Tresidder, representative, REPRESENTATIVES IN U.S, Powers ond Stone Inc., New York and Chicago . SATURDAY, MAY 31, 1930 BEFORE THE PEOPLE Parliament has been dissolved. By rushing the business of the house through at an unseemly rate of speed during the last few days, it was possible for Pre- mier King last night to prorogue parliament, declare a dissolution, and issue the writs for the general election, so that it could be held on July 28. So now the date is known. On July 28 the people of Canada will go to the polls to elect those who will represent them in the next parliament, and to decide which party will hold the reins of power for the next four or five years. » Ld . LJ] Today the members of parliament are flocking back to their constituencies, to gird themselves for the fray. Soon they will be on the hustings, declaring that 'this is the most monentous election in the history of this Canada of ours," and imploring the electors to vote this way or that in order ! that the future destiny of the country may "be safeguarded. Since it is to be a summer- 'time election, some novel features of elec- tioneering are likely to be injected into the campaign, and much of the speaking will "probably be done out-of-doors 'at picnics, garden parties, and other events of that type. Thus it should be an interesting cam- paign, one which the people should enjoy, so long as they can stand the spate of oratory "that will be poured out upon them. The issue has ean fairly ell defined by the government. The Dunning budget is sure to be the outstanding item 'in the cams paign. With its provisions for wider im- perial preferences, briek-for-brick tariffs against countries which erect tariff walls against Canada, and seasonal tariffs on vege- tables and fruits, the budget. is a little dif- ferent from former Liberal documents of this nature. Yet it was framed with a view to catching the popular imagination, and the government candidates will certainly try to make the most of it. . Ll It is interesting " recall, at this met the famous reciprocity election of 1911, In that campaign, Sir 'Laurier went before the country on a policy with: reciprocity of tariffs with the United . , and he went down to defeat. 'The Conservatives, led by Sir Robert Borden, worl the oléction with the battle-cry "No truck or trade with the Yankees," and by holding up the spectre of annexation before the, eyes of the voters. n this on, "ings are a trifle twist. oo gO we find the Liberal government ad- vancing' the cause of intra-Empire relations by wi the British preferences, and 'shutting the door on the United Statgs with 'countervailing duties. And we find Mr, Ben. . nett declaring in the House of Commons that would be just as well for Canadian money io the the United States in exchange for to the West Indies, an important fe Bin Hapite.

The point stressed by The Times was that theré was no justification for sad- dling on the municipalities the expenses for what is a purely provincial affair, and that this was but one instance for the tendency on the part of the provincial government to place undue burdens on the shoulders of the cities, towns and rural municipalities of On- tario, This protest has now been taken up by other newspapers in the. province. The Sault Ste Marie Star took strong exception to that city having to pay several hundred dollars which should legitimately have been paid by the provincial government. ' And the Toronto Globe also adds its voice to the note of protest, and shows that this method con- stitutes a direct levy on' the municipalities towards provincial revenues, Obviously, the whole system is unfair, and the protest should not be allowed to rest with newspaper editorials, The Ontario Municip- al Association is an important body, and it should be the business of that body to con ment pay its own debts, rather than saddle them on the municipalities. The protest might not be successful, but it" would, at least, be interesting to find out just what Premier Fergtison can say in defence of this flagrant imposition on the lesser governing bodies of Ontario: RELIGION AND MEDICINE In Canada, as in other enlightened coun- tries, individuals are wonderfully free to fol low their own religious beliefs. There were days when this was not so, days when in. tolerance was prevalent to a very marked degree. These were the days wheh people were persecuted because of their religious faith, but such persecution has no place in the modern world. In its place there has come a spirit of tolerance, an admission that individuals have the right to follow their own forms and own doctrines in religious worship. This, probably, has been the cause ol the establishment of so many different ts and groups, propagating a wide variety religious views. tirely of the individual, and no one has the right to interfere. tion to' make possible acts which are not in the interests of the physical well-being of those people who adhere to it, the matter gets beyond the status of religious liberty, and becomes one of public interest. Thus it is a matter for gratification that the House of Commons voted down an amendment to the criminal code to exempt from the possi- bility of criminal prosecution people who re- fuse to call in doctors in case of illness. No one desires to criticise Christian Sci ence or any other form. of religious belief, 80 long as it is confined to religion; . Neither can any one object if an individual decides for himself, while in condition to make a proper decision, that he does not want medi. cal attention, But there is a danger in'the applications of the tenets: of Christian Sci- ence to those who are not:in a position to decide for themselves, as in the case of chil dren or people who are too ill.to be: able to give sound consideration to their own posi- tion. The laws of Canada are designed to give a fundamental law that people: in need of medical attention must be given that atten- tion, in spite of the views of those + who 'would take religion out of its proper place, and make it a substitute for instéad of a complement to, the knowledge and skill of qualified medical men.

In fact no illness just hap- pens, it dévelops from some cause. Now Dr. A, F, MacCallan re- minds us that these conditons are due to an Infection whose products reach the eye and its surroundings by three paths. First directly from bad tonsils, very had teeth, caturra- hal or pus conditioys in the nose or sinuses adjoinng the nose. Second, by absorption from the adjoinng lymphatic vessels, which have just absorbed the poisons from mouth, nose or throat, Third, from the poison from had teeth and tonsils, which gets swal- lowed with the food, goes to stom- ach and small Intestine, from whence it Is absorbed Into the blood.
