Markets For Wheat The news that Canada is finding an in- creasing market for wheat in China is decidedly interesting. While the United States is finding it necessary to provide credits for. China, in: order to sell wheat to that country, Canada has been all along selling her wheat for cash, over 500,000 bushels having been sold in the last week. The possibilities for developing a huge wheat market in China are promising, in spite of the difficulties in which that coun- try finds itself. Three years ago, when Dr. Teyhi Shieh was in Oshawa lecturing at the Chautauqua, he made: the positive assertion that the Chinese were turning from rice to wheat as their staple article of diet. Estimating the average human consumption of wheat at eight bushels per person per year, he developed the thought that if the 400,000,000 people of China all took to eating wheat, it would take ten times the exportable surplus of Canada, in a good year, to supply that demand. These are amazing figures, but they show what the possibilities are. The great drawback at the present time is that China is on a silver standard of currency, and with silver at only half its normal value, the purchasing power of the Chinese is far below normal. The creation of a double standard of currency, of both gold and silver, or the rapid appreciation of the value of silver, would therefore seem to be essential for a full development of the wheat trade with China. Even under present conditions, however, it is improv- ing, is growing rapidly, and since Canada's chief need at the present time is a market for the huge wheat surplus, that is all to the benefit of this country. Eliminating a Deadly Gas The important and interesting announce- ment is made that Prof. E. A. Alleut of the University of Toronto, has, after three pears of research work and tests, discover- 2d a means of eliminating the deadly flow of carbon monoxide gas from the éngines of automobiles. His discovery is a very simple one, and involves merely certain adjustments of the carburetor, by which the gasoline will all be consumed within the motor, and there will be no carbon monoxide gas left for discharge. It seems so simple that one wonders why automotive engineers have not discovered this long before now. Carbon monoxide gas poisoning has taken a heavy toll of life in recent years, and it would indeed be a blessing if a definite method has been found to control it. The professor's theory, it is claimed, will dispose of the carbon monoxide gas when the engine has heen warmed up. Unfortunately, most of the deaths from this cause result from the fumes coming from cars standing in gar- ages, with the doors closed, while the engine is being started or warmed up. The real need is the discovery of some way to prevent the gas causing death under these conditions. Progress, however, is being made in this direction. If it has been found that slight adjustments will prevent carbon monoxide gas being expelled from a warm engine, then it should not be long before the other step is taken, and the same ideas applied to cold engines. The automotive industry is waiting for something like this, and no one will be better pleased than the auto- mobile manufacturers when it is found. Canada's Pension Laws In his presidential address at the open- g of the annual provincial convention of thé Ontario Command of 'the Canadian ion at Sault Ste, Marie this week, Lt.- I. F. J. Picking, the provincial president, ade the declaration that the pensions act Canada was the finest of any of the tions which took part in the war. That a sweeping statement, but those who made a study of these questions know t to be true. There may be countries with ore generous payments, such as the Jnited States, but in no country are the visions of the act so fair to the dis- wbled war veteran, In spite of this, there has 'heen, for the ast two years, great dissatisfaction with he application of this act to individual . The principles of the act are sound, the Ontario Provincial . / THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 1932 but, as Col. Picking pointéd out, the administration is far from being what it should be. There are seemingly endless delays in securing decisions. The appeal provisions are being badly abused by the board of pension commissioners, and cases are allowed to drag on for years without a. satisfactory decision being given. These are conditions which are serious for the disabled veterans, but not so seri- ous from the standpoint of administration that they cannot be overcome. Veterans are pinning their hopes for remedying them on the present committee of investi- gation which is sitting at Ottawa. It is empowered to inquire thoroughly into the weakness in administration, and to recom- mend such changes to the government as may seem necessary. It should not be a difficult matter to set the difficulties right, and then Canada would not only have the best pension act in the world, but would, in addition, have the most fairly admin- istered pension act.

The depositing public has become aware that banks functioning normally and legitimately have a large proportion of their re- sources tied up in loans to farm- ers, business men, industries, home builders, etc., that cannot be readily liquidated without great loss, if not ruin, to a com- munity, »~ The depositing public also knows that if a few depositors withdraw their funds, there is a likelihood that there will not be sufficient ready cash to go around. There- fore, when neighbor suspects neighbor of withdrawing funds, especially for h'arding purposes, disaster is sure to result. for one does what he suspects the other of doing.
