This company reports i004 sales as nearly double 193a figures, and that the number of employees has been increased by 30 per cent. Mr. Moore also states that a definite indication oi’ business improvement in associa- ted industries is shown by the greatly increased tonnage of grey iron castings that his firm is pro- ducing for manufacturers who do not operate foundries.

He said that the skill of the s -- was almost lost as far as the patients were concerned beca the patients were unable to rest. And as the doctors and nurses living in the hospital were likewise unable to rut owing to road noises the eflic- iency of the hospital was _ tly lessened. As an experiment the secretary of the hospital occupied for a night ‘Ibough in full health and strength the experience was a nightmare; a total of 40B passed Jn six hours. These included heavy motor vehicles such as milk trucks. As you know the Minister of Transport then forbade the use of motor horns from 11.90 o'clock at night until ‘I o'clock in the morn- ing, within five miles of a central point-Charing Cross. The success of this law has been so great that the regulation for- bidding the sounding of horns or other instruments of warning is now in force in all the built-up districts in Great Britain. "It is noteworthy that this sil- encing by night of the warning noises of automobiles has not lcd to any irwrease of accidents." Now it is impossible to get rid of all noises but a oolmnittee of scien- tists and motor manufacturers has been appointed to consider and re- port on the principal causes of noise in motor cars and the steps to be taken to limit them. It is certainly most gratifying to see that in the large city of Lon- don the great harm noise can do not only to hospital patients but to the entire population, is nqw rec- ognized. Noise is a shock to the nervous system, tensing body and mind, thus causing tiredness and lowered vitality. Your entire body is covered with muscle in fact muscle up the biggest part of you. Noise, by caus- ing you to tense all these muscles, in which the brain must also do its part, brings on fatigue hours ba- fore it would otherwise come. causes lying around that have not too strong advocacy and that are not any too popular.

Herc in Austria. we have the spectacle of a Fascist government doing its utmost to suppress Naai-isnn-m. The fact that pan-handling pay! well explains why the practice is __ rsistcnt.
