_j,"_,1e0us12vo CONVENTION

i‘ . The harmony and enthusiasm Xuiwhich prevailed at the Conservative convention at Summrrside on Sat- urday was an inspiration to all who participated. The convention was called to nominate a candidate for the Legislative seat in the 5th Dis- trict of Prince, made vacant by the death of the Hon. L. M. MacNeill, Minister of Public Works. There

,. I was practically s. full representation

of delegates from all parts of the constituency. Among many eligible candidates, the choice fell "upzn Mr. H. .\I. Downing, whose nomina- tion, on motion of Mr. Thomas Linklettcr, was made unanimous. Mr. Downing is well and‘ popularly known throughout the district and there is every reason to believe that the confidence reposed in him by the convention will be heartily in- dorsed by the electorate when the opportunity comes.

Owing to the recent illness of Premier Stewart, the convention had been postponed from an earlier date. Mr. Stewart was present on Saturday and received an enthusi- astic ovation. He dealt ably with the issues in the coming by-elec- tlon, and received, at the conclu- sion of his remarks, unanimous in- dorsution in the form of a resolu- tion expressing confidence in his leadership, appreciation of his speech and presence at the meet- lng, and congratulations upon his recovery to his accustomed health and strength. As all present real- ized, the duties of office have fal- ien heavily upon the present Pre- mier. The disastrous fires at Fal- conwood Hospital and Prince of Wales College, accompanied by the loss of so able a lieutenant as the late Hon. Mr. MacNeilL- placed heavy additional burdens of res- ponsibility upon the leader of the Government; and the conscienti- ousuess with which these respon- sibilities llave been discharged has been an example to all.

Evident at the convention was the fact that the fiscal policies of the Stewart‘ administration have been approved by the thinking ele- ment of ‘the electorate and that these policies will find further sup- port and approval as the by-elec- tion campaign progresses.

Mr, Downing is to be warmly congratulated upon the honour conferred upon him in his election as standardbearer of the party in a district which has given so many able and successful men to the po- litical life of the Province.

THE WAR DiEBTS

The campaign in the Hearst press against the Allied nations because of the war debts situation is 0f little iconccrn to readers in this or any other Britsh country, who know

Hearst as a persistent propagan- dist and sensation monger. His arguments, however, provide the

text for some timely editorial com- ment in the Vancouver Province, which points out that the war debts are unpayable except through as great an economic earthquake as went to their creation. The debts were created by the shipment of goods, not money. And if they could be discharged without very much goods, it is very likely they would be discharged without very much fuss. The annual sum due, about $270,000,000, when spread over the various debtor nations, would not be an impossible sum if facilities for paying it ex‘sted. But they do not exist. Nor would they exist ,1! the European nations reduced their armaments.

The war debts. it is pointed out, can be discharged only in the way they were created-by the ship- ment of goods. But the United stat- es docs not want goods. It built up great industries to manufacture war supplies, then turned these industries to make commodities for peace. It has more of these commodities now than it can use, and to accept more from abroad would mean gM-‘fl-flgl United States 9811 not af-

ford to allow the wu debts to be plid in the only 00in in which they can be paid. The United States has been insisting on gold. But there lsnt enough gold in the world to discharge the debt, and the pay- ments already made in gold have been jusfiubout a. disastrous as l: they have been made ‘in goods. They have depleted the world's gold resents. sending to low levels the prices’ of commodities in internat- ional exchange, particularly basic commodities like cotton, wheat and metals. So the United States has suffered, through the constriction of purchasing power at home and abroad, o. great deal more than it has gained through the gold sent to it across the Atlantic.

Perhaps, after the pmidential el- ection campalgn, United States pol- iticilms will admit what the states- men of other countries have long realized, that the only thing to be done with the war debts is to forget them.

STRANGE BEDFELLOWS

The Co-operative Commonwealth Federation, the party led by Mr. J. S. Woodsworth, Labor M. P. for Winnipeg North Centre, boasts one retired capitalist At least that. 's the way one of the delegates to the recent meeting at Calgary styled himself. It seems he is a. landlord, whose investments are not, tn such fine shape. A couple of bank in- spectors were also listed as dele- gates. . Here are the occupations of the delegates, according to an change: Two lawyers, six teachers, one miner, one professor, fifteen farmers, six houseworkers, three journalists. two steam engineers, one hotel keepertone retired min- ister, one merchant,” one motion picture operator, three nurses. twenty constructional workers, two union executivw, twelve members of Parliament or mglslature, nineteen unemployed men and women, one retired capitalist and two bank 1h- spectors. .

‘Ihose are the originals. They hope to get sufficient reinforce- ments tb take Parliament Hill by ballot storm at the next elect‘on. Conservatives and Liberals will have something to say in the battle for votes.

POTENTIAL MARKET

What the Imperial Conference may achieve in diverting British trade to Canadian producers may be gathered from the following analysis:

In the first six months of~ the present year, Great Britain pur- chased more oats from the Argen- tine than from Canada; more bacon from each iof Decimal-k, Poland, Netherlands and Sweden than from Canada; more hams from the Unit- ed States: more cheese‘ from the Netherlands; more tobacco from the United states; more hides from Ger- many and the United States, and more leather from United States; more paper from Scandinavia: more timber from the United States, Rus- sia, Sweden and Finland; more wood pulp from Norway and Finland than from Canada.

HIS MARK

Canadian history books may some day carry the following little story, which is vouched for by "The Mari- timer," official organ of the Marl- t'me Provinces Club of Montreal:

"A small boy named Borden, probably as good or as bad as the rest, carved his initials where he should not have carved them. That was over a half century ago at Acacia Villa School, which is near Grand Pre, N. 3., the place where the boy was bom.

"Today the school is a thing of the past. It was never large, but W111 Year a dozen or so hopefuls drew inspiration from the "R. L. B." left by Sir Robert Borden, who snce

The New York banks still hold a third 0r more of the world's gold, says the London Times. Its accumu- lation has probably been the great- est single factor in bringing about the crisis. By producing a scarcity of money in other countries it drove down world prices, impoverishing the primary producer in the United States as elsewhere, and made it difficult for the rest of the world to buy American goods. Instead of oiling the wheels of internal and international trade u “was used to finance an extravagant orgy of stock exchange speculation and made the basis of a gold inflation with the inevitably disastrous rc- suits.

_ Regarding u.» onslaught made by the Manchester Guardian, for which, says ‘the Evening Telegram, there does not appear to be any serious justification, it is perhaps due to the strong adherence of this Liberal newspaper to the policy of Free Trade, and to its fears that the Imperial Conference is decidedly favourable to preferential tariffs.

Even if trouble comes, the nations must ultimately return to Lausanne and the methods of Lausanne. To the statcsmanship”of M. Her-riot and Capt. Von Papen must be added the tireless energy and high-minded clarity with which Mr. MacDonald conducted their deliberations. With- out his moderating and guiding hand the Conference could hardly have lasted forty-eight hours. These three men will go down in history perhaps higher than the artisans of the pacts of Locarno. America has the opportunity to add another name to the roster of those states- men who are leading the world back to true economic and political peace. Christian Science Monitor.

All things being considered, says Le Droit, Ottawa, intro-Empire trade has been more profitable to the Dominions than it has been to Britain. This is a fact which can- not be overlooked. There is no use having any illusions about it. As long as this situation exists Britain will be in a position to bargain for her needs. ‘She will not cease to re- mind us that she is not the great profitecr she has been represented to be. And as this is the case, every increase in tariffs should benefit her industries no less than it does our Cummeree. The chief thing is fol-

the Dominions to begin by preserv- ing the present standing of intro.- Empire commerce. If it has not been as extensive as we would have wished, at least it has operated in our favour. It would be a fatal mis- take if, by unreasonable ordinances, we were to destroy all that we, have built up in Dasttyears.

It was to be expected that the British free-trade papers would find little to approve in the Imperial Conference. They are utterly oppog- ed to food taxes and any interfer- ence with the free flow of trade with foreign countries. They will not be satisfied, no matter what flsreements the delegation from Great Britain may make, Iihen- lag. est attack upon' Premier Bennett, however, was rather ill-timed, Mn Baldwin promptly denied that Can- ada was in any way holding up the Proceedings at Ottawa, and the Canadian Prime Minister has laid his cards on the table, not face down but face up. He has gone fur- ther in the direction of opening the Canadian market to British goods than the British delegation had an. ticipated. Whether an agreement; 1n accord with his wishes be possible i" mt. the spirit m which the dis- cussions are being carried on 15 most praiseworthy. That any agreement Pmviding preferences would please the free-traders is not eXpected, Nevertheless the attacks by the free- trade newspapers create anything but a favorable impression in Can- ada. Criticism in advance of, and without knowledge of, what may be agreed upon is not playing the game.

THE ADULT

The normal healthy adult ran- not understand the ways of child- ren, savages, and the insane. The reason that he cannot understand their behavior is that as he came to manhood he has been repressing or putting away from him the thoughts, feelings, and dreams of childhood. He has gradually learn- ed that if he is to become a. man he must put away childish things; that the thoughts and actions of childhood cannot be used in the great world of adults.

Thus a child, a savage, or an in- sane person not having these rep- ressions, not trying to keep dcwn any desires or actions that come into their minds do things that

the standpoint of a civilitedfildult, who has repressed these childish, unwise, unlawful actions.

It is because mind or mental specialists are keenly aware of R115, that they are able to treat adults who act like children or savages.

The adult who is mentally sick has simply reached the point where his childish impulses have broken through his adult replesane pow- ers, and the mental specialist treats him from that standpoint.

When the adult begins t0 act like a. child or savage, no curb or re- pression on his fancies or desires. it is called psychosis. Once before 1

sisterlt dream state.‘ Some one else has said ‘Psychosis can be consider- ed as a flight from reality, and from the adult form of existence, back to childhood to a happier time, in which phantasy or the pleasant dream or vision prevails without being hampered or hinder- ed by the actual or real conditions about oned

As a matter of fact we all have these ‘phantasies’ or dreams of our childhood. You ‘may remember the lines ‘Backward turn backward Oh time in thy flight. Make me a child again just for to-night.’ It would be so much more pleasant to be enjoying the happy days of child-_ hood; than the hard responsibilities of our everyday life.

But we put away these child- ish dreams or fancies and go about our work, taking our place in the world, doing the things we should do and repressing or keeping down the desires that would make it im- possible for us- to live with other people.

The mental specialist by grad- ually having the patient tell him all about these childish fancies, and getting him to overcome or repress them, is able to affect a cure.

the oceans spanned by swift air- planes, there is but little virgin ter- ritory left on the surface of the earth. So it is that the path of ad- venture is moving into the unknown reaches of the skies where the scope is unlimited for ‘sporting effort, scientific achievement, in a realm long given up to fanciful romance and flights of imagination to Mars and Venus.

Professor Auguste Piccard, who ascended ten miles last year in a sealed aluminum ball attached to a gas bag and looked down upon depths never before seen by man, is ready for another flight, new re- cords his objective, but no longer has he this field to himself. Four other sky-piercing expeditions are in the planning.

At Rochester, England, is being constructed the largest free balloon ever made to which will be attached a globe similar to Piccard's. It is to be the vehicle of Oswald Short and his aeronauts and they hope to reach a height of fifteen to seven- teen miles.

German engineers are preparing to attack the stratosphere by means of a high altitude ‘plane, the JU-49, which is being built at Dessau. It is an all-metal, low-wfrlg monoplane, its air-tight cabin filled with strange instruments. In France two ‘planes are being built for a similar mission. One of them, constructed under the supervision of the French Government, is said to be capable of 450 miles an hour at an elevation of ten miles. The other machine is being built by M. Guerchais, a Par- isian engineer.

Finally, on a remote ranch in New Mexico, Professor Robert H. God- dard of Clark University is experi- menting with rockets through which he hopes to send instruments into the upper reaches for out atic re- cording of scientific data. "This en- gine alone in the whole field of

technology." says a writer in the
