That the nationalist party in Turkey would not approve of the action of the Turkish government in accepting the treaty of peace was a foregons conclu- sion, The pationalists in fact en- deavored by their action to prevent the approval and showed by their establish- ment of & new government that they were opposed to anything that was done in Constantineple. They hoped to be able to get contrel at the capital so would neither obey the orders issued therefrom nor approve the methods of government. As in setting up a new government-they are now as ready to de- fy the allies as they were the sultan. But while they are announcing that they. will oppose the terms .to the bitter end, how much progress are they going. 0 be able to make in such an effort? For some time they have been trying to show what their bitter end opposition means in connection wWith their struggle with the Greeks. Given a free hand by the allies to deal with the situation in Asia Minor as well as in European Turkey, the Greeks have been able not only to drive the nationalists back from Smyrna and to capture the city of Brussa, but they have defeated them in every contest in Asia Miper and now they have taken the important, battle-scarred city of Adrianople in European Turkey. Possibly the nationalists feel that they are strong enough to make the defiant answer that they do. Possibly they are banking upen help from the soviet gov- ernment of Russia, but certainly from their numbers, their resources and the{ sort of opposition they have been giving to the Greeks' it is an optimistic view they take when they give the impression that they canm prevent the allies from carrying out the treaty terms. There is no use denying the fact that they can cause much trouble in various ways for the allies but it is folly for them to think that they ean obstruct the treaty. They have a right to differ with the view taken at *Constantinople but 1t eannot help fbe-| ing believed that the latter took the wiser course. MAKING LAKEPORTS SEAPORTS. For a eonsiderable time efforts have been put forth in behalf of bettering the| transportation facilities of the northern states. The idea is to develop the ca- nal and river systems so that the lake-| ports can virtually become seaports, and| ehip direct by way of the St. Lawrence river. At the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence tide- water congress at Detroit this plan has been given the enthusiastic support of| Herbert C. Hoover who sees a big oppor- tunity for bettering the transportation facilities in connection with the distri- bution of facilities. He recognizes thej fact that it would eost money but he does not rate it as exorbitant, but such as it would be it would mean much in in- creased presperity to more than a dozen| states would be an economical move for the farmer and would result in decreas- ing the cost of food. What those whose scheme is endorsed by Mr. Hoover would like to do is to make it possible for goods to be < directly too and from the lake ports in| large vessels such as those which ply; the lakes now. This would save much handling and decrease expense. It would likewise mean that goods for exn would not have to go through Atlantic| coast ports but direct relieving traffic on the railroads and the Erie canal by mak- ing it possible to utilize the St. Law-| rence. What is moved that way now| would be only a fly speck to what is pro- Posed, but it is to be realized that this| means sending our goods through Can-| ada and over a route closed by ice dur- ing a number of months. 1 The project is one that deserves to be thoroughly studied. The possible disad- vantages as well as the recognized ad-| vantages need to be ferreted out considered. Such an outlay as will be| required is not ome that should be gone| into with closed eves. | The enthusiastic| support given to the plan by Mr. Hoover| g is helpful and it can be expected that it will have its good influence. One motice-| able fact is that it has the endorsement! of the business men of Canada as well as of the United States. EDITORIAL NOTES. Jaffa, Palestine, says the consular re- ports, wants coal.

The rajlway rates advisory committee has now received exact instructions as to the revenue which has to be found by increased rates and fares. The defi- ciency from -April 1, 1920, amounts to 1o less than £54,500,000 a vear, and in one way or another this amount has to be made good. The deficiency is due to @ variety of ,causes now all-too-familiar. The first is the rise in wages to the rail- waymen themselves! the second is ‘the rise in wages to the miners, increasing the cost of coal; a third is the rise. in wages to werkers in various subsidiary industries, which has affected the cost of materials. The people’ who will have to meet the bill will be, firstly, the whole traveling public, and, secondly, the whole body of consumers, to whom will be handed on the increase in the rates for transporting goods, if these rates should be increased. At present it seems prob- able that the burden will have to be borne by an increase in the ordinary fares, in season tickets, in railway ac- commodation at the doeks, and in work- men's fares. The last are mot likely to escape and it rests with the advisory committee to determine the amount. A Castle for the Prince—If the city council acquire Cardiff Castle and_offer it as a residence for the Prince of Wales, he will have a very beautiful and state- Iy Welsh home. Parts of the castle are very ancient, dating from Roman days; some of it is Norman, and much belongs to later feudal times. But the residential part has been modernized by successive holders of the Bute marquisate. Near East Barred.—Despite passport and other difficulties of transit, thous- ands are journeying to France and Flan- ders this summer to visit the military cemeteries. Work on many of these Gar- dens of Sleep has been completed, and the troops are being withdrawn. Those who have friends and relatives buried in Sy- ria, Gallipoli, Palestine,, or indeed, in any part of the Near East, will be unable to visit the graves this year. Not only are most of the cemeteries still in their war-time condition, but the countries of the east are not yet amenable to tourist traffi A Reindeer Reserve.—None too soon, the Canadian government have decided to preserve some of the remaining herds of caribou, the barren-ground reindeer of the Arctic. Baffinland has been chosen for ‘the reservation, where the caribou will be able to roam unrestricted and to multiply. Less than 30 vears ago there were vast npumbers of caribou in North- but by the cupidity of the trader and the ignorance of the Eskime |they were destroyed. as the buffalo was destroyed as the buffalo was destroved n the western states of America.

Strads, Unsaleable at £4.—Though£500 must now be considered' a bargain price for a genuine Strad., Stradivarius himself would have been amazed had he been of- fered a tenth of that sum for a specimen of his handiwork. It has been estimated that in his lifetime the Cremonia master made about 1,200 instruments, and Fetis, who went carefully into the matter with the help of some of Stradivarius account books, places the average price at which they were sold at four louis of gold, tha equivalent of £3 10s. in English money. Shortly after the famous maker's death a number of violins made by him were sent to London and offered for sale at £4 each. But not a single purchaser was forthcoming, and they were eventually all returned to Cremona as unsaleable! —London Chronicle. Perry’s Flagship. The United States brig Niagara, that famous unit of Perry’s fleet to which his flag was transferred on the foundering of the flagship Lawrence, is to have a per- manent home in Erie, Pa. After nearly a century in a watery grave in Misery bay, where it was sunk along with the other members of the fleet on the signing of the international treaty between Great Brit- ain and the United States, the old Niag- ara was raised in connection with the centennial celebration of Commodore Per- victory in 1913.
