BACK TO GOD’S COUNTRY T IS stated that thousands of young American * farmers who were lured to Canada by offers of cheap land, on easy terms, are returning to the f States, because, upon refusal to enlist in the British y army, they were socially ostracized.

Sometimes, diplomacy seems to consist wholly of finding things that make a puzzle over which the finder can weep or sweat. Our national offi- cials’ war policy may be all right, but what a thun- dering heap of straw they have to thresh out in getting at a little grain! PRETTY LATE CCORDING to experts, the channels at Mare Island and New York navy yards are so poor that keels for the new dreadnaughts cannot be laid. No news in this. The Star showed up this condition, eight years ago, with pictures and re- liable testimony to prove it. But, congress put Uncle Sam’s money into widening Goose Creek and: enlarging Pork Barrel City docks. SPAIN PUT an embargo on exportation of arms, and, first thing she knows, Britain is going to declare her unneutral.
