A new wrinkle in the diagnosis JL the various ills which afflict us all was recently reported to the American Society for the Ad- ianccment of science by a Boston doctor. It is that many human ailments start from a sinister - but nevertheless enchanting — virus known familiarly as the doi- lar. Your queasy stomach, back- 1CLl(‘S, or even an irregular heart- beat may actually be variations of what Dr. William Kaufman calls ‘money sickness", the most common nsychosomatic illness of our limos. ‘ The point is, if you have head- :lCllt‘S they may be traced directly in having too much money, or more commonly, too little. You may be a miser, a gambler. or even 1 chronic bargain hunter. all of which pursuits involve money. The handling of the stuff can bring on rocks in the joints. ulcers. and zmotional disturbances. Doctors should be constantly on the watch for ailments traceable to the pocket- book. loaded or empty. By the way.

Take this opportunity to become familiar with your clinic. with your mental hospital. But, how- ever. let us not meditate on the gloomy side of the picture for this week but let us take a posi- tive approach, let us see what is being done. what can be done. what is known about mental ill- ness, what can be done to pre- vent it.

(CP)—'I'he Junior Chamber of Commerce of Canada will launch a country-wide counter-assault on the May Day propaganda tactics of the Commu- nlsts Saturday. Under the slogan “May Day—- Pray Day", Canadian Jaycees will join sister organizations in the United States, Mexico. the Philip- pines and other countries in a drive to make May 1 an international day of prayer for world peace, The program for 270 Canadian junior chambers and junior hoards of trade has been arranged by a national committee headed by members of the Lancaster branch. The committee says all churches and synagogues throughout Canada have been asked to hold services for world peace in support of the program on the first sabbath in May. COME-TO-CHURCH MONTH The observance also launches "come to church" month. Jaycees are urged to attend religious ob- servancee with their families regu- larly during May. and encourage others to do so. President Harry F. Smith of To- ronto said that through the pro- gram the Jaycem would "exert the most. powerful force at our com- mand—prayer—-toward the search for peace."

This was the first cor.- servatlon convention on a Canada- wide scale to be held ill 48 years. It was sponsored by the Canadian Forestry Association, assisted by the Canadian Chamber of Com- merce, the Agricultural Institute of Canada. the Engineering Institute of Canada and the Canadian Iiisti- tute of Forestry. The convention discussed the conservation of our renewable natural resources, with special re- ference to soil. water and wild life. Stress was laid on the fact that whereas our oil wells, our mines and our coalficlds are expendable and will one day all be worked out. our forests and our waters and our wildlife can be replen- ished by nature and with reason- able assistance from mankind will always yield their present bounty. The prime objective of the con- vention was to bring to the at- tention of the public the urgent need to conserve these riches, not only for ourselves but for future ““ generations of Canadians. In this the convention was, say its spon- sors. a huge success. Whether it was an equal success in impressing this need on govern- ments at the federal, provincial and municipal level, the sponsors are less sure. For conservation needs co-ordination level, the sponsors are less sure. For conservation‘ needs co-ordaniation, and co- ordination needs federal guidance if not intervention. United Provinces’! Canada, like many other nations, has succeeded in submerging her national independence sufficiently to Join in international organiza- tions such as the United Nations and the North Atlantic 'I\"eaty Organization, to conserve peace.‘ But it seems that our provincial governments are so jealous of their petty and retarding rights that they are unwilling to make this country into a United Prov- inces Organization. An example of this was vividly revealed by the recent rhubarb over the pollution of North Saskatchewan River. This pollution was apparently caused in Alberta, and its ill effects were felt in Saskatchewan and Manitoba. But in spite of repeated requests from Prince Albert, the federal government claimed that it had no constitutional right to take ac- tion to protect. one province again another in this matter. ‘ The Resources Conference show- ed that there is an acute need for some superior authority to regulate exploitation of our renew- able natural resources, so that some users should not be permitted to destroy their present or future use- fulness to others and indeed to themselves. Times Have Changed The liaplinzard exploitation of the Red Indian era and even of the Lumber Barons era is not tolerable today, it was shown. Us- ing our country’: fine rivers as open sewers for domestic sewage and industrial waste. as happened in the Redskin days, is today killing off the fish and jeopardizing the health of Canadian men, women and children. The man with the axe who plundered our foresu. with no thought of cons-zrvatlon by replanting and by rotation felling has no place in modern Canada, it was also shown. Going further ahead to the in- dustrlallsed Canada of the mid- twentieth century, R.L. I-Ialg Brown, the famous naturalist from B. C., declared that is the present plans of.’ the hydro-electric engineers are realized, he expects to see the wealth-bringing salmon runs on the Pacific coast river wiped out within his lifetime. Dean J. W. B. sieam. of the University of Toronto, explained. that pine lumber production in Ontario has dwindled from its peak of 800 million board feet in 1008 to less than one-sixth of that in recent years: without conservation, the province's mcrchanteble sup- piles of red and white pine will be exhausted within 20 years. This threat to our forest in- dustries which is today our larg- est. employer, and the threat to our farmers through the denudlng of our watersheds nnrl consequent soil crosinn. and the destruction of our salmon industry ’iind of the other fish species which are the backbone of our tourist in- dustry, call for urgent government action, in the views of delegates at the Conservation Conference. This in turn calls for stai‘A‘smnn- like action. policy and planning of which Ottawa has to date stood in fear before that white elephant called Provincial Rights. - Bacxacua For quick i-omfortin help for nackaehr.
