Certainly they are not letting up on any advantage they have ob- tained. WHAT IT IS COSTING THE BRIT- ISH. The financial ability of the natiens engaged in war to carry on the strug- gle is one of the big problems which they face. It takes money as well as men to keep on fighting, yet from the statements which are made it would appear that some of them comsider that they can furnish both indefinitely. Mpost of the nations of Europe were carrying huge debts before the war opened but they will be as nothing compared to what can be expected after the terms of peace are settled upbn, and that outlook enly indicates what can be expected in the way of taxation for a long term of years to come. At the present time Great Britain is paying out daily $27,000,000 and that is but what several of the big countries are matching but there is no thought being given to the debt which is resulting as a grounds for the declaration of peace. Rather is there the boast made that the credit of Great PBritain is by no means im- paired even though it has been bear- Ing no small part of the financial bur- den of some of its allles. But how rapidly Great Britain has been spending menmey is indicated by the statement that by next March it will have a national debt of $18,000,- 000,060, over six times the national debt of this country after the Civi war, and that, while being the cost to SHOWS 2130, 7, 8:40 Mat. 10c; Eve. 10c-20c Today AUDITORIU EMMA THOMPSEN In The End of The World A STUPENDOUS SPECTACULAR PRODUCTION * powers carry heavy responsibilities.

Great as have been the surgical achievements in the course of the pres- ent war, there has been #8 yet no sin- gle discovery that has rivaled Dr. Al- exis Carrel's method of the treatment of septic wounds as the most notable lon to surgical science, accord- ing to a senior surgeon of the Ameri- can Ambulance Hospital at Neuilly, near Paris, who has just returned to this country. “The French hospitals are slowly adopting the Carrel meth- 0d” he said, “and in the American Ambulance Hospital we have been us- ing it for several months with gra. ffig results which seem to show that Dr, Carrel has proved his thesis. “The reduction of septic wound treatment to an almost mathematical basis is a feature of the Carrel method that suggests the fanciful thought of the possibility that the day may come when a surgeon’s work will in some respects be like that of a train dis- patcher. Having brought to him from day to day the microscopic coun} of the geyms in a given wound, the sur- geon may perhaps figure with precis ness the day on which the wound will be in ehape to close completly.

The surgeon, almost witl cut looking at the wound, can dete: mine, when the count gets down to a xstiven numbet. that it is safe to close A matter of no little importance is ‘handled in the news which comes from England to the effect that, in the na- tionalizing of its shipping, Great Brit- ain plans to arm all ships and that under the plan of Lloyd George the big liners are to dock on this side of the ocean at Halifax instead of New York. Their cargoes will have to be transported in smaller vessels at mno slight expense but that is the only eolution of the present situation. Great Britain has been losing so many vessels from submarine attacks, ‘which it is promised will be increased instead of shdwing any let up for the Germans understand what effect it is having upon the allies, that it con- siders it cannot longer permit them to go without means of defense and probably offense for most of them now carry the smaller guns for the pur- pose of defending themselves In case of attack, and 1t is fully aware of the fact that vessels armed in the man- ner which it plans will not be per- mitted to make use of our harbors. The scheme of having them ply be- tween British ports is therefore go- ing to be resorted to. ‘This means of course that this country must rely upon its own ves- sels for means of communication be- tween this country and Europe and this emphasizes again the need of a much larger merchant marine here, the four large liners which the American line is to build being needed even now. It 1s another instance where we have been placing too much dependence upon othérs, even as we have been for dyestuffs, for coaling stations to our own possessions and for many other things which we ought to pro- duce or develop for ourselves, and which we would with the proper en- st TIME TO PRACTICE ECONOMY. There is no doubt but what there are plenty of ways in which this gov- ernment might spend all the money that could be poured into its treasury through taxes, bond issues and tariffs, if it went ahead without regard to the matter of expense and gave no thought whatever to economy. There are demands which are made at every sessien of the congress which have to be turned down because the funds are not available to meet the cost. There are other things which are more im- portant although the present deficit of $180,000,000 shows that 1tm have been large expenditures e when they might just as well, as far as necessity was concerned, have been delayed until such a time as the fi- nances of the government were in bet- ter shape. Yet despite the fact that there is a substantial deficit, where only a few years ago there was a surplus, and the additional fact that by another year the hole in the treasury is ex- pected to be increased to over a quer- ter of a billion, there are new recom- mendations being constantly made such as the plea for the construction of water and sewer systems in the national parks. These parks are mag- nificent beauty spots, which are stead- lly being developed and appreciated, but the idea of making large outlays on them for such a purpose at this time is as out of place as the idea of construeting costly public buildings in n Ambulance Hospital is t.hs best single thing which America can do for France,” he said. ‘“The Lospital has been at all timeg since 1ts establishment two years ago one of the ‘best hospitals in the world; it enjovs the confidence of the French Sanitary Service to such a degree that it ordin- arily receives only the most difficult cases. The most severe shell wounds are constantly encountered. There are scores of young American surgeons who, from time to time serving at tl:e hospital, have become familiar with these phases of surgery. They may rarely have occasion to use this knowl- edge in their ordinary civilian prac- tice at home, but should the United States be at war within the next gen- eration it will find that many of its surgeons in civillan practice are ac- quainted with every sort of wound now krown in warfare. At the hospital, further, there has been constant co- operation between the surgeons and dentists. An ordinary operation is that of grafting bone cut from the tibia or skin-bone into the lower jaw. I have seen young soldiers so frightfuily wounded in the face that had they been my sons I should have almost preferred they should have died, but it is not for the surgeons to let the spark of life be extinguished throagh neglect of surgical science. “The appreciation, gratitude and en- tire simplicity of the wounded Franch soldler is something that ‘gets one’ absolutely. I have never seen the slightest resemblance to anything that OTHER VIEW POINTS The New York papers have car- ried, during the last week, interest- ing accounts of a clerk employed by a large New York firm for the mod- est salary of $25 a week, but wno had been able to steal approximately $100,000 from the company within the short period of two years. The discovery of the embezzlement sug- gests the exploits of - the hero of a detective story, inasmuch as it ap- peared coincident with the discovery by some official of the firm that this clerk was wearing $10 shirts. This led the official to investigate further and, when he found that the young clerk's living expenses were $5,000 2 month, and that his salary continued at $25 a week he felt that something suspicious was connected with that young man’s career. Thus it was that he discovered that the clerk had tagken $100,000 from the firm within two years. Efficlency methods must be applied to the limit by this corporation if it is enabled to find a leak of this magnitude within the short space of two years.

These devices have been originated and im- proved upon largely by the younger members of our surgical staff. When a young surgeon comes to us from America for service at the hospital he is assigned to a ward with a request that he improve the apparatus—and it is rarely that he fails to do so. It been wonderful for the older men 8o long ago that a similar request was made. There was a disposition in this country to participate therein but it was frowned upon at Washing- ton and this country failed to con- tinue the policy of doMar diplomacy. Important changes have taken place since then in China. ‘Whether the open door there stands less ajar than it did will in time be demonstrated, but it is evident that Japan has and 1s exerting an influence in the new re- public which is by no means small.
