A CENTRAL BANKS Home of the chic: recommendations made ln"l'ne brief presented to the Banking Commission on behalf of the Provincial Government, the Boards of Trndv and farm organiza- tions of Prince Edward Island was for the establishment of a Central Bank. In this connection it is in- teresting to note reference to the piurpoce of such banks in the current number of Queens Quarterly. The cuticle is one of a series published by the Dcpartmcnt of Political and Economic Science of Queen's Unl- yerslty. The writrrs state that many of the claims made on behalf of a central bank tn Canada rest on a misconccpllon of the power and functions of such an institution. It would not prcvvnt bunk failures neither would it necessarily provide more adequate funds for the financ- ing of agriculture or of any other industry than at present. While at times it would make credit more plentiful, at other times it would be the duty of such u bank to restrict credit. To c. very considerable ex- tent the functions and operations 0f a. central bunk are entirely out- side the scope of commercial banks, and a central bank in Canada need affect scarcely at all the ordinary operations of the commercial bank- ing system nor the relations of the bankers with their customers. The prime duty of n. central bank is to control the business of redlscount- ‘lng for the mmmcrclnl banks in or- ‘uer to achieve its monetary policy- [indlrectly this control of credit ex- ‘erclses a. control over the price level rivlthin the country and over the for- kign exchanges.

' EDITORIAL NOTES "It is," says the Toronto Telegram, "a simple fact, which many Can- adians apparently have overlooked while listening to the ballyhoo that has been a major feature of the U. S. drive against depression, that Canada is progressing toward re- covery aa rapidly as any country in the world and more rapidly than most. Furthermore, this recovery is of a. more balanced order than that which is being achieved in the Uni- ted States, where prices, production and payrolls are fLr from being in equilibrium, and it has been gained without using artificial and danger- ous economic stimulants." An analysis of the provincial election returns in Nova. Scotta. has been made by the Moncwn ‘limes, which finds that Liberals polled in tho asgregatc 131,500 votes, 0on- servatives. 115,200 and other parties 5,535. Thus of the total vote the Liberals polled under 53 pcr cent. and the Conservatives just over 46 per sent, so that a change of sev- en votea in the hundred would re- verse thc result.

Japan's Problem (Vancouver Province) I Vital statistics from Japan show an increasing birth rate and a. de-Y creasing death rate. The birth rate’ ‘in 1932 was 32.92 per thousand of §populatlon. The death rate was 717.72 per thousand. The net in- lcnase, it will be seen, was slightly over i5 per thousand of populationp or 15,000 per million. For Japarfsl 65,000,000 the increase would be_ about 975,000, or just under a mil-E lion. Japan has more people now than she can properly support in her poor and mountainous country, and with population growing at the rate of a. million a. year, her troubU les promise to increase. In the good old days, when the pressure of population became too great, emf- gratlon offered an outlet, and, dur- ing many centuries, wave after wave swept from Asia into Europe. Then Europe became congested and the tide swept on to America. Great Britain, following the in- dustrial revolution, found a. new means of caring for an increased population, She turned her island into a worshop, brought raw ma- terials from the ends of the earth, used her 1mm and coal to turn them into finished products and exported them again. Out of the profits, of manufacturing, mer- chandlnng and carrying, she fed herself and built up credit balances abroad. But she pretty well de- strayed her agriculture. Japan has tried emigration as a means of relieving the pressure of population. But door after door has been closed to her. There arc still opportunities in south Am- erica, but not for anything like a million people a. year. There has been emigration to Fonnosa, to Korea, to Manchuria, to the cities of the China coast. But the amount- of emigration possible i0 these areas is limited. Most of them are densely populated as it is. As ad- ministrators or merchants, the Japanese can exist there. But they can not compete with Koreans or Chinese, whose standard of living is appreciably lower than that of the Japanese. Manchuria. is the only region really open to the Japanese and they do not like Manchurla. because its winters are cold, and its brown plains and dull sky seem too vast and hostile. imitating Great Britain, Japan has also tried the expedient of in- dustrializlng herself. She has, or had, some hope of becoming the workshop of the Orient, and, in a measure, of the world. she has the advantage of s. vast rcss-rvoir of cheap and adaptable labor, and in the pasty few years she has shown what she can do by throwing her cotton into China. and India and her electrical goods evcn over the American tariff walls. It. was ns a great source of raw mninrlnls and a vast. potential market, not as a field for colonization, that she sought control of lvfnnchuria. But in her industrialization, as in her imperialism, Japan started late. When she began reaching out her hand to the Asiatic mainland, she found the day of imperial ex- pansion had passed and that the other nations looked uskancg at her ambitions. So, too, she had barely got her programme of in- dustrfalfsm well under way when the era. of economic nationalism opened and she found herself faced with tariff walls. With every million added to her population, Japan's problem be- comes more acute, and, so far, there fa no solution in sight, 1t is her relatively low standard of liv- ing that gives her her advantage in foreign trade and that is the . name blessed.

However one of the frequent caus- es of bad dreams and one that is OIIAILOITITOWN, P. l. l overlooked, is that waste products remain too long in the system and act as a poison in the blood. It is this poison that often causes bad dreams. Dr. B. Kalter, Munich, was able to give help to a number of nervous patients afflicted with bad dreams by making sure that these wastes were thrown out of the body. The wastsa usually accumulate by eating more food than tiic body needs. By the use of medicines such as Epsom salts which remove wastes not only from the large intestine but from the blood also, dreams are pre- vented in many cases. By the simple method of doing some hard physical work such u sawing wood, shovellingl sand, par- spiratlon is induced, the bowels move regularly, excess wastes are removed and no bad dreams occur. This method of hard physical ex- ercise, instead of complete rest, has cured many "mental" cases. " A business man had a noiics an his door: "Burglarsl ‘This door is fitted with electric alarms.
