In other words, Universities, Press and Radio are to be subject to the King Government political st- niosphere and influence through these combina- tion appointments. It is not contended that the appointees are not competent to discharge the duties of their bureaucratic jobs, time will tell that, but it does appear both cynical on the part of the Prime Minister, and inimical to the best interests of our democratic way of life for him brazenly to seek to utilize the services of the Universities, Press and Radio to further and safeguard the interest, not of the country, but of the Liberal Party now in the throes of

dissolution through his own mistaken and michievous policy for the past twenty years in Quebec.

Tuberculin Surveys

Al intimated at s recent meeting sponsored by the Tuberculosis League, plans are under way for a. mass survey of school children for tuberculosis. As explained by Dr. Croclman, superintendent of the Provincial Sanatorium, for the past five years the Department of Health has conducted these surveys in various schools throughout the Province, Prince Street School being the first to have the survey undertaken. Now, st the beginning of another five-year period, the experience gained has improved the method of operation as well as benefited the community and individuals. The objective is to examine from 90 to I00 per cent of all chil- dren and teachers. Slips for each child are sent home to the parents to fill in, consenting to al- low a tuberculin skin "patch" test to be made. In the event of a. positive resction—which does not necessarily mean that the child has tuber- eulosis-the parent further agrees to have the child X-rayed at a. nominal cost of twenty-five cents. tlt is hoped that the parents will co- operate in‘ hlving their children examined, and themselves, in such cases u are indicated.

Dr. Creelman suggests as “a nice objective for some ambitious organization to set for it- self" the sponsoring of a mass X-ray survey for the whole city of Charlottetown. This, he states, ii what the city of Regina, Saskatche- wan, has undertaken. In the meantime, as s lesser ambition and one within the scope of the Province’s case finding organization, are the school surveys for which the fullest co-open- tion is now being sought.

Potato Shortage In Toronto

Toronto experienced an acute potato shortage last week, which is the subject of a. lengthy writeup in the Glob: and Mail, Department stores and chain stores were described u hav- ing barely sufficient to carry their customers over the present week, while small independent grocers were simply out of luck. With lots 0i potatoes in the East, there are, ssys one author- ity quoted "ten customers for every bag arriv- ing in Tprntltn." i

One dealer is quoted as follows: “Don't be- licvc this Wartime Prices and Trade Board bunk of a ceiling of $1.87 per bag. Whether or not it is legal, I nm paying above the ceiling price for potatoes. There are mans whereby the holders can get around this regulation. While I pay $i.87 per 75-pmmd bag for potatoes ship- ped to Toronto from Montreal, I hsvo to pay 2o cents a bag extra foy walled delivery charges."

u is o a When Protestant Episcopal bishops beg to differ publicly, who shall decide? Bishop Wil- liam T. Manning, head of the Protestant Epis- copal diocese of New York has just made public a. letter to the Church press protesting against the “ecclesiastical intrusion" of the Archbishop of Canterbury (William Temple) in the con- troversy now going on in the Episcopal Church in that country over a proposed organic union with the Presbyterian Church. In Church cir- cles it was said it was unprecedented for an Am- erican Episcopal bishop to administer a public rebuke to an archbishop of the Church of Eng- land. The action with which Bishop Manning took issue was the writing of a letter by the Archbishop last October to Bishop Edward L. Parsons, retired, of California, chairman of the Commission of Approaches to Unity of the Epis- copal Church, saying that success of the union movement would be “s very great contribution to the cause we all have at heart." The Arch- bishop gave Bishop Parsons permission to pub- lish his letter, and it was published recently in the Episcopal Church press, together with s statement by Bishop Parsons noting the interest shown b7 Americans in the Archbishop's ut- teruicel.
