There has been a costly sacrifice of life and money to find out that the eraft was not up to a proper standard. OUR EXAMPLE, When Secretary Weeks calls atten- tion te the fact that the cost of the army of this country has been cut in two, the number reduced to 150,000 and steps to bring about large savings put into effect it i to be realized that it is an admirable response to the demands of the country. The call for a curtall- ment of such expenditures as go With the maintenance of a large army has been needed. And the same course is being followed in the navy depart- ment. Retrenchment was ealled - for, congress ordered it, though in some in- stances reluctantly, and we are sailing under the standard of economy. . The aquick manner in which the changes have been put into effect means that even greater savings are being ef- fected. The army has been cut to the designated number months ahead of the time Itmit designated and In keeping with other departments the war and navy heads are devoting their efforts to keeping their expenditures well within the avpropriations and not spending all that has been voted stmply because it is avaflable. The good effects of sueh work are bound to have & bearing upon the com- ing disarmament conference. We have not done away with our army and we have mot stopped the construction of naval vessels. We have mot put into ef- fect a poliey of disarmament such as is to be expected as the' refult of the understanding among nations because we could not afford to disregard our safety. We are still bullding ships of war and must continue to do so but we have shown that it is the policy of the country mot to maintain our military and naval machines at as great or greater a size in time of peace as dur- ing a perlod of war. We have indicated as far as it.is ad- visable by our acts that we! are desir: ous of disarmament. to have its influence during the com- ing conferencel We have seen the de- sirability of placing a check upod new armament plang for.our own good. The economic reason’ has been fully appre- ciated and It is to be hoped that the representatives of the various nations will_be impressed by the desfrability of | having an understanding which Wil make it pessible to bring about such an_economic benefit for the whole world. UTILIZE WHAT WE HAVE. While the proposition of developing the St. Lawrence river by dredging op- erationg and canal construction so as to ‘make it poseible for ocean stgam- ships to reach lake ports has gotten no farther than the endorsement stage, there seems to' be reason for feeling that efen its advoeacy has accomplish- ed some good, and this cannot fail to be appreciated evem by the opponents of the project. Those opposing the idea are doing €0 on the ground that it would take much business away from the transpor- tafion lines and ports in the eastern part of ‘this country, but the advocacy has served to call attention more acute- 1y to the fact that there are means of water transportation between the lake ports and New York city of which full advantage is not belng taken. Governor Miller of New York recent- ly addressed the Buffalo chamber of commerce in opposition to the St. Law- rence canalization scheme and termed the proposition impracticable. At that time he made the statement that in his opinion the money that would be used in connection with such an undertak- ing ought to be devoted to the better- ment of our waterways and terminals, and while he didn't ask special favors for the harbor of New York or seek business for the barge canal that can be handled otherwise he made the most of the opportumity to call attentlon to the existence of that aid to transporta- tion, and it is Interesting to note that a line of five large steel barges, cost- ing a quarter of a milllon apiece and capable of carrying about 1800 tons of grain are eperating hetween lake ports and New York faster than the fast- est freight train schedules between such points, The middle west is favoring the St. Lawrence project because of the im- proved facflitles that are offered but as a matter of fact it doesn’t appear that is ag yet making full use of the facilities that exist since there is no in- timation that the barge canal is offered more business than it can handle. The idea of making the most of what ex- ists and devoting our funds to the bet- terment of prevalling conditions is bound to make a strong appeal. EDITORIAL NOTES.

However great the measure of truth in this Jjs, have you ever noticed that the majority of Japanese headsare short from the ears back? They are. It's what gives them that curiously round look in comparison with the average Caucasian skull = Has it |never struck you alsa that a certain type of German head (the typleal Prus- sian) is built in much the same fashion? And the same sweeping Statement is |often made about the Germans as about the Japanese. So far as the Teutons are concerned, however accuracy com- pels the statement that it is emly in certain sections of Germany that the short skull is a predominant type. But what are the other Indicatiens eof the short head? One is a restricted ability to understand the -motives and emotions of othér people. It yesults in a certain % to a lack of eympathy, not exactly. the same as that lack of sympathy which s due to overlooking |the viewpoint of others, but due to in- ability rather than lack of desire. Short headed people rarely “succeed in work wherein they have to meet and handle people. They have for instance, little natural aptitude for salesmanship. As a trained nurse a short-headed wo- man should succeed par@eularly welf s0 far as the actual material and sci- entific phases of her work are concerned but she would mot be particularly apt at making the pafient comfortable in mind and spirit.
