Eo || §4 1 Japan Finds Nickel. Tokip reports, with evwident elation, that, a large deposit of nickel ore has heen found in Korea. The ore is said to be rich enough to pay the working, and contains other minerals which will help to bear the cost. That will consolidate Japan‘s position as the inâ€" dustrial country of the East. Nickel is being used in a constantly increasâ€" ing variety of ways for manutacturâ€" ing purposes, chiefly for hardening steel. Until recent years Japan had to import both fron and nickel, or nickelâ€"stee!. Now that it can draw iron and coal from Manchuria and micke!l from Korea, it will be indeâ€" pendent of foreign sources of supply, and its competitors will know what to expect in the way of increased competition.

The spinach crusade got away to a good start. The doctors spoke of a certain vitamin it conâ€" tained which could not be secured elsewhere; health clinics favored stokâ€" Ing away great bales of the stuff, and men who write health articles for the newspapers chipped in and began tellâ€" Ing the masses what spinaeh would do for them. People have the notion that they need more vitamins, They have no particular idea what vitamins will do to them or for them, and that is why spinach managed to skewer itself on popular fancy. You can jest at spinach if you like, but you can‘t spot it. The people are ill for it; if you detest the stuff that makes no difference; the rule is that t‘s good for you. All that is necesâ€" ary to make any particular thing opular is to have the right people ay it contains vitamins.â€"Stratford That Kindly Word.

There were faint hearts in this counâ€" try who at one time doubted whether auy good purpose would be served by Indian collaboration with the Select Committee, unique as the _opportunity offered to them was. One important fact is the team spirit of the Indian delegates. There was greater cohesion between them than ever before. On most issues they were able to present a united front, and at the close they R iresented a joint memorandum. This uisplay of unity by Hindus, Muslims land other minorities is bound to have its effect, since nothing weakens Inâ€" dia‘s case and strongthens the hands of opponents of the White Paper in England so much as conflicting claims by various communities, which lend color to the old story of a house divided against itself.

To determine the precise causes of an industrial revival is never a simple task, but, unquestionably, the policies of Britain‘s National Government have played a large part in her conâ€" valescence. British _ manufacturers are certain today of the home marâ€" ket, and the tariffs have provided Britain with an exceedingly valuable weapon of bargaining. States which only two or three years ago turned a stony face to all the demands of Britâ€" ish Governments and manufacturers for easier access through their tariff walls are pleading now for a similar favor from Britain. Her commerce with Germany, with the Argentine and with Russia has been, or is beâ€" ing, brought to a condition of equiâ€" librium. The Ottawa Conference has given her a hold on the Dominiors, whose attitude to British manufacturâ€" ers formerly had been little differâ€" ent from that of foreign nations; and all parties are deriving solid benefits from their bargain. â€"Weekly Irish Times. Ceylon‘s Need: Statistics. The time has come when Ceylon, like other countries, has to begin to think in figures to a much greater exâ€" tent than it has been accustomed. Hitherto this country has displayed @ lamentable distaste for statistics which is evidenced not only by the absence of any wellâ€"organized statisâ€" tical service, but also by the lack of independent and serious students of the economics of the country. The newspapers cannot perform the funcâ€" tions of economic and trade journals and statistical departments.
