Real danger in raw milk proper realization of the amount of disease spread in Canada raw milk should bring unanimous support for Pasteur ution. It is a menace that has been ignored far too Long and there is urgent need of action to safeguard this most important of All foods and to close what has been conclusively proven to be an open door to disease. There have been 48 epidemics involving cases of sick Tess mostly in the Large Canadian the last 27 years were definitely proven to have been milk borne. There undoubtedly other epidemics from the same source in other places which were Al investigated and proven. The proven epidemics included 35 of typhoid fever with 5514 cases and 674 deaths three epidemics of Paratyphoid ffith522 cases and three deaths seven epidemics of Scarlet fever rift 192 cases and three epidemics of septic sore Throat with 534 cases and four deaths. In addition there has been a Large amount of Bovine tuberculosis and und ulant fever the typhoid fever included two very severe epidemics in Montreal but there were no less than four in Winnipeg and one in Carman. Fifteen cases of typhoid in Winnipeg in 1926 were proven to have come from infection in milk. Nine cases in this City in the previous year came from the same cause and there were two deaths. In 1912, Winnipeg had 92 cases of typhoid due to milk and seven lives were sacrificed. Again in 1916, this City had 23 cases of the same serious disease from infected raw Nulec Carman had 15 people sick with typhoid and one death in 1933 from the same cause. The disease apparently came from i Carrier of typhoid who was milking the cows. Four epidemics of Scarlet fever in Winnipeg have been proven to come from the milk Supply. There were 28 cases in 1925, 39 cases in two separate epidemics in 1922, and 73 cases in a worse epidemic in 1919. Dauphin had 100 cases of septic sore Throat in 1931. And the disease was proven to have come from raw milk. The whole country has been swept by these epidemics. The places that have been afflicted with typhoid fever due to the milk include Saint John Regina City Sher Brooke Arnprior Hanover Chatham Timmins Sturgeon Falls Belleville new Westminster St. Maurice Kingston and others Many of these places having repeated epidemics of typhoid. Scarlet fever due to milk has visited Calgary Edmonton Kitche Ner Winnipeg and certainly other places where investigations were not carry pm out. Bovine tuberculosis is one of the serious dangers from the use of raw milk. It attacks the Bones joints glands and Abdo Minal the lungs. Toronto has had All of its milk pasteurized for More than Twenty years and the experience of the sick children s Hospital in that City with regard to the Protection which pasteurization has provided from Bovine tuberculosis is very valuable and is beyond dispute. Not a single Case of Bovine tuberculosis has occurred among Toronto children. French cult linked by religion and to a lesser degree by jews like germans come of two races. And As unprejudiced geography shows the greater number of. Jews in Germany derive from the Alpine stack from which half the nazis themselves racially the nazi represents what every Schoolboy knows about his country in Germany today. Its original title is of the German people and its n by . Is faithful to Liberal this nazi textbook How elicit by states that All have now decisively nineteenth Century i c v and it describes the Louf tears for aldermen Reich s racial and political for at the City Hall they Are talking mation and present Day problems of a four year term for members of the City Council. Some critical Folk might suggest that the Alder men who favor the idea have a Good opinion of themselves. But it is argued members of the legislature Are elected for Maxi there have been such cases in the Hospital but. They have come mum. Terms of five years and two from the surrounding country where the milk was not Pasteur years is too Short a term for those in charge of the government of consider the evidence of or. Allan Brown physician in chief to the Toronto Hospital for sick children. He says the evidence is incontestable where careful studies have been made that from 15 to 20 per cent of. Bone gland and joint tuberculosis in children is of Bovine origin and that scientific pasteurization absolutely pre vents tuberculosis of this nature and in addition pre vents All milk borne epidemics. The experience in the City of Toronto since the inauguration of pasteurization shows that not a single Case from the City s Borders of abdominal tuberculosis has entered the Hospital which last year gave treatment to Over infection in raw milk is also the prolific cause of infantile diarrhoea. Pasteurization has proven its value in removing this trouble in Toronto and elsewhere. If the desire is to have healthy babies and healthy evidence is overwhelmingly against the use of raw milk no matter what precautions Are taken in handling it. There is Complete proof that there is a great Deal of milk borne disease and also that gives effective Protection against it. That has convinced the medical profession he health authorities and All who Are interested in the general Public welfare. The facts Are Clear and indisputable and they should be no longer ignored. There he been a Good Deal of concern about the Public health in Canada and we have gone far with our feral provincial and municipal health services. Very pro Perly so for excellent results have been achieved. We cannot before logically or intelligently allow of the Poven menace to the health of the people which lies in the use milk. All the facts and the experience everywhere Point distinctly to the action that should be taken. Raw milk is now going into Winnipeg Homes. It e going into any of them. A Large City. This is overlooking the fact that the lower House of the australian parliament is elected for Only three years and that the members of the House of representatives in the United states Congress Are racial prejudice fallacies bred of racial prelude were pilloried in the presi address Given by professor Taylor of the University before the geography at the Cambridge meeting British association for the advancement of science last the address was based 1 professor Taylor s geographic my of migration out led at length in his Book ent race and Migra published recently by the of Toronto press. It inevitable that professor Tay deride the ethnological shown by totalitarian in racial prejudices con up by powerful political dabbling know. In sciences they lot of n in Germany have had imposed on them on Hie n that they Are racially Ordic Breed but half the tial themselves professor Tay is Are not nordic. Jews As germans can have three origins. If the jews came they belong to the race As do half the German e for while linguistic Divi a Europe Are those of aryan racial ure Alpine and Mediterranean Fessor Taylor says three hot wart of the jews in Europe from Poland Are racially leaded alpines. But so Are half the germans the other Naif Only being nordic. Racial origin has been deliberately confused with such cultural blending As religion and language which geographically May be re cent acquisitions. If then science is to replace prejudice and knowl Edge to ignorance racial descent must hot be merged in cultural blends. Probably three quarters of the jews in Europe geography shows have a racial derivation similar to that of Gar mans. Jews in fact have to be granted a position equal to that of germans and italians to mention two totalitarian Peoples who As sume a racial superiority Over jews. For jews too have to be classed racially among the progressive nations of the world built up on the same Alpine nordic and Mediterranean stocks. Cultural acquisitions linguistic or validate nor vitiate racial descent. That they Are misused to do so justifies professor Taylor in claiming that the term a Geo Rapai Cal be applied Only in connection with religion and other cultural blending. To do More leads to mistaking culture for race. To efface this error. Professor Taylor refers to and illustrates this by alluding to French canadians. He . Have in. No French race since frenchmen May belong to one of three distinct races but Only a with special emphasis on the re lation Between territory and population. It is the text officially prescribed for seven million of the Tea million girls in Germany Between the Ages of ten and eighteen. These seven million belong to the Hitler youth organization which has its special text books the other three million get the same sort of learning trom Ordinary schoolbooks All Exten sively revised since 1933 to con form to nazi doctrine. So Here undistorted by the foreign lies of which the nazis Are always complaining is the truth about what they want the germans of the future to think. It is an All elected for Only two years. Two years is Long enough for the members of our. City Council. Revelation changes in Public opinion cer claims made mainly have a better Chance to Are crazy be reflected in Council when the members must secure a. Renewal of their mandates after two years than they would if the term were twice As Long. Many of the aldermen secure re election and serve for Many years on the. Council. But that does not that they would always be. They Are not. There Are a few changes at every election and the Council then More truly represents the citizens. The suggestion at the City Hall is that the. Question of lengthen ing the Alderman tic Terri be submitted to the people at the com ing elections. We have no doubt that this would be the end of the proposal. There is no reason however Why the City should not elect the mayor and All the members of Council at one election every two years instead of electing half the aldermen each year. The Elimina Tion of one election would save there would still be enough continuity in the Council and in any Case there Are few changes t in the Heads of the civic departments who Are an important part of the government of the City.

Our sins he is faithful and forgive us and. To cleanse us from All most astonishing thing j. About it is that it claims to represent fact and nothing but fact. National socialism it asserts at the oif set is not a theory but an exact vision of reality. Since there is no getting round facts every Good nazi youth and girl must think it necessary to believe what this Book tells sary not because Hitler orders them to believe it but because it is absolutely True. This throws some Light on the concept of education in the totalitarian state. It is of course radically opposed to the democratic View. Most educationists in democratic coun tries agree that the object of Edu cation is to teach not so much what to think As How to leaving the child free to form his own general Outlook when he matures. Leven though this Ideal May not always be followed in practice and popular prejudice May often obstruct Freedom of thought in any country still Foi the most part democratic education rejected liberalism and adopted the general Outlook of nazism for Good. Those educated in this Outlook therefore Are not expected to develop thei own. They Are All bound to Thi same one. The Book says 1he Are bound by truth. Is this the Pride of place to race idea the first thing to make one doubt the s claim is its Complete and utter unfairness to All the views it mentions other than the officially sanctioned ones any View of culture As a thing in dependent of race is summarily dismissed As absurd this at once disposes of christianity free masonry and marxism which Are All lumped together As menacing opponents of the race idea. Any View of the individual Vas. Some thing other than a the state machine is contemptuously Dis missed As antiquated liberalism so that the history of Germany until the nazi and vent is regarded As a vast mistake in so far As ii allowed democratic and Liberal ideas a measure of Freedom. Anc woe betide any attempt to Puc such non nazi views into practice even outside Germany the comparatively Liberal ideas of the French about race for instance Are condemned As a menace to Efrench culture on no definite grounds except the curious that an influx of Black colonial has Given certain unspecified Trench cities an african naturally this unfairness to other views gets even worse., Whan it comes to politics and economics. For example no possibility of settling the German colonial ques Tion except by direct return of the colonies to Germany is even Jeroen toned let alone examined and no suggestions made that age of German Export Trade the Book laments could have any connection at All with the Hitler . Politics in action by Tom King Washington . What happened to senator William Gibbs Mcadoo in California though cordially endorsed by president Roosevelt he was badly beaten in the democratic primaries when he sought Reno mutation. The fact is that he was up against a whirl wind such As we witnessed in Al Berta when Premier Aberhart with his social credit scheme swept into Power. Sheridan Dow Ney who so badly Defeated Mcadoo ran on a platform which delighted the electorate. He Man or woman fifty years or older and neither nor an employee a pension thirty dollars a week payable every thursday morn ing. No fell for it not realizing that the proposal did paying the pension ers in Money. In lieu of Money they Are to receive warrants issued by the state and if the scheme work Well these War rants will circulate As Money. One who thus uses a War rant must affix an excise stamp purchased from _. The state and the theory is that the state will sell enough of these Stamps to re deem. The warrants. The Fly in the1" ointment is that under the Federal Constitution no state can make anything but Gold or Silver Legal tender. Thus the the creditor the Butcher and the be compelled to without discussing the. Merits. Of. The that or. Meadoo loses his seat in the Senate not because Friend of Roosevelt but because he opposes or. Downey s Utopia. On the other hand the South Carolina primary was an unmistakable defeat for the president. The democratic voters of that state renominated senator Smith Over or. Strenuous object Tion. Now the Battle shifts to the state of Maryland. Senator Tyd Ings is up for Renom mation at the democratic primaries to be held today. He is a likeable fellow who served with distinction in the world War and would certainly achieve his ambition except for the opposition of the Roosevelt administration. Or. Roosevelt has virtually taken the stump against Tydings in Maryland. On the other hand David Lewis whom or. Roosevelt , has a great Deal of personal strength. He began work in the Coal mines of Maryland at the age of ten and grew up with the idea that Many social and economic changes minis country were badly needed. He is the father of the social Security legislation and is a prime Tavonte with All the labor Union people whether they Hap pen to belong to the c . Or the american federation of labor. The president s support will Aid him not a Little because thousands of people who Are employed by the Federal government and its instrumental ties the City of Washington actually reside and Are Able to vote in the nearby state of Maryland. Government s deliberate reduction of imports which the Book com mends. If a View which claims to be an exact vision of reality is so unfair to other views one doubts at once whether it is very Well reasoned this doubt is borne out nature of the facts which nazism claims to see so clearly. All German superiority Nohe primary fact is the. In j. Proved superiority of Ger Man culture to the other civilizations with which it has come in Contact in the process of territorial expansion. The primer says that German culture is nordic in origin that it is responsible for the Unity of Europe a the Middle Ages As the nordic race is pre disposed to leadership by nature that even today it extends entire Over German the sudeten area of Czechoslovakia and the polish corridor and in scattered settlements Over most of Eastern Europe that it alone is responsible for the civilization of the areas in which it remains Anc that its continued existence pends on Complete racial purity and hence on the exclusion from the population of All non nordic elements especially jews de pends therefore on the nazi party which alone is declared Able to achieve this end. On this fact of German Cul Ture the primer erects the most amazing interpretation of euro Pean history. Every act trial expansion by Germany in the past is called self determination of germans in German culture and every such act by any neighbouring nation is lamented As a breaking away from the Ger Man culture area. Thus for example it is declared that the germans were the first to turn into a culture is now the sudeten District. Of Czecho Slovakia and it is on this fact that the German claim to this Region is made to rest but self determination of the czechs shortly before the reformation is treated merely As an annoying obstacle to a unified German front on the East. Similarly the self determinations of the poles and hungarians later Are regretted As violent de National Izat ions of German such Are the facts which typify Book s whole treatment of its subject what see clearly facts like these not Marhal judgment certainly. A fanatical belief rather in the pre destination of the. Nordic race to leadership in fact just another theory. The has the right of course to bring up Ger Man youth As it wills one can Only the sex ambassador in his excellent epilogue that the in million Are being brought up on this sort of thing and carefully kept from temptation to believe Iha Tjit is not an exact vision of reality " the.

J r Langille Winnipeg bom River John n.s., sept. 13, the British nations Ceylon s disquietude the. Insecurity of so Many Brit ish overseas transport routes at this time is increased by Ceylon having internal Politica troubles. These arise again Over the Constitution framed by the Donoughy More commission ten years ago and put into effect nine years ago. The plea of nationalism to give the Ceylon people Home As became a really ancient people could More easily have been responded to if the sinhalese great could be trusted fairly to treat the tamils mos lems and indians in the minority. A form of government was de Vised the like of which had not been Given effect in any country before. The basis of its terms was that of the principle and procedure local government in England or of the City Council in Winnipeg. Committees of the legislature would handle affairs respectively assigned to them but the government itself would be largely responsible to the Gover nor whose Power to. Validate or invalidate would be supreme. The Donau Gumore report was slightly modified by lord pass More before being translated into a form of government and was a admitted Experiment. One immediate result of ministers find ing themselves unequipped with full authority to do whatever they wished to do was rioting stirred up by the nationalists. That had partly ceased about 1932, and the British parliament refused a re vision of the Constitution in 3934, because the new Constitution had not had a proper trial in Only a Little More than two years. The Constitution has been amended to some but a More or less sweep of it is being demanded by a sinhalese Dele gation visiting London. As the sinhalese hold 50 per cent of the seats legislature and All the seven ministers being a inhaler want More Power. What they want is what the minority composed of the tamils moslem indians and europeans do not want them to get. The sinhalese want the governor s Powers to re Strain them reduced a Freedom action the minorities stoutly oppose. T. The committee form of govern ment has not opinion on the system is said to. Be at one Ceylon. The Experiment has been disastrous. It has led to irresponsibility and worse. The Only ground on which it was favored says the Colombo correspondent of the London times was the Hope that it would give Niemur Bers of a Chance to become ministers. This proved a fallacy for after the last general election the sinhalese majority so packed the mittens that All the ministers elected were sinhalese. ing now is that the Board of ministers who Are Heads of commit tees should be. Formed As a cab inet usually is formed with a chief minister to submit the min sters of his Choice. But As this too will give Complete dominance to the majority Community the plan will need modifications. Be fore insuring Security to the minority communities. The sinhalese do not see this and argue that As they Are in the majority they should enjoy the democratic right of domination. They have All along claimed this. Correspondent says that the Donough More Constitution might have worked with some measure of Success but for the initial Blunder of giving the fran Chise to voters of whom at least 90.per cent do not understand the meaning of the vote. Unless he says this serious defect is remedied the base corrupt traditions already begun will have become too hardened to be destroyed. The most responsible Section of the Public in Ceylon has asked that a Royal commission should be sent to Ceylon to investigate the work ing of the Constitution in the Hope of amending it. This again May seem unfortunate to the outsider. India is politically in a state of unrest and has not shown any general intention to make its new Constitution for Ceylon at the toe of India to revert to political Seething reopens an Empire sore that was hoped to have healed. A the unqualified condemnation of. The Donough More report and Constitution that comes from Ceylon is not accepted by or. T. Drum mind shiels who was a member of the commission and was a parliamentary under Secretary for the colonies in a labor government. He is reported to have said it was Gratifying to know that the work of social amelioration had markedly progressed., since the Constitution came into operation. In adopting the committee system the commissioners hoped that Cey Lon would give a Lead to the Mother of parliaments. He saw no reason Why the various communities of Ceylon should not Unity and Mutual democratic the Ceylon National Congress which Speaks for the sinhalese fastens ithe blame for the troubles on the British colonial office. This is new line of attack and was advanced by or. D. S. Senanayake Ceylon s minister for agriculture who is a member of the delegation in London appealing for a revision of the Constitution. Ylon minister looks Back this on the Dis Satis Britain Donough More commission with gratitude but says there is action in Ceylon because applies democracy to Cey Lon in a most undemocratic Way. He proceeded after or. Shiels had spoken to explain Why this is so and is reported As was no More undemocratic institution than the colonial it was presided Over by a minister the colonies had no voice in Choos ing and in no Way responsible to them. He should observe that they had the greatest Confidence in the present Secre tary of state or. And looked to his tenure with great expectation. But the Holder of the office was responsible to the Brit ish people and was a member of the Cabinet with Many preoccupations. In his own department tie was discretion and was an absolute autocrat the people of Ceylon Felt that while they were an absolute autocrat with the assistance of efficient bureaucrats they would not fully Benefit by the Liberal spirit and Good intentions of the British people.
