It is now understood that the re- served power of disallowance which the King in Council possesses under *| the law is sufficient for all practical purposes and it is established usage that no Act of the Parliament of Can- +| ada can be disallowed except upon an issue of 4u order by the King him- self. ' bn Merchant Shipping. Britain claims to exercise authority over legislation passed by Canada is dn the matter of merchant shipping, for the Britih' Parliament retains the sole right to tontrol such shipping, chant vessels in Canadian harbors. 80 far as changes In the British North America Act are concerned this Act having been passed by the British Parliament and being one of the statutes of Britain can only be {altered by that Parliament. If for | example the Dominion wanted to { Change the number of members in the Senate, as she does from time to | time, such change can only be effoct- '164d by an amendment to the British [North America Act and the British | Parliament by established usage will { not make any such amendment save | on the joint request of both Houses and on such joint request being pre- sented Britain \will not refuse to grant it, It happened in' 1916 that the five yearly term of Parliament would have expired but by a joint re- Quest of the House of Commons and the Senate, owing to the fact that Canada was then at war, a request Was presented to the British Parlia- ment to amend the B.N.A, Act so 8s to prolong the life of Parliament ana thus avoid a general election, and this was granted. Foreign Relations. So far as foreign relations are con- cerned Canada is still in some re- spects subjgct to the authority of the British Parliament; e Treaty .cf Versailles is the first peace treaty which she has signed as a nation and while it is a truism that when "England is at war Canada is at war," yet the sanction of the Canad- fan people, through their represen- tatives in Parliament must be obtain- ed before Canada can spend a dollar from her treasury, Some of us have a strong aversion to living as long as Methusela-- something like a thousand years, ac- cording to the bibel story. We are rather inclined to: the scriptural limit of 'three score and ten" beyond which period we are told life consists of "labor and sorrow." Apparently, however, in the past, a 'mighty small percentage of the hu- man race, taken as a whole, reached even the age of seventy. It isn't fo long ago--when one thinks in the terms ot the life of the human race--- that the average length of life was only about twenty years--so many of us died during babyhood and childhood. There was a time when the phile- sophers and wise men thought tiaat God's way of keeping down the growth of populations and in destroy- ing the "unfit" was to send great plagues over vast areas Which car- ried off thousands to their graves. During more recent times it has come to be believed that God's deésire for men is not that they should die but that they should Iive., "I am come that they might have life and that they might have it more abundantiy" was the declaration of Jesus. In the face of the fatalists' asser- tions, scientists have produced a race of men whose lives have been length- ened so that instead iof the averaze of only twenty years per life, men to- day live an average of more than twice as many years. » * * In Europe as a whole the average length of life doubled in three and one-half centuries. In the United States, the annual death rate has de- creased in 25 years from about 20 per thousand to about 12 per thous- and. Our great cities which were form- erly supposed to be much more un- healthy than country districts have shown a remarkable decrease'in the number of deaths. In New York city, for example, the death rate for 1920 was 12.93 per thousand, but it should be remem- bered that this includes all of the' deaths in the hunderds of hospitals and institutions which take care of the wreckage of manhood and womanhood for the entire country. The total number of deaths in the city was 73,249, of which over 39,- 000 occurred in hospitals and insti- tutions. ' . . . One of the diseases in which death rates have been greatly reduced is that of tuberculosis. Marked changes have been noted in this dis- ease which were undreamed of even ten years ago. 7 The pulmonaiy tuberenlosis death rate for whites between 25 and 40 years of age has been cut in two since 1911. During recent years there were always 500,000 people {ll from tub- erculosis. half of whom were totally incapacitated and of whom 150,000 died annually. : Tuberculosis was--and still js-- the greatest scourge a g the poor for mortality from this dread diseasa Observations From the Belfry ° By the Rev. Charles Stelzle. terror to che entire family, each one expecting to become the victim of this horrible disease, no one knowing who would be the next to be struck down, but each ever fearful that ke was already marked for its death- dealing blow. There is cause, therefore, for sin- cere congratulation that the death rate of tuberculosis has been so greatly decreased. yn Typhoid fever is also rapidly dis appearing from the records of Am- erican mortality. The Journal of the American Medical Association re- cently made a survey of typhoid fever in 68 cities of the United States with "a population of more than 100,000, These cities in 1920 have a popu- lation of twenty-seven and one-third millions and there occurred in' taat year a total of 1,007 deaths from (y- phoid fever, This is equivalent to a rate of 3.7 deaths per 100,000 of pop- ulation, For fifty-seven of these sixty-eight cities, figures are avail- able for the full eleven years, 1910 to 1920. In®1910, the typhoid fever rate was 19.6 per 100,000; in 1920. the same group of cities had a rate of 3,5, or about one-sixth as high. This shows how rapidly this disease has declined during the decade. The picture is even more encourag- ing if we concentrate upon the larg- est cities, namely, those having 500.- 000 and more of population. There are twelve such cities, and their death rate for typhoid in 1920 was only 2.8 per 100,000. . The city of New York, with its nearly six mil- lions of population, had a rate of 2.4; and Chicago, one of 1.1 per 100,000. . . . 5 How great has been the victory of sanitary science in its attack upon Ly- phoid is also indicated by reference to the mortality records of the cen- sus bureau for the early years of this century. Rates of over 50 per 100, 000 were of frequent occurrence. of ten offEinal registration states. and seven cities of 100,000 popula- tion or over out of 37 such cities, had typhoid fever rates of more than 590 rer 100,000. Indeed, rates of over 100 werd not infrequently register- ed. \ 5 During the first ten years of the century such high rates were record- ed, however, more often in the smail- er than in the larger cities, Much interest attaches to an added comparison of the typhoid rages in the twelve cities of more than $00.- 000 population as quoted in the Journals survey. The greatest dry; is--shown for Pittsburg. For" A five-yéar period 1906 to 1910, the an- nual average 'death rate for this city was 65.0 per 100,000. The jate for 1920 was 2.7. During the same time, the mortali- ty in Philadelphia dropped from 41.7 to 3.3; the decline in Balt{mote was from 35.1 to 4.7; and in 3an Francisco from 27.3 to 3.1. The other decreases mentioned were: was most pronounced among wage- earners. whose death usually disrupts family life; scattering its members, and making them heavy charges on society. : Furthermore, long periods of dis- ability usually preceded death, not only making the wage-earner inco petent, but causing him to become a great burden upon those should be ife, | the year 1920, Chicago from 15.8 to 1.1; Boston from 16.0 to'15; New York from 13.5 to 2.4; Los Angeles from 10.0 to 2.6; St. Louis from 14.7 to ii Cleveland from: 15.7 to 3.2; Detroit from 21.1 to 5.1 and Buffalo from 22.8 to 5.1. CR Examinations of the typhoid 'death rates quoted in the Journal of the merican ; for in the 88 large cities, discloses mot a single instance in which a rate of over 15 per 100.- 000 was reached, instead of the 50 per 100,000 which was not ake mon twenty years ago. NO COLLECTION, No STOLE THE CHURCH BELL French Thieves Escaped in Motor Car With 13-Ton Loot. At a time when such a large per- centage of French criminals are spe- cializing in thefts of jewelry, check books and the more easily portable luxuries of life, it is almost refres!:- ing to hear of such originality as was shown the ruffiane who devoted their attention to stealing a church bell weighing one and one-halt tons. Recently a considerable force of motor bandits entered the ruins of Essars church, near Lille," and sue- véeded in hauling out a huge bell and placing it upon their lorry. They wers surprised in the aet by thé night watchman, who made at attempt to resist the removal of the bell but was bludgeoned by the bandits, who es- caped.--Landon Times, Of the many minerals which Abys- sinia is known to contain only potash is being produced on a commercial scale.
