America may be a young nation, but old enough to understand how foolish it is to'mix in European affairs, and right now is the time to mind our own business.

When the war began the British army was not very large. Age groups up to 28 years will be completely mobilized by this summer and supplies «are being delivered in sufficient quantity to keep up with the expanding army. Leslie Burgin, Minister of Supply, is | spending nearly $8,000, 000 a day for) arms, equipment, supplies and necessary taw materials. Ordnance factories are be- | ing trebled. Production of army vehicles has been multiplied fifteen times and 100,- | 000 armored vehicles will be in service by | the end of the year. Along with this prodigious expansion | of the army the British are slowly increas- | ing their air force, building merchant ships and naval vessels.
