A few weeks ago, whet: the matter was first reported, The Times urged that these conditions should be cleaned up, if for no other reason than for that of the interests of the health of the community. It is almost incredible to learn that there are be- tween 200 and 300 such dwellings in this city, and that there are from 1,000 to 1,200 persons living in them. It is no credit to the city that this should be going-on in a progressive and go-ahead community like Oshawa, and while, as one citizen said in a letter to the editor recently, sometimes conditions of long' periods of unemployment cause men to live in places of this kind, yet it is hard to understand why these places should 'ever be rented as dwellings. The board of health having made its decision, no time should be lost in acting upon it, In some cities, board of health orders are made only to be ignored, "and it would be a disgrace should anything like that happen here. OSHAWA'S FIRST BOATS LAUNCHED Today is something of a red letter day in the his- 'tory 'of Oshawa, for this afternocn the first boats built in this city are to be launched. It is a pity, of course, that these boats, built by the Williams Piano Company of this city in the form of outboard motor boats, should have to go to Whitby to be launched, but that is only one of the penalties which the city has to pay for the apathy of successive governments towards the needs of its harbour. Today's launching, which is being attended by civic officials and other prominent citizens of Oshawa, marks a step forward in the devclopment of the city, for as its industries go ahead, so does the city ad- vance in its prosperity, Thus the event becomes an important function, one which, it is hoped, will be the forerunner of many more, and the citizens. gencrally / will join with The Times in expressing the hope that the day will not be far distant when it will be pos- sible to have these launchings in the Oshawa harbour; instead of at the adjoining port of Whitby. { "INTERDEPENDENCE" "Interdependence is both the essence and the ob- ject of the League; it explains the work and justifies the aims, if \ The English language might be likened in many ways to the population of a progressive country, It has a birth rate and a death rate; plagues and dis- eases; an aristocracy of ancient and "snooty" fam- ilies, certain short-lived plutocrats, and a 'host of horny-handed workers. Words come into the language and, like all new- comers, they must fight hard to be accepted by so- ciety. They become'archiac, fade and. die, and are lost in the limbo of a dictionary's foot notes. Popu- larity will so lionize words and phrases that they become «insufferable with conceit, and finally get shop-worn, infected, and diseased." Then sonorous sentences, impressive phrases and terms of learned weight endure in splendid isolation, sneering at vul- gar upstart slang, some of whose progeny may even- tually. attain respectability. Finally 'there is. the great sub-stratum or nouns and verbs and sundry parts of speech, humble and hard worked, whose an- cestry is really older and 'less diluted than that of their grandiloquent relations. ' os "Wokds, good and bad, come and go. The latest, newly. risen from obscurity where it may for all we know have existed for a long time, is "interdepen- dence." The word is of .course a bit of a hybrid, and regretably long; but it packs a world of meaning into its five syllables. It is used largely in connection with the League of Nations; the dependence of one nation upon another being aptly styled "interdependence." Jt is a reasonable and worthy thought; one that we have. ever sought to inculcate into the minds of men. The gospel of unity, and of the interdependence of the provinces of Canada and of the parts of the Em- pire, is one to be hearkened to by parochially minded brethren. It is altogether desirable and praiseworthy, moreover, that the next logical stop be taken, at least in spirit, and the outlook broadened to include civili- zation, and thc gospel extended to show the vital interpendence of the nations of the world. "Interdependence," too, is a word made familiar by its usc as the name of the organ of the League of Nations Society in Canada. This has already under able editorship won high place for itself in this coun- try and when the Society makes its appeal for more members on "League of Nations Day," April 16th, its "I, the unkind, ungrateful? "circulation among Canadians' is likely to be largely increased. . To the word; to the amicable relationship it implies nationally, imperially, and universally; and to the re- view bearing the name~we extend encouragement and good wishes. 4 AN ELUSIVE FUGITIVE The exploits of Orval Shaw, escaped prisoner, or 'rather of the police officers who have so far wasted a tremendous amount of energy in their unsuccessful attempts to ¢apture him, are attracting much atten- tion in the newspapers. So elusive has Shaw proved to be that the matter is becoming lpcked on as some- thing akin to a joke, and one Toronto' broker is re- ported to have been offering odds of ten to one that . the police could not catch him. Shaw himself. must be enjoying 'the situation im- mensely, Probably he is leading the police into dif- ficulties out of sheer bravado; rather than out of a criminal spirit. Indeed, while he has been charac- terized as a desperate. criminal, there had been noth- ing in his record of offences of a desperate natfire, excepting his escape from the Chatham Jail. The offences which he has committed have all been, in the form of petty thefts from farmhouses, from which he has stolen food and clothing, or thefts of automo- biles which he used to clude his pursuers. True, he has a long list of such offences against him, but in no case has he shown anything to justify classing 'him' as a desperado, Rather is he one of the outcasts: of soviety, friendless and: homeless, find- ing substance where it was most easily obtained, But, of course, he has broken the law, and is a fugitive of justice, and itis the duty of the police to run him to earth, Orders have been issued 'that he must be captured at all costs, but the experiences of the police so far have been such as to indicate that it will be easier to give these orders than to carry them out. CANADIAN STANDARDS OF LIVING A striking editorial appeared in a recent, issue of the St. Marys' Journal-Argus under the caption, "Are Canadians Living on Too Grand a Scale.' : The very title of the editorial is suggestive, since 'it sug- gests that the people of this country are too much inclined to extravagant living, There may be a modicum of truth in that sugges- tion, and it may be true that there is too great a tendency on the part of Canadians to spend almost as freely as they earn. On the other hand, the steady and substantial increase in bank deposits would in- dicate that, while they are spending, they are, saving . too. Probably the St. Marys editor was inspired to write his editorial by seeing signs of affluence on every side of him, and then reading of conditions of destitution which éxist in other countries, Canada is fortunate in that high living standards have been maintained in this country, and that conditions have progressed to such an extent that all classes of the people are able to live on a much better scale than are similar classes in the older countries of Europe. EDITORIAL NOTES There is an agitation urging that business prin- ciples be put into agriculture. But what farmer could get along by starting work at nine in the morning and quitting at four in the afternoon. A Toronto. grand jury urged that more attention "be paid by motorists to the rights of pedestrians. Some of the motorists, however, will first have to learn what the rights of pedestrians are. The mayor of Toronto says that the Queen City will in time become the New York of Canada. Surely Toronto is bad enough mow without a suggestion like that. Mayors have been kicked out of office many a time for much less than a statement of that kind. "Shop at Home' is a mighty good slogan for this community, particularly when it is the best shopping centre for miles around, says the St. © Catharines Standard of the city in which ft is - published. . Oshawa, bod The same goes in double measure for oo « Other Editors' Comment - BRITAIN'S FUTURE. (London Daily Express) As a nation we have endured discouragements dur- ing the post-war period that might have soured the spirit and weakened the fibre of any people. But Great Britain is winning through. The pessimists are still at work--with them there is no unemployment-- but the skill of our workmen and the courage of our' industrialists are proving that the great days of Bri- tain lie as much ahead as in the past. Those are the basic facts. They need the genius of leadership to see that they constitute a prophecy and not a dream. 'WANTON WASTE (From the Spectator London) We are today wasting valuable national assets at the rate of 40,000,000 tons a year merely because an open fire "looks cheerful." Nor is this more than a fraction of our waste. Probably we could convert at least another 130,000,000 tons of coal into its constitu- ents before using it as industrial fuel, In the smoke of all this burning we dissipate an immense treasure into thin air. Every London fog we have tasted this year was full of stuff that should have worked our gas ranges and motor cars instead of irritating our bron- chial tubes; it was metter in the wrong place, dirt in- stead of heat and power, and it choked the usual number of citizens to death instead of making them omelettes or carrying them to the. seaside. - = Bits of Verse ~» - LOVE Love bade me welcome; yet my soul drew back, Guilty of dust and sin.

Barton, M.D. BORROWING OXYGEN FRO! / YOUR TISSUES You have run fora car and although you did not' apparently get out of breath while you were running, after you reach it you find yourself almost gasping for breath. After a minute or two you find that your breathing is normal again. Now, as you know, the oxygen you take into the lungs purifies the blood so that the blood can continue to be used. And so you breathe in enough oxygen to just nicely keep the blood purified, and this blood goes to the muscles and Supplies them with oxygen. 'Even when the muscle is at rest it is creating energy which is caused by the burning up of this oxygen, Thus while you are asleep you still need to breathe. to take in enough oxygen to keep things going. If you are doing light work which permits you to sit down, you use up a little more oxygen than when you are lying down. ' If you walk you need more, and if you run you need still more. : Now it is possible for anyone that is used to it, to walk practically all day, and some men have been known to run for hours at a time. This means then that they are asking the lungs to pump in as much as ten times the amount of oxygen as when they are resting. Drs. Henderson and Haggard of Yale University, from a study of the crew representing the United States at the Olympic games in 1924, tell us that in a race of 1 1/3 miles, these men expended from thirteen to twenty times the energy that is ex- pended by the body under normal restful conditions. Now this means that training will give you the ability to do this much extra work when needed. And another point they re- cord is that this tremendous amount of work required from thirty to sixty percent more oxygen than the lungs breathed in. Now where did they get this SxyEen if the lungs did not breathe it in? They simply took it from the mus- cles and tissues of the Body for the time being, or as Drs. Henderson and Haggard put it, they drew heay- ily on their oxygen credit, and were in debt to the extent of 4 to 8 quarts, and this deficit is repaid by the rapid breathing that continues after the exertion is over, The thought then is that training will not only increase your ability to continue work longer and harder, but lengthens and strengthens the oxygen credit of the body.

Wilson, editor and publisher of the Port Hope Evening Guide, a Lib eral paper for nearly a century, has announced that in future the Evening Guide will be conducted as an Independent town newspaper. The Evening Guide has been in ex- istence since 1873 and the Weekly Guide was founded in 1831. Mr, Wilson said in part: "Do any of our readers know of a lawyer who would not accept a brief, or a doe- tor a patient, because he was a Lib eral or a Tory as the case might be? A mechanic, manuacturer or agent, does not inquire the politic al leanings of a customer, so long as the color of money is apparent. "An undertaker might be 'tickl- ed to death' if' called on to bury an opponent, even if his profes- sional demeanor would never be- tray his feelings. Even a churca receives its support from all po- litical parties and a clergyman will as earnestly exort a Liberal or a Conservative to turn from his evil ways and repent of sin. A church or a society run on party lines would be a curse rather than a blessing. The Guide is the source from which we derive funds to buy our groceries, dry goods and all supplies and services. Therefore is it fair that we should decline business from any party, sect or in- dividual provided, of course, the cash is forthcoming? Why should a newspaper be the one and only example of business foolishness?" ire at Belleville Belleville--The fire brigade was given a run early yesterday morning to the top of West Bridge street where an unused . roughcast house owned by William Orr was afire.

And the GERMAN MOVETO BROADEN AVIATION Re -- ; Aerial Concern and Steam- 3 5.3 ship Companies Reach Agreement Berlin, April 6.--Germany will take further steps this month to enhance her position in trans-At- lantic aviation through the forma- tion of a joint committee repre- sentative of civil aviation and old established trang-oceanic steamship lines, it was disclosed recently. The Lufthansa Company, on the one hand, will represent the bulk of Germany's civil aviation, while the big shipping concerns will in- clude such corporations as the Hamburg American, North Ger- man Lloyd and Hamburg South American lines: The Lufthansa Corporation, which receives sub- stantial Government 'subsidies, and the large shipping corporations thus will establish the foundation for the closest co-operation among themselves for the pushing of the trans-Atlantic air service, The interests have abandoned the project of establishing a joint company with several million marks capitalization, partly be- cause the liquid funds for such a project were not available, and partly because of the inability 1u agree as to whether the Lufthansa Corporation or the shipping 'cone cerns were to wield control of such a corporation. The rate at which Germany's trans-oceanic aeronautic plans are to be realized dépends largely upon the fate of the Government's 52,- 000,000-mark (about $12,376,000) air budget now before the Reich- stag. The budget provides for ap- proxintately 4,000,000 marks (about $952,000) for development in 1929 of long distance routes, primarily across the Atlantic ocean. 4 Besides, Dr. Hugo Eckner's dl- rigible flights, including two to the United States and return in May and June, and around the werld in August, several other German schemes for trans-Atlantic flights this' year are now maturing. The Lufthansa Company in June and July expects to use a new tri- motored Rohrbach Romar type sea- plane, with a 4,000 kilometer (2,- 484 miles) radius for a flight from the Baltic port of Travenmunde to the coast of France; Seville, Spain: the Canary Islands; Cape Verde, on the coast of Africa; Fernando de Noronha, an island 125 miles east of Brazil: Natal and Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and perhaps Bu- FOR FOREIGN TRADE enos Aires, Argentina.
