The past few years have seen the greatest economic upheaval ill mod- ern history. The problems of states- menship were never-more serous or Gfhcult, and it has been a source 0d p-ide and gratification to Conserva- tives to note the lead which the Bennett administration has shown in such vitally important matters as Intro-Empire trade expansion.

“ Canada's trade progress has been Jnoetcncouragmg, and there is every Mason to believe that this progress will be continued.

A Halifax contemporary points out that all tile parliamentary changes that have taken place as s result of by-elections 1n the past three years have left the House of commons standing almost exactly where it was immediately following the general elections of 1930.

In that election the Conservatives won 137 seats and the Liberals 88. Today the Conservatives have the some number of seats and the Lb- arsls one less.

The House of commons’ standing as a result of the three by-clectlons lust held is as follows:

It bit the rope by which the piano was supported; the piano crashed to the paving, and was shatte ed beyond all possibility of further use. The dog-qaerhaps a Dog Scout-went on his way rejoicing; he had per- formed his good deed for the day.

The stock argument used by Lib- eral politicians in the recent by- clection campaigns was that the B “ tariff policies were closing the ports of Canada f0 world trade. This was the statement most frequently made by Mr. Mackenzie King and repeated with parrot-like insistence by his followers and party press. we have referred to it before, and purpose doing so again. as it represents the most barefaced distortion of focts made by the leader of any responsible party in the history of Canadian politics. It is unnecessary sgein to review the figures showing the remarkable in- crease in Empire trade in recent months as a. result of the egroemmts negotiated lest year at Ottawa. Our poultry and bacon producers espec- ially ercenvarcbfthonotlne and importance of this increase. mlrthor evidence however, might be cited. The Trade and Comm Depart- ment gives a list of sailings already arranged from Canadian ports in the month of November. Prom Halifax there were the following:

To Liverpool, Ilondon, Manches- ter, Glasgow and other ports in Great Britain nineteen stllnga of White Star, Mh-Iichoster, White Star, Cunard. Dominion, Anchor- Donaldson, Red Star, and lfilers- men-Wilson liners.

Some months ego. during the Wightman Tennis competition be- tween Great Britain and the Unit- ed States, the newspapers report- odthetflisebsenceofl-Henwills Moody was due to troubc with the inst bone in the spine which is st- tached to the hip bone. That this bone was sightly out of place was "rubbing" on the hip bone, was not stated, but Mrs. Moody was unable to play owing to this “low back pain."

However it s rved to call atten- tion to a condition that is very common, and also to the causes of all these cases of low back pain, namely injury or infection, of both.

Unfortunately this is a condition which the X-ray doesn't always disclose, just as one can have a uprained ankle or other joint with ligaments, nerve, bloodvesseb all tom, but the bones apparently in perfect position. The x-ray will show up old arthritic, rheumatic, or inflammatory conditions, which is

helpful in treztment, but real trouble may exist without the X- ray showing it.

Dr. W. Duncan, Cleveland, re- views the rlcords of 500 consecu- tive patlents (taken just as they came) whose chief complaint was pain in the lower part of the back. About 170 were w.m:n who showed a more marked holowing of the lower back than normal, free movement in all directions. but typical pain and discomfort on attemptng to touch toes with knees straight or ‘bending back- wards as far as possible, with ten- derness over 1C8 lwer part of the spine'a.nd the joint connecting the last sp ne bone wth the hip bone. In tbs type of case treatment is rest, avoidance of fatigue. remov- ing any infection (teeth, tonsils. gall biadder, large intcstino), sen- sible eating, appiicaton of heat, with massage a Iittle later, and in a fairly high pzoportion of cases, applying a belt or corset-

Od the 500 paljents, 230 were short thickset men who had done heavy work, and who £10m their early thirtes had had a nwnber of attacks of low back pain (lumba- go) with periods free from pain between attacks.

While the first thought in low back pain is rest nevertheless as three out of every four cases are due to tonsils, sluggish liver-this should bc searched for and prevent further attacks.

Democracy And Monetary Problems

(llllontbly nevley, Bank a Nova Smite)

Use Brahmin Tea Refreshing. as only fresh, pure Orange Pckoe Tea can be.

Cur difficulties today (typified in the monetary problems at pre- sent calling for solution). largely consist m this: that the ordinary voter, with the modfct and quite g ncrl-l education which ls all he has been able to secure. is now confronted with questions that are essentially of a scientific character. m particular, questions of credit and currency have become so com- plicated and obscure (as s result of the countless infer-relations, which Jhesomany threadsblndus all iiogether, in all countries. as mem- lbers of one economic civilisation), that in most countries there are only a few score ‘people, , r , not even as many, who can be said to have understood them fully.

What is democracy to do? ‘The question's at issue cannot be shelv- ed: they must be faced, and the need for facing them is urgent. Wrong decisions, based on miscon- ception of the facts, or a superfl- cial understanding of their bear- ing upon one another, necessarily bring in their train unfortunate consequences; and these are not restricled to governments or to fi- nancial institutions, but are visited upon the ordinary voter, whose cf- forts to gain a living may be thwarted and brought to nothing by wrong monetary policies-

Refuge is not to)» found there- fore, in a refusal to make decisions. The longer choice is postponed, the longer will the consequences of an existing situation be felt. Decis- ions must be made, and the real question is, How shall they be made? The course to be taken is not obvious: indeed, there are sev- eral alternatives

One choice for democracyyis that of abdication. It is, in fact, r0- mwkablc that within the past twenty years demccrecy has van- ished from the face of a large pert of the earth, where democratic in- stltutions existed, ,and in many cases secmed to possess e good deal of vitality, before‘ 1014. ‘m Europe (as a rule by violence) de- mocratc government 9 has been abrogated in all the great countries east of the Rhine and the Alps.
