ORGANIZED, WORK FOR BLIND PEOPLE In this article, which concludes the present series, we simply wish to point out for special attention the timin features of work for the blind in, Canada and the campaign that is being waged to prevent blindness. The Canadian National Institute for the Blind stands ready to 'investigate each case of blindness reported and if treatment cannot restore vision, to render' the following services; 1. To provide teaching in the home. 2. To provide books and magazines printed in embossed type. 3. To sell raw materials required for home industries at cost. 4. To purchase for cash those home products that cannot be sold localltt 6. To secure and pass on at whole- sale cost, Braille writing appliances, typewriters specially adapted, Braille Watches, games of various kinds, paper for use with typewriter ,er Braille writing machines, tools, etc. 6. To give vocational advice, etc., to individuals desiring such and to secure other professional advice or opinions as desired. 7. To employ in industrial depart- inents for men and women, those indi- viduals who appear desirous and cap- able of takingadvantage of such sup- ervised factory work. 8. To interest sighted business men and other people in efforts and pro- ducts of blind individuals in your community and to render every other assistance that may be helpful. How far has the Institute pr gress- ed in carrying out the above program? In six years it has registered a total number of 5,300 individuals across Canada, of whom 4,800 are at the moment eligible for Institute ser - from the blind standpoint. viceIt has investigated hundreds of other cases but has not registered where the vision of the individual was auf- &lent to permit continuing at ordi- nary occupation. In such cases, how- ever, prevention of blindness treat- ment or information as to care of re- maining vision was provided. It has employed in broom shops at the pres- ent time, ninety blind men and in the whitewear shop for women, twenty-three girls and women, with approximately twenty-two men em- ployed in basketry shops. This brings the total of men and women actually employed: in factories to 135. Besides this, over six hundred men and wo- men are connected the various salesroom departmen home work- ers. Over eight hu blind peo- ple in Canada are registered with our Publishing Library and Publis Department as readers of our ture. Over forty are resident .i es or resi- dences operated Or fined by the Institute. - What has. the Inst done in its campaign against ss loss of vision? lantern 1. It has through slide lec- tures, newspaper pt y and the is as sister ndred litara mainta fhem itute needle tblicit circulation df, pamphlet literature, endeavored` to educate and arouse the public and authorities concerned to the great menace of carelessness and neglect. 2. It Is at the present time endeav- oring to secure the treatment of all Infants' eyes at birth. 3. It is educating' mothers to the need of attention to eye trouble in • young children. 4. It "assisted in cartying out ini- tial surveys in schools leading to the. establishment of conservation of vi- sion classes for all children with less than one-third normal vision in the better 'eye and is` pushing this Cam- paign throughout the whole countiy with a view to having the children with defective sight in all schools, whether urbanor rural, properly taken care of. 5,' It is endeavoring to educate men and women in industry t0 the need for care and used of all safety ap- pliances provided. 6. It is endeavoring to suppress the; tendency of adults to wear cheap or improperly fitted . glasses which may, causo'further 'attain or complete loss of remaining vision. 7. When cases are found where the individual cannot afford to secure treatment or purchase the necessary proper glasses, this Instituto stands CONTROL AND FINANCE. The Institute operates under Fed- eral charter and is controlled by a Council ` composed of thirty three prominent individuals representing all parts of Canada: Of this number, eleven, are either blinded soldiers or blind civilians, and the remainder sighted business men and interested women, devoting a great deal of time and attention to this work. Besides this Council, we have local boards of directors for the Maritime Division, Central 'Western Division, and the British Columbia Branch. Our funds are derived from two main sources. First, Government grants, and second, public contribu- tions, bequests and Institute member- dhip fees. Approximately fifty per cent. of our support comes from the Federal and various Provincial Gov- ernments interested, while the re- mainer is subscribed by interested members of the general public. HOW YOU CAN ASSIST. 1. Buy products made by the hands of a blind Canadian. 2. If a campaign for funds in aid of our work is held in your district, subscribe. 8. Apply for membership. 4. Remember the Canadian Nation- al Institute for the Blind in your will. 5. Assist blind people in your own district if opportunity occurs, In giving this assistance, please remem- ber that blind people are often sensi- tive and even prefer to go without needed help rather than be the sub- jects of excess sympathetic attention. In short, we are prepared' to do everything humanly possible to eradi- cate needless blindness. In closing, may I request a favor? Iyou If have. followed this series of articles and now feel that as a result of the information conveyed, you would like to take more interest ins ;your blind fellow citizens, would you kindly write to E. A. Baker, General Secretary, Canadian National Insti- tute for the Blind, Pearson Hall, To- ronto. I would very much appreciate your conunents and will be very glad to do everything possible for cases that you may report. DR.

Ottawa, May 4. -Reports from Washington to' the effect that the high tariff of 42, cents a bushel on wheat, has effectually stopped impor- tations from Canada are only a par- tial statement of the situation. It may be true that the ordinary import figures from Canada were but a mere trickle during April, but they do not include imports for milling in bond for export. United States figures show that from July lst to April 26th there had been imported from Canada 24,808,- 000 -bushels of wheat, of which 13,- 853,195 3,553,195 were for consumption and 10,955,191 bushels were imported into bonded mills grinding for export. The important fact is that the latter's importations are growing all the time, and that new mills to take care of this class ofbusiness aro being added. :Approximately 11,000,000 bushels may not seem to be a very large quan- tity of wheat, but it was 1,800,000 bushels more than went out to the United States for consumption there during the seven months • ending March. That there is quite a lot of wheat booked for export tothe United States is 'evident from the feet that the re- ports from Fort William say that the bookings for American mills total 14,- 000,000 bushels. So if Canadian wheat is not going across the line through one means it is going through another.

Must Obtain Permit Card. A despatch from Niagara Falls, Ont., says;-Unlees the customs di- vision of the Federal Government takes some action in regard to the ;Deal situation, Canadian motorists entering the United States will ex- perience considerable delay, when the new ruling on traffic going into the United States from Canada goes into effect. Representative Clarence Mac- Gregor of Buffalo has promised. the Niagara Falls, N.Y., Chamber of Commerce that he will work for a special ruling on the situation here. Under the new regulation every motorist entering the United. States at the local port will be compelled to secure a permit card, issued by the American Customs. Residents of nearby points will be able to secure special one-year permits. The`United States Customs officials say that much congestion of traffic will result from the new ruling. In- stead of being able to handle S00 to 400 cars an hour on Sundays and holidays, the customs men say they will be able to handle only about SO cars an hour. It is not unusual for 10,000 automobiles to cross the bridges here on a Sundayor holiday during the summer season. The Un- ited States Customs officials want the Government to make a special ruling allowing Canadian motorists to leave their automobile registration cards at the bridge offices as American motor- ists do on entering Canada.

Berlin, May .4. -First returns from to -day's elections 'indicate that, though, as expected) the' German Nee tiohalist party, standing at the ex - trema . Right, registered ' substan'tial gains, the old',coalitioi% from which the • present Government was formed -the Berman People's party, the Centrum, and the Democratic. party = will form the next Government, probably in conjunction with the Socialists. This is the, group pledged .to carry- ing out the Dawes plan. It was sup- posed that the German Nationalist party would, lose wavily to the "Volkiaghe bloc," .the s party fortped froth its ranks, and the moat violently reactionary of all the German :parties, but, judging from the early returns, this has not been the case. The Centrum party, to which Chancellor Marx belongs, seems to have held its own, judging from re- turns front Berlin and other big .centres, Natural Resources Bulletin.. The Natural Resources Intelligence Service of the Departneent. of the In- terior at n-terior,at Ottawa says;' The forested areas of Canada stand second only to agricultural lands enee ong the basic natural resources of this country, and industries -using forest products have been surpassed by agriculture alone- in mothering commercial growth. Their importance as a factor in the rise of Canadian commerce is evidenced by the increase of the Dominion's exports of wood, wood products and paper from $42,- 000,000 in 1908 to nearly $268,000,000 in 192>? The work of ascertaining the actual extent of Canada's commercial forests is a large and exceedingly difficult undertaking. While progress has been made, the inventory is still far from complete. Itis estimated, how- ever, ow •ever, that approximately 600,000,000 acres of the total land area in the Dominion is covered by forest growth. Of this 150,000,000 acres may be con- sidered as bearing saw timber of merchantable size, amounting to ap. proximately 550,000,000 M board feet The remainder of the area carries young stands, or timber suitable for pulpwood, fuel, etc.' The total pulp- wood resources are estimated to be about 1,300,000,000 cords of which 600,000,000 cords is of saw timber size and is included in the estimate of saw timber. Tho tot:!: stand of tim- ber of all kinds, reduced to board measure, is about 1,000,000,000 M. . feet, Of this, over 80 per cent. is coniferous. Early Demand for Seats at National Exhibition. A despatch from Toronto says: -- A record for early sales of Exhibi- tion grand stand seats was establish ed on Thursday when the representa- tive of an east end Masonic lodge applied to Treasurer F, F.'Bretnall for 800 tickets for the night of Tues- day, September 4. On that occasion the lodge is putting on a ceremonial and as part of the entertainment the visitors from outside the city will be given a trip to the Exhibition and an evening on the grand stand. Managing Director John G. Kent has alsoreceived the first entry 'fox the 1924 Exhibition. It came from Mrs. A. Edwards, 824 McRoberts Ave., and was for the women's sea tion. Japan to Float in U.S. $150,000,000 Loan A despatch from Washington says: -Official advices received on Thursday indicate that the Japanese Government probably will seek to float another large loan in this coun- try early next year. Itis expected thisloan will be for 5160,000,000, as was the external loan floated in the United States early this. year. There has been much criticism in Japan and the Orient generally of the. terns of the 5150,000,000 loan floated in this country. A loan for approxi- mately $100,000,000 floated in Great' Britain under precisely the same' con, ditions, for somereason, has not been criticized to anything like the sante extent. Round -World Flight Con- tinued Despite Loss of Leader A despatch from Washington says'; -Search for the lost' commander of the round -the -world airplane flight will be continued in Alaskan waters, but. the expedition with which the War Department is intent upon mak- ing history will continue.
