ably directed, of those who are boring from within to wreck our democratic system, and we have a condition of very grave danger and con- cern.

The general indiffcicnce appears to be more prevalent in urban than in rural commun- itles. This is usually the case, as underlined in a quotation given from the Reminiscence: of lhc late Sir Richard Cartwright, published in i912, alter forty-eight years in the House of Commons. Sir Richard wrote:

"No one thing has been made more clear to me during my political experience than the extreme ignorance of a vost number of other- Wise intelligent and well-informed professional and businessmen on the political doings of the day. . . . "There is curiously enough a very great deal more interest taken and a great deal more accurate idea of the aims and proceedings of the several political parties, among the better class of farmers- than among the so-called high- ly educated classes.

"l am myself a city man but have always represented agricultural constituencies, and from the very lirst I was immensely struck with the attention and intelligence shown by form- ers at political meetings. They would listen for hours to an analysis of public expenditure and remember what was told. Even after 20 years I found many remembering what was said. "

"As a whole farmers are earnest, thought- ful people, intelligent and well read in Can- adian political history. If they have a fault if is in staunch devotion to their respective par- ties, which sometimes ifade them condone poli-

tical conduct of their leaders which in their hearts they really condemned." Our parliamentarians should encourage

their constituents to apply themselves in this mariner to public affairs, and also raise- their own sights in their appeals for political support. We are living in tim-es when improvement along these lines is imperative. Unless there is great- er realization of the duties involved in citizen- ship under constitutional government, and a more zealous care for its preservation, we shall inevitably lose all our freedoms and be swamped by bureaucracy and totalitarianism. This has happened in many other countries in recent times, and the same danger signals are coming in sight for us.

Good News For Diabetics

The Russian medical authorities in occupied Germany discovered diabetics were breaking all the rules of diet and treatment, and yet suf- fering no evil consequences.

Research starting from this fact may, ac- cording to medical opinion, result in a new angle of approach to the whole question of remedies. ._

According to orthodox medical practice hitherto, no insulin-accustomed diabetic could survive deprivation of insulin arid a diet in which turbo-hydrates predominate.

Russian doctors first assumed that the grad- unln-ess of the transition from farmer standards (beginning with the pie-war time when Goering first demanded guns lll5fifid of butter) coiled into play some rczuperative powers of the hu- man body, re-cstablishing the disturbed balance between gland excretians and metabolism. They set to work to discover what the unknown factor was.

Teams of researchers made a close study of the patients at specialized treatment centres. They were able to report that first tests tended to confirm the theory formed by practising phy- sicians.

Diabetes, it was thought, might be cured

under dietetic conditions varying little from the normal and without resort to insulin. Treat- ment would involve an extremely regular life, Including a great deal of manual labor in the open air and a regular check by doctors. These researches were conducted and the ‘treatment based on them was evolved under the auspices of the central administration of health for the Russian zone of Gcrmany._

lhthima Tax Refunds

income tax officials report that refunds from past overpayments by taxpayers are "well up to schedule." As the public does not know what "schedule" has been adopted by the depart-

ment, it cannot judge on this point but it can judge on the long delays in repayment from plr- serial aitpsrionce. In this regard the situation is, most unsatisfactory; it hos been the subject of nionv complaints because it constitutes s flag-

from sales of liquor for altogether different stat- ed purposes. Prince Edward island, like Kansas, is a place that can be counted to keep on vot- ing dry, so iotig as no shortage of drinking liquor results.”

It will be gratifying to all concerned that the Post Office department netted a surplus of Sl0,905,9'l3 in the year ended March 3i last. it indicates that the time cannot be fcirr distant when an all-round reduction in postal rat-es will be announced.

This is a fortunate Province in .more senses than one, but especially as regards climate. ln both Ontario and Quebec, as well as in many parts of N.

Here ploughing seems completedhand new green grass has already made its appearance.

Helen Petravna Blavotsky, Russian theoso- phisf, died this date i891; she enjoyed an in- t-ernational reputation as a mystic, and had been initiated into Buddhism, which she professed until she founded in Ui.

It is understood that at the recent session cf the Legislature, caucus consideration was given to the increased cost of living for rural members visiting Charlottetown, and it was de- cided that such members would be entitled to an additional $200 for expenses during the session. This means that those members tok- Jng advantage of this bonus obtained $600 for the six weeks’ session, $200 of which will be tax free.

King Haakon Vll of Norway will celebrate his 75th birthday on August 3rd of this year. Plans for the presentation at that time of a nation-wide expression of esteem were an- mounced in all Norwegian papers simultaneously when all national organizations joined in an ap- peal for subscriptions to a King Haakon birth- day fund. The list of sponsors published at that time includes m-embers of the Cabinet and Par- liament, the Bishops of Norway, heads of na- tional organizations, and a host of county and city officials. The appeal is directed to all Norwegian citizens bath at home and abroad and is described as an opportunity for each one to participate individually in an expression of esteem. King Haakon will determine to what purpose the funds are to b-e put. .

~ Rt. Hon. Herbert Morrisoiiiis quite satis- fied with the attainments of the British Labour Government of which he is a member. Dealing with the government's objectives, Mr. Morrison told his audience: "Being realistic does not necessarily mean being gloomy; it means being proud of yourselves if you've done something worth being proud about—and we have. We've made the best job of demobilization of any country in the world, the best job of house build- ing, the best job of changing over t_o o peace- time economy without ubandoning social justice. Ailtl you can be proud ofthe way you stood up to the furious winter's rages. We have dons all these things because ws have had o government that has a goal that it sticks to, s goal chosen by s majority of the people."

The United States is the chi sinner in the imposition of u-Yrrtar- sortable tariffs. .1! that country is prepared to make substantial reduq- tiolis, other nations will likely foi- lox suit. But if the United Statqs maintains her tariff walls as in the Past. she cannot expect that other naticmls will lower theirs. In that event the strangulation or intern . tloiinl trade will plunge the word once more into economic confusion. The meeting at Geneva is of gre t importance to the future of all tie nations which will be represented there. - Toronto Daily Smr.
