When a patient bard of hearing has submitted to months of treat.- ment, perhaps to operation, and finally has settled down to get what comfort possible by wearing some form of hearing aid and then hears of some furtlici- method od restoring hearing, he may do one of two things, ta) grasp for it. as a drowning man will grasp for a straw, or 1b) make up his mind that n0 method can help tum in his present. condition.

A motorist of Buffalo on a drunken driving charge has been convicted on the “scientific evidence" of a young doctor. 'l'he conviction marked the first time in the city's history that a jury upheld “evideiic-e" obtained from tlie de- fendant's own blood stream. Police pinned their case upon the testimony of Dr. Walter W, jet- ter, chemistry instructor in the L7iiivcrsity- of Buffalo Medical School. Dr. letter told the jury that tests of 1\-lcs'si1ia's blood the night he was arrested showed a content of .28 per cent alcohol, This .28 per cent represents 10 to 20 drinks of too-proof whiskey taken in quick sticcessitiii,” he explained.

In 1037, however. there were 14.9 live births per 1.000 population which is a r1n0~tcntl1 of I per cent rise over I936. Dur- ing December permits were issued for 9.764,- 000 pounds worth of new construction, which is 12.5 per cent more than in December. 10313, in- dicating that the consistent decline of the 1irevi- nus nine months has been checked.

Uneasincss about the internation- al situation is reflected in Holland's decision to continue reinforcing the army not. on.y at, home but, also tin the Dutch East, Indies. A year ago, coincident with the strengthening by Britain ot the Singapore base, Holland undertook strengthening the Eflst, Indies. A new plan pro- vided for the practical renovation of the naval iilr force and a con- siderable extension of the military air force. Early this year, the pro- zriim was further expanded. The defence budget for the Dutch East Indies was raised from £147,000 to nearly £2,000,000. The new ali- de- fence proizram submitted to tlie Volksriiiid in Bauivia, provided for; am addlton of 200 bombers and re- coiiiiaisiinde aircraft. during the next. three years. Dornier flying boats capable of carrying 3,500 pounds ot bombs ivere included in this number. Witli the completion of this program, Holland hopes to commend tlie strongest, air force of any European power in the Far EasL-Timcs of India,

Warning From The Bench

(Ottawa Jouniial)

Chief Justice Rose of the High Court of Ontario spoke slernly mid to tlie point tn addressing a T101110 grand jury on t-Lc subject. of Manslaughter cases art-jug tram traffic accidents.

Careless drivers, he said, are “pests that mu t be extermiiiuted.. “Persons breaking the law must be certain they will be punishcd. Per- sons on our highways are going to be safe as soon as we 1111 inake up our minds that reckless driving is going to stop..."

His Lordship found no fault with the laws. but rut-her with the 111.11- tude of the public towards their en- fmocment. Traffic rnfely would fol- low, he said, if all u! us were "ready to assist in tlie enforcement of our laws." In the mass we show a shack- lng indifference to the drmdlul re- cord of traffic accident». In Ottawa last year 18 through the operation of motor ve- hicles. We say i-t is too bad but what can we do about it! If Lliiit mmiy persons had been killed in flies, or industrial accident". o1- by the street. cars. we shrtuld find thmgs to do. ways and means of improving so black a record.

Boy Scout’s Anniversary

(Si. John Telegraph Journal) Great Britain has given ma!!! 1111113,; of value to the world. but. periia-pi no movement; originating '1xi the United Kingdom has pene- trated to so many countries of the earth, nor exerted such beneficial influences upon the lives o! you-is people than has the Boy Scout movement which to-day observes m, thirtieth anniversary o1 its foun-da tion .

It was on Jamie 24, 1908, that l

Sir Robert. Baden- well formed the first troop of Boy Scouts in England, following a trial exper- mentai camp the previous year. The movement_ spreld WW1 N“ markable rapidity, and by 1910 there were 123,000 members in the British Empire alone, and two years later" the organization was granted a Royal charter.

More than 100,000 Scouts or former Scouts sewed in His Majesty's forces during the Great War. 10.000 of whom gave thetr lives. Some 23.000 other ' scouts under service age rendered v-alll- aible assistance at home, principally as coastwiitcbers, relieving coaut- guai-dsanen who were called up for service afloat.

The motive behind the move- ment ‘is the training o1‘ boys in the e sentitfs of good citizenship. The method adopted—and this is the

able success and for its appeal to youth-dc that of nctlve ss-‘i-ex- pression and tlie desire to learn on the nrirt rf the boy, rnth-ci‘ than his passive reception oi’ instruction. The scope is unlimited by class. creed. color or political distinc- tions. The movement 1s non-mill- tary. non-class. non-political and interdenemiiiational.

Three years later he broke new ground by being the first. manager of tlie first branch of tiny Cair- iidiun bank to be established out- side Canada. Great Britain or the USA. The occasion was the open- iliR of the Kingston, Jamaica. branch of the Bank of Novn Sco- Lia. From the outset it. proved a profitable venture.

For his services to Canada. and the Empire duriniz the war, W11- liam Stavert received a knight- llOUCl. Dtiriiuz the late years of the war he was a. member of the Bri- tish minis-try of information and was accounting officer to H. M 'TX‘8flSllX,V.

Most Canadians remember Sti- William for the. number and variety at commissioner-ships he undertook following the war. These included the famous Royal Com- mission which probed sviiges of Dominion Coal Co. miners in Cape Breton in 1921; his Job as receiv- er of Aliroma Steel Corp, and his tncltislcn as a member o! the Royal Commission which investi- gated and reorganized Newfound- lancVs finances in 1932.

Destructive Radio Policy

The Canadian public never ex- pected too much of this Corpora- tion. but they dtd expect an im- provement in the quality of radio entertainment. and a gradual re- duction in the volume 0d radio ad- vertising. This advertising lied be- come a nuisance. besides being, tn a. number o! instances, distasteful mid offensive. and it was tnturtnl 1m important. branch of the nu- tioivs business. The rwults have been disappointing, and quite re- cently the situation has been ail- m-avntcd materially by a substan- tial extension of American broad- casting tn Canada by way of the Corporation's network, this exten- sion beintz accompanied by n pro- portionate increase in the flood of American advertising over the air. This is not only objectionable to the owners of receiving sets. but: is highly lnjurous and dun- zerous to those lri Caniida who are engaged legitimately in the ad- vertising business, ii business which the Corporation appears to be de- termined to destroy. Thus we hove a nationalization project. which was intended to develop Canadian broadcasts of high quiility and to

emancipatc the Canadian public who iiaii been to a. 18.1139 extent previously dependent upon the

American broadcasts, and unable to escape the more undesirable features of those broadcasts. but which has degenerated into a cut- throat, competition with establish- ed business interests 1n Canada.

The Coroporation, presumably, has found itself in need of more revenue than is provided by the present. $2 licence fee. To obtain this revenue it. appfiars to have de- cided upon selling advertising time at: rates below those chargeable by private stations, and this policy applies to advertislnll Whlfih 01*‘ trlnates, not in Canada, but in the United suites. Lt this process of uiiderselllni: is facilitated by use of the cmnmunications of the Can- adian National Railways System. the situation is Just that much worse.
