"Our present trade between China and Japan'is considerable, but fl is nothing like what it may become of thoughfully developed and jeal- ously guarded.

C,, April 23--Despite a basic handicap brought about by the depreciation of silver--a circum- practically prohibits optimistic country in the world. At least it was found so by Lieut.- Col. Gerald W. Birks, Montreal, head '\ of the National Council of the Y.M. - CA, who arrived in Vancouver on . 'the Empress of Japan. He is on his way home after an 'extensive tour in the Orient. . "The Orient, like the rest of us, is feeling the effects of the world "depression," Lieut.-Col, Birks said. ©.

"While clearly recognizing all these difficulties which still face that coun- try, I am simply amazed at the tre- dous advances China has made ht the one short year, since my last visit, and am ready to agree with a Chinese business friend that she is 'the first country to start climbing out of the universal depression." r Ne MANY PROBLEMS | OFT.B.

"4ipccording to the commitiee of 'the National Research Council on t losis research, much work remains to be done before the pro- pblems of an effective vaccine against 'tuberculosis are solved."

The doctors meet once a year un- der the auspices of the National Re. search Council. The most import- ant phase of the study, of course, has been in the vaccination of chil- dren. Another side of the investi- gation is whether calves may not be vaccinated and avoid the costly pro- cess now in use of destroying cattlo which react to the tuberculin tests. . Degree of Resistance The statement sets forth that the committee agrees "B.C.G.'™ confers a degree of resistance to tubercu- losis. but the nature and extent has not been clearly demonstrated. Fur- ther studies are to be conducted to clear up these points definitely. About 1,000,000 infants have been vaccinated against tuberculosis. "What the committee agrees in the present state of knowledge o the subject," the statement set forth, "particularly on the keenly- debated vaccine of the Pasteur In- stitute of Paris, commonly known as B.C.G., has been set out in a formal statement. The committee considered that the time had come when such a declaration, as from the entire committee, should be made and published. It was drawn up at the annual meting on Sature der nftar a sub-committee appointed Av had renorted." The decisions arrived at are sume. mn AJUOWS Anderson's | Start Another Shirt Sale Tomorrow Famous Makers Forsyth Arrow Tooke Stetson Regular up to $3.00 | Friday and | Saturday & Anderson's 5 Simcoe St. S, "Briefly, it is the opinion of the |committee that B.C.G. represents a strain of bovine tubercle bacillus of reduced 'virulence and pathogenicity that has acquired relatively fixed characters as to its virulence when grown on a specific medium, but in- vestigators differ as to whether or not it is still pathogenic to labora- tory animals particularly sensitive to tuberculosis. It has been found culosis have been widely discussed virulence may be enhanced. "The committee agreed that when used as a vaccine B.C.G. confers a degree of resistance to tuberculosis, but the nature and extent of that resistance have not yet been clearly demonstrated. An outline of studies and other points was aproved." Work Accomplished accomplished as follows: "B.C:G. (named after Prof. A. Calmette, the director of the Pas- teur Institute, and his colleagues, Guerin) has to date been used in various countries to vaccinate a total of approximately 1,000,000 in. fants against tuberculosis. In the ef- fort against bovine tuberculosis it has been put forward as a preven- tive measure that would eventually make unnecessary the expensive method now commonly employed of destroying animals reacting to the tuberculin tests. 'Canadian researches on tuber- culosis have bben widely discussed in both Europe and America, par- ticularly those of Dr. E. A, Watson of the animal diseases research sta- tion, Dominion Department of Agri- culture, at Hull, Que.,, who has challenged claims put forward by Calmette; Dr. A. C. Rankin, of the University of Alberta, and Dr. J. A. Baudouin, of the University of Mon- treal, whose work has tended to support Calmette's contentions, and Dr. G. B. Reed, of Queen's Univer- sity. Dr. Watson and Dr. Rankin have carried on extensive experi- ments with cattle and Dr. Baudouin has supervised the inoculation and study of infants in Montreal. Dr. Reed has recently made on import- ant contribution to the knowledge on the subject and will publish his results shortly." Dr. H. M. Tory presided at the conference and 25 men and women engaged in the study of the disease took part. DUST Dust can never be for very long out of our thoughts or our eyes. It bears an important relation to fogs and rains. It causes our col- orful sunsets. The air is never free from it. Volcanic dust has heen found thousands of miles from its source. Pollen from Alaska has been carried far into this country. To the housewife, dust is a con- tinual problem. The painter who is putting a fine finish on furni- ture or automobiles must make special provision to keep out the dust. That created in the course of certain manufacturing processes sometimes reaches explosive pro- portions. From the point of view of health dust is also very important, espec- jally in its effect on industiral workers. In some cases dust cre- ated in manufacturing processes is definitely poisonous, even in small amounts. For instance, lead dust in storage battery plants, potteries and other industries. There are also other poisonous dusts. It is desired to call attention to another aspect of dust in its rela- tion to health. The breathing in by the worker of large amounts of fine particles not in themselves poisonous. If the dust is of sufficient fine- ness (much too small to see with the naked eye), some of it will get into the lungs. Dust containing free silica or quartz has been found to have a very injurious effect if present in sufficient quantities, producing silicosis, a fibrosis of the lungs which predisposes to a fatal form of tuberculosis. Many dusts also cause minor upper res- piratory diseases, and in some cases skin affections. Workmen employed in the dusty trades com- prise the largest group exposed to any particular industrial hazard. The body can protect itself from a good deal of dust. Small hairs specialized cells of the bronchial tubes intercept some of the par- ticles of dust before they reach the lungs. But as much as 13 grams of silica rock dust were found in the lungs of a miner whe dled from silicosis. In the various industries, all kinds of dust are encountered. Or- ganic dusts, such as animal and vegetable fibers are found in the textile trades, in flour milling, in sawmills, and in other industries. Inorganic dusts, which include cal- cium, silica, and other. mineral dusts, are found in various grind- ing processes, in granite-cutting, in mines, or in cement making, and in many other industries. The harmful effect on the body of breathing large amounts of dust depends on the character of the dust, the amount to which the worker is exposed and the length of time he has been breathing the dust. In order to obtain more def- inite information in regard to these three points, the United States Public Health Service has made a series of investigations, each dealing with a different type of dust, In these studies, the cause and severity of disabling illness among the workers have been observes over a period of time, from one to three years; careful physical exam- inations have been made, X-rays of the Jungs have been obtained wherever possible, and careful de- terminations have been made as to the amount and kind of dust present. Six kinds of dust have heen studied: Calcium dust in a Port- land cement plant; silica dust in sranitewcutting plants; carbon dust in coal mines; vegetable dust in a cotton manufacturing plant; metal and other dusts in a silver polishing plant; and munigjpal dust to which street swegp exposed.
