BIRMINGHAM, England, Aug. 23< (Reuters)—Birmingham cricket
fans and parents protested indignantly last night against Vampire jet
plane's which screeched and zoomed over this Midlands industrial

The Warwickshire Cricket Club planned an official protest about
the jets capers, which it blamed for the loss of Its third batsman's

A flight of Vampires roared 50 feet above the pitch as the batsman,
Alan-Townsend, stepped out, to strike the ball in a match with Hamp-

burglars crack the -vault and make off with the cohtehts. From now

Logic of the officials is irrefutable; "Why should we spend a

is much less than that," they say. "We'd be losing money both ways."

HANDLING THIRD
OF FARM PRODUCE
SlADISON, Wis., Aug. 38 (CP)-
Cahadian cooperatives handle about
B3 1*8 per cent of tha main farm
products entering commercial channels of trade, J. E. O'Meara of
Ottawa said tonight
Mr. O'Meara, an economist In the
marketing service -branch of the
Federal Agriculture Department,
said the cooperatives across the
country handle a wide variety bt
products.
"By main commodities," ho said,
"cooperatives handle 68 per cent
of the wool, 68 per cent of grains
and seeds, 33 per cent of dairy
products, 37 per cent Of fruits and
■vegetables, 18 per cent of livestock,
18 per cent of poultry products and
•35 per cent ot maple products." . .
-"Ho mads the statements In an
I .address prepared- tor delivery at the
31st annual session of.the American
Institute ot Cooperation.
In tho crop year ended July 81,
1948, 'the value of farm products
marketed by cooperatives in Canada
was mora man $616,000,000.
,- "This amount is an increase of
6.5 per sent over tha previous year,"
laid Mr. O'Meara, "but it is encouraging to not* that the increase in
farmers' net cash lncomo from the
lame products during the same period was 5,5 per cent which indicates
that cooperatives in Canada have
Increased their proportion of the
handlings.
"Reported sales valuo ot merchandise and supplies handled during 1947-48 was* $157,800,000. While
this amount is a very small proportion ot the total retail and wholesale trade It is growing each year.
"Purchasing cooperatives are being organized at a greater rate than
marketing cooperatives and the business of the latter now Is only four
times as great as the purchasing
cooperatives whereas in' 1940 It was
10 times greater."
Membership in Canadian cooperatives now Is over the 1,000,000
mark. Tbe members own attd control 3249 cooperatives of all types.

SPLIT IN FINLAND
TRADE UNION
FEDERATION RISES
By TEDDY ROSENTHAL
HELSINKII, Finland, Aug. 23
(AP)—A serious split lh Finland's
powerful Central Trade Union
Federation appeared Imminent tonight when five Communist Unions
refused to obey a Federation ultimatum to end their wildcat strikes.
While the intra-unlon struggle
rsged, observers feared the Communists would try to extend their
strike offensive to tho metal industry. This would endanger Finland's war reparations to Russia.
When the wave of Red-inspired
walkouts hit, the Federation ordered striking unions to end them by
today or suffer expulsion from the
Federation. As the deadline passed,
the unions kept silent and Communist leaders said the strikes
would 'Continue,
That means the five offending
unions . probably will be ousted
from Federation membership when
action Is taken by the big labor
organisation, possibly tomorrow.
Social Democratic workers are expected, to form new union-).     ,  ,

Seattle travel agencies announced
today the opening of; an office in
Vancouver, B.C., for the sale of
Uckets for travel In Hie United
States.
They explained in a three-column
newspaper advertisement that the
arrangement sidesteps the 15-percent U.S. tax on air, rail and ship
tickets.        ;,,'   .'    -,"..*:'        -;' ' 7
The advertisement cited Canada's
repeal ot the wartime 15-par-cent
travel tax and said:
"Under our American law, however, U.S, citizens may legally purchase transportation tax-free in
Canada, even though the trans
portation Is used wholly within the
United States.
"This situation has brought about
a fantastic increase .in sales of
American, travel tickets in Canada
. . . and a corresponding loss of
sales here. Thousands of Seattleites
are buying thejlr tickets in British
Columbia because the -Inequity of
our law makes it to their advantage
to do so. The situation can be
remedied only by an act of Congress
"We have individually and collectively petitioned our. elected
representatives in Congress to take
such action. Results—none."

WOULD BROADEN
DIVORCE LAWS
VANCOUVER, Aug. 23 (CP) -
The Canadian Federation of University Women today passed a
resolution urging a - widening of
divorce laws to admit 'desertion,
cruelty and insanity as grounds.
The triennial conference rejected
an additional clause asking restrictions on application for divorce
during the first three years of
marriage and on the re-marriage of
divorced persons.
Delegates from Quebeo said the
resolution would weaken divorce
laws to the point where they became as elastic as those in the
United States.
The meeting-will also'petition
provincial education ministers to
give women executive positions,
inspector-ships and normal school
prlnclpalships.
Miss Grace Morgan of North Bay,
Ont, education convener, said one
reason why 11,000 teachers are
need in Canada Is that the' young
teacher reaches her peak in the
profession at 28 and "there she sits
till she's 62.'"
"Male teachers say women are not
fit to advance further . . . Even
though 85 per cent of the elementary and 45 per cent ot the secondary
teachers are women."
Another conference resolution
asked more adequate representation
of the sex In the Senate. At present

Victoria Greets
Seattle-Alaska
Rail Link Request
VICTORIA, B.C., Aufl. 23 (CP)
 News that the  united States
Foreign Affairs Committee-again
Is urging President Truman to
seek a railroad 'connection, bs
tween Seattle and Alaska-was
welcomed at the Legislative
Buildings today, .
It was looked upon as further
evidence that the Pacific Great
Eastern Railway may eventually
become part of a vital rail link
between the United States and
her Northern territory. It brought
forth again- the hope that B.C.
might receive additional financial
aid either from tha United
States or from the Dominion and
make possible extensions that this
province might otherwise be unable to afford.
Premier. Johnson has already
Indicated he thinks the extension
from Prince George to the Peace
River is justified On economic
grounds and would lead to tremendous development of Central and
Northern B.C.
At the same time it is admitted
that if the province has to finance
almost the entire. Venture,' it remains something of a gamble. Large
Sums are-Involved and if the railroad continued to show losses it
would prove a heavy drain on this
province's resources.
The Senate Committee's resolution, paralleling a similar resolution
by the House Committee, was
suggested as a means of bolstering
Alaskan defence.
It asked President Truman to
determine Canada's attitude on

Soon on Losing
Hospital Plan
VICTORIA, B.C., Aug. 28 (CP) -
Health Minister George S. Pearson,
acknowledging this afternoon that
premiums were falling to pay the
cast of British Columbia's Hospital
Insurance scheme, said the Government''shortly would have to make
up Its mind whether to increase the
rates or absorb the deficits.
Mr. Pearson, under whose jurisdiction the Hospital Insurance
scheme comes, said that next premium payment would be due by
Oct 1. He Indicated that the Government's policy toward the deficit
would have to be decided well in
advance dt that time.
The Hospital Insurance scheme
came into operation last Jan. 1.
The cost of hospitalzation, the
Minister said, had increased during
the. year because of higher wages
and other factors.
Apparently anticipating some possible difficulties in the introduction
ot the scheme, the Government had
set up a $2,000,000 stabilization fund.
It is not known whether the deficits
currently facing the service will
exceed this, reserve or not
There has been some speculation
that the Government which possibly may collect more sales tax
revenue than it; estimated, might,
as an alternative tolnrceaslng the
Hospital Insurance rates, dip into ,
such Increased revenue to take care
of the deficits.
Mr. Pearson did not estimate the
extent to which the Hospital Insurance service was falling behind in;i
its operations.::,       '^M.^y'SM^MM
One report held the-cost of the
Service this year would total f2,-:
500,000 more than the Income of the
sorvice through premium collections. -
- .When the bill came up In the;
Legislature, Hon, Mr. Pearson told
the House it was estimated that
$12,000,000 would be sufficient to
meet the cost the first year.

Associated Press News Analyst
The defiance of Moscow by Yugoslavia, Finland and the moderate Communists of Russian-occupied Germany gives one to pause
for consideration of the significance..      ... ;     '
We shall be rash, I think, to jump
to conclusions in trying to figure the
potentialities of this "revolt" against
Moscow, or how far Russia may be
prepared to go in maintaining her
prestige, For example, take Russia's
threatening note to a politically rebellious and defiant Yugoslavia: ,
Moscow lashed out at Marshal
Tito with the warning that Russia
is prepared to take "effective measures" (measures unspecified) to
protect the rights of Russian citizens In Yugoslavia.' A portion of the
British press immediately said this
sounded like the worst threat of
war since Hitler's blasts in 1939.
However, Informed British diplomatic officials, who are watching
the situation, closely, said the dispute wasn't likely to lead to war.
They figured Moscow wantc" Yugoslavia to think she was threatened
with attack, whereas Russia was
bluffing.
NO IDLE THREAT
Well, this column doesn't like the
term "bluffing" as applied either to
Russia or Yugoslavia. I think both
are mighty determined,
As I see it there's nothing to justify the belief either that Russia intends to make war (which would
FACES WAR
GRIMES CHARGES
HAMBURG, Germany, Aug. 23
(CP)—After a four-year wait, Field
Marshal Erich von Mansteln faced
a British military court today on 1?
war crimes charges.      ■ y  .
The court rejected his plea that
he receive the "soldier's right" of
trial by Court Martial instead of by
a war crimes tribunal.
The charges against the hawk-
nosed, 81-year-old German officer
arise from his alleged activities in
various high commands in Poland
and Russia during the Second
World War.
Mansteln, 938th and last German
to come before a British war crimes
court, is charged with killing Russian prisoners and Poles, murdering soldiers and civilians by starvation and disease, systematically exterminating Jews and-Gypsies, and
devastating entire regions during
"scorched earth" retreats.
The early Egyptians lived mostly
out of doors and their dwellings
were of wood.or crude brick.
mean world war) st this juncture
or that valiant but comparatively
Small Yugoslavia Is prepared to undertake the role ot giant-killer.
The real Importance of the current developments lies in the fact
that they represent open defiance
In Russia's own sphere of influence.
They represent cracks in the Communist structure.
SIGNIFISANT STAND
Finland's bold and energetic stand
against Communist-inspired strikes,
coming on top of Yugoslavia's refusal to knuckle under, is a tough
and dangerous blow td Soviet imperial ambitions in Europe. Both
these countries are essential to the
Red structure, not only politically
but militarily, for they are strategically located,
Of course Russia could take Finland over by force, but such a move
certainly would result In another
world war, Finland must be ab
sorbed by indirection,
What must be equally staggering
for Moscow Is the astonishing move
in the Soviet, zone of Germany by
German Communists who hate
Russia, These Germans have formed
a hew party which, the same as that
ot Marshal Tito, represents nationalistic Communism that refuses to
recognize the sovereignty of Moscow..
WUl this revolt against Moscow's
dictation spread in Eastern Europs?
That is possible and, I believe, even
probable in due course.

Romanian Red Leader Accuses
Tifo of Plotting Balkan War
LONDON, Aug. M (AF)-Charges
of plotting a Balkan war were hurled at Premier Marshal Tito of Yugoslavia last night as the Russian-
led campaign against him took a
new turn.
While diplomatic and other sources still sought to fathom the implications of Russia's threat to take
"effective measures" against the
Tito regime, a Romanian Communist leader made the new accusation.   '-'
The Romanian was Vice-Premier
Gheorghe Gheorghlu-Dej. who said
Tito was "plotting to set ablaze the
Balkan powder keg." He spoke at a
rally attended by some 8000 "sleet"
Romanian Reds.
Marshal. Klementl  VOroshllov,
a member of Russia's Politburo,
.  spoke at the same rally and assailed Tito as. a "traitor who has
become the most bitter enemy of
the 8ovlet Union and the People's
' Democracies." „ «
Following the lead of recent Soviet notes blasting the Yugoslav
Government, Voroshllov sought 'to
link Tito with Fascism. Similarly,
he accused him of negotiating with
the West, fbehtod the backs Of the
Soviet Union and the People's
Democracies."   ,
BRANDED "FA8CI8TB1
PRAGUE, Aug. ,23 (AP) — A
Czech Communist newspaper, Rude
Pravo, today branded Marshal Tito's
Government "Fascist" and warned
it was the policy of Russia to "exterminate Fascism wherever it may
appear—now as during the war."
The newspaper endorsed as a
"historic document" Moscow's latest note to Tito which accused him
of mistreating Soviet citizens in
Yugoslavia.   .'-..'•'.'

Further reports placed it definitely at a magnitude of eight oh

one. of the largest felt anywhere in

On the basis of yesterday's'reports
that the magnitude was about IVt,
seismologists here said it was at

for some discomfort and under certain conditions 'may lead to cross-
eye during tbe second or third year
ol life. The farslghted'child may
not have any trouble until he starts
school; then, after reading or writing, symptoms of eyestrain develop,
During illness, the symptoms also
may be more pronounced.
IMAGES BLURRED     '
Nearsightedness Is due to the fact
that the eyeball is too long. In near:
sighted children, Images are always
blurred, and the condition cannot be
corrected by the focusing structures
of the eye.. Nearsightedness is a
common disorder. There is evidence
tbat lt may run In families, There
are some who think that perhaps
excessive use of tbe eyes in childhood may play a part in producing
this disorder. Lack of exercise and
general poor health are also thought
to be contributing Causes. Ot course,
the treatment consists ln fitting the
child with proper glasses and see
ing to it that he gets enough outdoor exercise and sunshine, and
that he does not use the eyes for
too much close work.
Astigmatism is another common
type of eye disturbance. In this
condition, the front part of the eyeball is not properly shaped, which
causes blurring Of the vision, Astigmatism also can be corrected with
proper glasses so that Images are
clearly seen. If not corrected, It will
lead to eyestrain.
It is evident that when these eye
defects are discovered and early
and proper treatment Is carried out,
they, may be kept Irom progressing.
If they are neglected, it is likely
that the condition will become con
stantly worse, It Is important for
every child to have an examination
of the eyes, particularly at the time
he enters school. Even a child as
young as one and one-hslf years of
age may wear glasses it he needs
them.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
O.K.: What causes yellow-looking spots to start appearing around
the eyes?
Answer: This condition msy be
due to xanthoma palpebrarum,
of rounded collections of small yel
Xanthoma palpebrarum consists

This condition is essentially a disease of middle or later life, and Is
a degenerative condition which affects a muscle around the eye. Wie

Love'Problems
By JANE ATKINSON
Natural for Boy To Be Jealous of
Girl-Friend's Other Boy-Friend
Dear Miss Atkinson:
I am fifteen years old and very
much in love, with a girl, and I
think she feels the same about me,
Well, Miss Atkinson,! am, to put
it mildly, stuck good, We have been
going steody for three years now
and air of a sudden out ol a clear
blue sky comes this other guy. I am
by nature what I guess you'd call
just peaceful, and I can show my
jealousy but not go In and fight for
what I want. But this guy gets me
so mad at times, I-am tempted to
give him poke in the nose, but I just
go off and soak my head.
What I want to know IS, should
I tell her how I feel about her, and
also give out with the law? I would
also like to know how to tell hor because once Lean get a start, I can
go throuith anything.
it. n.
Ih'iii- Ii. D.: ,
It's, porfudly natural ior you to be
jealous when anothui guy comcii in
and takes your girl, but I think
you'll make out better in the end If
you pretend you're not jealous. You
won't do yourself a bit of good by
trying to lay the law down to tho
girl. She'll only feel flattered to
have two boys fighting about her,
Your best plan is to take some
other girl out a few times yourself,
and see how she likes that. If she
likes you, she'll let you know pretty
quick she doesn't want any.other
girl to have you. And if she doesn't
seem to care What you do, then you
had better find yourself another girl
anyhow.
WIFE'S LOVE PUT TO TEST
Dear Miss Atkinson:
My husband is 40 years old, and
I have the trouble of his going out
with women. Also, I have two
daughters and he has even gone so
far as to make passes at their girl
friends. My girls feel terrible about
this, for now-most of their husbands
thi for now most of their Mends
are forbidden to come to my home
on account of my husband.
He comes in all hours '1 the night
drunk and with women's pictures
ar.t'. addresses, and when I ask him
about the things that he does, he
tells me to keep my nose out of his
affairs.
Even though he does these things
he tells me he loves me, and I always ahve food, clothes and money.
He says that the children and I have
everything v>- waht My friendB tell
me he'll change and that ps long as
he's keeping me, I shouldn't care
what he does. But because of my
children, the way he behaves has
ma wreck. I don't know whether
t» le.ivn Win or rt iy with him, for
1 .lu love him.
.  -B, II.
Dcar'B: H.I -* ._    '<■'_-
I can see that you really don't
want to break up your home, but on
the other hand, I don't think you
should have to put up with what is
going on, especially in regard to
your husband's behavior with your
daughter's friehds.      :
I am quite sure, however, that no-,
thing you can say will have any influence with him at all and for that
reason, I think you should go to
someone you can trust and talk the
jvhole problem over, My suggestion
would be that you make nn appointment with' the family counselling
service that is-In your city. It you
will let me know where I can send
you a letter, I will be glad to give
you the name and address of this organization whose business It is to
help people like yourself solve difficult marital problems.
Beauty Hints
By IDA IEAN KAIN
Sagging Bust Mostly Due To Lack.
Of Tone in Supporting Muscles
Can sagging of the bust be corrected when the fault is not due to
posture or weight?
In many instances, yes. But first
lt is important to understand about
the glands, ligaments and muscles,
While the breasts are not composed
of muscle, they are held in place
by muscles and ligaments. So lt follows that proper tone in the sup
porting tissues is essential to normal position.
The breasts are delicate organs
located in front of the pectoral muscles. Proper position depends on the
tone of the ligaments reaching up
to the collarbone, and on the tone
of the pectoral muscles which lie
just under the skin and cover the
chest. These muscles are attached to
the inner part of the collarbone,
follow down the whole' length ot
the sternum and fan out.across each
side of the chest, and the handles
of the fans Insert into grooves in
upper arms.
DUE TO LIGAMENTS
The sagging breast is almost always due to decrease in tone of the
ligaments and to a lack of tone in
the supporting pectoral muscles, resulting from strain of weight on the
supporting tissues, as well as from
general loss in body tone. Excessive
weight cannot be overlooked since
it adds'to the sag. This not only,
points up the importance of normal
weight always, but also the importance of wearing a well-fitted, uplift
brassiere during special periods
such as pregnancy ond the nursing
period—and the equal Importance
of follow-up exercises to restore
tone, . i    . :■',-:,,; *
If the sagging has been allowed to
continue for years, no one can
promise that the ligaments and muscles can be restored to normal tone.
But exercise is a real help, for It
increases the tone in the particular
ligaments and muscles and also improves general body tone, which is
all-important. The key to effective
exercise is that the pectoral muscles insert in upper arms.'
GOOD RESISTANCE
A: good resistance exercise is to
pull up to tip-toes on a stretching
bar, Or cup one fist In tbe other
palm in front of chest—resist with
one arm and push with the other.
The back stroke as copied after
swimming is excellent, A natural
for young mothers is to push their
child in a swing. One young

Probe Ways of
Getting Money
For Universities
OTTAWA, Ag. 23 (CP)-A member of the, Royal Commission on
Arts and Science today joined with
witnesses to consider ways and
means of getting a pot of gold out
Of the Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation.
R. E. G, Davis, President of the
Community Planning Association of
,Canada, told the Commission that
the Corporation still had $4,000,000
left over from a $9,000,000 fund set
aside in 1046 tor community plan
ning research ..nd training.
Some of that money should have
been used to train community planners in universities, Mr. Davis maintained. Only 20 per cent of that
money bad been spent In three
years. He didn't know why, perhaps
it was the "timidity" of universities
in failing to ask tor funds,
Dr. Norman Mackenzie, President
of the University of British Columbia and member of the Commission,
said he didn't know there was a
source of revenue the universities
had not touched. He thought they
had tried every moans of; getting
sufficient funds.
Fined for Keeping
Fawn As Pet
VANCOUVER, Aug. 28 (CP) —
Keeping a fawn as a pet, even with
the permission of a -police officer,
is a dear business.
Dr. G. Grqpp found that out in
police court when he was fined $25
for possession of an "orphan" eight-
month- old fawn during the closed
season. Dr. Gropp pleaded not guilty
and said- he had brought the fawn
here on instructions from police at
Powell River, B.C.     ■-,.: . J
He said the baby deer wss an orphan, and in need of care.
Magistrate Oscar Orr said he regretted ho must impose the minimum fine. He said he did not know
whether Dr. Gropp could properly
be given such permission.
Blame Selfish Men
For Underfed Wives
LONDON (Reuters)—Grossly selfish husbands sre blamed- for the
fact that mothers in 37 out of 100
British working-class families are
believed to be suffering from debility and chronic ailments due to poor
feeding.
This conclusion was reached by
a group of social work students Investigating the conditions of wives
and mothers in an industrial area,
They were helped by experts.
It. was found that these mothers
had given their meat, bacon and
egg ration to their husbands.
The reports said that the mother
of a family usually expended far
more energy than the father. She
should be encouraged to pay close
attention to her' own diet and health
and her huaband should see she had
her proper share of the family
rations.
The students Say the need Is great
for urgent efforts to educate both
husbands and wives ln these matters through Women's Institutes and
townswomen's guilds. '■

If Child VVants To Read Difficult
Bocsks dn No Account Discourage Him
CHILDREN read to from tho
time they are. barely two years old
will, gradually, como to listen to
harder and harder books as 'they
have had moro and more practice
at listening, Indeed, some children
will, at,a very, early age listen to
one read from heavy adult material,
so great may their interest be lh listening to the sounds, A mother
writes of her boy almost seven:,
LET HIM READ t,       .*
"Do you advise letting hint' go
ahead with his .reading? From the
library I have been getting books
tor him from. the. second and third
grade shelves because 'the first
grade books are. so. repetitious, How-
aver,'! have been advised by a teacher friend, not to let him have the
mora advanced books. He picks up
Snd reads as well as he is able the
Pooh books by A.. A. Milne and
others which we have read to him."
My personal reply was virtually
as follows: By all means let him
read as difficult books, as he likes.
Occasionally, read some pt them to
him, and you ahd he taking turns at
reading to each other. (My' list ot
books from which to read to the
baby and young child, and another
list ot books for the child from six
to twelve to read may be had ln a

TEMPORARY PROBLEMS
A temporary problem may arise
With a child who has been read to,
beyond the second or third grade
level when this child begins learning to read' at school The sentences
and stories in his reading text book
may seam too babyish to him ahd
he may find what he is supposed to
read boring to him. One of our children was like that. We kept reading
to him from some of the harder
books but also selected some easier
books from the library that were
not infantile, but had many pictures
with a small amount ot reading connected with each. While reading
some of his old favorites with easy
Vocabulary and short sentences we
would sometimes stop suddenly (on
purpose), pretending to be busy.
Then the' youngster, impatient to
finish the story, inclined to "dig lt

„      How To Blend Iced Drinks at Home
We had been experimenting most
of the morning In the test-kitchen
with cold drinks for holidays. Over
nightt the Chef had chilled a variety of canned juices, There was
grapefruit juice, blended orange
and grapefruit, tangerine grape and
pineapple juice, apple Juice and a
variety of fruit nectars Including
apricot and raspberry..
, "The basto principle ol making
all these drinks is the same," said
the Chef. Combine any fruit juice,
or combination of fruit juices with
fresh fruit or frozen fresh fruit not
defrosted. Then put Into, the glass
container ot an electric blender. It
the fruit juice is not sufficiently
tart, add a little lemon or lime juice.
And if too sour, add a little honey,
The result Is as you see,"
"This Is a real contribution to
pleasant fare, Chef. But many of our
readers do not own these special
blenders,"
"In that case Madame, they will
have to use a little mora time and
handpower. The fruit can be rubbed
through a sieve, or put through a
food mill, into a deep bowl that Is
quite small at the bottom. Then add
the juice, and' beat with a hand
beater until *rothy."
"Or they, could be mixed In an
electric cake mixer, Chef. Or shaken with a little crushed Ice in a
cooktall shaker."
"Qui Madame. However, when the
electric blender is used for mixing
these goblets, the drink, becomes
very fluffy, and tha servings are
larger and more Impressive."

Building Policies
-OTTAWA, Aug. 23 (CP) — The
Community Planning Association of
Canada said today there is widespread conflict in the building policies of various Federal Government
agencies and between these agencies and Provincial and Municipal
Governments.
It recommended to the Royal
Commission oh Arts and Science
Development the establishment of a
Federal Government clearing-house
to consolidate all national building
policies and to co-ordinate these
policies with those of the Provincial and Municipal Governments.
To develop and expand community planning, the Association also
made these recommendations: .
1. Construction, of a greater number of community halls through
Federal Government subsidy.;,,.
2. Better planning of national
housing and other building projects
through a policy clearing-house.
3. Central Mortgage and Housing

Arteritis Research
Rewarded By Discovery .
This Fall, the Bluebird of Happiiiess
-.symbol will remind citizens that the
Associated Canadian Travellers of Nelson are again-renewing their efforts on
behalf of the .Canadian Arthritis and
Rheumatism Society. The* Travellers,
one of Whose projects is the raising of
'funds for relief of arthritis, this year
will be spurred ori by the discovery of
a new "miracle" drug effective in the
, treatment of the crippling diseases.
Eventual relief for the millions of
sufferers from arthritis and rheumatic*
fever is promised by the discovery that
the seeds of an: African plant called
Strophantus Sarmentosus contain a
substance from which the adrenal
gland hormone, cortisone, may be made
in quantity; When this production has
been brought about, medical science
will have chalked up a victory over
pain fully as momentous iri its field as
the discovery of Insulin.
The story of this discovery is
marked by the accidental quality
which made the recognition of penicillin so dramatic. It was as long ago as
.1915 that research scientists in the
Rockefeller Institute, using misnamed
seeds from* a tropical plant, found the
substance from whicji it is now known)
cortisone,can be made. As the.significance of the* discovery was not seen, it-
■ was years before the substance was
rediscovered, this time in the sarmentosus seeds, Swiss scientists; recently*
corroborated the, discovery, incidentally proving the identity of the seeds
beyond doubt.     *
In the meantime, cortisone had been
Isolated from ox-bile, but ln very minute quantities. The, hormone was
found to be of sensational value 111
controlling arthritis, by a.Mayo Clinic
doctor. Then it was noted that the sai>
mentosus extract had a chemical structure so similar to cortisone, that the'
latter's manufacture could be greatly
simplified. As the plant is common in
certain parts of Africa, it is felt that
no natural reason exists why cortisone
should not bp produced in any needed
quantity. Growing sarmentosus seeds
may create a whole new element of
tropical agriculture, not only In Africa,
but in 'South America and elsewhere.
It may be five years, however, before
the sarmentosus seeds will be available
in quantities approaching demand.
While research was proceeding
along these-Jines, parallel effort discovered .that another substance, briefly
named ACTH, obtainable from the pituitary glands of pigs, served to stimulate the human adrenal glands to higher production of, cortisone. The justly
famed Connaught Laboratories Of the
University of Toronto have announced
that they are making ACTH. This is of
great value to sufferers from rheumatoid arthritis. -It is not for laymen to
^venture to discuss the relative values
of these two forms of attack pn arthrl-
, tis. But the public is more than ready
to applaud the progress, which they
Imply to the fight against this painful
and orippling malady.
There is much at jvhich to marvel
In |he Way such discoveries are ''made;','
Active minds clOsely'observing experimental projects; keen. intelligence relating distant factors to a common purpose; an ultimate sympathy motivating
tireless effort for the relief bf pain—all
are ah impressive and heartening contrast to the vice and brutality which
sometimes seem a major part'of life.
From the earnest and sacrificial, effort
qf such men as these, who are now far
on the way to conquer-ipg.a grim enemy
Of Jiuman happiness, mankind lifts itself above the level of animal passions
and instincts. It is well never to forget
that behind the frenzied aspeqt of civilization there' are these lasting and ennobling elements gradually widening
the area of light. :"-.'.'■

Deals With' Communism
And Christianity
Te, the Hdltor:
Sir—Mr. Foster ta his Utter of Aug. tt
states that Christ's first disciples had all things
In common. Mr. Foster seems to think this
text shows Communism to be true Christianity..
;,DoeS Itt . J .
It most certainly does not In tho first
place, this text does not Show, nor did the
early Christians practice, Communism asstht
.basis of economic, political and social govern-S
ment. And in the second place, real Commur..,
nlsm Is not practiced in Russia today, as many
of our people seem to think.
ft; ; To quota Dr. Qarbett, Archbishop of York,
;%t;a servlcoin St. Peter's Eaton Square, No   11 .
last: He (Dr. Qarbett) gave as an example of;
Communism in its simplest form that toundin:'
the Acts pf the Apostles. The early converts in
Jerusalem followed a doctrine akin to it "They
tad all things common?"—432. (The Times,
11, 11, 48.) Tho text quoted by Dr. Oarbett is
not the only or the" first place where we find
mention ot those first Christians having "all
things common." The first mention of having
"all things common" is ln Acts, 2, 44.
Most of those Christians were Jews, who
lived ln various nations scattered all over (Acta
2:5-11). But in their great fervor over having
been converted they remained longer than they
had planned, before leaving their far-away
homes. Consequently, ot necessity, they formed
a sort ot community for tha.time being only.
These disciples continued only temporarily as
a group or community together. "And all that
believed were together and; had all things
common (Acts 2:44)."
The Moffatt translation In modem English makes it plain "The believers all kept together," etc. They owned property, else how

Lach to Return
To Hockey Wars
By W. R, WHSATLEy"
Canadian Prsss Staff Writer.
MONTREAL, Aug, 29 (CP) -
Elmer Lach, who amassed an un-
envied assortment of plain and
fancy fractures during a. nine-year
National Hockey League career,
has revoked his retirement declaration and will return to the ice wars.
General Manager Frank Seiko of
Montreal Canadiens said today
Lach will report to Canadiens'
training camp at St. Hyaclnthe,
Que., Sept 15.
The decision waa left entirely to
Lach, who twice suffered a fractured jaw last season, Despondent
over his series of misfortunes and
missing the'Stanley Cup playoffs,
Lach announced his retirement
after tho close of the season,;
Complete recovery and a flaming
competitive spirit have caused Lach
to change his mind.
Th* return of th* starry, 31-
year-old centre player will bolster
th* chances ot the team that at
tha moment is pretty much intact
from last season.
Although Canadiens, rich ln capable defencemen, would not be
averse to a deal that would bring
more forward-line strength, there
Is no official.inkling of any.swaps,
purchases or sales.
What might happen by the time
the N.H.L. season opens In mid-
October Is something else. There
have been all sorts of off-season
rumors, some of them smoking up
trades that would parallel the
Detroit-Boston swapping orgy of
last week.
LAPRADE TO AGAIN
PLAY FOR RANGERS
NEW YORK, Aug. 23 (CP) - .
Edgar Laprade, crack centre tor
New YOrk Rangers of the National
Hockey League, haa agreed to terms
and Will report to the Hangers'
Lake Placid training camp next
month, Manager Frank Boucher announced today,
Laprade had Indicated at the
close of last season that he might
retire from professional ranks.
Boucher, however, visited him at
his Port Arthur, Ont, home recently
and apapfently talked him into
signing. Laprade, born ln Mine
Centre, Ont., turned down pro
offers for many years while he
played for-Port Arthur Bear Cats.
Rated one of the best stick-
handlers in the N,H,L., Laprade had
his best goal scoring year last
season with 18, to which he added
12 assists tor a point total ot 30.
The 29-year-old pivot man won
the Calder Memorial Trophy as the
league's outstanding rookie In* 1945-
46, the year he broke Into pro ranks
with the Rangers,
After last season Laprade unloosed a verbal barrage at the type
of hockey played in the N.H.L. He
was quoted as saying that Port
Arthur that big-league hockey Is
"terrible" and that "the small ■
fellow with some ability is smashed
by the .guy with muscle." ,
He added that Rangers finished
last "because they lack experience
ln a game which puts brawn belore
brains,"      \

Hope lo Reassess
(ily Property
The possibility ot reassessing City
property this-year is being studied
by the Financo Committee df the
City-Council. '. '■
: Tho Committee was Instructed to
go into the matter Monday night
after Mayor T. H. Waters reminded
the 'Council that if reassessment
was tp be carried out as suggested
earlier tilts year, it would have to
be undertaken soon. Otherwise, he
said, next, year's Council would
have to strike a tax rate "with the
situation the same as today,", when
assessments were "very much out
of line."
Alderman Alex Sutherland pointed out that an expert was reassessing property'in Trail. It was time it
Was done in Nelson for there Were
many inequalities. He had heard
many complaints about'recent increases in land values.
Aid. N. C. Stibbs did not think
the work should be done now, when
property values were inflated, for
he felt this would Influence an
assessor. However, lt it waa to be
done, than th* City should make
provisions for the "retired pioneer;
peg his tax rate so he Isn't taxed
Into a home or institution.
Aid, Sutherland said some reassessments had already been made
and the job should be completed,
Ah assessor Would act "independently of us." Prices were going upi
not down.
City Clerk W. A. Gordon said irt
reassessing some land values, On
attempt at equalization had been
made.   -

U.S. Economics
By The Canadian Press  "
Even as business news comes from
the United States in a brighter hue
than some weeks ago there is word
of 'caution on the weight, or otherwise, of the psychological factor ln
bringing on economic slumps.
This Js contained iii. tbe July
August News Letter of the Canadian
Chamber of Commerce-which- notes'
that while there seems no accurate
way of assessing the strength of tho
psychological factor,, t h e f actor,
nonetheless esfl restrict necessary
economic expansion.        1  .-
In short the News Letter cautions against panicky thinking on
the part of the publio and.stresses
for businessmen that they "particularly"'-have a duty to ba sura
their publio statements-do, not Inspire, panle.- -'- *"'- '■}:  ';-■ "■-.,': .
"This is not to suggest that they
should present a falsely optimistic
picture, but only that they  must
take: care not1 to paint an unduly
pessimistic ohe," says the News Letter.  '■-'■■.;■■"•       ' '•' ' '*■?':>
The remarks of business leaders
about economic conditions naturally
carry very great weight, and for this
reason they should in the publio interest give at least as careful consideration td their public statements
at tills time as do any of the political leaders."
To bolster this'caution the Chamber of Commerce pointed to Finance
Minister Abbott's remarks to this
year's graduating class .at McGill
University, when he said:
"We are ln danger of being ridden'
by our fears—fe.ar of a depression,
fear of another war, fear of Communism and so on. Now these are
real enough dangers and I am not by
any means advocating an attitude ot
Pollyana optimism - toward them,
But these fears must not be allowed
to become malnspringe of- our action. >'":-•;

authority, to merge European economies into, a single continental market which Europe's financial plight
demands. ■- •

"have told us frankly thai the British trade unions would oppose, us
'If any measures (for union) led to
unemployment in Britain."

leaders shOuld convince their populations that each country should
manufacture what it is best able to

eventually mean a sacrifice of national sovereignty, but this is what
must be done.

Universities
Appeal for
Federal Aid
OTTAWA, Aug. 23 (CP) - Canadian Universities are being crippled by a lack of funds, the National Conference of Universities said
today In an appeal for direct financial' aid from the Federal Govern
ment
Without this aid, the Conference
said in a 15,000-word brief for the
Royal Commission on Arts and Science .' Development, Canadian Universities will be unable to keep up
with the growth of the Dominion
Or even maintain their present stature.. ;-;'.
Costs were Increasing and revenues   declining.   Many  of  the
Smaller colleges were In Jeopardy.
Without  further  financial , help
they soon may disappear altogether.,;. :,■' ;,   '..
The conference said lt realised
that the,British North America Act
assigned education tO the provinces
but - that since Confederation the
Federal  Government  has  become
more and, more dependent on the
universities.
Large sums of Government money were being spent by the National Research Council, the Defence
Research Board and Federal Health
and Agriculture Agencies ln university research. ;•'-,• •
In a way universities were working for the Federal Government and
getting less and less support from
the provinces/ .'','
PROPOSE TERMS*

1. .A direct Federal Government
annual grant, somewhat along the
lines,of grants made to student veterans, to professional faculties in
which training is most costly; medicine, dentistry, agriculture and forestry.
2. Expansion of grants-in-aid to
the faculties of,purj and applied
science through the National Research Council and in'addition a
system of "block" grants whloh the
universities could use as they saw
fit ,
3. Establishment of a Canadian
Council of Arts and Letters to sponsor the development of libraries,
art collections, museums and music
centres in various Canadian centres.. ,..-..
4. A system of Government scholarships and fellowships tor all University faculties and for post-graduate studies lh all-fields in and out
