Alter hrs ele- vation to the peerage in I929 his wile EXP"? sed a desire to continue to be known o5 MP5- Sydney Webb. The contribution of the Webbs to the economic thought of their generation was very largely a joint affair and the names of husband and wile, Beatrice and Sidney Webb. were for years linked together. _ Sidney Webb became chairman of the Brit- ish Labor Party in I922 and when Labor first came to power two years later he was given o cabinet position as President of the Board of Tracie. In the second Labor ministry he was secretary far Dominions and Colonies. When the Labor government was dissolved in I931’ and the National Government followed, he published a criticism of Ramsay MacDonald's handling of his cabinet, complaining the Prime Minister l-ad not found the time or the energy for friend- ly intercourse with members of his own party or even with his ministerial colleagues. _ It was during Webb's last years in the Civil Service that with his wile he took a share in forming the Fabian Society. One of their early companions in this venture was Bernard Shaw, who seems_saon to have tired of attending to matters of detail, although energetic enough in street-corner exposition. The aim of the Webbs was to produce a Socialistic policy for Great Britain of a municipal or domestic kind. "Draw- ing-room Socialism" it was called by comrades who deemed themselves of sterner mettle. However, they attracted all manner of peo- ple to their house. Statesmen like Arthur Bal- four, R. B. Haldane and David Lloyd George hobnobbed at the Webbs’ with workers in the slums, with poets and with artists. The educative effect of this intellectual campaign was for-reaching. The establishmen‘ of a social bureaucracy, though, was a prospect which even the warmest admirers of the Webbs were unable to contemplate with equanimity. In the years which followed Mrs. Webb's own ideas suffered a change,‘ for she become candidly critical of the "dole" system, and expressed her belief that unemployment insurance should be left largely to the Trades Unions. The joint literary output of the Webbs was prodigious. They collaborated in voluminous works upon trades unionism, local government, the Poor Law and the co-operative movement. In I9l3 Mr. Webb founded a weekly review, "The New Statesman," which was later meroed with "The Nation." WEDNESDAY, ocronszn i5. lluge Adverse Balance An Ottawa dispatch says that the Domin- ion Government is studying with deep concern the adverse trade balance which is soaring against Canada in its dealings with the United States. The trgures for the first 8 months of this fiscal year disclose a balance against us amounting to $644,500,000. In August alone it was $71,600,- 000, and if there is no marked change in the trend during the next 4 months, Canada's pur- chases and imports from the United States will have a value of at least $900,000,000 over and above that of our exports to that country for the whole of I947. Some idea of the seriousness of the situa- ticn may be obtained from the fact that the adverse balance is rutthing at a rate more than 5 times as great as in I946, when it amounted to $147,800,000 for the calendar year. It is instructive to compare these records with those of past years. The balance against Canada in its commercial transactions with the United States during the I935-to-l939 period had av- eraoed only $87,000,000 per year. In I942 it had risen to $408,100,000, but dropped to $275,- 000,00 in I943. ln I944 it had diminished to $ll4,700,000, while in I945 the balance tipped’ in Canada's favor to the extent of $25,000,000. The $900,000,000 debit against Canada this rear on this account will be partly offset by sev- eral large credit items. Canada's dealings with Britain and the rest of the Commonwealth show I substantial balance in our favor, and it is esti- mated that we shall receive $350,000,000 in American currency from the United Kingdom on account this year. Tourist traffic is estimated to have netted the Dominion $50,000,000 this season. We have also sold $00,000,000 worth of gold to the United States, or will have done so by the end of I947. We shall also have a favorable balance on our trading with European is to be obtained between Canaian and Arn- erican dollars an the exchange market. But borrowing is' only a temporary expedient,—a postponement of the reckoning. There can be only one sure and dependable solution of the problem. Canada must step up its production and its exports, while at the some time restrict- ing its purchases abroad to necessities which canrat be produced at hcme. - EDITORIAL NOTES — Taking the British announcement of its in- tention to withdraw from Palestine as o sign of weakness, livc Arab states are now ready to throw their armed forces into that troubled land.

" i t I I Britain's National Coal Board has placed orders for $36 million worth of machinery as a firs! instalment ‘in the extensive programme of mines modernization. lt is hoped that by June of next year the pits will have been provided withznearly I500 new coal cutters, three thous- and belt conveyors, about I200 other conveyors and some cutter loaders. The first part of the modernization scheme includes also a special programme for new underground locomotives, 250 of which will be installed by lune, I949. I I i "k A new French formula: I00 practical talks, without lectures, without waste of time, without note-taking-—this is what the "Entretiensi de Bicha" (Bichat Talks) will offer as a method of learning up-to-date clinical and therapeutic methods. The overworked practitioner, the for- eign doctor on a short visit to France, the stu- dent who is just starting in practice have no time ta listen to all the long lectures given in their field. They want to get information quickly on many subjects, to ask questions and receiv: authoritative answers. In the United States a practical method of solving this prob- lem has been found and if is on the American model that Professors Guy-Larache and L. Jus- tin-Besanoon have organized the "talks" to be held at the bichat Hospital October I9 to 22, with the cooperation of a large number of their COIIEOQUBS. A book in which the talks will be summarized and classified will be issued before the meetings, so that no notes need be taken. An urgent need in Britain's production drive is for women to return to industry. In Lancashire, many schemes are being thought out to encourage them to work in the cotton mills. Skilled operatives, mainly married wo- mer. previously employed in the industry, are and Latin American countries, which will enable us to reduce by another $50,000,000 the ad- verse balance with the United States.

But even at that there will still be a balance somewhere between $300,- 000,000 and $400,000,000 Canada must pay to the United States to adjust its accounts with that country for the present fiscal year. No intimation hos yet been given by the Dominion Government as to how this huge dif- ferrntial is to be settled. It is suggests how- ovar, by officials close to the Finance part- rnent at Ottawa, that the Canadian Govern- rnsnt may barrow SSDIIMILNO from the United Stem to adjust the account. Some such or- rengenieet will obviously be necessary if parity problem, and two factories in Liverpool have whut they think is the answer. Under their scheme, store owners bring groceries to the fac- ytaries. Food in short supply sells out quickly, and workers shopping at the end of the day find »it hard to get the little extras that liven up their ‘meals. $0 in this way, the women can buy what thev want during the lunch hour. Then they leave their shopping bags in a room provided for the purpose and collect them on their way home.

It really consists of two stare, a giant red member 4.50 times the diameter of the sun, and a much smaller, terriflcally hot, blue globe that seems to consist. mainly on helium.
