Let's Have The Facts _._...._._._._._. It is surely not The Guardian, a our con- temporary complains, that is making a mystery out of the Lea Government's half-million-dollar bond transaction! The “mystery" was created by the secrecy with which the transaction with the Toronto-Montreal syndicate was put through; and it has been heightened by the per- sistent refusal of the Government press to div- ulge the purpose of the issue, the names of the participating firms 0r individuals, the amount 0f the bids received, the manner in which they were obtained since no tenders were called in the regular way, and the reason why the public of this Province was not advised of the oppor- tunity 0f purchasing the bonds. If there is no reason for suppressing this information, zuliy has it no! bean given? A Flu-Cold Serum Notwithstanding that a great deal of medi- cal research has been devoted t0 the problem. very little is known about the common cold _and its more dangerous brother, the flu. The latest researches, however, as announced by Dr. H. T. Cnicxiaaiuo, of New York City, indicate than colds and flu are the elfcct 0f filterable viruses, that is, organisms which are too small t0 be de- tected by the medical microscopes at present in use, and which are capable of passing through the pores of the finest filters. Steps are being taken to confirm this indication. Another thing recently discovered is that antibodies, agents that enable the host to neutral- ize the virus causing the disease, appear in the blood during convalcscence. This discovery is ,_ highly important and is ‘being used as the basis, isays Dr. CHICKERING, of the manufacture of a ‘fool-proof anti flu-cold serum. It is hoped that success attends these latter Jesearches and that a trustworhy and efiecive 'serum is shorly evolved. The eradication of colds and flu, especially in a country that enjoys a Tiwinter similar to ours, would have a great num- ber of easily seen benefits. Miscl i rected Zeal ‘According to the Ottawa correspondent of ‘rflie Toronto Globe, Premier MACKENZIE KING ‘plans to visit London at the earliest opportunity for the purpose of arranging with Prime Min- .tlie channels of transatlantic trade. 'istcr STANLEY BALDWIN “for a deepening 0f Canadian Government circles are credited ‘by the writer ~with “a feeling that Canada dealt with the . Motherland like a. horse-trader in negotiating r . the agreements 0f I932. This country, it is ad- mitted, drove a hard bargain." What is the purpose of such claptrap? In June last, in the British House of Commons, Rt. Hon. J. H. THOMAS, speaking for the Brit- ish National Government, cited the following gures as evidence of “the great contribution” ade by the Ottawa Agreements: Canada in r932 exported to the United Kingdom goods 7 and produce worth 43,000,000 pounds; in i934 file figure was 50,500,000 pounds, an increase of 17 per cent. In I932 Britain exported to Canada l .1934- ~ 17,500,000 pounds worth of goods. This in- creased 2o per cent. to 21,000,000 pounds in Mr. KING, on his last visit to London, was disappointed in his hopes of finding the British people antagonistic t0 the Ottawa agreements and as a consequence he said very little about i them in his election campaign, But his egotism '_ will not let him rest until he has undone the i,‘ age of the occasion to lecture the members in a 5 mild way on the amenities of debate. He sug- 1. work which his predecessor, Premier BENNETT, achieved at the Imperial Conference. Set Speeches Objectionable On being re-elected Speaker 0f the British House of Commons for a fourth term the other day, Captain EDWARD A. Frrznov took advant- "gested that as the members follow one another eistlIu-Isshu eranmmncmw-m sum-lam» t... ,. - they should confine themselves to delivering ar- _guments for or against the proposal before the House. He regretted the tendency in recent sessions for debates to consist of a series of set SPCCCIIES. He felt that if that custom once be- comes firmly established interest in theprocced- ings of the Chamber will suffer. This is advice, suggests an exchange. which should be gravely taken t0 heart by members of the Canadian House of Commons, and of the several Pro- . vincial Legislatures. Session after session the pages 0f Hansard at Ottawa are filled with long- winded speeches by members who merely recite prepared orations which they will later circu- late throughout their own constituencies as _a proof 0f their industry in Parliament._ Public mcn in the Old Country long ago acquired the art of condensed speeches, and for the most part members of the House of Commons when ad- dressing their fellows in the Chamber adhere closely to the subject under debate. Judging from Captain Frrnofs cautionary remarks some of them have shown some inclination to follow the bad precedent established in this country.
