‘U. S. PROPAGANDA

The many channels through which American propaganda is seeping into this country has frequently been the subject of protest in the Canadian

I press. Several days ago The Guard- ian quoted from an article in Mac- Lean's Magazine calling attention to the use in Canadian public schools of West's "Modern Progress,” and Myers‘ "General History." These textbooks, which purport to give authoritative summaries of the events of the Great War, are ob-

. ,' .. ' _, viously written with the purpose of

glorifying the part played by the

United States while minimizing or

W ignoring the efforts of the British forces. Canada's part in the great struggle is disposed of in a few curt lines. while pages are devoted to the achievements of American troops. It is encouraging to note that. the war veterans of Windsor, Ontario, have taken the matter up and have pgsseda strong resolution calling for an investigation into the use in Can- adian schools of history text books, written and published in other countries. _

Back of all the crusading efforts of American propagandists is the ﬁxed

. idea in the superiority of everythlnﬂ in their own country. They are, they

' believe, the greatest nation on earth; tho wealthiest, the most efficient. the most progressive, the most heroic. and especially the most moral. "We are the most moral race in the world," wrote an American publicist ironically. "There is riot another that we"do not look down upim in W" dgpgflmgnt} our confessed aim and dggtlny as a nation is to inoculate

' them‘ with our incomparable recti- tude. Our function, we choose to be-

“m, 1, w teach and inspire the

world. We are wrong. Our function is m amuse the world. We are "it Bry- an, the Henry Ford, the Billy 5W1‘ day, among the nations." .

when he said frankly:

“More than 9,000 human beings are lawlessly killed in the United States each year. Little more than half as many arrests follow. Less than one-sixth of these slay- ers are convicted, and but a scan- dalously small percentage are ade- quately punished. Twenty times times as many people in proportion to population are lawiessly killed in the United States as in Great Britain. In many of our great cities murder can apparently be committed with impunity.

"At least ﬁfty times as many robberies in proportion to popula- tion are committed in the United States as in the United Kingdom. and three times as many burglaries.

"Even in such premeditated crimes as embezzlement and forg- ery our record stands no compari- son with other stable nations. No part of the country, rural or ur- ban, is immune. Life and proper- ty are relatively more unsafe than in any other civilized country in tho world."

This from the newly elected head of the State must carry weight even with those unthinking people who consider that American civilization is the supreme ideal for attainment. It is not for Canada to foflow the bad example of the United States in lawlessness and lack of law enforce- ment. It is the duty of our Courts, which should be upheld on all sides, to deal with law breakers in a man- ner which will make law respected; and in this connection it is satisfac- tory to ﬁnd the Supreme Court of this Province effectively dealing with wanton lawbreakers.

THE} BOY SCOUT MOVEMENT.‘

In the twenty-one years since the Boy Scout movement was initiated, it has grown to a world wide organi- zation with a membership of about 2,000,000. This is a remarkable acchievement. The fraternity from its inception has been entirely non-military, non-political, non- class and non-denominational. Its ideal of training a‘ the development of body, mind and spir- it through methods which appeal to the boy and encourage his self-edu- cation. The organization's i founder, Sir Robert Baden-Powell, has lived to see a happy fulfilment of his ex- pressed hope that the Boy Scout movement might receive a. growing measure of popular sympathy and support so that it would inﬂuence a substantial proportion of the youth of every country.

The seed of the movement was sown on Brownies Island, off the coast of Dorset, England, where was held the ﬁrst experimental Scout Camp, composed of few more than a. score of boys from public, secon- dary and elementary schools. The celebrations which are to be held this year to mark the movement's coming of age will afford opportunity for a Just appreciation of the extent to which the inﬂuence of this rc- markabie organization has spread‘. On the 31st inst. the Duke of Corn- naught will open a great internation- al Jamboree of the. Boy Scouts As- sociation at Birkenhead, England. Special services will be attend-ed by the Archbishop of Canterbury and Cardinal Bournc. 0n August lst, the Prince of Wales. as the King's re- presentatlve, will go into camp, for two days with 60,000 Scouts drawn from every part of Great Britain and from Canada andtwcnty-four diﬂerent parts of this Empin, as well as from forty-one other nations of the world. including those as far distant as New Zealand, Japan, Per- sia, Tanganyika. Rhodesia, British Guiana, Gambia. the Gold Cont, Malaya, St. Helena and Sierra necae.

Notes By The Way

A preference to British goods in the Canadian market was given in the, Fielding tsriﬂ of i897. It has since been increased and extended by making it applicable to many other British Dominions which were will- ing to make like concessions in favor of Canada. Successive party Govern- ments in the Dominion have endors- ed and continued the general pol- icy of preferential trade within the Empire, notwithstanding the import- ant fsct that the long-continued policy of free trade in Great Britain has prevented the Mother Country from extending any corresponding advantage to Canadian goods in the British market.

There can be no doubt that the settled policy of the Washington Government has been and is to shut out Canadian goods and products in every case, except where such goods are absolutely necessary to supply their own needs. A succession of US. tariffs, each higher than the last, have demonstrated the fact.

What shall Canada do in meet the emergency? The King Government has given no answer in the question beyond stating that at some future and indeﬁnite date action of some sort will be taken, and in the mean- time the question will be considered, all of which is vague and unsatisfac- tory. r

Hon. R. B. Bennett has been much

more deﬁnits in his statements and suggestions. Realizing that the Can- adian people are anxious over the tense situation, and the more anxious because the Government has been so silent in regard to its intentions, he has discussed the question in a ser- ies of very large public meetings throughout Ontario. The fact is that the people are looking to him for light. and he is informing them of his own views and the views of the great party which he leads on the matter in question. It seems quite apparent that the Government does not know its own mind, or has a. divided mind as to the course it shall pursue. It has now the advantage of knowing the de- clared views and policy of its chief opponent in Canadian affairs, and can repeat to its former allies at Washington the story of its contin- ued pro-American attitude as a plea for better terms, but whether that will soften the stony heart of the Re- publican party is open to doubt. Any- thlll! ssined by such s plea would be a loss in the end.

.In an inspiring address at a ban- quet given in his honor at Saint John on last Saturday evening. Sir Henry Thornton stressed the great importance of the Maritime Provinc- es to the Dominion. "It is founded," he said, "upon s simple and incon- trovertible theory-the ports of these Provinces provide the only outlets to the Atlantic during the winter months. Therefore it is essential to the Dominion of Canada that the re- lations between the Maritime Pro- vinces and the rest of Canada must be maintained. An obligation rests "Don the other psrt of Canada to see that the Maritime Provinces de- velop and grow and receive their rightful economic greatness."

‘These words furnish a timely re- minder m the sister provinces of the mainland of the incontrovertible facts so long forgotten, but now again brought tn the front. Apart from our open ports the Marltimes have done much and contributed greatly to the upbuilding of the prosperous Dominion of today.

In proportion to the limited num- ber of their people these-Provinces by the sea have supplied to the Do- minion more than their full share of eminent statesmen, and they have enriched the Judiciary, the learned professions, and the mental outfit of other pro- vinces and cities far beyond what they have received in return.

Ia the Brlﬂsh Empire orders of no- bility and knighthood conferred by the sovereign as the fountain of honor, have been c mon during past ages. Some public men.‘ Mr. Gladstone for instance, declined to accept such titular distinctions, as didilldward Blake, Aiexande Mac- lienaio. W. B. Fielding and others in Canada. and as they had a right to d0 l! they chose. Many Canadians IWWM knighthood in the early de- esdss of the Dominica and it seems a mistake to have shut. trio door Illinst titles m Canada.

Bp Iauggl. Barton, M.D. , DEEP BREATHING LOWIRS nmu BLOOD PRESSURE

I saw two army sergeants put their respective squads through 50mg phy- sical training.

When they came to the breathing exercise part of the work, one serg- eant _had the men take in long deep breaths as they raised the arms from sides to an overhead position. The men meanwhile making considerable noise as they drew the air into the lungs and blew it out 'again.

Just how deeply they did breath was known only to the mcri themselves.

The other sergeant directed his squad to run twice around two large tents at a little distance from the parade grounds. When they returned there wasn't any question about the deepness of their breathing; every man had done so much work that he had to breathe deeply.

Now you ask "Isn't deep breathing good for you, even if you Just take long breaths without running or other exercise?"

Yes.

Research men have been able to show that normally about one ﬁfth of the blood is in the lungs all the time but that if deep breaths are taken this amount can be greatly increased.

Now if you can get an increased amount of blood into your lungs, and keep it there for a little longer period than usual. it is bound to have a most beneﬁcial effect upon the whole sys- tem. _ ‘

And one of the practical ways of using this knowledge is in lowering the blood pressure in cases of high blood pressure.

Persons with small lung capacity, or those suffering from gas pressure in stomach and intestine which pre- vents the ﬁoor of the chest from coming down as low as it should. usually have high blood pressure.

If deep breathing exercises are taken, or if the intestinal condition is corrected so that there is no gas pressure, the blood pressure comes down many points.

So much more blood is able to re- main in the lungs at one time that it, relieves the rest of the system of Just that mucli and thereby lessem the

pressure,

But even if you haven't high blood pressure a few deep breaths two or three times a day will your blood.

THERE BE NONE OF BEAUTYS DAUGHTERS

There bs none of Beauty's daughter! With a magic like to thee;

And like sweet music on the waters Is thy sweet voice to me:

When. as if its sound were causing

The charm-ed ocean's pausing,

The waves lie still and gleaming.

And the lulled winds seem dreaming:

And the midnight moon is weaving Her bright chain o'er the deep;

Whose breast is gently heaving, As an infant's asleep:

So the spirit bows before thee,

To listen and adore thee;

with a full but soft emotion,

Like the swell of Summer's ocean,

THE GOVERNOBSHIP

Sir,-—As the term of office as Governor of the I-lon. F. R. I-Ieartz will soon expire, I think it would be the best thing the people of the Pro- vincc ever did to send a. Pembn- asking for another term for His Hon- or. Now, Sir, I have known every Governor since Confederation and some before, and I may~ say without any hesitation that he has ﬁlled the position away ahead of any previous Governor.

I may say that he has done more than any person to put this Island on the map by his kindness to all the people that had anything to do with him.

sir, the many Conventions he has entertained from hom-a and abroad and the pleasant time he has given them have never been equalled. Just think of the time and attention he gave to entertain the members of in- stitutes, forelgn tourists and all such visitors, and did so superbly.

Now there are a lot of aspirants for the office and some of them one no good to ﬁll such a position, Just such a. lot as we have been having in the past. Now, that won't do any longer. Let the people ask for an- other term for our present Govenor, for we are proud of him and his good lady and desire to have them con- tinue in their high office.

DETAILS 0F DROWN- ING ACCIDENT

Sin-As the account which ap. peared in to-davs paper of the drown- ing . accident which took plgcg. at Campbell's Mills on Saturday 6th, was rather misleading. I shall give the facts as I know them. At about 4.30 p. m. I saw two men drive into the yard, and put their horse in the stable, I took one to be Ernest Mat- thews, the other I did not know as I was some distance away working in the saw-mill. I did not see them tak- ing the boat nor notice them fishing U11 about 200 yards from ihe dam, and had had, no conversation, what- ever, with either of them. Matthews was thenprowing the boat and i» other man was standing in th:

Some time after a. boy svh: fishing at the dam, came A and told me that the men ivsr. ing for help. I rushed to tlie s - 4.... saw the two men still in Li: boa. which was full of water, I called to them to keep steady and cease strug- gling as the boat would keep afloat though full, and that help was com- ing; but in their excitement they bothV-ushed to the stern of the boat capsising it immediately, One man rose to the surface, but sank instant- ly, whilg the other man made a futile attempt to swim but soon disappear- ed. In answer lo the shouts for help a number of men, who were working on a. nearby barn, came running to the rescue bringing plank from the saw-mill, as they passed by. In about five minutes we constructed a raft on which Mr. Walter Reid was push- ed out to the boat. in order to find out whether anything could be seen of the men coming to the surface. But as there was no sign of them, he with the aid of a rope thrown to him, pulled the boat ashore, where it was uprlghted and searching op- erations started at once. Owing to thc\boat having drilled some dist- ance with the current, it was difficult to find the exact location where the men had gone down, In order to hasien the work, the gates were lifted, thus lowering the uqter in the pond. In tho meantime the‘ other boat which had gone adrift the previous day, had been secured and boarded by Messers C. E. Armstrong and Harold Harring- ton who continued the search; later assisted by Mr. H. R, Vessey of Char- lcttetown. Mr. Harold Dlckieson, who had swam out. to aid in the search located ths body of Mr. Matthews, which was raised to ihe surface by the occupants of tho boats, and brought to shore‘ by Mr, Joseph Reid. m loss than tcn minutes the body of Mr. Watts was also discovered and brought ashore. Other details of the accident have been fully dealt with in the previous account. ~ In regard to the boat in which the men were fishing, it was a strongly built punt, llfect long by 3 1-2 feet at stern, with a flat bottom and con- sidered perfectly safe if handled corroctly.

My opinion as to the cause of tic boat filling with water, is that the WWII weight of the men being too near the bow caused it to dip.

Yourfreferenca to Malpequo Bay as being a great producer of oysters in the past is correct; but your in- formation as to oyster farms being established in or about the Bay is ndt. A brief glance at the history of oyster ﬁshing in Malpequo Bay will be necessary to understand the sit- 'uation as it exists today.

The writer can Just remember the time when the oyster season op- ened on September ﬁrst. Oysters were at that time very plentiful and many ﬁshermen would ﬁsh from three to ﬁve barrels a day with tongs —not drags. (It was many years later that drags were used). It was found that the oysters going on the market as early as the date men- tionedpwould accumulate in the cen- tres such as Quebec and Montreal and would spoil with the heat before they could be disposed of. Also, ow- ing to the long days and warm wea- ther they would bo ﬁshed in larger quantities than could be absorbed even at a low price by the markets.

Very many ixirrels uiere sold at auction on arrival at these centres. for less even than the freight. at the same time it was being found that the catches by the ﬁshermen were becoming smaller. Something had to be done, and accordingly the season was shortened. The season was then set back to September 15th. That, I believe, was somewhere ‘in the Eighties, I cannot give the exact date.

A few more years passed and the output of oysters from Malpeque as
