Employment Shows Jump Of 22,704 in 9,270 Firms Ottawa.--A substantial expansion was shown in employment on June 1, when reports from 9,270 concerns showed 915,792 workers on the payrolls, an increase of 22,704 over the previous month, the Dominion Bureau of Sta'istics reported recently. The crude index on June 1 stood at 7.6 against 95.2 the preceding month and 96.6 on June 1, 1934. On the base that June 1, 1926 equals 100, the index for the 13 previous ears as follows: 1933, 80.7; 1932, 89.1; 1931, 103.6; 1930, 116.5; 1929, 122.2; 1928, 113.8; 1927, 107.2; 1926, 102.2; 1925, 95.6; 1924, 96.4; 1923, 98.5; 1922, 90.3, and 1921, 87.7. Pronounced advances were reported in manufacturing, when the additions to staffs considerably exceeded the average seasonal gain on June 1 in the past 14 years, the port states. The favorable movement extended to practically all classes of factory employment. In the non-manufacturing tries increased employment shown in logging, mining, cations, local and railway transportation, building, and railway construction and maintenance, service and trade. On the other hand, shipping and stevedoring was slacker, and there were temporary losses in highway construction. Improvement was indicated, says the report, in all five economic areas, except Ontario, where thi was a minor contraction, while firms in Quebec and the Prairie Provini employed the greatest number of extra workers.

Pure metaiiic arsenic was prepared in colloid form by mixing arsenic and water, using some gelatin as "binder" to prevent arsenic from precipitating, he said. Tiny particles of arsenic are held suspended in the colloid form. Prof. Burton cited one case of a young Winnipeg woman suffering from osteogenic sarcoma in the lower third of the left femur. In Sep-putation after biopsy was recommended. Arsenic treatment, however, began October 20. X-rays taken in December, 1934, and March and May, 1935, showed progressive reduction of tumor and regeneration of bone. The patient returned to her home in Winnipeg "apparently quite cured," Prof. Burton said. British Debt Per Capita Up On U.S. Washington.--The United States Government neared the end of its fiscal year recently with a gross debt of almost $28,700,000,000. In the face of this, an authoritative comparison showed that the public debt per head in Great Britain is about two and one-half times greater than that in this country. Figures gleaned from a statement prepared for a congressional committee by Marriner S. Eccles, Federal Reserve Board Governor, indicated the debt per head for all public bodies in the United States was $370 compared to §991 in Britain. Meanwhile, bill-drafting experts were busy preparing legislation to whittle the Federal indebtedness down a bit with the tax-the-rich pro-| gram that President Roosevelt has' advocated. Hearings on their product were arranged to begin very soon. The most optimistic predictions at the Capitol were that the tax measure would be ready" for presentation to the House by July 29. Eccles, in the statement that he prepared for Congress, contended that treasury cash balances, the $2,-000,000,000 stabilization fund set up with the profits of dollar devaluation, and recoverable assets, should be deducted from the gross debt figure. On that basis, the net Federal; debt was calculated at less than $20,-1 000,000,000. The national income for 1934 w estimated at $50,000,000,000 $400 per head in the United Stati against $20,000,000, or $430 per head in the United Kingdom. Yesterday You cannot get away from yesterday. What you did, what you said, what you were is interwoven with every experience of today. Just because there is. no escape from yesterday, you should give it very little deliberate attention. Sometimes the recollection of yesterday's mistakes fairly paralyzes your initiative. You brood upon them until you get the feeling that everybody else must be thinking of them too, and come to the conclusion that it is no use to try. Perhaps yesterday's little triumphs loom so large that you fee! you deserve a day off. Trying to re-i yesterday's good times may make today's task seem hopelessly dull and dreary. Brooding on yester. day's sorrow may keep you from seeing the little joys that today has waiting for you. Yesterday is not done with you but you are done with yesterday. GASOLINE NOW NON-INFLAMMABLE Yeafs of Research by Chemists World Over Now Bear Fruit For many years chemists and fuel engineers in many lands have tried to develop a process for converting the highly inflammable liquid gaso. line into a non-explosive solid form. The event of the research is indicated by the fact that more than 200 patents have been granted for solid fuels. None of these, however, was found to be efficient when put to the test, according to Dr. Alexander Klemin, director of the Daniel Guggenheim School of Aeronautics at New York University. Last week a demonstration held at the Guggenheim school which suggests at last a method has been discovered for producing ■explosive solid gasoline which would have as its chief advantage the elimination of the fire hazard air travel. The new solid gasoline, called "solene," has been developed after sixteen years of research by Dr. Adolph Prussin, Nw York chemist. If the preliminary tests are to be taken as a criterion, he has ceeded in producing a solidification of gasoline readily usable in internal combustion engines at a cost said to be less than one cent a gallon above the ordinary liquid fuel. It is predicted that "solene" will prove of great advantage to the army and navy air forces, as the igniting of gasoline tanks by tracer or explosive bullets during combat is one of the serious hazards. To test this non-igniting quality, Clyde Pang-born, round-the-world flier, fired furr incendiary bullets with an army rifle from a range of twenty-five feet into a five-gallon can of the solidified gasoline. EFFECTS OF THE SHOTS The first three shots had no effect whatever. It was only after the fourth shot, when some of the gasoline had liquefied by pressure and spilled, on the ground, that it ignited, and then only in -such a manner that it could be easily extinguished by merely stamping on it. Another advantage in military and naval aviation under combat conditions would lie in the fact that a tank containing solid gasoline would continue to operate even after it was punctured by an enemy bullet, whereas gasoline in liquid form would, of course, when its container was punctured, leak out. It was shown in the course of the demonstration that "solene" would rroH>6Tn even when subjected to a high degree of heat, unless a flame was actually brought in contact with the substance. Full details of the new solidification process are being withheld, but a few general hints have been given out. The principle upon which the new solidifying process is based was first discovered by Dr. Prusian in 1919 while he was trying to remove paraffin from gaso-He found that the gasoline could be* solidified by first altering its molecular structure through catalysts, the "match-makers" of the chemical world, and then removing the catalysts. If this sounds simple, let it be stated that during the past sixteen years he tried out no fewer than 9,000 types of hydrocarbons before he hit upon the right combination. . . PROCESS WIDLEY USED The same process, according to Dr. Prussian, has been used for turning into solid form kerosene, naptha fuel oil, lubricating oil, crude oil, shale oil and alcohol. The process is not complicated. It employs cheap chemicals which can be used over and over again. It takes only fifteen minutes for the conversion from the liquid into the solid state. The temperature is never above 155 degrees Fahrenheit and no expensive machinery is required. With the present apparatus, using pressure kettles turned by hand, 120 gallons an hour can be produced. It can be speeded up to as high as 2,-500 gallons every four minutes. Only one chemical is used as catalyst, it was revealed, but the time of the removal of the catalyst is an important factor in the process. The process, it is claimed, can be applied to gasoline of any octane number, and the mere act of solidification imparts to it a high antiknock quality without the need for the addition of tetraethyl lead. >Lkts AUTOMATIC booklet CIGARETTE PAPERS NEW METHOD OF ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION Invented By Holger Nielson And Adopted By Danish Red Cross Land is one of the things we ha' i abundance in Canada. It is ti ource of wealth. How about letting, J<Issue No. 30 - few more people begin at the _Jj_ source?--Regina Leader-Post. ' 19 '. Many minor details of the treatment, chiefly in regard to caring for the patient before and after the artificial respiration is applied, similar to the Schaeffer and Sib er methods and will require no cription, as they are known to all. The essential rules, according which the new method may be rectly performed, are as follows: If rescuer is alone, he shall start resuscitation immediately and shall send for the doctor and ambulance only when others have come to hi assistance. If help is very long i coming, patient should be removed to nearest house. Remove outer clothing and quickly loosen all garments restraining breathing if necessary. Lay patient face down on flat, hard surface. If surface slopes, keep head at lowest point. Bend patient's 3 at elbow, cross hands flat, one • the other, and place directly under patient's forehead. Place handkerchief under hands and face, if possible, to prevent dust terjng and to keep mouth and nose clear of the ground. Then, standing at head of patient, the operator places one knee near head on a folded cloth or coat, and places the other foot near his elbow. Kneeling thus, the operator slaps lavily with flat hands between the shoulder blades two or three times, that the tongue may fall forward. Note, if tongue does not fall forward, operator must open patient's mouth and draw it forward. At all times he must be certain that the tongue mains forward and downward. STARTING POSITION The operator lays his hands with itstretched fingers on. patient's back, so that his palms ale just on the shoulder blades and the wrists just over the top edge. EXPIRATION Operator commences artificial respiration at once by swinging his body forward, swining freely from the hips, with his arms straight and stiff. He moves slowly and with progressive pressure. The pressure is to be made only by the weight of the operator's body alone. He must be certain that his movement of pressure shall be free of muscular force. Continue pressure until arms are quite vertical. Operator holds position while he counts 1, 2, 3, 4, and on four he releases pressure by swinging his torso backward. Operator then moves fiis hands along the patient's shoulders and arms until he can grasp the middle of the patient's upper arms. He now swings slightly backward, causing the patient's arms to "lift" a little. Only the arms move in this second half of the movement, the head and torso of the patient remaining undisturbed. The arms are held in this "lift" position while the operator continues the count by 5, 6, At eight, the operator returns his hands to the first position and repeats the whole movement. The operator repeats these double movements seven or eight times the minute. The first half the pressure on the shoulder blades, must last for 2% seconds, while he is counting to four, and at four he must swing backward and grasp the arms. The "lift" of the arms continues during 2% seconds, while operator counts from five to eight and at the count of eight he returns to the starting position. The count must be made slowly and evenly and the eighth count should be made seven seconds after the first. This allows ample time for the even, slow swinging from pressure to "lift" position and back. If necessary, operator may employ a watch during the beginning of the resuscitation. The treatment must not be given up until at least four hours of steady, vnremitting resuscitation have been ■ tried, unless, of course, the patient^ commences to breathe strongly and naturally of his own volition. The basis of the method is form and rhythm. A really rhythmic, soft rolling movement can be carried on indefinitely, if the operator makes certain of the balance of his position. This, of course, may be slightly adjusted during the first few double movements, until he finds himself working without effort. Artificial resuscitation is to _ be carried on well after the patient gives the first signs of life by exhibiting the ability to breathe slightly by himself, but from that point on the operator must discontinue the second half of the movement, the "lift." The operator proceeds only to apply and relieve pressure on the shoulders, thus speeding his movements to nine t» 10 times per minute. For if the "lift" is continued after this point the patient can be very seriously over-ventilated, causing A great diminishment of the carbon-dioxide in the blood, C02, and resulting finally in a total inability to breathe at all. If a carbogen apparatus is employed the "lift" may be continued, but only in this one circumstance. And only if the apparatus is in the hands of a trained operator. Without the carbogen apparatus the "lift" must be discontinued at once on perceiving the first signs of life in the patient. SEVEN AGES OF AMBITION At five year--to be like Uncle Bob.
