EGGS FOR BRITAIN One of the hopeful aspects of the agricultural situation is the revival in the export of Canadian eggs to Great Britain, the volume of which promises to be heavier this season than at any time since 1926. While Canadian eggs have always held a high reputation on the British mar- ket, the relatively higher prices at home, coupled with the adverse “ex- change rate during recent years, have tended to prevent any volume of exports. The tariff preference ac- Great Brztain has introduced have "been the result of the basic change, in her policy and not the result ofl the Ottawa. Conference. Sir Herbert Samuel has the right to disagree with the adoption of the policy of protection in Great Brit- sin. Disagrceing with that policy» he was thoroughly privileged to! withdraw from the National Gov- ernment and in fact could hardly have held firmly to his Qwn poll“- cal lsiews and remained in that government. But to blame the Of- tawa conference for the adoption of the policy of protection in Great Britain is to confuse the real pur- pose of that conference. At Ottawa, a way was found for exempting Britsh Dominlons in large measure from the application of the British duties and its success. therefore, is a factor in lowering the average level of British tariffs below what it would otherw-‘sl- have been. l1 8W VIMY MEMORIAL The Vimy Ridge Memorial to the Canadians who fell in France 1n the Great War is nearly completed, and is to be unveiled next year. It is inscribed with the names of 11,500 Canadian soldlrrs, "known to be dead but having n0 known graves." ‘These are thc namcs of the men who fell up- on the soil of France. The names 0f 7500 more, those who fell in de- Iensc of the Old Salient, are in- lcrbcd at thc Menin Gate. The Vlml’ Memorial is thc lust unfinish- ed British war memorial but one. ' 01c other being the Australian mon- ument at Villicrs-Brettoncux. ‘I The Vimy Memorial as it 1s plc- turcd and described, is an impres- sive monument. It stands on the great ridge that looks doim on Ar- ras, "the gmat bastion of thc West- ern front." and across to thc coal towns. and furihcr yet in thc plain of Flanders. It was designed by Walter Allward, a Canad an sculp- | lnett Government and that those corded Canadian eggs under the 0t, tawa agreements, coupled with the improvement ln exchange rates, have been beneficial factors. An encouraging feature of the Pending export business is that shipments probably will g0 to Bri- ta’n from a number of parts of Canada. In the past, with certain notable exceptions, most of the ex- port shipments have gone to Britain from Ontario and Quebec. Prince Edward Island this year should be prepared to take advantage of the brighter egg marketing prospects. A smAzvcs Alvonnzr According to our local contem- porary, “the whole country is seeth- ‘ing with indignation against Con- servative governments federal and provincial." Yet in its editorial col- umns of the same issue our contem- porary attacks the Bonrds of Trade of the Province for being so quies- cent. "Brief bags," it says, "which were regularly brought forth are now placed 1n cold storage to be used only when a Liberal Govern- ment resumes power." It calls the attitude of the Boards of Trade s. “farce", says they are under the “autocratic authority" of the Ben- “who were most vociferous in for- mer day's are willing now to kiss the hand that smites them." It must strike readers of the Lib- eral oxgan as remarkable that such leading members of our Boards of Trade as Messrs. S. A. MacDonald, R, E. Mutch, E. T. Higgs, W. F. Tid- marsh, George J. Tweedy, Liaison Rattenbuly, C. H. Chandler and B. A. MacL-eod should be rebuked for showing partisanship towards a Conservative administration, especi- ally when, according to our contem- porary. the "whole country" is ‘seething’ with indignation.

BURNS AND SCALDS when we think of all the people who had died following severe burns and know that now we are in pos- session of a form of treatment which prevents this terrible loss of life, we are indeed grateful. You will remember that previous to 1928, from 15 to 40 per cent of those with severe burns diedwhere- as now the death rate is about 4 per cent. This is due to the treatment of burns by tannic acid. Dr. P. H. Mitchener, London. tells us that during the period from 1929 to the present time. when tannlc would be well-advised to post a notice at the gatc-—"NO Idealists to dlsarrm- utterly reasonable.

But they are not insane enough to disann with a madman just across the border, unless 1t ls made very certain that he cannot lay his hands on dangerous fire- arms. Dominion general election is not necessary under the constitution until the Spring cf 1936. It seems that while dissolution must come within five years of the reiurn cf the last writ, the actual voting ncccl not take place until six months thereafter. The writ for thc Yukon was returned at the end of Sop. tember, 1930, 5c um if m» Gov~‘ ernment chose it could hold off the next general election until lvfarcll 1936. The latest from Havana indlcat. es that Dr. Grau San Martin, thc third president which the Republic of Cuba has had within a few weeks, is ready to step down from the presidential chair. He states that tho identity of the man occupying the presidential office signifies nothing in comparison with thc principles of the revolui/Ion. The president-as-is does not specify lust which revolution he means. His willinghcss to surrender the presi- dency might almost be taken as investi- five men trial in Leipzig in the near future. Those accused are the’ Rcichstag leader of the Communist party, three Bulgarians and a former member of the Dutch Communist Party. A London commentator who refers to the trial as a. "test case for Hitler- ism" ls not far from the truth. There arc experiments going nn in Britain. That fine old Lancashfrc firm of Pilkington have decided to reduce the working hours of their Doncaster employees from forty- eight to forty-two hours a week without any reduction of wages. It 1s interesting to recall that Pilk- ingon’s were practically the first firm to reduce their hours from twelve to eight. It may well that civilization with thc aid of ma- chinery is moving towards an era of increased lesure for workers without any decrease in the stand. ard of living. The shorter working week, wheth- tion in wages. is no remedy at all for the world's existing economic ills. If wages were reduced in pro- portion to the hours, it is conceiv- able that a large part. if not the whole of the unefnployed might be-l come reabsorbed in industry. That however, would simply be to stabil- ize the depression level of output . . . But what if weekly wages were left where they are? Clearly the employers will be left with a. higher’ wage bill than before for the same, output. If they do not rccoilp‘ themselves by raising prices, they must be ruined, and if they do raise prices, where is the extra pur- chusing power coming from to buy the product-London (Eng) Morn- ing Post. Thomas Hardy read nature and landscapes as mast people read books. that is. with as much case. be‘ er or not accompanied by a reduc-i acid compresses have been used as the routine outpatient treatment for all burns and scalds no deaths have occurred among the slighter cases, which average 800 a year and of which about one-third are children uudcr ten years of age. The treatment of burns and scalds following proper cleansing of the damaged part, ‘aims at lessening collapse by stopping the absorption into the blood of the substances which usually cause collapse and death in from 12 to 48 hours after the burn. The treatment also aims at les- sening the amount of fluid from the burned part which is often so ser- ious and so often fatal in the first 6 to 12 hours. ' Another aim is to prevent poison- ing of the system from the harmful material on the burned surface. as this may cause broucho pneumonia and death in from 5 to 12 days. Dr. Mitcllcner keeps on hand a stock solution of 2 pcr cent tannic acid and 1 to 2000 blchlorlde of mercury. In homes or shops where burns are not so frequent he compounded a tablet containing 171.5 grains of iannic acid, ‘.4.- grain bichlorlde of mercury, and l grain of borlc acid which tablet dissolved in 2 ounces of water gives a solution of the necessary strength though slightly muddy in appearance. It can be used equally well for spraying when this method is preferred. If there is no tannin mold swoll- able, strong tea poured over the burn has given good results. The relief from suffering and the saving of precious lives by this tun- nic acid treatment certainly gives lcause for thankfulness. w A New Test (Banfishire Journal) Evidently there has been discov- cred a new test of being the worse of liquor. At all events a London mun was last week charged at Croy- don Borough Police Court with being under the influence of drink while driving a car. Medical evidence was given that accused was unfit to drive a car. Inability to touch his own ncsc when his eyes were shut was put forward as one of the signs that thc defendant was under the influence of drink. Accused, allud- ing to a statement by the doctor that he could not stand steadily on one leg with his eyes shut and . hands above his head, said, “I could not do that now and a lot of people are unable to do that at any time." However, a fine was duly imposed.

Under. it, the general practice ls to commit o, man on principles, policies and platforms. The candidate pledges himself in a general way. The details are left to his own judgment. But the new Plan of asking a candidate to com- mit himself in advance on details of legislation and administration leaves nothing at all to the candi- date's Judgment. Once elected, if he has any regard for his pledges, he is no free agent, but a slave.
