Notes
THE BRAIT SYSTEM
The Bratt System of Sweden was
instituted in 1912. Under it the
country is divided into districts and
mmwpoly of sale of spirits is given
in' each dstrlct to s zrouo of clu-
Zen-S who asree to limit their prot-
its. A. mot-book or permit is issued
to citizens over 21 years of ago.
‘Beer is sold without e permit.
Three results have developed and
are now outstanding, and strange
W SKY (hae results are already
paralleled under Government Bale
in Canada. The sales of spirits
have increased under the system.
the liermiis show that the number
ol’ drinkers has increased the num-
ber of women drinkers has also ln-
creased.
Dr. Karl Ekman, Prime Minister,
iums up 'the results as follows:
The Brett System fosters and
s,.\'r.ads the drink habit instead of
sillw-'vssillc lt." (Tempennce Ad-
vocate).

THE EXPLOSION THAT
PROVED A SQUIB
The attempt in the House of
Commons, sponsored -by Col. Syd-
ney Robinson, member for West
Essex, to repeal the amendment to
the Export Act; which forbids ex-
port of liquor to a prohibition coun-
try, ended in a complete fiasco. Col.
Robl.nscm alone spoke to the ques-
tion. When it was put he was al-
most alone in its support. “In s.
silence so deep that the death rat-
tle could almost be heard across the
Commons' floor," to quote the per-
liamentary correspondent of the
Mau and Empire. the motion was
killed.
Col. Robinson stressed the loss of
revenue he cited the ungracious
treatment oi commuters at the
border, and the assumed failure of
the measure to restrict the flow ol'
Canadian liquor to the United
States; but he forgot, to remind the
House that Csnada has been de-
livered from the invasion of cor-
ruptlonists and cutthroats with
their demoralizing influences along
our borders.
The treatment; afforded his m0t-
lon by the House was in accord
with the general sense of the
County, and for the rest- of it
evidences the fact that when the
liquor question is d\‘l»€8¢d into “W
open where public attention is
focussed upon it. few public men
are willing to associate themselves
with the disreputable business.

The address of Sir George F06t~

stirring and forceful statements.

‘Gulf Stream Study
Reveals Influence
On Northern Clime
BTOCKHOLM. Sweden, Dec. 18
-Careful observations of the Gulf
stream for s period of years have
revealed its remarkable influence
upon the climatic conditions in
Northem Europe. particularly in
Norway and Sweden. The head
of the meteorological hydrograph-
icsl institute in Stockholm. J. W.
Sandstroem. in a recent interview
explains the 'cause o`i this inter-
esting phendmsnapand how it ac-
tually is possible to predict wea-
ther conditions, warm or cold sum-
mers and winters, practically
three years in advance, due to the
varying temperature of the Gulf
Stream.
When in the summer of 1928
infomation was received from
the other side of the Atlantic that
the water of the Gulf Stream was
unusually warm, it was observed
during the next winter that this
warm water had reached the
Southern point of Iceland causing
a low pressure condition., while n
high atmospheric pressure was
observed over Northern Russia ac-
ccmpanled` by clear, cold weather.
The same winter also was one of
the coldest in the annals of Swc~
den. holding the country ice-
bound for an` unusually long per-
iod.
The following summer, in 1929.
the warm water belt had moved

North of Iceland, bringing with it
the some low pressure conditions.
Now thc Southerly winds from
Spain and the Azores brought
their warmth to Sweden directly.
causing in this country one of the
wanncst of winters on record. The
third summer the warm water
current had reached the North
Arctic Sea north of Norway. That
year a heavy melting process was
observed at the edge of the great
Polar ice region, making possible
the historic recovery of the re-
mains of the Andrea expedition.
The westerly winds caused a warm
autumn that year, but the warm
water current moved North and
East towards the Spltzbergen and
Franz Joscplfs Land bringing with
li the low pressure atmosphere.
The wind conseqqucntly turned
morn and more and finally be-
cunw north-westerly, bringing the
c-hilly nil- of lcc-covered Greenland
lo swf-rlen. The spring and sum-
mer of i931. were, therefore, unus-
\n\1l_v cold and unpleasant.
