' PAGE TWELVE THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, 1929 EMIGRATION FRON | IRELAND GROWS Called "Symbol of National Suicide" As France's Birth-rate is a con- stant source of worry to the French the continued flow of emigra- on from Ireland profundly dis- turbs observers in the Irish Free State. The 'veritable procession" to the emigrant ports constitute a "gympo. of national suicide," 'fa the Ddf:ter phrase of the Dublin Weekly Irish Times, which notes with sorrow that the present emi gration is not confined to a nation- al surplus of the people, or to ad- venturous spirits whose gifts are for the development of new lands overseas. Rather, it is headlong fight from the land, we are toll a general desertion of that agricul- tural industry which, by all the laws of nature and economics, ought to be prosperous. Of further concern to this weekly is the fact that the young people who leave the Irish countryside do not go to new countries to apply their mus- cles and their trainifig to the es- tablishment of a new rural life and the enjoyment of economic inde- pendence ag owners of the land they tidd, and it is further assert- ed: "They reveal no quality in com~ mon with those Lowland Scottish farmers whose stock peopled the agricultural regions of the colonies, Instead, they crowd Into cities, which already are cver populated, and find employment, as a dule, 'n lower tasks which the native popu- lation spurns, Relatively seldom do they rise above menial employ- ment in the first generation; but inveriably, and from outset, they are obliged to toil in their new environment in a fashion that would make them comfortable, if not rich, at home, It may be gald with confidence that the farms of Ireland would be fruitful beyond the hopes of the most optimistic if the sons and daughters of farm- ers would work as earnestly at home as they are compelled to work: when they go overseas, "The exodus is due largely to an Insufficient cultivation of the rur- al idea. It is true that rural science has heen made an elsential subject in the primary schools of the Free State; but it hardly can be sald that the young minds of the land are directed steadily to- ward the ideal of a rural policy The leaders of the people and their parliament do not concentrate their energies upon the reversal of the flight from the soil, A journey through any part of the land et this season is depressing to th. observer whose eyes take note uf the txigous strips of plowed earth and whose ears are cttent've to the silence of unlabored fie.ds." Without denying gratitude to those who have worked out, and have indeed the State to bring into operation, so many sagacious mea- sures for the improvement of agri- cultural produce and for its better marketing. The Irish Weekly Times feels obliged to deplore a lack cf such clearnees of vision and such celerity of action as, for example, won the "battle of the grain" in Italy. As to urban legislation, we read: Dublin has been growing without a plan, and its traffic has become increasingly dangerous and uneconomic, Never- thelesg, the Greater Dublin mea- sure, which has heen promised in session after session of Dail Eir- eanu, still remains but a plous hope," "For years CANADIAN LEGION, All Ex-Ser a.m. Dress.--Mufti with No. 43 CORDIALLY INVITES and Ladies' Auxiliary Members to join with them on parade for the visit of His Excellency, Viscount Willingdon, on Monday, Sept. 16th Parade will fall in at Memorial Park at 10.30 OSHAWA BRANCH vice Men Decorations.

SUNLIGHT USED Ay CURE FOR RICKETS London, Sept. 12--Recommenda- tion, based on a three months de- monstration in a clinic at Sherwood Collier, England, that similar sta- tions be established on a nation-wide scale for treatment by artificial sun- light of rickets, certain forms of tuberculosis, rheumatic, skin and ner- vous discascs and anacnua, is con- tained in a recent joint report of the New Health Society and: Sunlight League of Great Britain, These organizations, comprising both medical and lay members and directors, declared that results of the demonstration were "astonishing" to lay men and hrought about public appreciation of artificial sunlight treatment, the benefits of which have been known for years by the pro. fession and lately confirmed follow- ing the development of the quartz mercury sun-lamp for the projection of ultra-violet rays.

For another group the average weight increase was two pounds, 10 and a fraction ounces and the average height increase was 0.50 inches.

With the backing of congress, the government oh several occasions has gone on record as favoring guch agreementg, Therefore an ef- fort to break down negotiations undertaken by the government with other powers might well be cou- strued as an attack upon the United States government which: would put it in the category of treason, Senator Shortridge, chairman of the sub-committee of the com- mittee on naval affairs, appointed to conduct the investigation or- dered by the senate at the instance o! Senator Borah, made it clear today that there is no disposition to prejudge the case by any mem- ber of the sub-committee, He will proceed on the theory that the accused are presumed to be inno- cent until proven guilty, Every= body will be accorded a fair hear- ing, Senator Shortridge said. The sub-committee will meet to- morrow to prepare a list of wit nesses to be subpoenaed, the or- der in 'which they will be heard ond the time subpoenaes will be returnable. Chairman Shortridge indicated that several days will pass before the inquiry gets actu- ally under way.
