_ THE GAZETTE, OLDS, ALBERTA, same as years ago. REDROSE TE Ais g00d tea” RED ROSE ORANGE PEKOE is éxtra good. == Great Britain has a problem and Canada has a problem, one being the exact opposite of the other. In.the British Isles there.is a surplus popula- tion for which employment cannot be found. In Canada there are enormous resources and vast areas of fertile lands which call for increased population in order that. development may take place.’ The Old Land has tee many péople; this New Land has too few. ; : Looking at the face of things it would seem to be a comparatively simple matter for the British and Canadian Governments to. evolve policies under which -the. surplus: population of Great Britain could be transferred to the epen spaces.of Canada, thus solving the problems of both countries. But the solution is not. so easy, in. fact, it is most complex and difficult. i 3 The class of settlers which Canada wants is the agricultural type, men and women who will go on the land. True, they may not have had actual farming experience to be welcomed and to succeed, but they must be of that ¢lass which is likely to make good on the land. — Great Britain, however, has no large surplus of this type, if, indeed, any surplus at all; The British surplus population is found among the workingmen, artizan and labor class; men and women who, because they ¢annot obtain steady employment, are obliged to. accept the Government dole. Opportunities for the employment of any large number of these peopie ‘in Canadian industry are small, and it would be most: unfair to them to encourage their immigration to Canada where their presetice- would have an injurious efiect on Canadian workmen and laber and lead to the creation of a Canadian situation not alike. the present one in Great Britain. The efforts of both the British and Canadian Governments are, therefore, eonfined to the training of.a limited number of immigrants for agricultural pursuits and the proper placing of them on farms in- Canada. Welcome as these efforts are, their effect. on the respective British and Canadian problems ef surpius and insufficient population is almost negligible. s There would seem to be 'u greater hope_of making an effective contribu- tion towards the solution of this joint pfoblem in the adoption of the idea | which bas been urged of late, namely, that the great captains in” British | ‘to | industry. establish branch plants’ in Canada in order to enable them successfully compete in the growing Canadian market with their United States rivals and that they staff these brafich plants with their own workmen trom the British Isles. : E The general adoption of such a policy would résult in profitable Anvest- ment of British capital, would lead to a marked development. of the natural resources .of this Dominion, would help to adjust the balance of Trade as between Canada and the United States, would add to the population of the Dominion prefitably employed, would ease the unemployment situation in the Old Land, and would increase the productive capacity, ihe prosperity and wealth of ihe Empire as a whole. It-will be frankly admitted that the industrial leaders.of Great Britain have had to face enormous difficulties during and since. the War. The have _borne, an are: still bearing, heavy burdens. They may justly feel that the present is pot the time to launch out of new'and untried ventures... The situation is, however, that only through the adoption of heroic measures will eonditions in the Old Land ‘be bettered, and some relief brought to British industry. Furthermore, under existing -ccnditions, British industries sre losing out in the Canadian market. An effort should be mede to hold and strengihen their position here before it is too late. : ii is gratifying to note that one big British concern has decided cn a great undertaking in. the Provinee of Quebec, an announcement has just been made that ‘British financial interests controlling. tens of millions of capital have finally concluded arrangements for the utilization of Southern Saskatchewan lignite coal in the carbonizing, and briquetting of this fuel on a large:commercial scale and will within the next few months invest hun-. dreds of thousands of dollars in the enterprise. i * Premier Brownlee of Alberta and Hon, Chas. A: Dunning have both been urging. the adoption of. this branch factory policy upon the British manufac- turer, and it is to be hoped that so astute a business man.as Premier Stanley | Baldwin himself a big munufacturer, will sée the advantages to Britain, to Ganada, to the Empire,-of such ‘a policy, and urge its adoption upon his tellow manuficturers in the British Isle a “Says Pre-War Days = Will Never Return Would: Help Aviators Towns Should .Show Their Naina Readable From Air British aviation.autloriries say the fimeé has come for English towns to Russian Prince’ Hints German Mon- archy Is Gone Forever “History does not. repeat Opportunities For Britain In Canada itself. | erect big signs with the names of the town ‘visible. to casual airmen who hop the Atlantic now with the sim- plest of navigation “instruments. and big. scale maps. ~ The request of Edward F.

Pree Se GIRLHOOD DANGERS |Come Through a Weakening Of the. Blood—A Tonic Is Needed In their early teens it is quite com- mon for girls to outgrow. their “strength, and mothers should care- tully watch the health of their daugh- ters at this time. It is when the strength is sapped by rapid growth that anaemia develops. Tle first signs may be noticed by peevisnness, | jiangour and headaches. ‘The face grows pale, breathlesshess and palpi- | jtation become .apparent, with low spirits and depression. F | Neglected anaemia offén léads to a ‘decline, but if. you see that your daughter’s blood is.’ enriched there iheed be no cause for anxiety. © The {dinest. blood-builder ever discovered ‘is Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. They will \build up your girl’s health and ensure for her healthy, womanhood. In proof .of this Mrs, George Justason, Black's “Harbor,;.N.L., says:-~“I think Dr: Williams’ Pink Pills .a wonderful |medicine. .My daughter, . Margaret, ‘was in. such a badly run down condi- tion that we feared. she was. going. jinto a decline. Her face’ was. pile, ‘the least exertion. would leave her jbreathless- and she suffered -trom |headaches. She had no appetite and lost a Jot in weight. Up. to ‘the time | we began giving her Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills, no treatment had helped {her. But thanks to the: use of -this yonderful medicine she is again well ‘trouble that had so weakened her.” | In all troublesedue to weak, watery | blood, Dr..

Farnners Will Benefit Greatly “By Ruling Of Raitway Commissioners By the ruling of the Board of Rail- way Commissioners on the equaliza- fion of grain rates, Saskatchewan will gain nearly $2,000,000 qnoually, starting this year..* : The figure is authentic and was proven at the hearing at thé freight rates probe. Heid this spring. Sas- katchewan’s¥ounsol, -W. Tl. McEweu, K.C., quoted it to support his argu- ment a ee in the West. Figurés in ositien to Mr: Me- Ewen’s submissions .to the Board were filed by counsel for the rail- ways. From these figures Alex. Me- Donaid, Saskatchewan's freight. rate expert, ‘showed. that’ Saskaichewan’s contention: was correct and -a. two million dollar saving annually to this province alone would accrue in a normal. year. It was only after long and arduous argument and appeal that the West was able to score the victory record- ed. It will be recalled that when the present year. opened, counsel for Al- berta and Saskatchewan, who pleaded jointly, were fighting hard to . get judgment on their case’ handed down | separately in order to tid€ve the new lrates apply on the 1927 crop. | An-appeal to. have the grain ‘sub- imissions heard apart from the gen- e jeral rates investigation was abortive j when earried as far as the Governor- | General-in-Councelil. Counsel returmed West only hoping that an carl$-ruling would be handed down to make a saving on the 1927 crop. The Generous Public | Patrons Of Benefit. Concert Qualified | To Receive Proceeds | It had been a cold. and stormy winter, and there had been a long strike in the main industry of the |liftle village: ‘There. was‘ some ‘suffer- -ing and a good deal. of want among the poorer people. A local philan- thropist arranged a public entertain- ;ment for their’ benefit. No. admis- sion’ was charged but a collection was to be taken at the close of: the pro- gram. - The ‘entertainment was a good one and it was thoroughly enjoyed by a: crowded House. Then the collection was taken. When it was counted, the philanthropic citlzen came to the front of the platferm “The collection,” he said, “amounts to three dollars: and sixty-seven cents. The proceeds you all under- stand, are for the benefit of the poor. | They seem to be -all-here!”—Youth’s !

Postmaster-General H. S; New has let it be known that le would welcome! applications. for air m&il ‘service be- tween such points as Minneapolis or St.. Paul, Mino.» and Winnipeg, Man., | where there is a fairly large exchange sof mail over a short distance. In fact | it is likely that preliminary steps wili } be taken soon to put in a trl ser- vice between these two cities but fin- al action will not. be taken until after the international air mail: conference in Geneva. ia? : It has beén customary for the Unit- ed States post. office ‘to await applica- tions, which usually take the form of petitions, signed by ‘a considerable number. of people béfore establishing new air mail routes. A guarantee of about $15,000 worth of business on any route is generally considered rea- sonable to justify opeiing a route. Miller's Worm Powders prove their value. They do not cause any violent | disturbances in the stomach, any pain | or griping, but do their work quietly | and painlessly, so that the destruction | of the worms is imperceptible. ¥et | they are thorough, and from the first | dose there is improvement in the con- | dition of the sufferer and a cessation | of manifestations of internal trouble. | British-Jap Naval Pact Is Reported | U.S. Informed Secrét Agreement Be- tween Nations Has Been Reached: The Washington Post says that word has reached the state depart- ment officials fron “trustworthy sources” that Great Britain and Jap- an came to a imutually satisfactory secret understanding regarding fu- ture *naval supremacy when it finally. became apparent-the United States would not accept the British program at the recent Geneva conference. The gist of the secret understand- ing has not been divulged, the news- paper adds, declaring that it is doubt- | ful if much definite information on its content is available to the officials | of the U.S. Governnient. The news- | | paper story also says the secret un- | derstanding is being « diseussed © be- hind elosed doors by officials here with a view to weighing possible z t i } } sequences.
