RENEWED PROSPECTS

The general bocm in word markets is reflected iIl the optimism sxhibitcd by the buying and selling community here. There is a. distinct and assured prosperity outlook. and the prevailing feeling is that not only are ws out oi the dark wood of depression, but are already climbing the heights toward the peak of more permanent, because sound, lucoasg in business and 1n- dustry.

The Dollar Day sales now in pro- gress are an evidence that our merchants are faithfully and enter- prisingly playing their part in speeding up the wheels of industry and production. Everyone has shar- ed in the evils of the dark days now hh/pplly ended. and none more than the-merchantile community which has had untold burdens to carry on its shoulders. But follow- IHE like. lal.....readjustments which the i929 crisis made manda- tory, our merchants have thrown their goods on the bargain count- sr, and are inviting their customers and the puiblk: generally to make their choice while they last. For, be it remembered, these low prices have not coma to stay. With an up- ward trend in costs of production and wholesale prices, there will be a swing once more to rates which will assure reasonable remuneration to the labourers and producer alias, and that. after all, is what the world wants to make everyone averagely haplly and contented.

SPLENDID MEETINGS

The enthusiasm prevailing at the annual meetings this weak of the East and West Prince Conservative Associations, and the confidence ex- pressed at both meetings in the sane leadership shown by both the Fed- eral and Provincial Governments in a time cf unprecedented world dif- ficulty, are significant signs of the times. It is well for public men to be reminded, in such times, that they have behind them the loyal support of their party followers. Both our Federal and Provincial Conservative representatives are for-

leadcrship and those of his succes- sor. The latter, however, is at least gifted with unlimited energy and a native capacity for spectacular bel- iigerency of the rough-and-turnble kind. He is attacking the Henry Government with every weapon thetccmeetohishandsnd IID- Pen-rs to be making his own rules of combat. It is a burlesque per- fonnance which makes little appeal to thoughtful men. but it is noisy and exciting and may be effective among people who find that sort of thing attractive and are willing to be impressed by a loud repetition oi improved and probably uoprovable charges. Mr. Hepburn spoke at Dur- ham last week and declared that there are two main issues, the pro- vincial Hydro, and taxation. Ha de- clared that “if Liberals are return- ed to power we can and will greatly reduce taxation." This has always been a seductive promise and is likely. tc be swallowed now just as readily as ever by gullible listeners whose better judgment, if any. would tell them that under exist- ing conditions it is beyond the power oi the Liberals, or bf anyone else, to "greatly reduce" taxation in Ontario. perhaps to reduce it at all."

CANADA'S TRADE

Evidence accumulates of good re- sults from the Empire trade agree- ments st Ottawa. Canadian exports to Empire countries in May were valued at $21,662,516, an increase of 4i per cent. over May of last year. The annual report cf the Empire Marketing Board shows that imports of Canadian wheat into Great Bri- tain last year amounted to nearly 47 million cwta, six million cwts. more than the previous record of 41 millions in 1928. The Miarketlng Board's report states that this new record is the highest figure ever reached by any country, with the exception of the war years i016 and 1917. when British importatlons from the United states were high- er.

Moreover, in the last few days we mad that more than eighty pg}- oent of the million bushels of mer-

States.

Senator Berah of Idaho ts con- vinced that the increase in grain tradrfbetwecn Britain and other Empire countries to a large extent at the expense of the United Stowe, provides evidence that the British countries are unwilling to engage in world trade upon a fair basis. The Senator, of course, sees only the U. S. losses and fails to direct any et- tention to the cause of those loss- es. If we would. while following the suns line of re ‘ lg, oonsi‘ the fact that Canada's agricultural ex- ports to the United States were out by several thousand per cent with- in a decade, it is possible that the Senator might arrive at a clearer judgment on this question of fair- ness in trade and gain n greater understanding than he now seems to possess of why it was necessa y to call a world conference.

Former King Alfonso has forgiven his son for marrying the daughter of a wealthy Cuban and has restor- ed w him the title oi Count of Cavadongs, which probably will de- light the young man and his bride. Meanwhile, the rebellious Spaniards do not recognize the right of their late monarch to assume his title or to grant others. And that is an im- portant consideration.

Miss Sue White, acting leader of Democratic women in the United States, announces that the goal for i936 will be a woman assistant ‘I00- retary for every one of the Uniicd States Government departments. Miss Bus is within her rights but there are the old-line politicians to consider, and such institutions as Tammany. And there is also the possibility that 1936 may not be a Democratic yeah-Editorial from Middletown Coun. Gazette 1816.

No, the world emerged from other depressions and it will leave this one behind in the same way. The process of improvement is well under way. There is much to be done yet. in the way of international co- operation, as well as national effort, by Governments and peoples. Many mistakes have been made and will be made. Things, however, have a way of straightening themselves out eventually.

Chinese shipping interests have appealed to the National Govern- ment of China. for protection against Chinese pirates, who are extending their field of operations. Perhaps the Government will attempt to suppress the marauders, whose cus- tom is to murder as they plunder. It is to be feared, however, that the shipping will have to depend on the British and other naval units to

TRY TO FIND CAUSE OF LOW BACK PAIN

There are a [Nit many people suffering with pain in the lower part of_ the back and in the hip. sometimes running down the log to the ankle.

Resting in bed gives relief in some cases, whereas in other cases no position in ‘bed gives relief and they are thus forced to take pain killing drugs to have any comfort

‘stoves.

Dr. J. I-ilald, Oslo, says that after the age of thirty the joint between the last spine bone and the hip bone has a tendency ic become fixed, in- stead of allowing a slight amount

of motion. 'I'h:is joint is affected either by injury or by infection, and results in pain and tenderness in the,middle of the large muscle- the glutcua-ou which tho bod? rests when we are seated.

Pain in this region 1s not always duo to trouble in this joint, but when the trouble is in the joint the outstanding symptom 18 pI-In when you attempt to bend over to touch the toes with the knees straight.

Although there may be consider- able inflammation in the joint or even a very slight displacement. the X-ray may not show it, and Dr. Hald eays that positive or definite rasults are seen by the X-ray in only 2 or a percent of the cases.

Reports from orthopedic hospital departments in Boston, New York, Philadelphia- and Chicago would indicate that aibout three of every four of these cases of trouble in this joint are due w infection from teeth. tonsils, gall bladder, and large ‘intmtine; the other one in four is due to injury such as a mis- step, a ‘fall, reaching too far for the foot pedals in a motor car, missing the ball in attempting to hlt a golf ball, s. blow on the back or hip, or other accide it.

Whether the pain is due to infec- tion or injury, resting the joint is the first thought.

If from infection, a thorough search should be made for it by ex- amination of teeth, tonsils, sinuses, gall bladder and large intestine. Re- moval of the cause may aggravate the condition for a few days. but complete relief will be obtained later.

If from injury, practically all cases can be relieved by a belt which holds abdomen up in front, and holds lower back straight.

Don't lbe satisfied with simply using drugs to relieve the pain. Nearly every case of back and hip pain is due to infection or injury and the cause can be located. if diligently sought.

Government can go to the country at any time within the next twelve months without getting too close to the time limit: it took ofllce very 1m in 1929 with a sweeping majority. and counts, apparently, upon re- taining enough of that majority to disappoint and discomfit the Hep- bum-Nixon group, singly or collec- tively.

Of Hepburns campaign methods me Montreal Gazette, an independ- ent observer in so far as Ontario politics are concerned, says:

Bacons and hams were the leading line, having a value alone of $812,737, going mostly to the United Kingdom. Canada also headed the world's list of eXDOYWrB of oats to Holland in 1902. and for the same year almost quadrupled her export oi rye, namely, 68.376 metric tons as against 17,745 tons in i931, displacing the Argentine as headliner.

The Dominion of Canada has re- placed the United States as lead- ing exporter of patent leather to the markets of the United Kingdom, according to information which has reached the Montreal Board of Trade. This increase of Canadian exports of patent leather, as well as certain classes of calf leather to Great Britain, is held to be a direct benefit from the preference accorded Canada by the United Kingdom under the terms of the trade agree. merits drawn up during the [mpgf- ial Economic Conference held in Ottawa in i932.
