73401 ydc neuritis neuritis means the in flamation of a nerve it may occur m any part of the bodj the most common lo cations being the neck shoul der arm hip or leg th most definite sy mptom of n unti is pain and tender ness along the cburse of the nerve trunk of a burr ng tearing tingling intense- character which is increas ed by pressure or motion sciatica for example is an mflamation qf the sciatic nerve and one of the most painful maladies neuritis is caused by pres sure on the nerves involved or by a highly toxic state of the blood due to improper function of some of the blood purifying glands and organs in both cases the cause is that something has interfer ed with the flow of vital en ergy over the nerves in time if not corrected the nerves begin to degenerate followed by impaired motion and partial paralysis of the affected area the length of time it will take to get well under chiro practic care depends upon l industry two factors 1 the degree of damage done and 2 whether the nerve is under direct pressure of is in flamed because of blood toxicity in the case of direct pres sure chiropractic care brings spectacular results with an early disappearance of symptoms in the case of toxemia the return of good health is slower due to the amount of reorgan 1 ration which must first take place within the body if you suffer from neuritis l your best plan is to see youf chiropractor immediately while the damage done can stall be repaired on monday april 6th haltons federal member of parliament sandy best made a lengthy speech in parliament in which he urged formation of a government com mittee to study organization of scientific research and pointed out the need for increased government aid in the research field text of his apeeoh is continued from last weeks edition partly as a result of this there was considerable stimulus in great britain and canada towards the formation of a committee which would involve ethe government in more productive research the set ting up of the national research council after that time rew out of the cabinet committee and in 1928 the government started the erec tion of a national research council laboratory which was opened i9j2 in the following 3 ears until 1939 or 1940 research activity on the part of the government grew slow 1 but at the time of the second world war there was a tremendous expansion m this field through aui the second world war various li nor a tones across the country in eluding several here in pttawa were engaged in defence research this was still within the scope of the national research council and the effort duing those war years was naturally of a more applied nature having in mind tecbnologi cal advances the solving of van ous problems and successes which could contribute directly to our war effort some of the matters one might mention which were the subject of research were various medical fields radar biological warfare and so forth those are bomc that come to mind however after the war it became obvious that the defence part should probably have a separate ntity and separate representat i ion 1 would say mr speaker that i i the whole structure and intcrrcla i tionship of the whole defense res earch board as it came into being and lhat of the national research council and other organizations voul 1 bear close scrutiny by such a committee as it is proposed should be established the encour agement of research by addition al funds must be related to the structure and inter relationships of the various bodies now engaged in fundamental research the defense research board was realed shortly after the sixond world war and was set up m much the same manner as the national research council w ith w hich i should like to deal a in a few moments representatives of each of the armed services are mem bers of the board and at the pres ent time as well as over the past few vcars there is considerable in terlolkinj of membership with the nationlal research council how ever structurally the defence res earch board is a unit and entity within the department of nation al defence the defence research board has made a very considerable con t ibution to research in this t un ry it guts grants in aid of re search to universities and operates as well an extensiv e s stem of aboratones throughout the coun try much of its research f toursc has been devoted 1 1 ap plied w irk of direct in ten st to th armed forces one can think of laboratories such as lhat at suf field alberta the northorn labor atory at churchill manitoba the medical laboratory in toronto and the armament and research devel opment centre at quebec city as examples of the places at which hese activities arc earned out while in the defense research board lhe emphasis has been on applied research there has been considerable success as well with fundamental work some of it car ried out at universities the national research council was the predecessor of the defence research board from which the lat ter split off as a separate group the national research council con sists at the present time of some 21 members four of whom are paid of ficials the remaining 17 are sel ected trom the universities and i would suggest that a number of these people be inter viewed by the commiuee and be asked to present their thoughts on canadian research because i think that in a general way their extpenence is probably more wide spread in the field of canadian research than is the case with the members of any other single group the president of the national research council presides over the council and is also in charge of the laboratories which the council op crates three vice presidents paid officials or the council are respon sible for administration medical research and science respectively the national research council is not a government department but a special organization which has the responsibility of the operation jf its own laboratories and for as sistancc to scientific and cngin eenng departments of canadian universities in pursuing research work the council as members know reports to the committee of the cabinet and it is the chairman of this committee the minister of trade and commerce mr church ill who presents the council s budget lo parliament it might be said that aid from the national research council to universities for research is sub stantially greater than that from any other canadian 4body these funds for research are devoted to both fundamental and applied re search there are various scien ufic divisions within the national research council such as applied biology pure and applied physics and pure and applied chemistry those are some of the divisions that come readily to mind labor atories are not operated by the council m the field of medical re search the vice president in charge of this subject works very universities and other institutoins in this particular field the vice- president in charge of medical re search also presides over the med ical committee which recommends awards and scholarships to be made in the medical field there are as well and i think this is an interesting point some 28 associate committees of the national research council for the purpose of planning programs of research and education as well as bringing into these committees re prescntaties of the various gov crnment departments unnersitics and industries which are directly invoked in apscarch of c ursc one would be remiss if he did not mention nuclear re search in canada this in many ts aspects lb afain the out growth of work done by the nat lonal research council atomic energy of canada limited a crown company grew out of work that had been done some 10 years pre viousfy in the national research council this crown conipany col laborates with industry in the de velopmcnt and use of atomic en ergy we have as well the ato mic energy control board which handles the distribution of radio active materials in canada and awards grants in aid for research this field o various education i al institutions i i should like to go back for a mo ment mr speaker to the question of where we lo from here partieul arly as that question relates to the national research council as i said before i feel that the uni versities should be the rnainsta of fundamental research in can ada i feel not being critical of the council as such that we have a basic problem of organization in that we have a unit which is both running laboratories on its own with a ery considerable staff which has considerable investment and production interest and which is also granting funds for sim lar or different research to other msti tutu ns mainly universities this dual role is perhaps a difficult one perhaps an unwise one for an insti lull in or a council to be undertak mg i would sa however it was prbabh a natural procedure how ever the question arises as to whe ther or not these roles would be better separated in the future we have as an example in real britain formation of three coun cils these councils are the mi h cal research council of great brit am the agricultural research coun til f great britain and the depart ment of scientific and in lust rial research which is actually a gov criiment department and takes up to speak the other areas of n du trial and technical re earch yi m al4ioltiical phvsical and chim cal re areh in re are in this vay three divisions and not the nc 1 r it ion as wc have at pre ent in the national re starch couh ii these three organizations re port directly to the cabinet i think that possibly this is a move which might be studied by this committee if it were feet up advice could be sought on this question from the people in industry from th mem bers of the national research coun cil themselves from the scientists in various government depart ments engaged in research as well as from the people in universities who are the recipients of a consi derable proportion of the money which the national research coun cil grants each year i might add mr speaker that the increase in the funds for the national research council has been a very encouraging sign we can scan lhe expenditures of the nat torral research council and find that in the year 195253 for exam pie 15400 000 were expended and much the same in the follow ing two years coming along to 195556 we find that just over 16 million were expended 195768 20 2 million then we see in the estimates for 195859 and 195960 very significant increases in 1958- 59 the figure is 25992 000 while in 195960 the ftgure is 30133 000 this is a very rapid rate of increase and is i bejieve an im portant sign of the increasingly important place given to research in this country i feel lhat one of lhe most important points in this connection is that the larger pro portion jwrtiaps 75 per eent or more ol lhe budget each year is spent on the councils own labor atories staff and research work the remainder is used for grants in aid of research and scholarships lo universities th6 amount spent on these grants in aid of research and scho larships has jumped very apprec iably in the last two years we had an item in the estimates last year 195850 of almost 6 million for scholarships and grants in aid of research while in 195960 this roberts armstrong holy cross nuptials rev fr thomas van laer offt elated at the

million in that per tod this money goes largely lo educational institutions wc do not have in these institutions a separate body of research workers but instead a constantly growing and sclfperpetualing body lo gra duate students teachers and oth ers who are encouraging and en gaging in research this is a fun damcntally sound point about which the people in lhe research fields across canada feel rather strongly it is unwise to separate to put a wall around a research institution aside from certain ones connected with defence work and lose close communication with educational and
