' . . He stated that the‘ Vienna chemist, _Dr. Aiois Fischer, has succeeded in making an alloy oi radium and plat- inum in which the efficiency oi the - former element is enormously en-' hanced. "Points" made oi this alloy had been tested during the past two years by the Institute Curie, and it had been found that their eflective radio active quantity was about ten tunes as great as that oi the radium tubes hitherto in use. ‘therapeutically, the alloy points had even greater superiority. as they permitted complete utilisation both oi hard and soft rays. and also oi a por- tion oi the Aiphn rays. With regard to thc practical appli- cation of this discovery, Dr. Hefner was able to submit results from his own experience. \_ He described _the treatment with alloy "points" of thirty cases oi can- cer ,eight oi chronic suppurating in- flammation of the throat, and num- erous cases oi tumours of the Klimt. tonsils, tongue, jaw and iarYflX. in which “startling? success had been - attained cven with the first applica- tion. After from ten‘ to - twenty-four hours’ radiation, tumours receded ra- pidly, and suppurating fistulas heal- ed up. Deep-seated tumours, he said, could be treated with similar success. The new method had the further sti- vantage that lt made , ssible the avoidance oi injury to the skin and the burning of healthy parts adjoin- inglthose under attack. AbOVe all. the almost complete util- isation of the entire force of radia- tion meant that much smaller quan- tities of radium were required, so that in future poorer hospitals and even private practitioners would be able to employ this valuable curative agent: i» » ‘JOHN E.

According to en- tries which had passed through the books oi’ the Department of Finance up to Dec. 31st last. Total ordinary revenue ior the nine months of the assent fiscal year stood at $345,282,- fiiilor the corresponding nine months oi the previous fiscal year. the total was 3319048329. Consequently there is an increase oi $25,434,116. -. While the figures of ordinary expenditure also show an increase when the two periods are compared, it is not as large as first oi’ revenues. Ordinary oxpenditurm of the Do- minion for the nine months ended December 3i last, according to the books oi the department was $250920.- 912. For the some period in 1927- 28, ordinal‘! expenditures reached a total of 8240.892.756, or $10,028,156 less than this year. Analysis oi the figures covering the revenue collected by the various coi- icoting branches of the government shows that a considerable ion of the advance in total reven is due to increased customs coliecti .

I British Premier Reveals Part of Election Stand DONDON, Jan. 6—Premier Stan- ley Baldwin gave to his Bewdley cou- stltuents. last night, a ioretsstc oi the government's stand in the com- ing general eiections. He saw in ei- ther a Socialist majority or a. min- ority government a menace tc British industry. “We have seen in the last two years,” he said, “what we lave never seer. in this country before. We have seen the coming together of all par- ties in industry. We have seen in- dustry, itself, beginning to overhaul the trade of the country, to exam- ine its shortcomings. to set its house in order, with a. firm determination to resume, if it has ever been lost, the supremac, of this country in the industries oi the world." The great industries were coming together, he went on, people were gradually learning that they might more eiiiciently conduct export trade and compete with foreigners. ii they lessened the amount of oom- petition at home and combined ior ' selling. "At a. time like this," Premier portant than ever. that we should remember, in the forthcoming gen- eral elections. that nothing can tend to disturb the situation in which these things make for good, more than an election which might r9- suit on the one hand, in a Socialist majority, or on the other Mild. in i3 kind of deadlock, which could only be solved by s. minority government. or by some fol-m of coalition which would cripple, for useful service, and cripple ior purposes of stability, the government of the countrlh’ The Socialist or Labor Party was still based on Socialism, he said. and its strzngth in the country was Mill which is sweeping rapidly efietive llbans oi prevention u most omcient gargie.

The women will not wear their hair long enough to harmonize with the new shades of hats. The new hats re- quire that the hair be shown under the brim, but very few women have enough hair to permit this, making iden a failure so far. And wllh the coming of larger brilns for spring the fair wearers will have to let their tresses grow still more, say the modistes almost in despair. A new device to lock a window sash at any point desired consists of a lever that engages a notched metal strip mounted on one side of a win- dow frame. l" One man can control all the movc- ments oi an electrically operated tank ship 469 feet long that has been built in Scotland for transatlantic service.
