country's largest taxpayer-the Canadian Pacific. has been imperiled by subjection to competition from the tax-free. government backed Canadian National. The Royal commission stated that unless some action is taken promptly to stop the losses of the Canadian National System the very stability of the nations finances will be threatened. with serious consequences to the people of Canada.
 In reading this. it should be remembered that the Canadian National is no ordinary experiment in government ownership. It has doubtless been successful to a much greater degree than projects of the kind usually are. What it indicates is that when politics steps in and feels the stimulus of an apparently bottomless public purse, efficiency of the kind private management achieves, steps out. The foregoing information ap- peared in Railroad Data of August 25.

Building Boom Gets Started

Figures show that the long awaited resi- dential construction boom is beginning to make itself felt. During the first half of August construction of this type, as reported to F. w. Dodge Corporation, totaled $lO.- 876,000 as against $8,8l2,300 for the same period last year - gain of g per cent. This marked the fourth consecutive month in which advances were made over the com parable months in 1852.
 For a number of years there has been definite home shortage in America - for at least three of those years building was virt- ually at a standstill and existing structures were subjected to more than usual deprecia- ton, because of inattention to needed repairs. This wasn't due to lack of desire. It was due principally to lack of funds in thousands of families, and to psychology of fear that prevented others, having ample funds; from spending The first class is returning to its jobs now, and regular pay envelopes are brought home on Saturday nights. The see- ond is discovering that rising prices will shortly make it impossible to obtain new buildings or to improve old ones at bargain prices. And both classes are going into the market for better living quarters. Still another beneficial influence is the Home Owners Loan Corporation, which makes pos sibe home financing that could not other- wise be obtained.
 Yes, there's every indication that we're on the verge of major building revival that will be particularly striking in the resi- dental field All who can should aid the relief program by taking advantage of low prices for land and material.

Government Railroads In Canada

Government ownership of industry. even when managed as efficiently as may be rea- sonably expected. is productive of little save deficits for the taxpayers to make up. The most recent example of this is the Canadian railroad industry. Since January l. 1923. all government-owned lines have been oper- ated under single system. During most of that time they were under the control of the late Sir Henry Thornton. an executive of proven competence and honesty. The Canadian government. according to a report of Royal inquiry commission. has invested some Sl,200. .000.0 900 in its railroads. From this it has received practically no return. It has guaranteed bonds and securities of gov ernment-owned lines to the amount of $l,2S0. 100000. bringing its total liability to S2. .4S0. 100000. According to the Royal commission. the disciplinary check upon ex- esssive expenditures. inherent in private en- tsrprises has not been present in the case of the public road. Money has been voted and spent lavishly.
 Furthermore. the credit and very exist enes of Csnada's great private rsilfoad-ths

It is noteworthy fact that many ob- servers fear that one of the greatest barriers to the success of the administration reeov- cry program is taxation.
 Thousands of employers want to raise wages and employ more men and women They want to do their part in starting the march of progress again. But they can't get money out of the air - and eontsantly increasing percentage of their rtvenue IS usurped by the tax collector. It would be a bitter irony if the efforts of one branch of government to restore prosperity is disrupted by another branch of government. which takes from the citizen and the business the money with which prosperity can be made. That rigid governmental economy-federaL state, county and local - is essential to our future, is fact that looms large in the minds of millions of citizens.

The Filipino independence issue evident 1y is going to be. with us again this winter. Both houses of the Filipino legislature have turned down the Hawes- Cutting act. and the whole problem thus is tossed back in the lap of Congress. The Filipinos objected to the Hawes-C Cutting act chiefly because it seemed to promise the form of independence without the substance. What they want is a straightout independence measure, with no strings attached. If we are going to let them go. it would seem that quick and complete severenee would be the logical way to do it. It is more than possible that this is just the kind of measure the coming Con- gress will pass. If SO. the country at last

Dot Leetle Cherman Band

Another welcome sign of progress - though some might call it reversion--is the reappearanee of street bands. The little old German band SO familiar to Americans a generation ago is now becoming familiar sight again. In some cases even the worn and faded uniforms look familiar to old timers, though for the most part there is now no pretense of uniform except the old visored caps.
 These bands are found, strangely enough, in the big cities rather than the smaller communities. They seem to flourish in New York, particularly. That supposedly heartless metropolis regards them with af- fectionate tolerance. They are once more. a correspondent says, part of the big towns life.
 , Mostly they are not professional muslei- ans. They do not belong to unions. They are volunteer groups who wander into quiet residential sections. usually along toward evening, and play "Ach du Lieber Angus tine and other old favortes. Apartment dwellers toss them coins wrapped in paper. They are helping to soften a hard-boled town" says correspondent. We may soon have them everywhere. They fill need that the jazz bands don't supply. Jazz anyway, is going out, and simple, old fashioned music may be coming in again.

Don't Economize With Safety

The kind of economy" that endangers a eity's safety is false indeed. That is the message in brief article by L. s. Gregory. assistant secretary Fireman's Fund Group. He is in a position to know. During the past few years great many communities have gone in for economy where it IS most dangerous - by lessening appropria- tions for the fire department.
 Mir Gregory cites case in large South ern city, where the firemen. in fighting a blaze in manufacturing plant. could do almost nothing because the hose was SO old that it could not stand normal water pres- sure. They were able, through a fortu- itous circumstance. to borrow new hose from a private concern. Otherwise conflagra- ton might have resulted. In another city. cuts in fire department appropriations neees- stated laying up the fire boat. When a. water-front fire broke out the city was con- fronted by the ludierous spectacle of hand full of firemen in row boat attempting to pull line out from shore to control the fire!
 It is probable that most cities and towns have economized principally in the matter of fire apparatus. Old engines are allowed to keep on in service when they are out moded and inefficient. or are in need ot sepair. New engines which are vitally seeded are hot purchased. A few thousand lollars is ''saved'' - and millions of dollars md multitude of lives are endangered. There's no worse place to cut costs than the fire department. And there's no better time 10 improve the department than right now. The Federal government is making exeep- tionally favorable loans to cities. 30 per cent of which is to be an outright gift. for needed public works. No public work" is more valuable to every citizen than an Al fire department.

A Familiar Story
 Tn Modern Dress

In ..No Castle in Spain," William McFee has taken a melodrama Of the good old romantic-adventur school, dolled 1t up in modern dress, and sent 1t forth to tell an old fashioned story in the accents of up-to-date New York.
 He ,. presents us with girl, Yyonne, who Is as up-to-the-min- ute as the Blue Eagle. She's an advertising writer in New York, intelligent and self-reliant; and in the back of her head she nurses a vision of castle in Spain which she hopes to turn into a reality.
 So when she bumps into a man from South America, one Don Frederico, who lives on a tremcn- dous feudal estate in Colombia and possesses millions of pesos, she i'm. mediately falls for him. He mar ries her and takes her home with him--and she discovers that she has stepped outof the Twentieth Century into the Middle Ages.
 Naturally, little of this goes A long way, and Yvonne wants to get away. A New York friend a sort of rowing salesman for one of those wicked Wall street banks goes to South America and un- dertakes to rescue her.
 By dint of much involved con- niving, he manages to smuggle her out to freedom. In the end, they come gaily back home together, while Don Frederico conveniently jumps of a steamer and makes .Yvonne awidow.
 And all this. in its essence, is just the good old George Barr Nc Cutcheorl story brought up to date. Instead of fighting Don Frederick, our salesman.hero gets a concession from him for his bank.

Prohibition Repeal

Repeal of the eighteenth amendment, ar irving with speed few people in America thought possible, does not simply mark the end of great experiment. It also marks the beginning of a new one, and 1t IS going to be very easy for us to make just as many mistakes with the new as we did with the old For this reason the Rockefeller plan for liquor control is an extremely valuable thing. Whether or not we accept the solu- tions it offers for the various phases of the liouor problem, it at least serves to remind us that simply repeating the prohibition law is only half of the job We have tried one method of meeting the liquor issue and we have found that 1t didn't work. Now we must try some other method; and the sus- gestions in the Rockefeller plan can be very useful in helping us to make up our minds
 The best point, perhaps, is the one which the Rockefeller plan emphasizes most strongly that it would be wise to make a clear distinction between the kind of con- trol that is needed for beer and wine and the kind that is needed for hard liquor. It is suggested, in fact, that the sale of beer be almost unrestricted. and that very liberal rules De set up 10 govern tIle Sdis VI whe' VII the other hand very stringent regulations for the sale of whiskey and other distilled louors are recommended. Let beer in other words, be sold by almost anyobdy who cares to get license. Let wine be served freely with meals in hotels. restaurants. and cafes Continue the sale of hard liquor to few carefully chosen retailers, for consumption Tn fto buver'c own home.
 Needless to say no such plan as this. IS going to satisfy everybody. The prohibi. tionist will find it too liberal; the man who looks back fondly to the old days will find it too strict But it does serve as an excellent point of departure for discussions of the liquor control problem. It recognizes the perfectly obvious fact that beer and wine peesent one kind of problem. while distilled l;cuors present another. Probably we shall have to spend long time experimenting be- fore we find truly satisfactory control plan. The important thing is that we get busy now studying what kind of plan looks most sensible. The Rockefeller report can help us very greatly in that study.

Washington.-F'ill of the va cancy on the federal trade com mission by selection of Professor James M. Landis Is another typ ical New Deaw appointment. Landis is a sort of minor brain truster," a protege of Felix Frank furter at Harvard, and thus makes one more of the bright young col legians who have been lending their brains to the, Roosevelt ad- ministration.
 Landis had big hand in draw ing the Truth in Securities" bill, and nothing could be more appro-
 priate than to put him in the place where he must help enforce 1t. Ever since the bills passage, he has been organizing the section of the federal trade commission which will supervise security is- sues.
 This appointment seems to serve notice that despite the succession of squawks from New York on the | bill, the president Is determined to give 1t a real try under sympathetic administration.
 Landis, in his mid-thirties, plays tennis, is young and athletic-look- ing.

ERADICATING OF HoOKwoRM INFESTATION IN MAN

Under favorable conditions the eggs of the
 common round worm Qumbricoid) may live in
 the soil for several years. The eggs and larvae
 of hookworm will live in the soil for at least "a year. The eggs or larvae of both worms get
 into the soil only through the unceanly habits
 of man, for these worms reach their adult
 stage and lay eggs only in the intestine, and pass through the larval stage of their existence only in the outer world.
 The hookworm larvae are killed by complete drying of the upper layer of soil or by freez- ing. That accounts for the rare occurrence of hookworm disease in Texas, Arizona, New Mexico, California; and also explains why 1t does not occur in the north where the soil freezes every winter.
 health authorities have found that the most ef-
 fective way to eradicate hookworm disease is by teaching the rural inhabitants the sanitary dis posal of feces. Mere burial is not effective for hookworm larvae will migrate up through four feet of soil, though they do not migrate later
 habitants not to go barefoot, for it is by pene- tration of the skin between the toes by the lar- vac c'ground itch") that infection occurs. Much experience has shown that the best worm medicine for freeing the intestine from | hookworms is a combination of oil of chenopo- dium (American wormseed) and carbon tetra- | chlorid. Either of these alone is a good rem- | edy against hookworms common ground worms but combined they are more effective
 and less likely to produce any poisonous effects. The patient should have a mild purgative the afternoon previous to treatment light supper that evening, and no food next morning. At a. m. the patient receives dose of carbon te- trachlorid in a hard gelatin capsule, At 8 a.
 
 m. a dose of the active principle of oil of che nopodium (called ascaridol) in capsule At | 9 a. m. a large dose of Epson salts, never cas- tor oil or other oil. If the salts fail to purge the patient within an hour, another dose of salts should then be given. Such a treatment | removes 90 to 95 per cent of the hookworns with minimum of danger to the patient. For q child from to 10 years of age the | usual doses of the medicines are 10 drops of carbon tetrachlord seven drops of ascaridol. tablespoonful of Epson salts in half glassful | of water. For an adult double the dose of everything.
 Persons who indulge in alcoholic beverages
 should not take carbon tetrachlorid unless un- | der medical care.
 | The poisonous effect of chenopodium or it's active principle ascaridol are dizziness, ring | ing in the ears. tingling of the fingers, head ache.
 The timely dose of salts, to sweep out the worms and the worm medicine, is an import | ant part of the treatment, and the worm med | icine should not be given unless the patient is prepared to take the full dose of salts an hour afterward.
