The Meee rable |

Surfeited and perplexed by the multitude of theories advanced as to the
underlying and basic cause of this world economic depression, and equally
surfeited and perplexed by the multitude of suggestions, ideas and plans
advanced as the only means whereby the depression can be ended and a
permanent cure effected, tens of thousands of people are becoming callous
and skeptical of all economic doctors. More and more people are asking
themselves whether this very large problem, vital to the Welfare of every
individual and to the very existence of the nation and the civilization of |
the world, is being approached from the right angle.

To an ever’ increasing extent people are asking whether the provision |
of old age pensions to prevent poverty and suffering in old age is the solu- |
tion, or whether that solution is to be found in the creation of conditions
whereby men And women can through their own efforts and by shift and
saving make necessary provision themselves for their declining years. Pco-
ple are inquiring whether the provision of this and that Government main-
tained social service to provide for their needs,—and all proyided for out of
taxation,—is not merely attempting to cover up “sores” and “doctor” the
patient, instead of making the patient well and capable of caring for himself.

People are thinking and king whether it is not true that, just so
long as taxes are piled upon taxes to provide for these social services, the
very burden of those taxes is operating to make it impossible for them to
take necessary care of themselves and families and make wise provision for
their future.

Mankind must work, and produce, and save against the time when their
working days are over. In a word, the business of the world must be carried
on, and the more business that is transacted, the more it is produced and
exchanged for other products, the better it is for all concerned. Consequent-
ly, the fewer restrictions imposed upon the carrying on of the world’s busi-
ness, the better. This great truth is sinking deeper into the minds of men.

Therefore, without further comment, we quote an editorial article ap- |
pearing in one of Canada’s most widely circulated tsagazines, a publication
haying no political party affiliations, but which discusses Canadian and |
world problems in a fair and impartial manner. Under the title appearing |
above, it says: rel

‘These are the days in which we are regaled or surfeited with economic |
theories—some ancient and some modern, some untried and some exploded, |
some original and some borrowed, some thriving and some still-born, some |
springing like Minerva, full-armed from the head of Jupiter, others old and |
decrepit no longer fitted for service in a changed world, some that promise
better social conditions and more enduring prosperity, and others that if
followed would surely lead to anarchy and moral ruin. It may be profitable |
to consider some of these theories at another time. To-day it is more fitting
that we should concern ourselves with a concrete problem—one that is |
growing to be more and more serious, and which must be solved if any of
the economic theories now advanced can be rendered workable.

“The basic industry in Canada is agriculture. The basic product in
agricultural is wheat. The basic need in the wheat industry is marketing.
The basic condition of marketing is exchange values. The basic condition of
exchange is open trade. That is lacking at the present time. For four years
we have deliberately closed the door. We have thereby encouraged coun-
tries which might have exchanged goods with us to grow their own grain.
Now we are shut out—some people say forever. True, of late there has been
‘an attempt to undo the mischief, but there has been no apparent success. |
An accidental shortage of food for stock in the United States made it pos-|
sible to dispose of some low-grade products, but the granaries are still filled
with the best the country has produced. The figure has been given as 286,- |
000,000 bushels. We do not say this is correct, but the exact figure is not |
essential. Should we sell 4,000,000 bushels a week from now till harvest we |

sale as that. |

“It is beyond our wisdom to say which jis better—to hang on to the
surplus in the hope of better days, or to dump a lot on the market at great- |
ly reduced prices in hope of clearing the way for next year’s supply. That is|
the problem for Mr. McFarland, the government, and the farmers to settle. |
ing it in discussing general economic theories. They need to be discussed
without doubt but just now they are secondary. The first problem for Can-
ada is the restoration of world trade. This means the re-writing of the
tariff schedule. Is our government prepared to re-write it? Is Mr. Stevens|
prepared? Is the opposition?”

Crew Drilling Tunnel From Opposite

A direct bull’s-eye was scored by

when they met in the centre of a

The bore was 3.8 miles long, 17

HIS LUMBAGO HAS
NOT COME BACK

Keeps Free Of It With

Kruschen

There can be no doubt about the
effectiveness of the remedy this man
uses against lumbago. Read his
jetter:—

“About four years ago, I had a bad)
attack of lumbago. After being in)
hospital for two weeks taking heat)
treatment, I started taking: FerUSCn ED
Salts. Since then, I am happy to say,|
I have not been troubled with lum-
bago. I shall still continue taking |
Kruschen to be sure the lumbago
won't come back.’—A. C. C. |

Why is it that Kruschen is so effec-

| tive in keeping lumbago at bay?)

Simply because it goes right down to
the root of the trouble, and removes
the cause, which is an impure blood-)
stream. The six salts in Kruschen_
kesp the bloodstream pure and,
vigorous by promoting a clockwork
regularity of all the organs of elim-)
ination.

Human Thought Photographed

Workings Of A’ Man’s Mind Is
Recorded By Russian Device

Human thought has been photo-
graphed.

A band of irregular lines traced on
€@ rensitiye plate in the Moscow In-
stitute of the Brain is the world's
first record in black and white of the
actual working of man’s mind during
® period of sustained mental effort.

The Soviet Union's new “thought-
camera,” a delicate instrument which
picks up the tiny electric waves sent
out by the brain and records them
photographically, was the device used
to expose, for the first time, what
happens inside the skull when a man
thinks.

The currents vary drastically
when the brain is idle and when it is
active, the machine has proved. And
practical application of the novel
method of “thought recording,” in
the opinion of the scientists who con-
duct the institute may eventually
lead to perfected diagnosis of mental
ailments with a far higher percent-
age of cures than to-day.

One of the institute's staff—his
name cannot be disclosed—sat fac-
ing the elaborate machinery of the
“thought-camera.”” Two tiny needles
were pressed down to the bone of the
skull, through the flesh of the scalp
just above the templés.

Wires carried the tiny electric
currents of his idle mind, picked up
by the needles, to a transformer
