The commitment is contingent, however, upon the willingness of the Federal Government at Ottawa to shoulder a similar responsibility in connection with the scheme, leaving the municipalities concerned to pay the remaining zé par cfnt. Apparently the U.S.A. is in for a "blood purge" with a view to the lessening of serious crime. The House of Representatives at Wash- ington has just passed and sent to the Senate a bill by Rep. Martin Dies (D., Texas), com- pelling deportation of aliens who. within the last five years have been convicted of various crimes. Chairman Samuel L. Dickstein (1),, New York). of the House Immigration Com- mittee, said thc measure would result in deporta- tion‘ of ‘$3,000 alien racketters, who have been a menace to the country. in a o The reports of business during May have been of the same general character as in April. The industries have well-filled order books to worl-c on. and production in most lines is holding at peak levels, past the time when a seasonal tap- ering off is usually expected. In factory opera- tions percentage gains over last year compare favorably with previous months, the indexes of production averaging 18 to 2o per cent. higher. and junc is certain to be another good month. l-Yttiployment and payrolls are at the peak of the recovery. The continued large increase in farm income, 24 per cent. in April as compared Willi a year ago, is another item on the ‘optim- ists’ side. The crop start is fairly favorable. and in the Northwest is inspiring hopes of bet- tcr business conditions than in any recent year.

I00 to the minute and the temperature was normal, the physician suspect- ed early thyroid trouble and had him undergo a. metabolism test. Sure enough, the test showed that the body processes were working at the rate of 117 instead of 100, and a5 115 is considered the outside limit to be called normal, the pat- ient was ordered to take a com- pletc rest from his work. After a month's rest the heart raw was down to 90 and at the end of two I months it was down to 84. The pat- ient and physician were naturally pleased as the "rest cure" had apparently made operation uri- necessary. However. the next month the heart rate was back up to 100 and the physician felt that the rest cure was not ltkely to affect a cure; operffon was now necessary. However on questioning the patient further he learned of some domestic trouble that arc-e tom time m time causing the patient great anxiety and so de- cided to postpone operation.
