Editoi .MOKi; 1M.\N I'K.MTENCE KKtfl lltKD It is conceded President Roosevelt has not been nearly as successful in his efforts to briiiR about prcsixrity in the L'liittti States as ht- had hoped to be. But the President is not "withholdinK his hand fmm the plow" and is appai-cntly deter- luinwi to pre.s.s forward to the mark of his hiifh calling. I" rocent speeches he ha.s .so declared hini^i-lf, and has been ably seconded by his Secretary of State. Mr. Cordcll Hull, who, in an address in New York city last week, assunied the role of con- fessor of the past national short- foniinprs, and admitted that the Unit- e<l States had set "the vicious vx- amply of high tariffs." He declared "Wc have now rei)ented." He fur- ther asserted that "extreme national- ism, if persisted in. is destined soon to wreck our entire structure ol M'estern civillization." Conlinuinp, the Secretary of State adduce<l recent declai-ations of the neighboring gov- ernment in favor of neROtiating trade agreements with other nations as frank admission that the United States had erred in the past and he declared: "Just as vve set the vicious example of erecting the trade barriers of high tariffs which induced otlicrs to follow us. so now we are asking other na- tions to join us in an attempt to undo the damage our collective action has worked. We wish to break down all the artificial and excessive impedi- menUs put in the way of world com- merce, not only in our own interest, but for the benefit of all others as well, since only by restoring the whole vvorld can individual countries hope to remain economically healthy long." The Secretary further character- ired orderly international trade as "one of the greatest educators, civil - izers and peacemakers," an<i said "A hermit nation means a hermit civili- zation." He pointed out, that after the war the United States played the "meiTy game of booming business by both .selling on ci'edit and buyijig from ourselves" through loans to fo- reign nations. When it was found that many of the loans could not be immediately repaid, he said, "a great deal of our glittering volume of ex- ports ,l»came simi.ly a present oi several billion dollars' worth of com- moditii"s to other peoples." There is certainly a great deal of truth in what the right hand man in President Roosevelt's Cabinet say.s. Now let the courageous President cease waiting for other nations to radically reduce their tariff, and coumgeously lead the way. The trouble is that when reform"ation is advocated it so often ends in talk. They all In-gin to make excuses, aye even Canadian staU'smen are among the hesitants. Why not begin by radically reducing the taxes between these neighboring countries? THE RADIO <llESTION When the Canadian Radio Com- mission was first brought into being we were asked to withold criticism until the Commission had time to show what it could do. This was two years ago and surely it has had sufficient time to justify the claims made for it. Any person owning a radio will, wc feel sure, say they arc decidedly unsatisfactory. On Sun- •lay last the lamentable position our Radio Commission occupies was brought home with new force when the Remembrance Day exercises wej-e broadv-a^Jt h\ lliis si-clion of Canada by only one station and that an independent one. As a matter ol fact the Commission station in To- ronto is rarely tuned in by radio owners in this section, oniy 85 miles away from the studio. It is more than annoying to get absolutely noth- ing for the two dollai-s we are forced to disgorge and have to tune in to the very fine programs put on by the two great brnadcasting systems of the United States, while our own pit- iful system plays the part of drones without producing any honey. It is Very humiliating. An all-world b|i;iadcast on Sunday was carried by CFRB, with w<»nderful clarity, but (^RCT was a roar of interference and worse than useless. The people ave becoming "fed up" with promises and failures of the Commission and de- mand, in the language of youth, that that body either "put up or shut up.'' Wf would prefer that they would shut up â€" disband. CEYLON l'I.AYIN(; WET M RSE It is funny when you think of it! The grand old Province of Ontario has gone into the wet nurse bu.siness. This was done under the late Pro- vincial Government, headed by Mr. Ilinry. There are those mean enough to say the wet nurse incident was one of the issues which decided the election. AVhy, they say, should Pa Dionne be assisted in bringing up his five girls at the public expense'.' For ourselves, we think this a rather mean attitude to take. At the same lime We hope the incident will not be made a precedent. It might ci-eate .serious dif.ficulties and misunder- standings. Pa Dionne has already given notice that he will take a hand in the game when the young ladies reach marriageable age. EDITORIAL NOTES The Brandon Sun hears that the Callendar quintuplets are to be given a daschund. so that they all can pef it at once. • * • It is now explained that ex-Premier Henry expresed determination to face the new Legislature as opposi- tion leader, because he considers he is entitled to show that he can make a better record a.s such, than fell to his lot as Premier. « » * British Premier Ramsay MacDon- ald, refused to orate while in Canada, but our cooler sea coast air seems to have loosened up his vocal cords. He is to give his first big public address since his return home, on Friday next, when he will be the principal speaker at the banquet of the Lord Mayor of London. • • • The women have a weapon at t/.eir disposal which no burglar can face, namely a good healthy scream. An incident to prove this occurred at Meaford on Monday, when a lone burglar entered the office of the Knight Manufacturing Co. The young lady in charge lot out a per- fectly developed scream which brought speedy help. The burglar knew she had the drop on him and faded out of sight before he could be captured, leaving SI ,.500 behind him in the safe. A healthy scream is a valuable pos.session for any girl, and as for the women, a united yell from them could nip a war in the bud. Think it over, ladies, and be thankful for yoar vocal birthright.

A HtALTM SEBVICE Of THE CANADIAN MEDICAL iSSOCIATION AND LIFE .NSURANCE COMPANIES IN CANADA a'NEl'MOrHORAX .When' tuberculosis is diagnosed, what is the patient to do? The answer to this question is REST This i.s what the doctor will tell him to do, becau.se everyone will agree that in the treatment of tuberculosis, the most important point is rest, phy sical and mental. In tuberculosis, the lung is diseased, and through rest the activity of the lung is diminished and so the healing forces aie given a better chance to arrest the disease process, halt the progress of the disease, and bring about a cure. At birth, air first enters the lungs when breathing begins. This air, which is at atmospheric prtessuite, causes the lungs to expand, filling the chest cavity. Owing to their elas- ticity, the lungs tend to contract a- against the atmospheric pressure, and this creates a slight negative pres- sure or suction in the chest cavity outside of the lung itself. Between the lung and the chest wall there is the pleura, a smooth covering of two layers, the larger one of which covers the lung, and the other, the in- ner side of the chest wall. In the act of breathing, these twb coverings glide the one over the other. Within recent years, artificial pneu- mothoiax has been used to place a diseased lung at complete rest, in order to increase the chance of heal- ing. This is accomplished by intro- ducing air into the pleural cavity, the space between the two coverings or layers of pleura. The introducing of air into the pleural cavity reduces the negative pressure that is normal in that cavity and bo equalizes the pressure that is .exerted on the lungs from within and without. The result is that the lung collapses and is at rest. Not all patients require pneumo- thorax, nor all cases suitable for such lessens the chance of spread to the other lung, reducing sputum «aA so minimizes the chance of spreading the disease and, altogether, represents a great advance in the treatment of a disease which is still one of the most common and persistent enemies of mankind.
