WEDNESDAY, MAY 21, 1930 A PROGRESSIVE SPIRIT ~The decisions made by the city council Sn Monday night regarding the large civie projects which have been in the air for some time promise to be' far-reaching in their of- fects, The council showed a spirit of pro- gressiveness that was commendable, a de- termination to grapple with the big prob. lems of the administration buildings, police station and subway, in a broad way, and to make certain that these matters would oy be delayed any longer than can be help- The need for administration and police buildings has been so glaring for the last dew years that no citizen will question it. The plecemeal distribution of civic departments over & wide area in the city does not make for efficiency in managing the city's affairs, nor does it provide any kind of convenience for the citizens, who have already, by their votes, shown that they are not in favor of decentralization of civic offices. The defeat of the police station bylaw in January did not mean that the ratepayers were opposed fo having a ne.' police station, It meant, 'only, that they were against perpetuating the condition of decentralization that has prevailed for too long, and, at the same time, favored the centralizing, of all civic depart- 'ments as close to each other as possible Thus 'the action of the council in calling for plans 1 specifications for an administration building and police station, is in line ih e Batdse opinion, and should arouse so favors ble an expression of thought from the rate- payers as to make it a. comparatively simple matter to secure a favorable vote on the bylaw which will have to be passed upon by the ratepayers on these questions, It should be quite possible to have all the preliminaries out of the way and the vote taken in plenty of time to have the work of construction undertaken this year. This would be of material help with the employ- ment situation, and from that standpoint the council's decisions are of great moment to the welfare of those citizens who would be given employment by the erection of these ; buildings. ; e subway question, which was also giv- en official sanction at Monday night's meet- ing, is of a somewhat different character, in that it will not require a vote of the rate. 'payers to have this project undertaken, but the members of council are acting in accord with public' desires in deciding to open up ¢ tions at once with a view to having ne work started as soon as possible. "fh these matters, the council has shown A agp spirit. It has abandoned the "policy of sitting back and waiting for things to change, and that is the kind of leadership . which makes the city council what it ought to be, a definite force for progress in the * ¢*ommunity.

The of inducing all the states of Eur- "ope, with their racial differences, suspicions and jealousies, to band themselves together in one union, is entirely too idealistic for the present age. It has been born far ahead of its time, and before it can become near accomplishment, there will have to be a radi- cal change in the mentality of the people of Europe. It will only be when the lon and the lamb lie down together and the nations beat their swords into plowshares that any- thing of that kind would be possible, Yet, like many another ideal, the time may come when it will be possible to put into the form of a practical reality, President Wil- son's dream of a League of Nations was at one time looked upon as the vision of an im. practical 'idealist, yet it is today a working and effective force, but it took a great war, a cataclysmic upheavel of the nations, to make it so. The United States of America as it stands today, is constituted of many states which at one time had widely diver. gent viewpoints on, matters of state, but these were overcome: in the merging of all into one single entity, ' ' So, while Briand"s dream is too idealistic for the present age, the time may come when it will be possible, and when all the nations of Europe will be willing to join in a feders tion that will definitely remove from the continent all shadows of doubt and suspic- fon and make another European war an im. possibility. TEXT BOOKS FOR CANADIAN SCHOOLS As the result of a survey made in the pro- vince of Quebec by the Montreal Branch of the Canadian Manufacturers' Association, that body has come forward with a demand that Candaian text books be provided for the children in Canadian schools, This is not a new. Jubject, In the last year or so, Lt. i ye of Toronto, has been ling att tothe fact that many of the books in use in the schools of Canada were of foreign manufacture, and, what was worse, have been colored by the particular viewpoint of the country from which they emanated, This is the condition at which the Montreal suggestions are directed, and it ha & condition that should not be allowed to exist. Part of the difficulty, it seems, arises from the fact that education is a/'matter of pro. vincial jurisdiction, and the various province. es each have their own set of text books, That is bound to create differences, and to cause ministers of education to accept books that are written and produced in other coun- tries. The best solution of the problem would be found by an agreement between all the provinces to use uniform text books, so that a sufficient market would be created to make it worth while to produce books that ace distinctively Canadian, This would be par ticularly true of text hooks on history, which is the subject chiefly under investigation, and we would venture to suggest that the best method of dealing with this would be for all the provinces to agree to have Col Drew write, or supervise the writing of a standard Canadian history that will be accepted throughout the whole Dominion, There would then be no room for any crite icism as to the Canadianism.of the history books used by the children of Canada.

The sunshine which has followed the co- pious rains of the last week is making the farmers smile, After all, there is some merit in a political party which is willing to admit that the other fellow may be right.

Dr. P. 1, McKinlay In the Lan- cot, London, England has analyzed the death returns for pernicious anaemia for the six years previous to the introduction of tho liver treatment, For the entire six years the death rate was practically the same as regards age and sex, In 1927 however there was a de- finite decrease In the death rate, there being almost one thousand loss deaths then in any of the pre- vious six years before 1027. This was more particularly in the youny and middle ages of both sexes, The rate of decrease toward the ond of 1028 was groaler than at the beginning, thus showing the actual efficiency of this treatment as its value became known, As conditions have heen actually the same for many years past no other factor entered into the mat ter. 'The liver diet alone is respon sible for this wonderful saving of lives, Thus we read 'It would be safe to predict that the extension of this treatment to a larger propore tion of patients suffering with this disease' will show an even greater decrease in the number of deaths annually.
