The situation is well summed p in _the following statement made in the Hous of Com- mons this week by Mr. E. E. PERI-BY, member for Qu’Appelle: . "The reduction of duty on implerpe ~ ' from twenty-five per cent to 12y; _When ‘ first “the news came out, it was . ‘as a great accomplishment on the part - present Government. The farmers réce -. very kindly because they expected to get ‘i implements cheaper to the extent of? at twelve per cent of duty. But when the pri , ’ tame out on February 1 and they found there was an increase from $2 to about $49 per im- plement, as the case might be, this was not very favourably received. Protests have been com' in. as we know; I-have them before inc, al with quotations from the western press to t i effect that the farmers have protested. We lcno, what has taken place in this house itt the ldpt’ two days, that a committee has been appointed to investigate this increase. “The fact remains, no matter how much we h ar about free trade and about what lower tar- i fs will do, that when, on different occasions, we have had reductions in the tariff on imple- merits in Canada, every time th_is has meant an increase in price, and thattwhen we have had increases in the tariff, this has meant a reduc- tion in the price. That is something I cannot figure out, and it has not been figured out by any of the members opposite. There is a joker ' somewhere. But I would remind this House that when the leader of the Opposition was in power and we raised the duty on agricultural imple- ments cominginto Canada, he iiradc the maim- fdcturers put their name on the dotted line that fliers would not be any increase, and if the ‘esent Prime Minister had had the courage to ‘ab to the nranufartrrrers in Canada there is no ubt that there would not have been the in- eore now that they have lowered the duty." Internal Discord In Germany Hrrbeifs sudden action in violating the eaties of Versailles and Locarno by re-mili- rizing the Rhineland has caused all the greater *. rrprise because in recent months he seemed to inteht upon cultivating friendly relations with Great Britain and France, and especially with Great Britain.

Oil sanctions seemed to be threaten- ing against Italy, Italy was threatening to leave the League and was supposed to be backing out of Locarno, and FLANDIN, in return for support of the oil sanctions, had requested additional guarantees of security against German aggres- sion on the Rhine.

One of the foremost rea- sons for this peace attitude is the knowledge that only France and Great Britain have sufficient gold to finance the purchase of war materials in quantity. A paucity of gold parallels a scarcity of essential raw materials in most countries. The UnitedStates could supply munitions, but the lessons of the Great War are too recently learn- ed to permit of heavy sales to Europe on credit.

BWELLING OI‘ LOWER.

However just; as this enlargement or increase 1n slzie occurs when on the feet, so this enlargemnt should disappear after the ‘ludlvldual has been lying down for s. while. This increase 1n elm of lower legs after standing and decrease after lying down has been used by Dr. A. Krlstienaon, Stockholm, who believes that the extent of the swelling and the length of time 1t, takes for the legs to decrease to their normal size after lying down may tell whether any damage has been done or ls being clone to the heart and circulation by infection. And the amount of the swelling and the length of tine 1t takes to pass away tells just how severe 1s the infec- tlon.

In healthy pflSOHB fifteen mlu- utes of standing increased the vol- ume of the leg by one-half per cent up to two and one-half percent.
