Aucusr e. 1929 THE INVASION CONTINUES Al intimated in The Guardian despatches yesterday, the imports of butter into Canada nearly doubled M" to a total of‘ over ten million dollars ‘for the twelve months ended June 80th last. The largely increased im- port, particularly of New Zealand A‘ butter, has for some time been oc- casioning concern to our dairy inter- ests from coast to coast. The Toron- to Mail and Empire points out that while Hon. R. B. Bennett, Dominion leader of the Conservative party, is laying before the people of the Pa- cific province the consequences to Canada's dalrying industry of the extension to New Zealand of the privileges of the Australian treaty in the matter of butter imports, the Public Service News of Nova Scotia ls lamenting the injury done the dairying industry in that province by the same cause. As the Public Service News is con- zerned only with matters of public interest in Nova Scotia, its reference lo the effect of the butter lmlinlia- lions from New Zeaiand can be taken rs an expression of what is a real’ grievance of the Nova Scotla farm- ing and dairying interests. It speaks of dairying as the backbone of the agricultural industry. Anything that hits our dairying industry m injur- ious to our cattle-breeding and beef- producing interests and, therefore, aflects‘ our production of fodder. It also affects farm tillage, for any fill- ling off in the dairying and related industries means a small return to the soil of fertilizing refuse from the barnyard. As the Public News service points out, m New zeaiand the cattle are on pasture the yell round, and the farmers there have not big winter feed bills to provide for. Here the cost. of millfeed is a heavy one, especially to those who have to feed dairy cattle tcn or elev- , en months of the year, as is largely the case in Nova Scotia. Last year __ production of’ Nova Scotia. fell off alarmingly. As the Guardian has frequently pointed out, our farmers can produce all the butter required in this coun- try if the home market is left to them, but when butter imports from New Zealand reach the high point they did last. year, some 24.000000 pounds, the consequent lowering 0f the price discourages dairying in Canada. Another blow to our dairy- ing industry is threatened by the tarlfl-raisers at Washington, and our government. shows no disposition to do anything by way of relief. The recent large exportation 0f dairy cattle to the United States, while it has meant ready money i0 our cattle breeders, has tended to de- plete our best herds, and has worked. along with the inctrasin! 1mg)?“ from New Zeaiand, to the detriment of the dairy industry in Canada. As Hon. Mr. Bennett pertinently asked the farmers in Britirh Columbia: “If the ships from New Zealand fail, who will then supply‘ us with food when our herds are depleted?’ crcamery butter in "rues: wmrour WIIISKEY“ / The suggestion is made. by Rinz Lardner in the current issue of Col- lier‘; Weekly that the u. s.

An armistice would be granted, we'd tell them. as soon as they pledged themselves to eliminate entirely the alcoholic content of the stui! they have been selling to our importers. This would mean a. reduction of nearly two per cent." THAT PENSION CREME It is significant that every Pro- vince from the Ottawa river West has adopted the Federal scheme of Old Age Pensions, and that no pro- vlnce from the Ottawa river East has adopted this legislation. The reason is not. far to seek. The bur- den imposed upon the lower pro- vinces through the legislation now on the Dominion statute books pre- sents such an anomaly, such di.s- crimination, that the present scheme never can be regard-ed as fair or workable. At the time the Old Age Pensions question was before Parliament with- iri recent years, an estimate of costs to the various provinces was made |at Ottawa. Here are the figures, ex- lpressed in terms of percentage of provincial revenue necessary to pay [Old Age Pensions under the present Federal scheme in the Canadian provinces: Prince Edward Islnad .. 55 Nova Scotla . 21 New Brunswick .. 18 Quebec . . . . . . .. . l4 Ontario . 10 Manitoba .. . 4 Saskatchewan .. 3 Alberta . . . . . . . .. . 2 British Columbia . 2 It will be noted that according to the figures quoted, Prince Edward Island would require to assume a than fifteen times of Alberta and burden more greater than that British Columbia. When the provincial Liberal party went to the country in 1027 with a definite promLse respecting Old Age Pensions in their platform, did they know what they were talking about? Did Premier Saunders and his sup- porters have any intention of imple- menting their promise? Was there any justification for the abuse and recrimination heaped upon the Con- servative members for being so “cal- lously negligent‘ as not tohave tak-l en advantage of the Federal scheme for the relief of the aged poor of the Province? Did the Federal Govem- mcnt itself know of the intolerable burden it was placing upon the Eas- tern provinces in putting through such legislation? Admittedly the aged poor of every province should have Old Age Pensions, but it was the duty of the Federal authorities to ensure the payment of such Deli" slons equitably from coast to coast, and it was also the duty of the Saunders Government to have ac- quainted itself with the facts before soliciting votes on the strength of a promise which, it now admitted, it would be ruinous to carry out. At present the Eastern Provinces are lpaying their share of the federal grant to the provinces which have adopted thegscheme. and are re- cciving nothing in return. The Saun- ders Government seems perfectly content with the situation. Th¢y have neither apologized to the peo- ple nor protested to Ottawa. about the inequality of the meas Dur- ing two sessions of the legislature they have been asked time and again for a. reastatement, of their “policy. and they have answered with wind! evaslons. The time is coming, how- ever, when the old Age Pensions scheme and -thg pledges that were based upon it will eenle back to roost. c. a EDITORIAL NOTII The joint exhibit of the Maritime Provinces at the Canadian National Exhibition this year, details of which have already appeared in the preli- will cost £10,000. 0f this amount.‘ Nova Bcotia will pay 00.000.

"We have one foe and one alone-ENGLAND!‘ was its dramat- ic elimax. Lissauer has now said that he repeats having written it. His story as he tells it is that he was seated among his journalist friends in a Hamburg cafe whenthe news ar- rived of England holding up Ameri- ca's hospital supplies for Germany. The news filled him with a. profound rage at seeing the innocent suffer for the guilty. 1n the heat of the ln- ‘. ’ ‘ he wrote the poem, neither wishing nor dream- ing that it would be printed. To his astonishment he saw it shortly afterwards in e. newspaper. One of his Journalistic friends had syndicated it throughout the Ger- man Empire and overnight it had become famous. It was only after the War that the author learned that it had been translated into nearly every language on the globe. He nev- er received a. cent for the hymn, but throughout all the nations opposed to Germany. A Catholic organ in 1915 started a campaign against inclusion of the poem among the books intended for the young. The Berlin Tagblatt and other influential newspapers Joined in the campaigns Lissauer says he wrote The Tagblatt that, he entirely agreed with this view. However, the song continued its sweep in Germany and its author was decorated by the Kaiser with the order of the Red Eagle with the Royal Crown. He became the most popular of German poets of the time. During the year 1915 a number of enthusiastic musicians, for the sake of curiosity at the Royal Acad- emy of Music in London, sang the Hymn of Hate as a chorus with one of England's noted composers at the organ. The scandal provoked great indignation and the participants promised never again to repeat the humorously treasonable offence. The Labor Government in England appears to have come to a deadlock with Soviet Russia notwithstanding the desire on both sides to resume diplomatic relations. ‘The Labor Gov- ernment could not if it would ignore the strong feeling that exists in Great Britain and throughout the Empire against treating with Russia, unless the Moscow authorities wil give indisputable assurances tha they have abandoned their policy of stirring up insurrections and revo- lutions under other governments. Such assurances they cannot give. World revolution is the corner stone of Bolshevlst policy. And the Ram- say MacDonald Government has its limitations in the fact that it does not command a majority in Parlia- ment. The late German Kaiser is now free to return to Germany should he so desire. But he is older now- almost 80 —than when he ran away and was forbidden to return. Per- haps he'is also wiser than he was. Probably he realizes that he is not wanted in the Fatherland. Later he may come back to die, or his remains may be brought back as those of Napoleon were from St. Helena. The Kaiser escaped banishment to the far-off rocky Isle of the sea, not being anything like so great a figure in the. world's affairs as Napoleon W58. War atlll threatens in, the Far East where armies in hostile array confront each other, but there is still some hope that the supreme crisis of the situation may not result in a prolonged and sanguiaary war.

FACTS ABOUT CANCER After each new triumph in medi- cine, wiping out smallpox, malaria, yellow fever, controlling tuberculosis, diabetes and other formerly fatal ill- nesses, you perhaps say to yourself "will cancer ever be cured"? Despite the fact that its exact cause is unknown, ‘one outstanding thing has been learned and that is that “irritation" is the big factor. In England, in the days when chimney sweeps were the rule rather than the exception, it was found that the dirt and soot irritated portions of the body that were never exposed to sunlight, and which, because baths were scarce, were not kept clean. Cancer was common here. ‘Natives of Africa. and other parts of the world keep in the mouth the betel nut, which is irritating. They get cancer of the mouth. "Another savage race living in a colder climate wears, in the winter, on the abdomen, a bag of hot coal, and in the irritation produced by this continuous heat cancer develops. Up to a few years ago there were a large number of mouth cancers and here again it was due to irrita- tion; and the irritation of ragged dirty teeth. Today the number of these cases is becoming less because of the care now given to cleaning the teeth, and good dental care. ' For awhile there were a number of cases of cancer developed in X ray Ollerators due to burns. These also file becoming less in number owing to the care now exercised, Cancer of the breast usually means neglected care for one to three years of an irritated nipple. A corn, a wart, a hangnail, if 1r- ritated, should not be neglected. What does all this mean? Well as Dr. Joseph Colt Blood- good, the great cancer authority briefly puts it “none of us need long. er be, ignorant of the possible causes of cancer, and most of us can be pro- tected from the majority of cancers by this correct information." His figures show that cancer of the skin and mouth, late and hopeless cancer, has been reduced from more than filly to less than l0 per cent, and the number of individuals now Welling medical care before the spot on the skin or mouth becomes a 0811081‘. has increased twenty fold.
