If this bc true in normal times what about the lot of First Ministers under existing world conditions?

One thing is certain, 5nd that is that the people of Canada, for whom Premier Bennett has labored eo long and so strenuously. wish him a pleasant working holiday. They hope that he will be able to snatch some rest aboard ship, and that the change of scene will afford him such relaxation that he may return re- freshed for the resumption oi his

IIVOTES BY THE WAY

The thirty-hour week for Labor may or may no; be a good idea, but at least there are pnod ways of working for it. one way would be by lrtument and votes. William Green. President of the American Federation of Labor, suggests a bad way when he declares that Labor should bring it about "by armed force" if need be. The United States is a free country, with adult suffrage. Everybody votes. If a ma- jority of the people want a tlility- hour week, they can get it by their votes. If a majority of the people will not vote that way. why advise the minority to attempt violence? That is an advocacy or bloodshed. to attempt to get what should be attempted and might be got by peaceful means, in a case for wlfch peaceful means are provided.

g Reports at the annual meeting oi the Canadian Boy scouts’ Asso-

ciation, Tuesday, shOW that the Scout number now reaches sixty thousand. A great (and splendid

thing. It means finer boy-s in Cana- da; it means more than that, i! means finer men, as the Scouts grow up. For the Scout scheme is one of helpiullness, observation, discipline, and sclf sacrifice. The Governor General, attending the meeting. and remaiking at it that in the past year in his travels he had seen more Canadian Scouts than any other person. spoke warmly of the fine character of the movement.

"Increase the United States 1'9- gular army." urges General Doug- las MacArthur, Chief oi Staff 8i? Washington. Mllltarism gone mad. The General is determined to pre- serve peace by getting more money to spend to get ready to fight. War is his reason for existence, and he is obsess ’ by his atmosphere. If the United states would join the League of Nations no country would need an army. The United States itself does not need an army

BUTTER AND EGG DIET POI. ULCEB. 0F BTOHACII

i

One oi the commonest a" nts of former years, chronic indigestion- is known now in the majority of cases to be ulcer of the stomach, or of the first inch or two of the small intestine into which the stomach empties its contents.

An ulcer is an ulcer whether it is on the lining of the stomach wall or on the skin, and it will heal if given any kind of a chance.

The outstanding symptom in ulcer of the stomach is a definite pain or uneasiness about one to three hours after every meal.

Where the condition is so severe that there is a closing or partial closing of the entrance from stom- ach to intestine, surgery is neces- sary.

Fortunately, the majority of cases can be healed with just a little reg- ular attention to the food eaten.

What is known as the butter and egg diet is now finding favor with some physicians. A European phy- sician reports that during the past eight years he has observed 300 cas- es with stomach and intestinal ulc- crs, ‘and has treated 155 of those with the more severe and complic- ated ulcers; using the butter and egg diet.

He divided the treatment into three parts. The first part, which lasted from eight to ten days, con- sisted of a. strict butter and egg- white diet, along with liquids; the diet during the second period (from four to six days after the disappear- ance of the pains) included thick porridge, no salt, and with three ounces oi butter for luncheon and dinner, and two soft boiled eggs for breakfast, and in case of continued pains a glass of egg white for an

Thirteen Years After

(Toronto Globe)

There is some consolation, at least in the promise ofMr. .1. S. Woods- worth, M. P., that the revolution he is now working on will be blood- less. It will differ from the revol- ution of i919 in Winnipeg, in which he, _Rev. Dr. Salem Bland, Mr. A. A. Pfcaps and others were leadhg fig- ures. It should, since the passing of thirteen years usually makes men older and wiser. Still, the insistence that there must be a revolution be- SPBRK! little for a gain in wisdom. When revolution is proclaimed as in- cvitable, even the "menial revolu- ton" of Miss Agnes Mbcphail, as a beginning, whether there is blood- shed or not depends upon the kind and amount of energy devoted to propaganda, as history has shown. The obvious conclusion from the campaign in behalf of Mr. Woods-

this for myself, that I hope one of these loans, if we make it, will ne-

ver be paid and thlt we will never ask that it be paid. We owe more to the Republic of Iii-once for what ithesdcnc foruathan wean ever- repey. I never want to" ace this Government ask France to return the loan we may make to her." Senator Cummins. "I am perfect- ly willing to give go any of the allied nations the money which they need to carry on our war, for it is now our war. I would give it justasfreelyasfwouldvote to equip our army or to maintain our own navy." Congressman Mann: “I think it is our highest duty in the making of war to give aid to those who are fighting the enemy against whom we have desired war."

congressman rlordney: “Their (the advances) only purpose is to aid them in the beet way possible to fight our batiles across the sea. without calling upon our men to go there."

Congressman Mondell: "We can (by the advances) effectively and in the immediate future arm, strengthen and support those who are, since the declaration of war. fighting our bwtitles."

ther our interests primarily in this war, and from the moment when the Congress of the United States declared that a state of war existed between this country and Germany. every blow struck at Germany by any of her enemies was struck also in our interest."

Congressman Madden: "We are starting out to win a. victory, as I understand it, to maintain Ameri- can rights; and if we can maln- taln American rights by furnish- lng money to somebody willing to fight our battles until we are pre- pared to fight those battles for ourselves, we ought to do it."

Some twp months later, at 61118817. Mr. Woodsworth declared: "I am not worrying as to whether they keep me in the pententlary or not- we'll win anyway. I don't think that the workers of this country will lei- us stay in anyway." Unfortunately for the revolution, as Mr. Heaps said earlier in the year in Montreal: “We were having beautiful weather and, we cvere having a. beautiful strike, when the cltzens butted in- to the game and began to attempt to assert their auhoriy."

This all happened at a. time when labor. so called, was depressed com~ pared with previous months, and when the One Big Union was out to "subdue the mad dogs of capl- talism and open the gates of free- dom?’ when the theory was" as Rev. William. Ivens was reported to have told a. Winnipeg labor meetiflf. l4‘ dressed by hmself and Rev. Dr. Bland: "All you have to do is to walk intp any industry, tell the own- er you are going to take ‘it 0W1‘. and it is clone." -

The farmers were sadly neglected at this time. The fact is that they were not badly on’. Conditions were not favorable to make them good subjects for exploitation. Things are different today. The farmers are now being asked to join in subdulng the mad dogs of capitalism, Messrs Woodsworth, Bland and Heaps fail- ed to attain their objective thirteen years ego by exploiting the unmet among urban workers.
