the FIRST load Of aerial express in his

Browne. Milwaukee distributor for

advantages of aerial express and who

The Governments Program.

In his address yesterday the president made
it clear that the government will do everything
in its power to reduce the cost of living and
that it will lose no time in making a beginning
Active and immediate cooperation of congress
and Of every citizen is asked and expected.
Congress will not help by quibbling over
form and precedent and by buck passing. The
people will not help by interrupdng produc-
ton or distribution. The less commodities
there are the less there will be to divide and
an abundant supply viii not suffice if move
ment from producer to consumer is held up.
At the most the government can only re-
move obstacles. With adequate support it can
stop boarding, conserve supplies and elimi-
nate unwarranted price imitation. 1t can dis
courage the taking Of unfair advantage and
give everybody an equal chance. 1t cannot
BIZ law or administrative act relieve a general
shortage in commodities nor can it restore the
power OF the dollar to pre-war
basis The public must accept this phase of
The situation and make the best Of iC while
economic laws are bringing about gradual
relr5ustment.
Cute incidentally the president brought out
the point that delay in ratification Of the treaty
of peace is having serious effect. There can
be no confidence in industry he said, mo cal
cuIable basis of credits, no confident buying
or systematic selling, no certain prospect of
employment. no moral restoration Of business,
no hopeful attempt at reconstruction or the
proper reassembIing OF the dislocated elements
Of enterprise until peace has been established
and so far as may be. guaranteed.
"There can be no settled conditions here or
elsewhere until the treaty of peace is out Of
the way and the work Of liquidating the war
has become the chief concern Of our govern
ment and the other governments of the world.
There can be no peace prices so long as our
whole financial and economic system is on
war basis"
Senators who have been spending most of
their time trying to block the administration
and bring it into dsfavor naturally do not rel
ish this reference. They have lost no time
entering a disclaimer. But twist and squirm
and equivocate as they may they cannot escape
the cold logic of the presidents words. In the
vernacular he has hung something on them"
that will stick like the brand of a red hot iron.
And he did it as calmly, deliberately and in,
exorably as the clock points the time of day.

Lord Finlay, who is to visit Win
nipeg this month to speak at the
annual meeting of the Canadian bar
association, is one of the eminent
leaders of the English bench and
bar to whom many high honors
have fallen. He is a Scotchman, II
years old, the son of an Edinburgh
doctor. His education was received
at the famous university of the
Scottish capital. Medicine was his
first choice of a profession, but aft
er graduation he turned to the law,
and was called to the bar in 1867. A
large practice became his; he was
made a queens counsel, and a
bencher of the Middle Temple in
London, and finally, when Lord
Salisbury again became premier in
1895, Mr.. Finlay, as he then was, re-
ceived appointment as solicitor
general and was honored with
knighthood. In 1900 he exchanged
the solicitor generals seals for
those of the attorney general, which
office he filled for six years.

From the inquiries 1 receive

cares to unfold. Ready to go any

to take a chance with any remedy
or treatment purporting to be
good for tuberculosis. Ready to
risk life itself on the fiimsiest
kind OF advice. It seems that every
new victim of tuberculosis must
travel for himself the unhappy
road travelled by so many other
uRsophisticated subjectsi of the
disease before him. Is there
something about the disease that
makes the victim unduly reckless
or adventurous? II would seem
so.
Long experience has demon
strated that there is no remedy
which can be termed beneficial for
tuberculosis, regardless of individ-
ual circumstances Experience has
shown that the best chance OF Ill

table physician and refuses to be

1t is hard to understand why the

that individual the wisdom and
knowledge and experience to
Judge what treatment would be
advisable under the particular cir
cumstances. Yet a surprisingly
large share of the victims of the
disease seem to feel quite compe-
tent to assume that great respon-
sibility. One learns of patients

remedy without consulting their
medical attendants at all. And
