Shadow For Substance

_ \Vorsc and worse for our farmers under the 'l‘i"eaty. It turns out that the quotas .given are not for Canada only but all importing sources. In a statement issued to the Press Secretary of Agriculture WALLACE said: The new agreement made by a Democratic administration, leaves all protected commodities On the dutiable list, since the Trade Agreements Act forbade lowering duties by more than 5o per cent and specifically prohibited adding to or removing from the free list. While the duty on beef cattle was lowered from 3 to 2 cents a pound on cattle of 70o pounds and over, a quota of 155,000 head was fixed for total importations—not from Canada alone into the United SlZliCSNTlllS slight tariff reduction and the small quantity to he atlmitteil, less than 1 per cent of the (lOIlICSllC production, would not be noticed he said. Mr. \VALLAci-: said that the United States imported, during the prosperous years of the last decade, more than twice as much (Tanailizin cream as will be admitted under the quota assigned in the new agreement. So there you arc—\\'hat have our farmers got but the shadow?

Britain's i Policy

Britain's future foreign policy is a subject of absorbing interest and considerable doubt. France has ent red into treaty with Russia which falls to be confirmed by parliament next month, and if Britain's entcnte is to be maintained, she will have to make a similar agreement. On the other hand Germany is violently antagonistic to Russia, yet Britain has no prospect of preventing an arms race without an amicable arrangement with Berlin. Then the Japan-Chinese situation seems to make Anglo-Russian cooperation un- avoidable. Russia appears to see the necessity for this and with amazing swiftness is changing over from a Communist regime to conditions increas- ingly approximating the nonnal lines of capitalist (levelopment, as is illustrated now by the return to a system of stabilized currency related to the gold standard, and payment of wages in accord- ance with worth and output.

C [Th8 ri' Potato Imports

For many years imports from Canada were the dominating factor in the Cuban market, writes Mr. G. S. MAcDoNALn, Acting Trade Commissioner in Havana in the C oniaiiercial Intelligence Journal. During the past half- lh-cadc, however, her position has been ivcaken- (‘ll materially for edible potatoes as a result of the development of the domestic industry and ihe decline in buying power in the island repub- lic. Within the six years from 1929 to 1934 Can- adian exports of table potatoes to Cuba fell from 57,563,591 kilos to 968,921 kilos, while those from the United States fell from 26,279,546 kilos to 16,182,910 kilos in the same period. (One kilo equals 2.2 pounds). During those six years im- ports of seed potatoes from both countries fluc- tuated considerably as a result of the unsettled conditions obtaining in Cuba and the low buying power of its planters. By the end of 1932 Can- ada had increased her exports to Cuba by almost 10o per cent. over those of 1929, while the United States experienced a. fall of 75 per cent, recover-

' ing ‘by the end of 1934 to about 12o per cent. of

the 1929 position; Canada fell to the 1929 level in 1933 but exceeded it by over 25 per cent. in 1934. Canada now occupies the place formerly

held by the United States as a supplier of seed-

potatoes, largely op the ground 0f quality and of their condition on arrival; in the case of edible potatoes, domestic plantings and the tarifi‘ pre- ference accorded to the United States have prac- tically eliminated Canadian competition.

Bread Upon The Waters

It takes money to make money, Mqitreal Board of Trade and Chamber of Commerce are rediscovering. Mayor I-Iovm: went to St. Louis this fall and dramatimlly extended an invitation to the American Legion to hold their 937 con- vention in Montreal. A committee sent from Montreal to New York Legion hciltlquartfif-‘i finds it will cost at least $20,000 gift t0 the American Legion to induce them to accept the invitation, and another $30,000 at least to receive them, entertain them and treat them properly while they are in Montreal. These figures are based on the expenditures made by St. Louis which had the convention this year. They spent $35,000 to receive and entertain the convention. There were about 270,000 people ivcut to St. Louis, including delegates and their wives and families. just how much money they left in St. Louis is (lifficult to calculate exactly, hut the hank deposits iii the city went up about six mil- lion dollars during the time the convention was

the boldest and most adroit stroke of all.

' _Most 9f the news, and the explanation of it, is coining up from Japanese sources, but the significance of it, say the vancguvgf Province, is so clear that we are hardly obliged to read between the lines. The new movement is represented—but only perfunctorily—as a demandby the people of North China for aut- onomy in government. 'We are told that thirtv influential organizations of North China, iri- Cllldlllg Bllflmbers of commerce and bankers’ guilds, have united to denounce the Kucmin- tang. But the Japanese informants hardly trouble to maintain the fiction of anative re- volt and uprising of the North Chinese people, and we‘ are told, quite as a matter cf course, that Japanese military commanders throughout all the area included in" t e new coup have been ordered to prevent the Nanking Govern- ment from any interference.

According to official returns the total vote polled in the late Federal election by the three prairie provinces was 856,943. Of this vote the Liberals obtained 307,551, whileithg combined vote of the other parties was 549,392. The present Government represents 35% of the Prairie electors who went to the polls on October 14th. Throughout the whole Dominion Mr_ MAci-ziauzn: KING obtained the votes of less than 30% of th; egctgs on the register.

There was a. sharp advance in the export of butter in October which rose to 64,967 cwt. at $1,504,786 from 641 cwt. at $14,002 a year ago. The amount to the United Kingdom was 64,121 cwt. at $1,483,695. Cheese exports decreased in volume but increased in value. Last month it was 130.503 cwt. at $1,630,494 compared with 150,- 288 cwt. at $1,536,156 a year ago. The amount to the United Kingdom was 127,249 cwt. at $1,584,041, the next largest purchasers being: Belgium 892 cwt. at $11,432, United States 481 cwt. at $7,853,000, Jgmzicaaéoo cwt. at $6,319.

Attorney-General ROEBUCK is making the HEPBURN Government toe the line in boycotting Government House functions, resulting in the cabinet as a whole refusing to accept the invi- tation of the Lieutenant-Governor to attend a dinncrin honour of the new Governor-general.

PAIN FROM BHEUMATISM AFIEB CAUSE l8 REMOVED

While 1t la definitely known lllfll-

the removal of infected teeth, ton- sils, and gall bladder. and the cor- rection of constipation will give re- lief in rheumatism, there are a number of cases where the symp- toms “hang on", or where there are attacks of pain despite the removal of the infected parts and correction of constipation. This ls, of course, discouraging to the patient. but. the reasons for these attacks are now becoming more generally known. The first polnt. to remember 1s that Just as a factory that closes down still has goods on its shelves to be gradually disposed of, so also are the poisons from these infected parts (teeth, tonsils, gall blcdde and large in- testine) still in the blood, glands, and intestine itself, to be gradually removed over a. period of weeks or even years. And until these poisons are removedor the body forces have overcome them, pains and aches will occur from time to time.

Further, there ls often, perhaps always, some damage done to parts by rheumatism, and it takes very

little-dampness for instance-to cause a. return of some of the symptoms.

Thus we find patients for many years alter the removal of _the cause of the infection, able to forecast the iveuthér and tell as correctly as o. barometer whether or not. there ls rain or fine weather ahead, because they have or have not some pains or aches 1n muscles and Joints.

Strange as it seems there are also a. number of patients, clear of rheu- matic pains or aches most. of the time who will have a. return of these aches or pains lf they under- go any emotional disturbance such as fear, worry, anger, or other de- pressing emotion. .— _

There are others who find that certain foods-flab, eggs, meat, and others-can bring on these pains even in warm clear weather. They lipve skin tests made with certain suspected foods which cause large weals tlilves) 1f "positive." By leav- ing these foods out of their dlel. or eating them 1n very small quantities they are kept free of these rheu- matte pains. ,

The first. thought is of course to get 11d of the cause-bad teeth, ton- sils, gall bladder-and then try to avoid those things that may bring back the y f ‘ampnees, coldness, emotional disturbances ppd foods to which one is “sensi-

ve."
