News yesterday advises us that Prime Minster Ramsay Mac- Donald succeed " in meeting both the desires and wishes of Germany and France in the matter by simply eliminating all the clauses referring to reparations in the Versailles Treaty. As a matter o: fact. seeing that the reparations agreements, (hi concluded at Versailles were practically abrogated by the suc- cessive Dawes Plan, Young Plan and Hague Plan and now the Lausanne Plan, it is of no conse- quence whether the alleged cause for shouldering Germany with the cost of reparations remains in the ‘Ireaty or not. I-lor the sake of his- tory, however. it may be as well to set out the terms oi the article in question as contained in the Treaty: of Versailles. , It reads: places the responsibility world-war upon our shoulders." Prince and statesman. m view o! the settlement now sought in order to obtain unanimity in the agree- ment at Lausanne, it is well to place rising generation may know on whosd shoulder; the ruponsibility for the world disaster of 1914 lies. notwithstanding anything that may be said to the contrary for the pur- pose of attaining a specific object, by politicans and diplomatists of to-day. A DEAD ISSUE There was once a Liberal Premier o! Prince Edward Island who was quoted in the mainland pressashav- report was subsequently contradict- ed, but in the meantime it created such a furore than even at Ottawa those who had their ears to the Found must have caught some echo of the criticism with which it was received. Indeed. few people with any knowledge of Maritime condi- tions have ever taken seriously the Bllszestlon of a political union oi the three Provinces. It has never been a live issue: the objections to it are many and obvious; but this has not prevented the subject from cropping up repeatedly in news- papers ln the Central Provinces. Just why Ontario and Quebec should be so optimistic about Meri- time Union it ls difficult to say; but no occasion is aliowed to pass without some wiseacre in these Provnces suggesting that a political union oi New Brunsnwick, Nova "The Allied and Associated Gov- errlmenfs affirm, and Germany accepts, the responsibility oi Ger- many and her allies for causing all the loss and damage to which the Allied and Associated Governments and their nationals have been sub- jected 8s a consequence o.’ the war imposed upon them by the aggres- sion of Germany and her allies." 1t must be borne in mind in con- sidering this article of the Treaty that the framers had just con- cluded one of the most terrible wars in the history of the world, and that the Bkreemcnt was designed to make the recurrence of such a war impossible. Europe lay in ruins. No one denied it. Who had destroyed hcr?

A slick fellow named Marshall is under arrest in New York chars“! with s-windling a Californian, an err-police Feuienant named Connel- ly out of $22,800 by "letting him in" on horse races to take place in Montreal. Connelly met Marshall on a steamer returning from England a year ago, when the confidence game began. Marshall has a police record and his extradition to Mont- real is asked for. How the err-police- man calne to be let in by a confi- dence man and how he came to have so much money are things un- explained but some of Uncle Sam's police officers have ways of their own oi getting the filthy lucre. The Christian Science Monitor says that American capital furnish- ed the sinews that enabled the Chil- ean industry to raise its production nine-fold over the pro-war level. Copper exports to the United States represents 35 per cent. of all Chile's exports. The business has been kill- ed by the d-ccnt tariff, as the price of copper for some time. as quoted in the New York market, has been less than six cents a pound. William Z. Foster, Communist candidate for the presidency of the United states. has been arrested at Los Angeles on suspicion of "crim- inal syndicalism." Mr. Foster may bask in this brief notoriety,” but his name will hardly be mentioned in the returns on election day. The Amer-cans are most conservative voters. The youthful Earl of Egnlcnt is returning to the Western prairies. which, with his father, he left a few years ago to dwell in the family‘; ancestral halls in England. The father's death left this lad with about a million dollars, not enough to carry on the estate, so he is retum’ng to the Alberta ranch, on which he will be more at home. and where a million will go a long WHY- ‘The Canadian Lumber-man says: Negligence of duty or indifference to rasponsibillty can be said to have a hand in nearly every fire. To safe- guard property from fire, there should, of course. be no relaxing of effort. Since, however, most fires are due to negligence or carlessness, that is one of the features which fire prevention activities should especially aim to minimize. If all plant. owners and operatorscculd be persuaded to exercise the utmost in precautionary measures, it is safe to say that the fire toll would im- mediatcly drop below any point it has yet reached in the woodworking industry. Fire-resistive construction and proctective systems are invalu- able aids to safety. Sprinkler instal- lations. water mains and hydrants, chemical extinguishers, barrels and buckets-each has its niche to fill in helping to safeguard against fire‘s depredations.

'I‘hey lnllovl tlwy have chronic indlsfition: but be- cause they do not suffer sharp or severe pain, they never think that they might have an ulcer. Now ulcer of the stomach is a serious matter but the co ung truth that has collie to light h that by far the greatest proportion of these ulcers can be cured by diet and medicine without the need of all operation. Unfortunately they may occur again due to the same causes — in- fection, wrong eating habits, ex- treme nencusness, and again re- quire medical treatment or even operation. in a series of 1900 cases of ulcer of the stomach and of first part of the small intestine immediately ad- joining the stomach, Dis. Brown and Sippy, Presbyterian Hospital, New York, made a record or sur- vey of these cases covering a period of fifteen years. They received 1224 replies to the question sheet they sent out. A period oi two and one- half years was the least time that had elapsed since the treatment. The average age of onset was 35 years, but there were cases at all other ages also. The average time of the first ap- pearance of symptoms before com- ing under observation was seven and one-half years. Think of that for a moment. All these patients suffered for years before they knew or at least were treated for ulcer. Practically every ulcer causes either distress or pain. Of this ser- ies 49 per cent had a. feeling of dis- tressand 51 per cent had actual pain. The distress or pain appeared from one to three hours after eat- ing in 20 per cent from two to three hours after eating in 4B per cent, and from three to four hours after eating in 32 per cent. These figures definitely prove that in cases of ulcer there is always either distress or pain. ' A Pain in ulcer is with but few ex- ceptions deflnitely located in one small spot in the stomach region, seldom being found below the um- bilicus or navel. The point then is that with ulcer of the stomach, or of the part of the small intestine within a very few inches of the stomach, there is pain and distress at a definite time after eating. Don't be satisfied to sufler with a “little indigestion" if this symptom is present; begin the diet and medical treatment at once. dual, personal carefulness. ‘Ihat every fire prevention program.

Sixty percent. of Summer u. _, are of reputedly good swimmers, and more than half of these are men and boys 25 years and under. The good swimmer ls too self confident and often over- taxes his strength. I-le disregards the common rules of safety which have been laid down as follows: 1. Do not go swimming alone or at night. 2. Don't over - estimate your strength. Because you have been able to swim a certain distance sev- eral times that day, does not mean that you will be able to do it again. 3. Never swim across a lake or A bank, like an individual, strength an}! commands confidence through years of ex. parlance.

At the first opportunity learn how to rescue drowning persona without unduly endangering your own life and learn how to admin- ister artlflcial respiration. 5. Do not attempt to swim to a drowning person's rescue in rough or_ deep water unless no other help is immediately at hand and you are confident you are capable of effect- ing a rescue without sacrificing the drowning person's, as well as your own life. 6. If possible before starting to a rescue, call to someone to get a rope or a boat. If you are dressed remove shoes, coat and trousers- an extra second or two removing clothing is time well spent. "l. Don't swim for at least two hours after eating, and never swim beyond your dept in very cold water. Severe indigestion or muscle cramps may result. B. Never» drink any cold beverages ‘ ‘mfely before going swimming. 9. Skylarking in 9, boat is danger- ous. Learn how to enter and leave boats and canoes and how to man- age them properly. Beware of sud- den squalls and storms, strong winds and a choppy sea. 10. Don't duck or tease your friends who are not as good swim- mers as yourself.
