How Conference Helped Mackenzie King Meet Growing Threct Of New opposins Party

trying Co gain foothold in 0uehec0 and there has been come recent evi- dence that the Bloc populairO has been attempting to make deal with the COT, in which the Bloc Popu- iaire would give the cor national support in return for an agreement that the COT would keep hands of internal affairs in the province of quebec.
 Provincial elections in Quebec had been planned for this year, but when the rise of the CCF in ontario be- came apparent, the plans were de- layed. pending Q clarification of the situation and the observance of more straws in the wind. The long-range hope of the Cath ollc people of Quehec is that in time they can make oil Canada Catholic and even French. They base their hopes on this development on two factors first, the higher birthrate of the French Catholics, and second, a provision of the old North Ameri- can Act of 1867 under which was effected the confederation Of oue- bee, the Maritime provinces and the rest of Canada into the dominion.
 One provision of this union, given as Q concession to Quebec, was that this province should always have 06 seats in the Canadian Parliament House of Commons, the apportlon- ment for the other provinces being determined every ten years. Thus, in the 1o40 census eapportionment, though Quebec's delegation re- mained at 66, other western prov- inces lost representation because of Quebec's relatively greater birthrate and increase in population.
 By 1870, say the Quebec statiSti- clans, Quebec will have control of the parliament if nature has its way and is allowed to determine the sit- uation.
 CANADA's NEW DEAL
 Rise of the Cooperative Common wealth Federation offers the first real upset to this normal course of events. The attractlveness of the cor program to Canadians 10 that one may be c Catholic and still sub- scribe to the cor programs of soc- ialization of power, mining, timber, paper, railroad and manufacturing interests which have had such a large voice in shaping the conserv" ative policies that have traditionally governed Canadian affairs.
 There is no taint of communism in the CCF. The communists, in fact, fight the CCF. Communists are in Canada, the party membership in the dominion probably being greater than 1t is in the United States. But up to six months ago. the commies in Canada were pretty roughly handled, and communist party activities were generally banned.
 The CCF is in reality New Deal program for Canada. It diners from ] the U, s. New Deal in that south of the border the Democratic admin istration brought forth its New Deal after the party was elected to oface. In Canada the CCF party Is made up of political amateurs who have their program reAdy, but have yet to win in national elections.
 Because of this political inexper- fence. the threat of CCF is dis. counted by many observers. But one plank in the CCF platform which has great mass appeal iS proposal to break Canada's wartime wage controls. And any practical politician will admit that a party slogan of more pay for the working man can rally many vote.

Selected Poem
GOLDEN THE DUNES

GOLDEN THE DUNES
 CBy Dorothy Quick in the New York Tames) Here, where the sun glints golden on the dune And grasses bend in homage to the see, The surf rehearses . mysterious rune Old ag the language of antiquity, M night, the moon tEansmutas that glitterlng coin To silver, works enchanfment where the sky And water indistingugshably join And constsllatlons wheel ssFenely by. This magic is repeated, day by day; And from that ordered sequence we can learn Something lmmutable as wind and spray, Always the wave win break, the fun tide tuFni The beaeh-plum flower. the gray gull dip hls wing Here. out of change, is wrought ehangeles thing.

 There was Q very important hush-huSh discussion inside the Democratic National Committee regarding the recent meeting Of Young Demoratic leaders in Chi cago. Real fact was that the President and Frank Walker didn't want the Young DemS to meet, felt that political meeting of this kind was not in keeping with the war, also that the Young Dems would be sure to run up against the unanswered but all- important question: "Will FDR run for Q Fourth Term?" . Not all the United Mine Workers agree with John L. Lewis in his hatred for the CIO. The other day one Miners local sent the CIO check for $ll00 for ti:e War Relief Committee. Another Min.

SIGNIFICANT FUNCTIONS OF
 B COMPLEX

Two functions of B complex main- ly the thiamin (B1) but partly the other entities of the complex, should interest a large portion of the entire population of the coun- try. First, 1t maintains the "tone" of involuntary muscle throughout the body. That includes the muscle coat of the stomach and intestine, the muscle coat of the arteries, and the muscle wall of the heart. The importance of this is further dis cussed in "CVD" and '"The Consti- patton Habit"for either booklet send ten cents and stamped envelope bearing your address. Do not send a clipping of this item. The other function of B complex should in- terest every relative of a diabetic: vttamin B complex maintains nor- nal carbohydrate metabolism (uti:- ization of starches and sugars) in the body. Because of its effect on carbohydrate metabolism I have called vitamin B poor mans inc sulin."
 Daily doses of 10 lng. of Bi oraly for four weeks produced increased utilization Of carbohydrates in six out Of eleven patients with dia. betes. according to Vorhaus (Jour. A.M.A.. Nov. i6. 1851. Many dia- beteS patients find that they have to cut down the daily dose Of inc sulin a few weeks after they adept the routine practice of supplement- ing the restricted diet with an op- tlmnl daily ration Of B complex. opelmal ration means three oF four times as much as may Do required dally by Q healthy person.

and ship 1t to seaboard. It was sent from Pacific coast ports to VIadivostOk, then across the Si. herian wastes to Russia, where its location is Q military secret. So far as can be learned here, the factory is not yet in opera tion.
 If the Russian can make 1t run 1t will be used to produce 10000 heavy-duty tires day. The U. s. production of 10000 was in terms of passenger car tires.
 Tn addition to the tire factory, we have now shipped 100000 tires to Russia, and another 500,000 are being prepared flor shipment.
 Officials of the Rubber Admin. istratOr's Office do not want to measure tires against human lives, or to suggest that our Sac- rlfice of tires can be compared to Russia's heroic sacrifices on the battle front. But they do feel the public in both countries should have the facts so they will know what we are up against when 1t comes to supply ing synthetic tires to the home market next year.
 NOTE: Jeffers has just gotten WIPE approval for @ vast program of building new tire plants, and converting others which have been making different rubber articles. Though these facilities will not be ready until the latter part of next year, Jeffers still expects to produce the 30,000,000 tires his schedule calls for. Incidentally, the tire-plant program is being

YOUR HEALTH. by Dr. William Brady

Again in my own opinion-but based on clinical studies of good authorities-a fair amount of vita min B complex should be combined with every dose of tincture of digi- tails taken by a person with heart disease. In fact believe the B. complex is a better heart tonic than the digitalis is.
 Finally call attention to the fact that, even if the vitamin B complex does no good in such circumstances, it certainly can do no harm.

Lieutenant-G Governor John Lee Smith of Texas and Harold L. Ickes have been having words. And what words! The Texas official resents the cut in gas ra- tions in the midwest. Evidently it is all right to reduce the gas allotment in the East but not in midwest and western territory. At any rate both the above mentioned have penned some neat phraS- ing over the matter.
