(Montreal Gazettg)

The Diblfy 0f the earth lies at the root of all the best poetry that has ilassed into literature. And of this there is an abundance. Of Alli-i the Latins said, "onmia aper- it," it opens everything. In April, Chaucer assembles his pilgrims for their merry cavalcade. The Shak- espearean sonnets are broidercd with April motifs. This dancing psaltress of coy mien and tonic zest who shakes out her hair to the winds and giances and laughs a- cross the dangling hauls, puts the Witching spirit of youth in every- thing. Hcr robes rippling to the frolic interplay of light and shade, srnshiric and showers, she trips a. long the pathway of springtime. at the edge of hectorous gusts, and strikes up a rhythmic chant in which beauty and music are per- fectly joined. It is April enchant- ment, freakish, alluring, contagious --the strange and elusive spell that amid all the tangled wilfulucss find impulsive moods "takes as s long lost i-‘ght the feel of May."

Aptly has springtime been called the great, annual miracle of the blossoming of Aaron's rod. At this season of the year we are witness- ing the most beautiful and aston- ishing spectacle that nature ever presents to our gaze, and were it not that familiarity has dulled the edge of our perceptions, this crea- tive urge, this resurgency of herbs and flowers from the clod, this sil- ent and invincible miracle of ser- ene power throbbing in the sap and unclsspng the buds on the botigh.

THE ECONOMIC SITUATION

ferent kinds of machines which are capable of producing many of the necessities, comforts and luxur- ies of life. These machines were the cause of throwing many people out of loyment. Some will say it would be well for to returnto the handcrsft stage of industry. but we cannot go backward: as this would be absolutely foolish and futile. On the other hand ma- chinery is the one hope of the ordinary person being able to se-

‘oure some of the good things that

this world can give us.

We realize that all who work can be supplied with the good thirigsof life on account of our speeded up production through the use of machinery: but since the introduction of machinery we find the purchasing powers oi the or- dinary producers such as, our far- mers, fishermen and laborers, grad- ually declining until today it has reached a. crisis which is shaking our whole social and economic structure.

Our problem boils down to this. The producer must be given full value for the products of his labor,- in order that he may be able to Purchase an amount of goods equal to what he has produced. Other- wise our economic system will be always out of balance.

One of the causes of our econo- mic distress comes on account or bur creed and selfishness. '

The machine age of this century has given a. free rein to the above passions. We have been able to Pwdllbe Zrcat wealth, but instead of this wealth being distributed to the producers it-has flowed into the hands of the few, creating vast fortunes. The owners of these for- tunes are utterly unable to use or absorb the wealth they have accu- mulated, while thousands, who help produce this wealth, are suf- fering for the lack of the bare ne- ccssities of life in the midst of abundance. This wealth was filch- ed "from them in the name of the "God of Profits.”

We have plenty of examples in history of the great, proud nations of the past bringing about their own destruction by allowing the wealth of the nation to be accumu- lflicd by the few. Let us look at the history of the Roman Erropirc. Rome became great because its people thought more of their city than of life or riches. Later Rome's conquests brought great wealth to Rome, and from this time on Rome was controlled by thefew. the rich becoming arrogant and licentious. The poor were put on the dole, and the slaves did the work and produced the wealth.

We can compare the Romans slaves to our machinery, as the slaves took the place of the ordin- ary citizen so the machine has tak- cn the place of our citizens.

The few controlled Rome, its slaves and wealth. ‘The few 0on- trol our country, its machinery and wealth. We are headingtfor the samc ditch as Rome. Can history teach us nothing? Are we going to allow our country to be destroyed when intelligence and courage can Save it and make it a country to love and an example to all man- kind that grced and selfishness can be controlled?

How better can I sum up what I hive been trying to say than in a couple of lines by Goldsmith.

"Ill fares the land, to hastening ills

a prey, Where wealth accumulates and men decay." ' I am. sir, etc. A CANADIAN.
