Jew*, the publication asserted, were effecting a "come back,' especially in real e.-^^ate Import an<l raw materials business. 'German objectivity," which has resulted in Ihe slogan, "economic life must not be disturbed," permitted the retum of Jews to prominence, it was said. British Policeman Killed JKItrSALKM.- Cuerrllla bands of Arabs struck new terror in the Holy I,and this week-end. niul two young British policemen fell in a predawn anihiish on the Bethlehem road. G. W. Kickards, M.P., for Skipton, Kngland, announced the discovery of a germicide which, he claimed, would free milk from bacteria with- out pasteurization. The srermicicie will be offered to the nation. "PVe.<!h discoveries prove that pas- teurization adds factors which per- manently and adversely alter the character, composition and nutrition- al values of fresh milk," Mr. Rick- ards .said. Conflict of Opinion "There is a great conflict of opin- ion as to what percentage of tuber- cular disea.se is due to bacteria in milk, but the children of parents who are comparatively well off drink more milk than the poor, and yet suffer far less from tuberculosis. "Fresh milk is so absolutely essen- tial for building up a child's body that many people believe that, if 100 children drank infected milk they would suffer less disease than 100 children who drink no milk at all. "But, if pasteurization is made compulsory, fresh milk will disap- pear from the English market. "Fortunately, the country is now able to Ret, if it decides to do so, milk free from bacteria, without spoiling: it by pasteurization. Free From Bacteria "This is due to the discovery of a germicide by a leading medical sci- entist who, in conjunction with .some of the ablest and greatest experts in the country, has spent many years working on this problem. "The addition of a few drops of this germicide makes milk practically free from bacteria and it is absolutely harmless, has no smell or taste, and docs not alter the color of the milk.

THE- NEWS INTERPRETED A Commentary On the More Important Events of the Week. By ELIZABETH EEDY France Arms the Border The Franco-Spanish frontier is quietly but swiftly being militarized this week in preparation for any sit- uation that may arise from Italy's re- fusal to withdraw her "volunteers" from participation In Spain's civil war. If Premier Mussolini continues to defy efforts to turn the civil war "back to the Spaniard^", France backed by Britain may take "really strong ac- tion", calling classes of her vast re- serve army to the colors as a defense gesture. The French Government thinks that as matters'now stand, the southern frontier is no longer secure. Several authorities on international relations are of the opinion that Mussolini is stalling, and will continue to stall until, as he thinks will happen, the Rightist army in Spain gains the ascendancy. . __.^ the country is to achieve equality with nations having greater resources at their disposal. Mussolini's plan Is to make Italy entirely free from depend- ence on other countries for supplies- ''without constituting an economic challenge to her neighbors", authorita- tive spokesmen state. Some sort of a trade war, however, is likely to result. Campaigning For Colonies With the publication of a new illus- trated weekly. 'Colony and Home," Germany is launching an intensive campaign of propaganda in a drive to regain "lost colonies." A series of mass meetings will be held, sponsored by the National Socialist (Nazi) party and the Ueich Colonial League which has 50,000 members In Berlin alone. The campaign serves to make the Ger- man people more and more conscious of their unfortunate lack of imperial possessions, and is developing the question Into a major issue. The world Is to know that Germany means busi- ness. To Equal Peak Year It is expected that before the end of 1037. Canada's tourist trade for the year will be equal in volume to the peak of 1929. Speakin- to the Mari- time Hoard of Trade. D. Leo Dolan, Chief of the Canadian Travel Bureau- declared that this year's total may reach the sum of $300,000,000. He urg- ed that fish and game resources be conserved in the interest of the tour- ist industry, as well as for the benefit of resident Canadians. Italy's Four- Year Plan In the late twenties, it was Russia with her F'ive-Year Plan. More re- cimtly came Germany with her scheme for intensified development of her re- sources. Last week Italy Instituted a Four-Year plan for economic inde- pendence, with the government declar- ing that the relative scarcity of raw materials, niineials and other products makes such a program necessary it "Unity Is Empire's Need" Right Hon. R. B. Bennett, Federar Conservative leader, warned last week that the British Bmpirc cannot hope to remain intact unless a greater amount of co-operation and a stronger sense of unity is developed. "Where there are hundreds of millions of peo- ple In the world clamoring for land and where you have one seventy-fifth of the world's people occupying one- seventh of the land, you have danger." he pointed out. "We must learn to co-' ordinate our efforts as a united peo-' pie." As it is now. Canada knows liti tie, for example, about Australia, and » 3 problems. Australia may know less" about us; but it is our business to get. to know each other. No More "War Risk" Policies Lloyd's of London last week stopped writing "war risk" policies, not only for China and Japan, but tor anywhere on earth. Joined by all other British* insurance firms of consequence, they, announced that 'the writing of war risk insurance on land has become in' fact little more than a gamble, which, plays no part in insurance, where rates are based on scientific applica-> tion of the law of averages as ascer- tained through experience." The British insurers believe that' they have made "a substairtial contrl-. bution to the cause of world peace," explaining that property owners un; able to take out war risk policies will he forced to start "working tor peace.'' Migration to Dominions Creation ot a corporation ' to ini-" tiate. consider and aid the carrying into effect ot schemes for all forms" ot useful activities Inside the British. timpire, migration and development", was urged at the Empire Migration* Conference, meeting^ in London, Eng- land. Relieving that the time is ripo for resumption of migration from the Old Country to the Dominions, tlje Conference asked that representatives of the Dominion Governments be Jn- vitod to consider beginning work on the scheme. It was suggested that migration be aided financially. over 2,200 rooms have introduced music for the first time," Mr. Fen- wick stated. A>ks Greater Co-operation He urged closed co-operation be- tween professional music teachers and school music departments, and it is likely that the 1938 council of the association will appoint a committee to confer with and assist the Depart- ment of Kducation in advancing chil- dren's musi- study in Ontario schools. li. K. Sandwell, editor of "Satur- day Night." told music teachers in a luncheon address that they were "the most important aspect of education in Ontario and the province's defense against the demoralizing influence of bad, vulgar, over-emotional music." To Appreciate Good Music Had music, he asserted, cannot be suppressed by law. It can only bo diminished and ovenome by music teachers who help children and adults to understand and api)icciatc good music. Harvey Hobb, the new president of the association, claimed that Ontario could do no better than to follow the lead of Cambridge University where "music has been placed on the same basis as any otner scholastic course and lecture fees are based on the .same ratio." Vital, Important Factor At present, he maintained, only 10 per cent, time allowance was al- located in schools for art and music, whereas much more time was devoted to typing, cooking, and machine shop work. This proportion, he felt, was not a balanced one because music in his opinion was uniiuestionably as important in a child's life as learning;- how lo use a typewriter or run a lathe. In the case of girls, he re- marked with a smile, there could be no (luestion that cooking and domes- tic science was of considerable im- portance. In a paper on ".Music in the Home," Prof. J. 1). Ketchum, of the Univer- sity of Toronto psychology depart- ment, told the convention that music teachers must educate parents and children that music is not to be con- sidered as a social accomplishment or "parlor trick" but as a vital, import- ant factor in the cultural life of the home. "American music of the popular type has conquered the world and radio has been in no small measure responsible for this.'' -- -^Friti Reiner.
