Familiarity Breeds
Tractor Accidents
Farm tractors are now so common
on Canadian farms that they are often
overlooked as a chief cause of farm
accidents. The old adage “Familiarity
Breeds Contempt” is only too often
true,
Despite the safety devices and im
provements manufacturers are con
stantly incorporating in their mach
ines, their construction and the ter
rain they have to cover, make them
vulnerable to careless driving.
Here is a list of practices which J
may cause a tractor to upset; they i
are all caused by the human element: ■
1. Turning corners at high speeds.
2. Brakes not balanced with the re
sult that the brake on one side oper
ates before the other, throwing the
tractor to one side.
3. Driving the tractor too fast over
rough ground so that the driver, in
—-——....."’——*——■T'*"11"*"” 1 '■.■..—
his efforts to hang on, loses control.
4. Trying to take short cuts over
steep banks and ditches.’
5. Making “Jack-rabbit” starts when
the tractor is pulling a heavy load,
causing the tractor to go over back
ward^
6. Hitching loads to some part of
the tractor other than the draw-bar.
This makes the possibility of the trac
tor overturning backward very much
greater.
People can be killed or injured when
the following practices are permitted:
1. Hooking up implements by back
ing up the tractor while standing on
the ground.
2. Riding on a tractor draw-bar or
fenders.
3. Allowing others to ride on the
tractor.
4. Allowing children to operate trac
tors.
5. Allowing children to ride on or
play around tractors.

Halifax, March 23 — In an inter-1
view here today Wm. L. Keele, inter
nationally famous trichologist and
Director of the Keele Hair Experts
said, “There are 18 different scalp
disorders that cause most men and
women to lose hair. Using common
sense, a person must realize no one
tonic or so-called cure-all could cor
rect all the disorders,” he explained.
The Trichologist makes no charge
for this examination 'and no appoint-
After starting treatment, the person
makes regular reports to the Keele
firm in Halifax to check the progress
of the home treatment.
GUARANTEED
“The Keele firm, recognizing that
most people are skeptical of claims
that hair can be grown on balding
heads, offer a guarantee,” Keele said.
Once .a person avails himself -of the
Keele treatment his skepticism im
mediately disappears. To insure this,
we offer this guarantee,

RjEPORT from
^PARLIAMENT HILL *
‘ By W. Marvin Howe, M. P,
Wellington-Huron
f
I would like to deal with the quest-
i ion of unemployment on which a
major debate has been taking place,
i The fact has been proven that it is a
question of the utmost importance as
most recent figures will show that in
. this month of March, the peak figure
could pass the 600,000 total. Expressed
• as a higher percentage of total popu
lation this means there is a higher
rate of unemployment in Canada than
there is in the United States? Even
more startling—there are more people
unemployed in Canada than there are
in Britain which has over three times
the population we have here.
When the most recent figures of un
employment were published, at the
earliest opportunity, Mrs. Ellen Fair
clough, Conservative Member for
Hamilton West and head of our com
mittee which deals with all matters of
labour and related problems, moved a
motion censuring the Government for
having allowed this situation, impos
ing such dire hardships on large num
bers of Canadian families, to develop,
and for doing nothing about it. She
suggested that certain plans for bring
ing the employment and economic
situation in Canada back into balance
be introduced into parliament without
delay.
In the course of her remarks Mrs.
Fairclough suggested that the Gov
ernment is too prone to discredit the
sufferings of those concerned and fol
lows a policy of apology and excuse
and generally takes refuge in a statis
tical argument as to whether the
figures mean actually what they say.
Mrs. Fairclough’s actual words on
this phase of the subject were so tell
ing and so full of common sense and
human understanding that I would
like to read a few of them to you
The fact that so many people are out
of work, and the fact that the Gov
ernment devotes so much of its at
tention to arguing what is the actual
number, are, she said, both causes for
grave concern to everyone. She went
on as follows:
“But regardless of the number of
people who are out of work, regard
less of whether the number is 362,000
or 569,000, the question we have to
ask ourselves is whether or not Hon.
Members and the people of Canada
are going to consider that a person is
merely a statistic. Is the individual to
be merely a statistic in the estimation
of those people who are governing
this country? Each of those 562,000
persons reported by the Department
of Labour and each of those reported
by the Dominion Bureau of Statistics
is a human being. Many of them have
persons dependent upon them for sup
port. It is not only a matter of buoy
ancy or lack of buoyancy of the Can
adian economy; it is a matter of
frightened men and women with cold
bodies and hungry stomachs. It is a
matter of fear which grips the hearts
of working people who are probably
employed themselves but see their
neighbours idle and who ask; when is
it going to happen to me? Certainly
they say: we expect Canada to go
ahead. Certain it is that Canada will
thrive, but in the meantime, what do
we eat?”
As indicated in one of my earlier
reports, the Government did increase
and extend the amount of unemploy-,
ment insurance benefits, which was,
no doubt, of great assistance to many
people. There have been many solu
tions offered in an attempt to solve
this very important question, many
reasons given for its yearly increase.
Principal among the solutions is an
extensive program of public works.
The principal causes of the labour
situation I feel is the fact that we are
living in a high cost economy, a fact
that has been reiterated many times
in the House of Commons, and have
considered raises in a way superior
to other countries of the world who
have not been able to enjoy the lux
uries which have become so common
place with us.
But what has been the result? This
high cost economy has placed us in
such an unfavourable trading position
that our export trade is falling very
rapidly. We have lived up to our
Geneva Trade Agreements and find
that the products of many of our
factories cannot compete with foreign
goods imported into our markets.
The question is how to get our eco
nomy down as it must come down if
we are to regain our position as one
of the great trading nations in the
world. Is our economic situation going
to deteriorate from the ground up as
was the case in 1929 when unemploy
ment had been on the increase for
many years and reduced farmers’
prices forced them out of retail mar
kets for even essentials.
I think if governments and leaders
of industry would signify their will
ingness to take wage reductions and
this act be followed right through
governmental agencies with conse
quent tax and cost of living reduc
tions, labour would be willing to follow
suit. Then we would find that our
products would be in a position to
compete favourably in the markets of
the world, once again our economy
would be buoyant and men and
women would be happy to know that
their future was secure.

LAKE ERIE FISH
EQUALS RECORD
A 310-pound sturgeon, six feet long,
was caught in Lake Erie last week,
Bill Berry, part-time commercial
fisherman, took it on a steel night
line with minnow bait.' He landed it
after a three-hour struggle.
Ontario Lands and Forests Depart
ments officials said in Toronto the
fish equalled in weight a seven-foot-
six-inch sturgeon caught by Frank
LaPointe in Lake Superior’s Batcha-
wana Bay near Sault Ste Marie in
1922. LaPointe’s fish holds the Great
Lakes record for sturgeon.
BACKACHE
Backache « often caused by lazy kidney
action. When kidneys get out of order,
excess acids and wastes remain in the
system. Then backache, disturbed rest

How do you choose a Bank?
Probably because you find it convenient and like
the people there. Both The Bank of Toronto and
rhe Dominion Bank grew in Canada through
many years of close, personal service to their
customers in all walks of the nation’s life.
That familiar, friendly service will continue to be
a dominant feature of The Toronto-Dominion
Bank. The experience of the men and women who
contributed so much to the progress of the individual
institutions is now combined to serve you better.
You'll like the Toronto-Dominion people—and you'll like
the convenience of over 450 branches across Canada,
