This is shocking because immunization against diph- theria is hariuless, effective, and everywhere available. Diphtheria could be made as rare as smallpox if we tiscd against it the knowledge and 1110:1115 we 110551-55. In Canada lust year 114 persons died 0f scarlet fever and 333 of whooping cough. From this deadly trio of children's diseases there were 758 fatalities, as compurcd to 303 in 1943 and 945 in 1942, the decrease being wholly explain- ed by a sharp reduction in whooping cough. The tt-xtiid llllllllllllZZlliUll against diphtheria is prttcticallv 100 per cent effective, and pre- ventive utediciue is not helpless against 1hr other rut-tubers of this deadly company. Th5 Health League of Canada puts it this way‘. "\\'hotiping tmugh vaccine provides protection in tuore thzut 34o per cent of those treated and in cases where the disease occurs after vaccine has been given, the cztscs are much milder. Scarlet fevers immunizing agent is a toxin It ltns not been perfected as has diphtheria 10x- oid, lint it gives 8o per cent protection.” The llcalth I..ezigtte. co-operating with civic dt-purtttient 0f hcrtltlt, has designated the pcriorl Scptcntbcr 3o to October 6 as National Immunization \\'C(‘l\', when special attention will be draw u to these preventable and terrible diseases. Smallpox also will come under review, and the lleztlth Lcztquc points out that while smallpox is "practically extinct" in Canada there is no rtnttirrtl immunity" against it and no safety except in vaccination. . Taxation And Income All gwivcrnuteut expenditures in 1929 WP‘ resented 18 per cent 0i the national income, but they represented 27 pa cent in 1938, ac- cording to a bulletin of the Citizens’ Research Institute. This iticrensetl percentage was due both to increased expenditure and a sharp dc- clinc in the itzitional incnitie. Then, of course. war expenditure changed the picture, and all gnveruiucitt expenditure in 1942 was 69.1 p6!‘ cent of tltc national iucottte. \_\'illt the \\'.'ll' over. the rate will now fall attain but llttt to the old level, lmcause 0f in- creased eztpentlitttrcs by all governments for education. ltealth and social services, in addi- tion to the Wlllllllllillfg‘ llomuzion expenditure due t0 the ivar-for interest, pensions 'and vvcl- fare of the veterans. \\'ith government costs that are relatively stable, and with considerable variation in the national income, the burden of the cost of gov- ernment is felt a great deal more when that in- come can ll<»\\' he tnaintztittctl will limit what can be dune in the different spheres of government. Municipal expenditure increased only from $312,875,000 in 1929 to $325,224,000 in 1942- due to restricted sources of revenue. Provincial expenditure incrcasetl frotn $150,066,000 to $27,"._t;'1,tm0, due to the social services, educa- tion and ltighivay improvements. Dominion nou- war expenditure also grew from $385,000,000 in 1020 to t§_;7o_00o.o0o in 1042 because of ex- ‘patision of many govcrtinient services and in- creased grunts to the provinces. There is ceaseless demand for new services, but the extent toiwhiclt it can be satisfied de- pends on the strcnqtlt 0f the economic founda- tion of the country. 'l'hnt, in turn, depends on our ability to find zttleqtiatc tuarkets for Cana- dian production. the capacity for which has greatly increased in the last six years. The “C011 scripted La borers Sonic Latiadiztu soldiers, stationed in Hol- land. are sending complaints home that they are cntupcllctl by their officers to work on Ilutch fztruts. it is not that they object to the u/trk, for they admit they have very little to do, but they think they should not be forced to work while Dutch men and IQRn remain idle. ~ The complaint is stated vigorously in a 1541m- in the Jlu/tlt“ Lcuf signed by “Eighty- fonr (‘onscrititcd Laborers." "We have here. we think you wlll M110. l legitimate beef, namely: "Approximately half o1’ this unlt have been ordered (yes, ‘ordered’ ls the correct word; it's compulsory and we have no say ln the matter at all) to work 0n the surrounding farms. All WTII and good; we certainly haven't. been over- worked lately. and most of us would welcome the job l1 there were not hundreds (and that ls ~no exaggeration) of Dutchmen 1n this area who do nothlng nll day but slt. around the banks of the canals here, sunbathlng, ftahlng or swimming. Not to mention many more who hang around the cafes and street comers, whose occupation seems to be to keep the black mar- ket flourishing, at which job they seem to be very efficient." The complaint of the "conscripted labor- ers" comments the Vancouver Prozrfnct, is nat- ural enotigh. But perhaps the boys do not see the whole picture. They admit that under nor- mal circumstances they WOlllfl welcome the variety of some farm work. and that is, no doubt, why their officers assign them to the iobs. As for the Dutchmen, there are probably reasons ivhy they sit about. and these reasons can be lungned up in the one word. "$580M!"- ization." The whole of the business structure of Holland, as of so much of Europe, has been shattered and will have to be built up again. Meanwhile, until the framework is rebuilt and the wheels set going, there is no one to set everybody, to work. Nor is there much eu- couragement to work and earn, for money is ‘not of much value —- there are so few things one can buy with it. .-E DI I URIAL NUT I28- Though the Labour Department announces there are still 124,000 jobs to be filled in Can- ada, it must be borne in mind that the number in this province is small indeed, and mostly pick-and-shovel jobs. U I I I Queen Elizabeth, the Virgin Queen, born thisWIatc I533, datightcr of Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn; she reigned for 70 years in one of the greatest eras of all times, both as re- gards commercial and industrial progress and in art and letters; as a ruler, she chose good advisers and was popular with her stibjects. v m v The first pre-fa-bricatcd aluminum houses have appeared in the city of Bristol, England. These houses took three-and-a-half hours to erect and during that time, water, gas and electricity were laid on. “We took rather a long time,'_’ remarked the foreman. “With a little more experience we shall be able to put them up more quickly." u n U Prime ~Ministcr Mackenzie King waS drawn into the American newspaper contro- versy over responsibility for Pearl Harbor when the lVas/tirtgloit Star quoted him in an editorial as having said, after a talk with Presi- dent Roosevelt in November, 1941, that the Japanese were “clearly uneasy at the prospect of taking the military initiative” in the face of the determined attitude of the United States and Great Britain.

The Kumyk State national theater which observes its 15th anniversary this month with a first performance of Shakespeare's Othello, was established by native youths with the en- conragement of the Government. At first they performed in mountain valleys, their stage an open gladc. One of the minor nationalities in- habiting the North Caucasus, Kumyk has shown great interest in the drama. Some 500,000 peo- nle have attended productions in the short hist- ory of the State theater. n w v "Our family has a lot of troubles (said the old man to the Printed lVord). The boys had troubles with Germans and they seem likely to have troubles with Japs for some time. 'I‘het1 here at home there are these high taxes—in- conic taxes and nuisance taxes of one kind and another. I can't get anybody to climb up and fix the eavetrough. I can't get the kind of cig- ars I like. There's only one consolation itt ail these troubles. During the past few years some of my friends have bought themselves farms, so they could have something solid under their feet in all this world turmoil. Well, I never got around to buying one of those nice, attractive places ‘out in the country. And now, when I hear the difficulties my friends are having, it makes me feel thankful to think that at least our family doesn't own a farm." x m v 1 I The Hon, Paul Beaulieti, Quebec, Minister of Trade and Conunerce a few days ago de- clared that “Quebec must become a province with an industrial mentality." Twenty-five years ago, or even less, such a statement might have scandalized those who had been led to be- lieve that Quebec was destined by Providence to be different from the rest of Canada, that her health and wealth depended on a sound agriculture, organized along lines familiar to those who knew something of the “peasant states" of mediaeval times. But there are few today who could subscribe to such a view. L: Naiwcllirt: declares: “It is now or nev- er to establish on solid foundation our economic activities. We are stepping forth into a new world, we are entering upon a new era and nearly everybody has to build anew. If once again we remain behind-far behind-—the oth- ers, whom can we blame if not ourselves?" I I I I The British flag is once more flying at Sin- gapore and the thousands of British and Can- adian prisoners will be freed after three years’ imprisonment. The ancient city of Singapore Island was destroyed by the Javanese about 1365. The Island remained waste until the pre- sent settlement was founded in 1819 by Sir Stamford Raffles, who leased the site on be- half of the East India Company from the Sultan of Johore, by whom the entire Island was ceded to the British by the Treaty of I824. _Sir Stamford Raffles, influenced by old histories, chose the natural, centre to which he foresaw trade would flow from all the corners of the world, and promised in 1820 that Singapore would become the pride of the East. The popu- lation, about a hundred and fifly when the set- tlement was founded. is now over half a mil- lion. The development. of Singapore has been due to British administration, financed by Brit- ish and Asiatic capital. Up to the surrender to l free poet.

A recent survey shows that fifty- four per cent of Americans go to bed at l0 p.m.; by 11 p.m. 81 per cent of those queried were in bed, and by midnight, s. total of 95 had been accounted for, But 1n Can- ada. the same question has shown different results: only 31 per cent of Canadians went to bed at 10 pm. Seven-one per cent, had made 1t by 11 o'clock and a total of 94 per cent were ubed by mldnlzht. It was evident that. early retire- ment 1n Canada depends directly on the slze of the community. At 11 o'clock 1t was found that. 91 per cent of dwellers 1n farming com- munities had retired for the night, whlle the percentage dwlndled to 56 per cent, for urban residents 1n centres of over 100,000 population. -Amherst News Sentinel. 0n the top of 12,000,000 ton! of actual food. lt ls estimated that 30,000,000 tons of coal. several thousand locomotlves- and thous- ands of rallway carswlll be want:- ed.

' ' Um cuauwrrmtown cumznum Should Family Given To Or To ll The method of famlly allow- ance: established by the present. law threatens to dlvlde paternal authorlty, at least 1n those cruel where, according to the regula- tloxis. the allocation l9 pald to the mother, considered as the sole admlnlatrator. There W111 thus be two parental powers 1n the fam- lly between whom there wlll be no lubordlhntion and who can not Independently of each other: the power of the father which ls cou- ferred by nature; that of the mother which she wtll exercise to the exclusion of the husband u manager‘ of the famlly allowances. Enough causes of discord already exist between the two spouses that. the law ltself need not. introduce this permanent. source of discord. Thls problem would not be likely to present itself lf the allowance lnstead of being really given to the child through the one or the other of lts parents, were given 1n full ownership of the family to assist 1t ln its task as provider and edu- cator of the children. , There ls also a danger that many heads of family may lose interest 1n thelr children and be- lieve themselves relieved of the duty of providing for thelr needs. Here is, ln effect, the reasoning which many wlll be tempted to use: “Henceforth, 1t. 1s the State which assumes charge of the ch11- dren; 1t furnishes the money nec- essary for thelr needs. It has ap- polnted another admlnlstrator than myself to look after them. My re- sponslblllty 1s now at an end; I am no longer‘ bound.” I I The method employed by the law to prevent whatever abuses may arise 1s likely to expose ev- ery famlly in Canada to numer- ous annoyances. The low stipul- ates ln effect that lf the author- ized official is “convlnced that the allowance ls not employed exclus- lvely for maintenance" of th child, "the payment should be discontinued or made to some other person or organization." As a. careful official 1s bound to seek correct execution of the law, how can he assure himself that. the money of the allowances serves the welfare of the children ex- cluslvely without making an ex- tenslve investigation? It wlll thus be his privilege and duty to inves- tigate all famllles and to demand a detailed statement of the use of the money spent. by the State; to tell parents what they may or may not do. etc. The intrusion of the State into the family thus be- comes an everyday affalr instead of being a. right reserved solely for cases of abuse. I I U Since the ownership of the money of the faintly allowancgg 1g transferred by the State to m; children. 1t can be logically maln- talned that each child has a strict right to the exact amount which the law assigns to him according to hls age and the rank which he occupies 1n the family. and that, the mother or the father would commlt an injustice if he indulges the fancy of treating all his ch11- dren equally without regard to the legal calculator, although the law maintains, on the other hand thawfamlly allowances are estab: llshed 1n order to afford every child equal opportunities in 111e, Thus. 1t: would allot to Peter, who 1s fourteen years old and who oc- cupies the top place ln the 1am. 11y. the sum of $8 a m0ngh_;95 . year; while to poor Huguette who 1s flve years old and who has e misfortune to be the eighth c ld 1n the family, who ls alllng and who neers expensive medical care, the mother, according to the terzns of the law, can allow only $2 a month of the allowances re- celved.
