SATURDAY, APRIL 27, 1929 PURE MILK AND HEALTH The great importance of piitity in milk supply to human health was strongly stressed at the meeting held at Brooklin, under the auspices of the Whitby township board "of health on Thursday evening. The meeting was unique~in that it was the first time that farmers "in Ontario had as- sembled to hear a discussion of the disease of con- tagious abortion in cattle in its relationships to the milk consumers. Bo of the speeches delivered at this meel~ ing indicates that it was a timely one. No person likes to think that there is any possibility of con- tagion or infection being taken into the human system by contact With diseased animals or their products. If there is a danger of this in the use of milk from animals which might have the germs of the disease mentioned, then it is essential that steps should be taken to control it. The striking point brought out was that there have already been three deaths in the district tracable to this bovine disease which shows that the menace is by no means an imaginary one. It is not our intention, of course, to frighten anyone, since the meeting was assured by the medical men present that pasteurization was an effective safeguard against the germs of the dis ease. Reeve Croxall, the chairman of the meeting, however, struck the right note when he said that while the diseasé;was no more rampant in this dis- trict. than anywheipcdlis: ih 'Ontario, yet it had an 24 important relatiofship public health. i 5i™" 7 And since the 'BFooklifi" district is largely de- pendent upon. dairying for its prosperity, it is im- portant that 'it should make every effort to clean up its own situation. The district has the op- portunity of pioneering in an impostant matter, and it would be worth while for Whitby and the adjoining townships to: be the first in the field in this, rather than to follow in the trail of other communities. tlie dairy industry and A BUSY MAN FOR A BIG JOB The Domitth h, vernment afew days ago wish- ed to secure thie mien to act on a commission for the investigatiom, of the salaries of the toch- nical experts of the civil service. This is an impor- tant body, and it has a big question to deal with for the migration of the technical experts in many lines from Canada to the United States has be- come a serious matter. "Jt "was a big job, and yet the government chose one of the busiest men in Canada as one of the commission members. Mr. Beatty, incidentally is the president of the Canadian Pacific Railway, di- rector of the Royal Trust Company, is actively as- sociated with McGill University aud the Navy League, and travels far and wide in the transac- tion of the duties of his various offices, Probably he is one of the busiest men in Canada. Yet the government, in selecting him, and se- curing his acceptance, only followed out the prin ciples of the time-worn adage, "If you want a job done, get a busy man to do it." In this case, that principle has been carried out, and the busy man |. will have the big job to tackle. And it is safe to say that he will do it just as well as'he has done everything else that it has fallen to his lot to undertake. TO ARBITRATE The decision of the governments of Canada and the United States to resort to arbitration to settle the dispute which has arisen over the sinking of the schooner "I'm Alone", admittedly a rum- running ship, by United States coastguards, is a wise one. The notés exehanged between the two countries show that widely separated views points are held on tHe miitter, and that further _efforts to settle the magfer. through the recognized diplomatic channels would be waste of time and words. Ran 'While the sinking of a v3 on, the high seas, with the consequent loss offone:of the crew, is a serious matter, it must be noted that there are good arguments on both sides of the question. There is an important principle involved, that of the right of foreign ¢jfiZens to break, with im- punity, the law of a coUntry, other than theif own. That principle will form thé idot of thie arbitra- tion proceedings, for the wheéle: matter is- either , nos covered by an international ig;the smuggling of liquor into Ever since the United States adopted prohiti- tion, the flooding of that country with liguor ° By mail (outside' limits), in the Counties trom Canada and Great Britain has been a trouble- -some point. If the pending arbitration proceedings help to clear up the situation and create a greater respect for laws of the United States on the part of those who are not citizens of that country, some good will come out of an unpleasant incident. HOOVER'S CONDEMNATION It is not often that a citizen of the United States will utter so scathing an indictment of his own country as President Hoover did when he was ad the annual luncheon of the Assoc- " fated Press in New York the other day. Possibly he did not intend it in that way, but his words . 'constituted a condemnation of the living stand- ards and of law enforcement in the United States such as seldom been equalled for its bitterness, In his addresss, the president said:-- "More than nine thousand human beings are lawlessly killed every year in the United States. Little more than one half as many arrests follow. Less than one-sixth of these, slayers are convicted, and but a scandalous- ly small percentage are adequately punished. Twenty times as many people are lawlessly killed in the United States as in Great Britain. In any of our great cities, murder can appar- enty be committed with impunity. At least fifty times as many robberies in proportion to population are committed in the United States as in Great Britain, and three times as. many burglaries . . . Life and property are relatively more unsafe than in any other civilized country in the world." These are remarkable 'admissions to come, from the chief executive of the United States. And yet there is something admirable in the attitude which the new President has adopted. They show that he has, as least, realized the futility of the meth ods being employed in the administration of the laws of his country, and having seen these weak- nesses, he will have before him, during his years of office, the opportunity to remedy them. EDITORIAL NOTES Pembroke's. tax-rate is 53.75 mills on the dollar. Enough to make many of the taxpayers of Pembroke go broke. A weather prophet says this is going to be a hot summer. Probably he is the same fellow who last fall predicted a long, hard winter, Hon. P. J. Veniot is to take a holiday trip to Eu- rope in the near future, After his experience in trying to get his estimates put through, he needs it. The new provincial police department which it to handle liquor cases will be effective only after the loopholes in the Liquor Control Act have been closed up. , A total of $5,000,000 has been paid over to the London Stock Exchange for its Derby sweep- stake. To-day, as always, there are plently of peo- ple anxious to take a chance. President Hoover is showing that he has not 'lost his international mind.® The pronouncement #t Geneya showing the way to world reduction of navies was evidently inspired by him. « Other Editors' Comment ~ A DESIRABLE STATE OF AFFAIRS (La Presse) T It is noteworthy today that working conditions in the province of Quebec are better than in the manu- facturing" centres of New England.

Barton, M.D. CHEWING THE FOOD PRE. VENTS DISTENTION Perhaps you are bothered with pains in the region of the appendix at times and naturally wonder if you have "chronic appendicitis," Now it is just possible that you have appendicitis, but most of the pain in the adbomen comes from as, that is the fermentation or putre- action of food that has been eaten. Dr. Albert S, Welch, Kansas City, Mo, tells us that under ordinary cire cumstances the usual articles of diet, such as cooked potatoes and tender meat, are acted upon by juices in the stomach and small intestine, spend a sufficient time here for proper di- gestion, and after about two hours the material that has not been ab- sorbed into the blood, passes into the large intestine, As it is still in a liquid state a little absorption into the blood takes place, and the covering of the starch granules that did not get broken up in the small intestine, get broken down by the organisms i the large intestine. ° Now this starchy material may get through the small intestine unbroken and therefore not digested, because the food is "hurried" along 'on its way. . Sometimes also because the diges- tive juices in the small intestine are not strong enough to break down the hard or "cellulose" coverings of the starchy food, this starchy food reaches the large intestine undigest- ed. Now the natural organisms in the large intestine are just waiting TODAY'S LIST OF " AUTO ACCIDENTS Girl Injured Evelyn Miller, .134 Bellwoods avenue, four years old, was slight- ly injured when ghe ran in front of an automobile driven by 8. Tadiene of 240 Bellwoods avenue. No charges were laid. William Booth, 2342 Queen street east, was arrested on a charge of reckless driving after his automobile had struck another machine, earomed into a post and then overturned. Booth escaped with minor injuries. Boy's Leg Broken Six-year-old Orlando Ciccacel, 42 Beaver avneue, had a leg broken when he ran into the side of an automobile 'while playing at Dut- ferin and Beaver streets. The driver of the automobile, William Stur- gess, 36 Lillian street, was not held. The victim of the accident is in the Hospital for Sick Children. Skull Fractured Mrs. Mary Croweson, 104 Alex- ander street, suffered a fracture of the skull and deep gashes about a tree at Church and aitland streets. Mr. Croweson swerved into the tree to avoid another auto- mobile, he told the police. MANY ACCIDENTS IN .

Others are lettuce, celery, cabbage, radishes, and spin- ach, all of which, Dr. Welch points out, lead to fermentation in the large intestine, Now this does not mean that the above articles should not be eaten, because the foods in themselves are nourishing, and also these coverings of rough material are of help'in pe bing or scraping the sides of the large intestine, thus stimulating movement and preventing constipation. It does mean, however, that these foods should be well chewed and mixed with the saliva, the digestive juice in the mouth, because a good 'deal of preparation for absorption by the small intestine can thus be done. If these foods are not well chewed, and pass through the stomach and intes- tine without much change, it means the large intestine. foed. (Registered in Accordance with the Copyright "Act.) Sie STONECUTTERS 10 STRIKE IN TORONTO Demand Increase in Wages and a Five Day Week Toronto, April 27.--Prolonged negotiations with the contractors not having resulted in an increase in wages, members of the Journey- men's Association of Stonecutters of America, at their meeting last night in the Labor temple, decid- ed by a large vote to lay down their tools and strike May 1., An- other factor in their determination to strike was the rejection of their request for'a 40-hour week. Officials of the union stated last night that in the United States, the stonecutters receive $1.75 an hour. In a great many places, also, the five-day week is in vogue. Negotia- tions have been in progress for months now to secure a rate of $1.30 an hour and the five-day week. They explained that there is a scarcity of workers of their trade in Canada. No effort will be spared they said, to reach a seftle- ment in a conciliatory manner if possible.
