Another! instance: The coal strike in England increased the fishing industry in Canada. For the strike made coal scare and costly. Hence cooking came high. But carined fish require no cooking. Hence 200,000 cases of canned fish have been ehipped from British Columbia to the British Isles so far this year. - 1.20 500 HISTORIANS You who write the tales of “barbarous days” when cheering crowds gathered in the old Roman amphitheaters to watch some unfortunate be torn to pieces by lions, may be interested in this story from Chicago: “Sheriff Charlés Peters has thwarted plans to make.a ‘pink tea’ affair out of the hanging of Car! Wanderer, a murderer. The sheriff stated he had|* turned down many prominent sotiety women and other Chicagoans who had asked for invitations!” TOO GOOD Switzerland; touched only lightly by the rav- ages of war, emerged with a complacent chuckle and with money unimpaired. All ready for busi- ness. .But the one-time world mecca for tourists now is getting the go-by. Summer tourists are going to Italian and French resorts. Bven Swiss in CUPID, Vs. $ | M. J.

HOOVERIAING, | As one of the evidences that they are making jgreat sacrifices to meet the allies ‘Yeparation| iclaims against them, the Germans point with pride’ 'to the fact that their consumption of. champagne: lis now but 7,000, 000 bottles annually. ; Before the war they drank’ 13,000,000 bottles a year. | They add that their sacrificés are even greater 00! than these figures show, as at least 2,000,000 of | ‘the 7,000,000 bottles are used by the allied com-} missions, and armies of occupation. | | TOO MUCH MAIL Richard Spillane, writing in Commerce aid Fi-| nance, calls attention to the great printing waste, | not only. in the government sérvice but in’ private, | businéss as well. “He estimates that millions of dollars could be saved to American busingss concértis and indirect-| ly to the consumers if so-called mailing. lists were | revised and kept up to date. His statement that it is doubtful if one ; piece! cut of ten of mail list literature is readl by the! person receiving it, is probably’ an under rather; than overstatement of the case. RESPONSIBILITY | The responsibility for caring for our, disabied| soldiers now passes from Congress to the executive branch of the’ administration. abled veterans do not now get what is coming to them, we shall know exactly where to fix the re- sponsibility. There can be no more passing the buck between, the executive and legislative branches of the gov- ernment; which has heen one of the favorite Washington sports during the past two and a half years.

They suffer the wounds of war. above all others and they above all others will. experience the relief that must come with a cast- ing aside of the great machinery of force and de- struction.” BACK THE LEGION ‘insurmountable wall.’ The House ways and meatis ,Congregs, has finally done its duty by the sick and disabled ex-service men. It has passed the Swéet bill which creates new machinery, coordi- nates. the old and. appropriates the money neces- saty for the functioning of the various measures of relief. It is estimated that it will cost close to half a billion dollars a year to carry out the provisions |u of this measure. This is a huge suin, of fioney—about half the total cost of running the government before the war. It would seem to be sufficient to do everything |t that can be done to meet the peoples’ obligation to their disabled veterans. But whether it is or not is going to depend en- tirely upon how honestly and intelligently the money is spent. LEGION’S DUTY The Sweet bill has the approval of the Amefican Legion and its enactment into jaw is due in large measure to the pressure of the Legion, backed by a virtually unanimous public sentiment. From now on the Legion can indulge in no more useful activity than to co-operate with the govern- mheht in the administration of this great trust. Jt should act in the dual capacity of fepresent- ing both the disabled veterans, who are to receive the benefits, and the taxpayers, whose money, is being spent. The cost of administration must be held to the minimum, to the end that the largest possiblé pro- portion of the total expenditure be conserved for direct benefits to the beneficiaries. It will bé an outrage and a scandal if the usual wasteful political methods are adopted in execut- ing this law. “A dalfar’ gs werth of relief for every dollar spent,” should be the Legion’s watchword, And thé public can be depended upon to back; up the Legign. 4a the limit, in whatever action is necessary to translate its watchword into reality. Iv we are to get our share of world trade it is least as efficierit as that of, competing nations. lg CLOSED 10 ALL APPEAL For four years an obnoxious system of taxation has béth hectoring business arid destroying in-| dustry. Between us and. national prosperity the} load of taxation, starting at the top and ed and, swelled to the. bottom, has stood. li committee, looked to and appealed to for seemingly has closed the door to argument. The minds of its leaders are made’ up and pears to be a cut-and-dried progrim is- ress.

This is particularly trui ion that it emphasized et Was under consideration.
