Those Liberal Promises

One of tl1e pledges in the official Liberal election platform, 1935, was to “abolish" the ex- change and duntping duties imposed by the Bennett Government, which were described as “uuwarrutttcd extra taxes", ltaving the effect “of strangling trade, exploiting the consumers and rubbing thc railways of business." .\lr. Blac- kenzie King subsequently boasted in Parliament that he had implemented this pledge.

.\'0w we find ottr local contemporary claim- ing. quite lteatcdly‘, that not only was the dump- ing duty on New Zcaland butter not abolished, but that “there is no intention of the Govern- mt-ttt taking any such course."

lt admits that the dump was “removed” by ordcr-in-council 011 shipments up to 35,000 boxes, but "the (lovcrnnicnt 0011111 not repeal the dump- ing clauses of the treaty except by an amend- ment passed by Parliament and no such amend- ment was passed or even proposed."

So the King Govcrntttent took no steps to "lil-crzttc cxtcruztl trade" in that direction. Prob- ably 11 was just as well. .

The gist of our contemporary-E argument is

>--111ctl1iug, barrow-111; ‘

that the situation of ottr (lztiryttten would be 11inch worse today had the Liberal platform been tutpictitcittcd.

13111, the action taken with regard to ship- np-uts up to 55.000 boxes was also in violation or the Liberal platform. For 1n attother section the ptt-rlqe was given "to end thc tnaking and 1111-1111;: o1 tariffs by executive action."

Ql-allstlcs on the production and sale of trailers inspire the glam- orous plcture of a hundred thou- sand well-to-do families roaming in care-free, nomadic fashion up and down the lattd, summcring in Michigan, wintering in Florida, and with leisurely appreciation taking in 1111 the sights between“ The fact of the matter is tltat. by far the greater portion of trail- ers are sold not to the well-to-do for care-free touring. but to the comparatively poor for decidedly care-ridden, emergency dwelling.

Despite our knowledge of pre-

by removing infection from teeth, tonsils, sinuses, gall bladder, to- gether with proptr rest, diet. and exercise, there are many cases which become chronic before tn- fectfon has besn removed. The infection 1n joints has caused changes that often cannot: be re- paired or corrected and the pati- ent. is afflicted with stifrness. pain, and some degree of deform- l V.

'In speaking of these cases of chronic arthritis, Dr. bcrt T. Phillips, Boston, in the New Elng-

laitd Journal of Medicine. tells of 1l1e help that. can be given by ‘physical’ medicine or treatment- rest. exercise, massage, and elec- tricity.

Dr. Phillips points out that rest is needed by chronic arthvi lcs be- cause of the long drain on their nervous and physical energy caused by the infection. The sug‘- gcstion is an hour's rest after meals. ‘Dwo positions are taken. For the first thirty minutes the patient; lies on his back. stretched well out, a lilow under lower back and the nees but: not under the head. For the second thirty minutes he turns face down, sup- ported by a pillow placed crash-- wise under his abdomen In regard to exercise, arthrltics must: not. allow Joints remain in a bent: position. No matter what: the degree of arthritis, the patient can carry out some exercise-lying, standing, sitting, walking-to move his joints and strengthen his muscles.

In regard to heat: Dr. Phillipa suggests the use of hot water ap- plications by means of some wooll- en material covered with a towel or blanket to hold in the heat.

The message is done by the use

tlon toward the heart: as it, is the return circulation of the blood that. needs help. If pain is present, massage should be gentle. Heat should be applied before or during the massage. Many physicians ad- vise applicatlon of heat, then mas- sage, and then more heat following the massage.

In regard to electrlcltylt; ls un- fortunate that physfclans do not, give more attention to acquiring the knmvledge of the proper methods of using electricity in the treatment of chronic arthritis as it. gives excellent results in skillful hands. When proper treat- ment by electr ity is not available. the use of t e other ‘physical’ forms of treatmenwrest, heat, ex- erclse. and massage — faithfully carried out; will give satisfactory results.
