New Brunswick Election

Following immediately upon the Quebec general election, the Dysart Government has sprung a general election campaign in New Brunswick. Monday, Xov. 20, is flamed as the election flatter-just a day or two more than the Ililectitni Act requires for the calling of a gen- eral appeal to the people. The (ioverntnent does not have to go until next jiiue, but the excuse is that it is desirable to get on at once with the work of co-operating with the federal author- ities in it: war effort. which would be disrupt- ed \\'."l"" the clccti-m postponed until ncxt spring. 51mm‘ ii is zuiticipzitctl that the ivar will 18$! three vetrs. the same excuse might have been arlvattcetl by the Ditplcssis (ilovt-rnment for springing the contest iii Quebec

Rejected Invitations

Upon the outbreak of the war the Nazi Gov- ernment issued invitations t0 its expelled iioii- Aryan rltlrtors and scientists to return; their hiuli crime of not lacing blood-brothers to Herr jlr-fm- “titlltl then be overlooked until it became safe to drive them out again- _ _

Xotv, savs the Winnipeg lirce Press, it is re- ported that the Nazi authorities are trying everywhere on the continent, where trade can still be carried on, to re-cstabhsh connections with the former agents and representatives of German business houses who lost their cori- nections because of their nori-korrhc allcé-Sllfy-

That their call will be m vain as in the earlier appeal, may be safely as- sumed. p , _

These developments are an indication of one of the manv impomlcrable factors that will on- erate everywvhere against Nazi success. In the last war Germanv had all over the world power- ful friends and wcll-ivishers deriving from Ger- many, if not of Herman blood, who were often in a position to do a good turn tor what they con-idcrerl their fathcrlantl.

Yhen there are good reasons for the All!“ bllymgjls much as possible from coun- tries from which Germany would like to get sup- plleS-_ The proposal to ship wood pulp from Russia to Britain and the intensified efforts to secure products from the Scandinavian and Balkan countries are examples of the attempt to divert trade as much as possible from Ger- many; and so contribute to the effectiveness of the blockade. On the other hand, Germany is endeavouring to establish a trade block-ark of neutral European states against the United Kingdom.

As showing the drop in exports from the United States to Great Britain and France af- ter the Armistice, it is pointed out that the total value of such exports, in round figures, in r917, was three billion dollars, and almost as much in r918. Last year about 700 million dollars’ worth of goods only were sent over. There is bound to be an improvement of sizable propor- tions as a result of the present W31‘, but, says Mr. “linkler, it would be erroneous to assume that “a spectacular boom” is at hand in the United States. He adds that there are more than twice as many industrial plants in opera- tion in Canada as there were in 1914, and sug- gests that this Dominion and other Empire countries will play the major role in supplying British requirements,

At the time of the last war not a few cap- able young men took to the woods, instead of to the colours, and some of them even became farm- ers and potato-growers to claim exemption. It is not so today. Th0 present generation of youths are brave, patriotic and self-sacrificing. But ivhat of those who previously ran away and prospered?

True education is religious education, other- wise one of the greatest educators in the world would be Adolf Ilitler, said the Rev. Hugh C. McCarthy, S._l., rector of Loyola College, in an atldress given at the Business l/Vomeifs Unit of the (ftttholic \Vomcn‘5 League, of Montreal. If man has no spiritual destiny, then he is a very puny creature and the only way of making him- self important is to baud with others of his kind. proclaim “i-acial" rights and seek through mass education to establish domination through lies and the brczikiiig of his pledged word, the speak- cr declared. “llitlcr proposes to treat us to ivliat he calls ‘the most frightful blood bath in history,’ Father McCarthy reminded his audience in thc Windsor llall- “Ile is educating the youth of his trouutry to just that ideal." Another who folloivs his principles to their logical conclusion -—TlO (jod, no religion, because religion is a drug. the doctrine of brute force, lies, subterfuge, is Stalin. he added. If iuzui has no spiritual destiny, then Ilitler and Stalin are right, Father Mc- Carthy said, and their stand is more logical than that of parents who regard education as a means for the material and social advancement of their Ylllkllfi". while paying lip service to religion. "Stalin and Hitler have turned out God. So have so many of our parents and educators. If God is not in the picture, then brute force reigns supreme. Certainly Ilitlcr and Stalin in their appeals to their youth are much more logical than the parent ivho plans education for his

investments, especially as she is now deprived

Lchild and leaves out religion."

ABI COLD VACCINES HELPFUL. '

You are suffering with s "cold" when you meet a friend or sc- qdB-lntance who, instead of recom- melldmk some home remedy, sug- gests that you see Dr. Blank and get some Injections - "cold" tn- ectlons. He tells you that. before e 000k these cold lnjectlons he suffered with s dozen colds CV81‘? Year and now he dld not have more trim one cold each year. You are about to take hts sdvtce when You meet another friend who has taken these injections given by this Dr. Blank and he certainly has ls many colds as before taking the injections.

What. about these injections to prevent colds? ‘rhere isn't any question but that they help many suffers but the results obtained by physicians have been so varied -— 5011119 10 Percent cures and others 50 Dercenb - that no fair or satis- faetory figures have been obtained l0 18-1‘. It 1.1 interesting to read of the results obtained by Dre. J. J. and M. J. Hauser, Detroit, as re-

‘the 200 that had received cold ln-

letter of the alphabe‘. should no; 'l9°lled ln Archives of Otolaffm-

gology, Chicago.

Drs. Hauser gave cold vaccines bv injection under the skin to the first ten persons, into the skln to "19 lleXt fill. and placebos —p1a1n sterfle water —' to the following ten. 'I‘lits arrangement was re- peated until there were 100 pers- ons 1n each group. After thls num- ber was reached, the vaccine was given by injection under the skin to the next hundred who came to the eltntc. The first injections were given during the third week in October and the last ones by the middle of December. During the last two weeks 1n May each one that had taken the fu‘l number of injections was questioned. Infor- rnatlon was obtained from 18B of

jecttons under the skin, from 05 of the 100 who had received cold injections tnto the skin, and from 86 of the 100 who had received the injection of sterile water.

Of those who had received the cold injections under the skin, 74 percent said they had fewer colds, 6 percent had no colds at all, 1B Percent had the same number, and 2 percent had more colds. Of those who had received coid 1n- jectlons into the skin, 52 percent, had fewer colds, 11 percent no colds at all, 33 percent had some number as before, and 3 percent had more colds.

What; about those who received sterile water injections? About. 60 percent, had fewer colds. B percent, had no colds at sll, 31 percent; hut the same number. and 2 percent. had mor eeolds.

Rom these futures ft. would ap- pear that. subcutaneous - under the skln —- injections of "cold" vaoctnes are worth trying by those who suffer with frequent colds.
