The Balkan Problem Rumanizfs zisstirziiice to the Allies that it will not increase its oil shipments to Germany and that it iritciids to retain the ties linking lt to France and tireat Britain is reassuring news. The fact remains, however, that Runiatiia is iii a precarious position, and that Nazi pressure may agaiiyforce a change of policy upon King Carol. l-ltiiiiztiiiai was an Anglo-French ally in the last ivttr, ivas oier-rtiii by Germany and received as its reward at the Peace Conference a. large part of the territories 0f Hungary (Trau- .\_\'l\‘."tllilll the Dohrtidja on its southeastern corner from the beaten Bulgaria, and Bess- arahia in the northwest, taken from Russia which was then iii the first grip of the Bol- shevist revolution. Not one of these three coun- tries lias abandoned its claims to the lost terri- tory, and, in addition, Rtimania holds the most valuable source of oil iii Europe outside Rus- sia, the commodity which, above all, Germany lacks. Rumauia called a conference last week of her Balkin neighbors, jugoslavia, Turltey and Greece, and it was folloiviiig this conference that she is rcportcd to have informed the Allies that the (piota of approximately 130,000 tons of oil a month, established under the German- Rumatiiau trade accord, will not be exceeded. There were reasons for apprehensions to the contrary as a result of the establishment of government control over Romanian petroleum production, including British oil company pos- sessions. The chief concern of France and Britain, apart from the Rumaiiian nil question, is to keep the war from spreading into the Mediterranean, where a joint Russo-German advance would have serious complications. Favorable Business Report In its current business summary the Bank of Montreal cites many evidences to show that fears regarding the dislocation of Canada’s ex- port trade by the war have so far been unjusti- fied. Domestic exports in December, at $101,- 021,000, were nearly 47 per cent higher than in December, 1938, and about $4,000,000 higher than in November, 1939. For the four months elapsed siiicc the tiutbrcalc of war, the value of Canada's fltllllf'\'llt.‘ expoi'ts,$370,078.000 was act- ually 1,..-| per cent higher than the figure for the parallel period of 1938. Business in general, als'o, has shoivn expansion, its physical volume in the last quarter of 103i) reaching a higher point than at any tiiiic since the early part of I929. The npiiiiiiig weeks of 1940 have found the activity in both export and domestic fields well niaiiitziiiied. In rural districts, and parti- cularly iii the \\'cst, stnrekeepers arc finding litisiness stibstztiitially better than last winter as the result of an increase of nearly l0 per cent in rural purchasing power. December Federal revenues were by far the best in the second half of 1939, namely, $44,081,- 401. which represented an increase of more than $7,500,000 river the figure for December, 1938 -$3(i..i13.477 —— but expenditures, swollen by war commitments, were tip t0 $50,032,559 as compared irith $31,427,186 in December, 1938. For the first three-quarters of the current fiscal vear. ended December 3f, the aggregate revenues totalh-rl $3of<_7g4,671 as compared with $394,- 821,727; while xpemlitures totalled $472401.- 732 .1: eoinpriretl vitli $_‘~lf'i6.t)23.225. . \vllole_s;tlv and retail trade in the lllziritinie Provinces his been generally satisfactory. ll"? volume of business being well over that of a year ago, with collections fair to good. Clirist- mu sales were the highest in many yum STIOW." t?’ ing increases varying from 5% ‘to 50% over the previous year. Woods operations have pro- gressed favourably, the season's cut being esti- mated at approximately 50% over last year's. Improvement in demand for lumber and pulp- wood is in evidence. Uiifavourable weather has interfered with fishing operations and catches during December were poor. Fresh and dried fish have been iii fair demand. Spring mackerel has moved iii steady volume, but the lobster mar- ket remains dull. Priccs have been steady. Fox pelts have been in good demand but prices are unsatisfactory. General industrial activity shows a gain over last year. Coal raised in Nova Sco- tia during December totalled 485,043 tons com- pared with 312,439 tons in 1938. The potato market has shmvii little activity; growers are holding for better prices. Shipment of fresh apples continues sloiv, with prices satisfactory. - EDITORIAL.

II i Ill Ii Before long there will be so many cures for certain forms of insanity that the medical ad- viser will be at a loss ivliich to choose. Use of electric shock treatment for mentally sick pati- ciits is the latest to be announced to the medical world by Dr. Lothar Kalinowsky, of Rome, through a report to the London medical journal Lancet. The treatment is like the now widely used insulin and mctrazol shock treatments. In- stead of injecting either of these shock-induc- ing drugs, an electric current is passed through the patient's head to induce the fits, or convul- sions, which restorc the patient to sanity, for a time at least. The electric shock treatment is said to be much easier on the patient, and also on the nurses and attendants, than the metfazo] or cardiazol shock treatments. Nor is there any danger from the amount of current used to in- duce the fits. Electrodes are put on both sides of the patients forehead, animal studies having shown that the temples are the best place for the treatment. Currents of seventy to I10 volts and 300 to 600 iiiilliamperes are generally need- ed to produce fits. The shock is given for one- tcnth of a second. v i: a u Discussing editorially the effect upon United States trade with Great llritain as a result 0f (be war, The New York Times said the United State is discovering with a vengeance that “neu- trality and isolation cannot protect 115 from (he ilislocation that war inevitably brings."
