(in advance) The‘ Ottawa Conference According to our local contemporary, the estion 0f scrapping the British North America as an Imperial-statute did not come up at recent Dominion-Provincial Conference. _~ If this statement is c0rrect—and we pre- me, notwithstanding the “strict secrecy” of e proceedings that it is made on the authority the Premier, who attended--then it sub- tiates the shrewd guess of the Ottawa cor- pondent of the Canadian Press which ap- eared in The Guardian of March 3. \Ve quote: OTTAWA, March I—Attorney generals from- the provinces. including two p. ‘ , today esumed deliberations here under chairmanship __of Hon.

Among the thirty Liberal stalwarts who uill unlstitute the House, several are said not to see eye to eye with the Government on certain questions. At the September special scs- sion, three 0f these gentlemen, Messrs. DENNIS, Cox and McKAY, had the tcmerity to express their disagreement in no uncertain iernls. A repetition of such tactics on the part of Mr. DENNIS, now liiinister of Agriculture, is not an- ticipated; but there are others lcss favorably placed who may be inclined to take the bit in their teeth. The question that arises in this con- nfection is whether the solemn warning issued by Premier CAMPBELL to the Liberal electors of Eourth Prince, applies also to Liberal back- bencllers in the House? Wouldthey also, by kicking over the traces and refusing to vole at the dictation of the Government, be “simply reading themselves out of the Liberal party” and placing themselves in the uucnviable position of being unable to rcceive any “further recognition as Liberals"? g Surely, voting against a Government bill would be an offence at least as grave as voting against a Government candidate! If one crime is deserving of political excommunication, why nut the 'ofhcr? “Making the punishment fit the crime" is an old practice among dictators, famil- iar to readers of “The Mikado". Its introduction in the Legislature as a means of disciplining recalcitrant members would be all interesting ex- periment. It would, of course, be necessary i0 frame an elaborate scale _of penalties, ranging, for example, all the way from mild rebuke i0!’ any inadvertent reference to brewery stallions, to summary execution in cases of flagrant dis- obedience or mutiny. These penalties would have to be balanced by official recognition of some kind for meritorious conduct. 'i‘hus the ‘fgood boys" of the House would be encouraged in well-doing, while the naughty ones would be ‘imade to feel the weight 0t‘ the schoolmaster} ferule. Even if the experiment failed to bring all the members to heel, and fell short of the suc- attending similar efforts by Hirtaa. STAN" '|.nd Mussoum, it would at least be a unique. . demonstration lender British democracy.

During these developments nlost of the bleeding was done by those countries to whom Germany owed reparations and indemllities, and the greatest part of it was done by Britain. Still further to help Gennany, France, in i935, relinquished her hold on the Saar territory, on the understanding that for sonle years it was to remain a demilitarized area, And during this time Germany had been secretly violating the Versailles Treaty and building up a new army. Germany‘ left the League for her own purposes, indifferent to the effect her action might have on the security of Europe. Now she repudiates her pledge to keep the Rhineland unfortified. Her_ Financial Minister, has repeatedly pleaded Ger- many's inability to pay her foreign creditors. And his pleas and Hli-Lalfs complaints of “bleeding white" ill assort with the imposing growth of Germany's air, land and sea forces, and with the Nazi Party's repeated assertions of the return to prosperity which the country is enjoying under Hitlerism.

At first thought, this would indicate the near extinction of what was once a great male institution. But it must not e forgotten that many a nightshirt is made. in _ the home, while pyjamas are mostly purchased. Probably a washday census over the whole D0- minion would prove that the nightshirt is holding its own much better than the figures here quoted toaliubt Ml!!!)n00.00010- would indicate. 3K 5K Canadals total trade in i935, merchandise only, was $1,292,667,00o.‘ Domestic exports tot- alled $729,294,0oo, imports $550,314,000. and rc-exports $13,059,000. The proportion of Can- adian exports which went to British Empire countries was 51.8 p.c. and to foreign countries 48 p.c.; to the United Kingdom 41.6 p.c. and to the United States 36.5 p.c. The proportion of imports which came from British Empire coun- tries in 1935 was 31.6 per cent and from foreign coimtrics 68.4 p.c.‘; from the United Kingdom 21.2 p.c. and from the Iinitid States 56.8 p.c. 5K The late Admiral BEATTY was like in ap- pearance, character, ambition and success to the late Lord ROSElil-IRY.

It wouldlft cost them half as much as the Vancouver “picnic"; indeed $10,- 000,000 would sutfiic. i“ ' The peurile arguments of the Liberal de- fendantsIpf the Kmo Reciprocity Treaty is well illustrated in the following excer£t from the maiden speech of Mr. Wm. M. van, K.C., M.P. member for Saint John, Albert: “The upeeches we have heard from the Conservative aide of the House on the questionof potatoes dealt only in generalities,- They have produced no ficts and figures to show that the potato industry will be injured as a result of American potatoes being put on the free list. It is all right to talk w generalities, bullet ‘them give us the facts. We need have no fear that the Canadian potato pro- ducer will not be able to meet the competition of Anlerican producers at all time because we grow a superior potato.” There you are, our superior potatoes are to be‘ driven out of our own market by the dumping, duty-free, of so-called U.

In the general rush to blame private ownership for every ill we forget that this is the only source of in- come of governments, and that when governments take an undue proportion of earnings by the tax route, industry is crippled and the only result is further unemploy- ment.

Twenty-five years ago there was practically no way of separating tuberculous patients from other people. lo-day there are B7000 beds in 660 hospitals for tuberculosis. Twenty-five years ago e people were entirely ignorant about tuberculosis: their mental re- action being one of superstitious fear. * To-day nearly every one understands how to guard against tuberculosis. Even the size of the tuberculosis problem has shrunken, for twenty-five years ago there were in relation or proportion to the population, three times ‘as many deaths and causes of tuberculosis. as there are now." - -I am quoting Dr. H. E. Kielnsch- mlt. Director of Health Education for the National Tuberculosis As- sociation, New York. Now how is this great battle with that great scourge - tuberculosis, consumption, the white plague as it is variously called, being so suc- cessfully fought? - Just as a. fire at its beginning can often be easily put out, so also can tuberculosis be cured and. prevented if discovered early. Not onw does the present day physician ., know more about tuberculosis than was known years ago, but he has a won- derful help in the X ray, which en- ables him to tell whether or not the case is ‘ L culosls much earlier. which in turn gives the patient a better chance of'being restored to health and at the same time pre- vents his needle y infecting others. However notwi tending all this success in fighting tuberculosis these is still that group of young people, 15 to 20 years of age. in which the fight has not been very successful. And one of the main reasons for this losing fight is the refusal of our young girls, just em- erging into womanhood, to eat enough food for proper nourish- met, because they want to remain "sllm” 0r slender. Mothers and ‘physicians pointing out the danger of this trying to keep slim doesn't seem to make much impression. However the fact that theatrical producers and movie directors are not wanting thin or "skinny" girls for their productions any more may be a great boon to our teen age girls.

For the rlitler re- gime in its conduct of Germany's domestic affairs has shocked the entire civilised world by the reiin. ed savsgery with which it has’ treated and is treating the hapless Jewish minority. Fllrthermom, in its war upon the Christian Church. es it is developing a. system of per. secutlon and oppression which for calculated and ingenious brutality, leaves little to the imagination Finally in the attempt, openly m. couraged by the government to sup- plant Christianity by a combins. tion of Nietzsche, Houston, Stewart, Chamberlain and Richard Wagner it has caused many to wonder whether there is not in the regime a wide streak of genuine insanity.
