Schmidt from the Chicago Medical Society presumably on the ground that he was a party to "unethical adver- tising" has aroused considerable controversy in the United States. Dr. Schmidt is the president of the Illinois Social Hygiene League, a body which was assoc jated with the Chicago Public Health Institute, and which received from it fees of $1,000 a: month for treating charity patients suffering from social diseases. But the Chicago Public Health Institute advertised its services, and thus, accord- ing to the Chicago Medical Society, Dr. Schmidt was indirectly connected with an institution whicn was guilty of 'unethical advertising," and was expelled from the society. It does not take much common-sense to realise that the pretext of '"'unethical advertising' was a very shallow excuse trumped up for the purpose of getting rid of a man who was proving himself a public benefactor. It is far more likely that the real reason behind his expulsion was that the patients being treated by him were being treated at very low fees, or free of charge. This, of course, might detract from the profitable practices of his colleagues, and, in their sight, would be an un- pardonable sin. This incident is but another case of the: dic- tatorial attitude which is sometimes apparent in the medical profession in the United States. It is regrettable that there should be an attitude of this kind, but the round-about method adopted in an effort to halt the philanthropic activities of Dr Schmidt do not redound to the credit of those who expelled him from the Chicago Society. It is to be hoped that the medical profession in this country is on a much higher plane, is willing to recognize work such as was being done by Dr. Schmidt in combatting social diseases of charity patients, and to support, rather than condemn it. STRANGE BEDFELLOWS The old saying that politics makes strange bed- fellows might well be applied to the present situa- tion in Saskatchewan. In that province an alliance has been made between the Conservatives, the Pro- gressives and the Independents, giving that combina- tion group 35 seats out of the 61 in the legislature, and thus paving the way for the overthrow of the Liberal government and the naming of Dr. J. T. M. Gardner, Conservative leader, as the next premier of the prairie province. Here a rather paradoxical situation is created. The Saskatchewan Progressives in the federal field are allied with the Liberals, helping to maintain a Liberal government at Ottawa. In the provincial field, the Progressives are backing the Conserva- tive party, for the sole purpose of putting out of power a government of the same stripe as their colleagues of the party are supporting at Ottawa. It seems a bit inconsistent, of course, but all is fair in politics, and so long as political consciences can be made sufficiently elastic, such things are bound to happen. WHAT'S IN A NAME Some folks will insist that there is nothing much in a name. Yet Ramsay MacDonald must have felt that there was something in a name after all when he filled the minor positions in his government, for a perusal of the list shows 'that Lord de la Warr has been chosen as the under. secretary of the war office. In spite of the pacific protestations of the Labor government, it will have to face the fact that it has a real "Warr" lord in the war office. = = . Fl THE VALUE OF TOURIST TRAFFIC The steady growth of tourist traffic through Can- ada, and the consequent increase in the amount of money expended by the tourists provides the basis for an interesting report issued by the Dominion Bureau of Statistics. This report shows that in 1928 the tourist trade brought a total of $250,501,000 into Canada, an in crease of about $35,000,000 over the total of $2165, 768,000 reported in 1928. Of this immense amount of revenue, the major portion, well over one third of the whole, came to Ontario, with the balance spread over the rest of the nine provinces of the dominion. Ontario, it would seem, is the favorite province of the tourists, Perhaps this is because of its closer proximity to the thickly populated sections of the United States, perhaps it is because of ihe richness of the scenic beauty of the province, and perhaps there may be other reasons. The moral, however, is that it is worth while to go to considerable effort to retain this tourist busi- pess, Mayor Wilson of the town of Gananoque is one of those- who senses the value of giving the tourists a hearty welcome, and visitors to that com- munity are made to feel at home at once. This is an attitude well worth copying by other communi. ties, for it is only when he is made to feel welcome that the tourist takes home with him good reports of the land through which he has travelled, or comes back again for a second visit. CONGRATULATIONS The city of Hamilton is to be congratulated, not only on the opening of its airport, but also on the enterprise of its leading newspaper, the Ham- * ilton Spectator, which published a splendid Avia- tion edition in conjunction with that important event. It has been said on more than one occasion that the newspapers of Canada have not given suf- ticient backing to the development of aviation. Whether that be true or not it at least cannot be said of our Hamilton contemporary, which, in this special edition, has made 2 marked contri- bution to the public's knowledge of flying, and has given aviation a decided boost in a com- munity which has proven its air-mindedness by establishing an airport. Our congratulations go to The Spectator for the excellence of its material and pictures deail- ing with flying and for its enterprise in seizing upon the opportunity to place before the people it serves the advantages of havinz a modern air- port established in the city. MR. SINCLAIR IN THE NORTH W. E. N. Sinclair, the Ontario Liberal leader, is having an interesting time in Northern Ontario. What he is telling the people up there in his addresses is very important, for he is enunciating - new policies for his party. But what is of still more importance, not only to Mr. Sinclair, but to the Liberal party and the province as a whole, is what the people up there are telling Mr, Sin- clair. By this we mean that it is apparent that Mr. Sinclair is lear 'ng much that he did not realize before about tue great nour country. It takes first hand experience and first hand acquaintance with such a vast and wealthy area to give any- one a real conception of its possibilities, its pro- blems and its needs, and the utterances of the Liberal leader have shown that he is willing to learn, and to profit from what he is learning. Northern Ontario affairs are bound to play a prominent part in the next provincial election. Mr. Ferguson, of course, claims to be quite an author- ity on the north, on account of many visits there in recent years, and as head of the Temiskaming and Northern Ontario Railway, which is owned by the Ontario government. Now Mr, Sinclair has been north. The people up their might well say of him that he came, he saw, and was conquered. He will probably come back with a new vision of Northern Ontario, for none of us are ever too old to catch new visions if the right spirit is there, and with new vision, Mr. Sinclair can apply his new found knowledge of Northern Ontario, so that, no matter what the political future of the province may be from a party standpoint, the needs of the north will be well provided for by governments yet to come. HE MAY BE WRONG The high handed attitude which is being taken by Lloyd George in connection with the accession to power of the Labor government in Britain may not be altogether to the liking of the British pub- lic. Although he has by far the smallest group of the three major political parties, he is making no bones of the fact that he expects to hold the balance of power, and that he will expect the government to jump when he cracks the whip. Although it is a Labor government, he declares that "the mandate of the government ends when it fails to pursue a Liberal policy." Perhaps it will, but it is not likely. The Con- servative party still has a large say in British politics, in spite of the claims of Lloyd George, and it might be possible that the government could mightily displease Lloyd George, yet still win Con- servative support to remain in office and avert another election The Conservatives of Great Britain are infense- ly loyal to their country, and it is not likely that they would imperil the life of the government for some time to come, no matter what Lloyd George might do. In fact, the Liberal leader is likely to find that the Labor government will go along on its own sweet way, trying its best to give sound legislation and good administration in order to win the votes necessary to keep it in power. A POINT OF EDUCATION ---- The game warden in Victoria County who made a seizure of poached frogs legs has rendered a distinct service to the people of Ontario, Who would ever have imagined that it is against the law to go out frog-hunting in May or June, par- ticularly when these little animals are possessed of legs whose sweetness exceeds that of the chick- en? Of course, the law invoked was an old one. passed in 1907, and one might be pardoned for knowing nothing about it. Even the game warden would have had a good excuse for being ignor- ant of the fact that frogs are given legal protec- tion in May and June. But the people of Ontario should all know it now, and the frogs will likely be left to croak in peace until the 1st of July, at least, EDITORIAL NOTES To-night's figures will tell the tale for Oshawa's future.

Enforcing the Law (Border Cities Star) President Hoover went into office on a platform that contained a strong prohibition plank. Even before he secured the Republican nomination he declared, in answer to Senator Borah's question, that he stood for enforcement of the prohibition law. The indications from Washington are that Mr. Hoover is trying to make good on this promise. He has just dispatched a special note to Congress calling for reorganization of the Federal bureaus connected with prohibition enforcement and re- commending that a joint committee of Congress be appointed at once to study the problem in conjunction with -a departmental committee and the newly-appointed National Com- mission on Law Observance and En- forcement. It will be noticed that Mr. Hoover makes no specific suggestion as to how the reorganization should be accomplished. It is understood, how- ever, that he plans to have all en- forcement activities transferred from the Treasury to the Department of Justice. It is well known, of course, that there has been much criticism of the prohibition enforcement ma- chinery being left to the department of the treasury, a branch of govern- ment presided over by Mr. Mellon. The criticism is based on the conten- tion that the justice department is the proper organization to handle the work and that the effectiveness of the enforcement machinery is de- eidedly reduced by virtue of the per- sonal opposition that Mr. Mellon is said to have for the prohibitory law. From Washington yesterday, also, came an announcement of plans for an intensive summer campaign to check the flow of smuggled liquor across the Canadian border in the Windsor-Detroit area. Customs, pro- hibition and coastguard forces are scheduled to co-operate, under the direction of Mr. E. R. Northwood, who is being transferred from Nor- thern New York to take charge of the Detroit section. Another incident this week was the resignation of Mr. Carey D. Fer- guson, collector of customs for the Michigan district. Mr. Ferguson stepped out, apparently, under pres- sure, for he has issued a statement that he has no apologies to make for "not having been successful in stop- 'ping completely the flow of rum from Canada." Though admitting his fail- ure, the retiring collector asserts that lack of funds, equipment and person- nel seriously handicapped him in his efforts. That a more determined attempt to enforce the American dry law than we have ever seen before, is about to be made, is very evident. Mr. Hoover evidently appreciates that his administration is on trial before the bar of public opinion. The Pre- sident, in his previous capacities, achieved a great reputation for "get- ting things done." That was the chief quality that landed him in the White House. One of the things that Mr. Coolidge failed signally to "get done" was the enforcement of prohibition. Certainly it should not be difficult for Mr. Hoover to at least surpass the Coolidge record in this respect. The other day a large group of very prominent men issued an ap- peal to the American people, asking for personal observance of the Eigh- teenth Amendment. Mr. Ford, Mr. W. C. Durant and Mr. Alfred P. Sloan were among the great ifdus- trial leaders who signed it. This week in Washington, Sir Esme How- ard, the British ambassador to the United States, announced that in fu- ture he and his associates would not utilize the liguor-immunity privilege granted all representatives of for- eign Governments. Mr. Ford is pleased with this move and says that other embassies will follow suit "if they have any sense." And probably they will, because Sir Esme's action practically forces them to. Really, it is ridiculous that in a country that is officially *dry," the represen- tatives of other powers should be allowed alcoholic privileges that the citizens of the nation to which they are accredited do not possess. Progress is being made by the United States in a prohibition way. There is still much to be done, there is still a long road to be traveled, but there are signs that the lesson is sinking home, that the country is beginning to appreciate, in a very general way, the advantages of a law which says that alcohol is a delusion and a snare.

Aviation is coming into its own in Canada and Canadians are be- coming thoroughly airminded. Three airports were opened early in June at Ottawa, Kingston, and Hamilton, at which a great assem- blage of planes took place and large crowds witnessed the pro- ceedings. Many took advantage of the opportunity to send mail and parcels by air express during these functions and the Canadian Pacific Express Company used the planes to advantage.

Barton, M.D. HUNGER CAUSES RESTLESSNESS Perhaps you are amused when you see a baby crying, to notice how quickly he subsides when he is given his "bottle" of milk. . The restless little rascal settles away into a quiet contented cherub. Drs. M. and G. Scham, Minneapolis, have been able to show a strong re- lationship between hunger or lack of nourishment, and restlessness or ner- vousness. They carried out a study of under- nourishment in children, with special emphasis on symptoms of nervous- ness and fatigue. They report that hunger is the cause of activity and that a positive relation exists between activity and loss of weight. That in cases of undernourishment a sufficient or adequate diet reduces the activity with an immediate in- crease in weight. Lack of food or undernourishment produces irritability and restlessness. The study showed that the symp- toms of nervousness and fatigue are more numerous in children whose height and weight is more than 10 per cent. below normal. They suggest forced feeding and the rest cure for undernourished children as it reduces and improves nervous symptoms, increases the ability of the body processes to work and hastens the gain of weight. I believe most physicians agree with these suggestions. However what about suggestions for "grown ups." Now there are cases as Dr. Weir Mitchell showed us years ago, where forced feeding and rest was of great help. However an adult has his growth and does not need the food and rest for this purpose. However most nervous irritable in- dividuals do need plenty of good food to nourish all the cells of the body, the nervous system included. But this food is not needed for growth, therefore, it must be taken care of by the body. This is properly done by regular exercise, outdoors if possible, which will H. makes 'the heart pump harder and sends blood to every cell. This blood will be good blood because it 1s made out of good food and fresh air. And as to rest; if you eat good food and get plenty of exer- cise rest or sleep will come natural- 1y. After all a healthy animal is one that eats well and works or is ex- ercised. The sleep or rest part | comes naturally.
