TORONTO â€"In addition to its educational _ work through _ the press, â€" magazines. billboards _ and leaflets, _ the Health League of Canada will this autumn launch a series of 13 radio dramas. designed to stir Canadians into action toâ€" ward _ a _ more agressive â€" public health program The _radio plays, which have been â€" produced on transcriptions under the direction of the Canadâ€" tan radio playright. Rai Purdy. all deal â€" with dramatic episodes in the lives of heroes of medicine They tell of the battle against disâ€" ease, and how persistent studies and tests finally achieved success in the fight against sickness The plays include: "The Life of Lowis _ Pasteur," _ "Conquest _ of Diphtheria".

Thousands of patriots have been flung _ into overcrowded prisons upon the flimsiest pretexts. Hunâ€" dreds are suffering, in the notoriâ€" ous German concentration camps. The liberty of the press and of asâ€" sociation _ has â€" been suppressed. Broadcasting has been taken over by the Nazis. All political parties, with the exeption of the numericâ€" Health League Will But there are things worse than merciless looting, the dread of inâ€" flation, the shortage of food, clothâ€" ing and fucl. The political and cultural tyranny of the Nazi overâ€" lords strtikes at the very root of the people‘s character; the love of their liberties won in centuryâ€" long struggles. The despised agâ€" ents of the Gestapo lurk in every us cafe Such is the economic condition to which our people have been condemned. All classes are sufferâ€" ing and complaining alike. Indusâ€" trialists have been reduced to mere tools in the hands of the Naâ€" zis; farmers work hard and earn little; almost 150,000 laborers have been blackmailed into toiling in German factories and shipyards. Almost everything is rationed, but the rations are so small that in some cases laborers feel too weak to continue work after four o‘clock in the afternoon. As a result the National Debt is increasing at a rate ten times greater than that reached in the Great War. The treasury is selling astronomical amounts of governâ€" ment paper and there is plenty of paper money in circulation despite huge semiâ€"forced loans. But goods are scarce, prices are rising in spite of attempts at control, and the standard of living has rapidly declined. Agriculture suffers from the seâ€" vere shortage of labor, fuel and fertilizers; dairyâ€"farmers see their best cows slaughtered to feed the occupying army, or exported to the Third Reich. The Germans desâ€" cended upon the fertile Lowlands like a cloud of locusts; shops have been emptied by the huge purâ€" chases made by German soldiers and officials; trainloads of agriâ€" cultural produce have disappeared into the German maw. A large arâ€" my of occupation has to be fed, clothed and housed. The famous ports, once throbâ€" bing with life, appear dead. The wheels of industry have stopped, and only those factories which fit into the Nazi. war machine can surâ€" vive. Those fishing trawlers and coastal vessels which could not escape to England lie idle, or have to work for the Nazis, endangerâ€" ing the lives of our seamen in the service of the foe. By Prof. P. S.

BATTLING THE DEADLY DOPE RACKET A _ heartâ€"touching, profoundly disquicting picture of a mindâ€"andâ€" body destroying traffic in drugs, carried on by the devil‘s own peddlers, will be presented by Dr. Arthur LaRoe, president of The American Narcotic Defense Assoâ€" ciation, in The American Weekly with The Detroit Sunday Times, starting with the September 21 issue. Be sure to get The Detroit Sunday Times this week and every week. So the next time you have to ride in a bus that is not quite new, remeinber we must win the war. Remember too that our boys who are riding in tanks, gun carriers and other army vehicles are not enjoying much in the way of moâ€" dern luxury during their travels. _ After all, the Company has demâ€" onstrated very convincingly, over a period of several years, its faith in public appreciation of the highâ€" est possible standard ‘of service by supplying modern and luxurious equipment for its routes. Now that a war emergency is upon us Mr. Foster believes that the public will endorse the Company‘s action in coâ€"operating with the Government coâ€"operating with the Governâ€" ment‘s plans for conserving exâ€" change and will gladly accept any slight â€" temporary _ inconvenience involved. Pressed Into Service To meet the emergency, a large number of buses which are due for retirement have been reconditionâ€" ed and pressed into service. Mr. Foster says that every effort is made to place the most modern buses on the regularly scheduled trips, but the demands for service frequently require the addition or substitution of older equipment. A. H. Foster, viceâ€"president of Gray Coach Lines, says that the modern highâ€"powered | buses are made only in the U.S.A. and that the Company has postponed furâ€" ther buying of new equipment to conserve United States funds for the Canadian Government‘s purâ€" chases of essential war materials. The next time you board a bus for Toronto or Waterloo try not to be too critical if you have to traâ€" vel on an oldâ€"timer a bit the worse for wear. It‘s just another case of "guns or butter". Like everyone else, the bus peoâ€" ple are having their troubles and for some months their biggest headache has been a shortage of buses. Due to warâ€"time prosperity, regular traffic is increasing daily and buses have also to be found for special military service. Call Out Reserves On Financial Front 7.

The idea TOWARDS FEDERATION Hitler‘s armies are now in the Ukraine where their operations ag; pear to be successful. Itâ€"is to feared that Hitler may suon occupy the whole ‘of the Ukraine. But even if that happens the Ukrainian people will not remain passive, particularly at a time when Hitler will want to seize the farmer‘s grain by force for the purpose of fceding his imperialistic armies. Notwithstanding _ his cuntinuous‘ war because there is not a single victories Hitler will finally lose the: European _ nation, including the Italians, that would have friendly fecelings towards him. No power will be able to prevent these naâ€" tions from revolting at a proper time. And that time is approachâ€" ing. 4 "Kanadiysky Furmgr" (Canadian Fapmer), Ukrainian Weekly, Winâ€" nipeg. 1 ‘ NATIONS IN REVOLT treat all enslaved peoples in acâ€" cordance with the above point, then â€" Ukrainian â€" independence â€" is assured. _ Wilson‘s point of the selfâ€"deterâ€" minution of peoples is included in this declaration, although in difâ€" ferent phrascology. In the new declaration it is called the right of all peoples to choose a form of government under which they preâ€" fer to live. This is important for Ukrainians because the right of national existence was conceded to them after the last World War but was forcibly taken away from them by the Russians and Poles. If the United States and Great Britain after they have defeated Hitler will ence impels us to believe that it is not Iikerelhc same thing will oceur again. ’Ie,hc world has paid and is paying so much in blood, in dead and in national calamities for havâ€" ing ignored the right of selfâ€"deterâ€" mination of peoples that it is hard to believe that it would now again pass this right unnoticed, continuâ€" ing on the timeâ€"honored path of diplomatic deception.
