TIII‘I NATIHNAL CHRISTIAN (lttllfNCIL OF INDIA, AT THE request of the International Missionary Council, has prepared a report. on the use of opium in India which is very interesting tlumgh sad. reading. “n the question of the proportion of the drug that is used medically or to meet the demands of the opium habit. tho report quotes evidence supplied by 130â€! Indian and “'ostern doctors and educators which shows that about three-ï¬fths of the total amount of opium is used by addicts. UIIQ.‘ ot' the worst. features of the situation is the ter- rihlo- prewdmcy of doping little children. In almost every part of India, it appears that the custom of giving opium [vill~‘ in small children prevails. l'sually it. is not continued beyond tln- ago ot' two or throw years. but up to that age, there :s indulpitahlo- t'\'ltlt‘IIt?0_‘ that, the custom is distressingly wide- ‘lownd. It. is uiwn for various reasons. The commonest is tlw motlwr‘s desire to stop the child’s crying, particularly in tho- raso of mothers who work as operatives in factories. In Bombay.

Chief Justice of Ontario, and Hon. George P. Graham. Minis- ter of Railways and Canals in the federal cabinet. have been made members of the Imperial Privy Cmincil. with the title of "Right Honorable.†This is a much more exclusive honor than a knighthood. The living Canadians who have the right to the titular preï¬x of “Right. Honorable.“ by virtue of member- ship in the Imperial Privy Council, are, in addition to me two gentle- men just admitted. Sir Robert, Bor- den. Sir George Foster. Sir Charles Fitzpatrick. Arthur Meighen. Prem- ier King and Justice Lyman Dufl' of the Supreme Court. or Canada. â€It sliould he noted that. this is 21 distinctively imperial honor, with a titl9 attachod to it. Being so is it not contrarv to th9 spirit if not the letter of th9 resolution adoptcd by our parliam9nt. .90nd9mning tl19 h9st1mal of imperial honors hpon any Canadian r951dcnt, in Canada? If “19 titl9 of ‘Sir†accompanying a knighthood bestowed on a Cana- dian 1‘19 consid9rcd an imp'91‘ialisti9 stigma, a mark of imidious class distinction, hostile to the spirit of t1‘119 d9mocracy. how can this “Right Honorable†119 d9f9nd9d‘.’ It is es- scntially imperialisticâ€"it cannot be acquir9d in Canada; it: must come direct from th9 hand dt‘ tho King. And it is much rarcr and more 91:- clusiv9â€"ther9t‘m'9 more of a class distinctionâ€"than any knighthood can 119. \Vhat will it proï¬t if we am to ban minor imperialistic hon- ors from Canada and allow major on9s to 111- horn9 without sl1am9 by rcsidcnt Canadians? As the author and mower nt‘ that. famous auti-titlos resolution, we look to the Hon. W‘. F. Nickle. At- torney-General of Ontario, tn outer formal protest against. this fresh violation of the spirit of his demo- cratic declaration of independonco. Meanwhile. one may be permit- ton tn say that, in the cases of Sir William Mulock and Hon. Georgv P. Graham, thn hnnor has liven wor- thily lwstowml. Both of them are ('Inadians “orthy “to stand bot’mo kings’ or tn sit in the King's tonn- cil: and \w (lont lwlime that mam ul thoir i'vllmv-(‘itizvns \xill fvel like lmgrmlging tlmm the distinction «if having their merit, and llllhlit' sm'- \‘ico so i'ommiizod. :J'I'ï¬.
