I STRI AS ONE OF RESOURCES AND (ON. FIDENCE THEY GIVE. This Is. the View of Dean Cappon oi Queen's In An Article He Writes In the Queen's Quarterly. The present war will no doubt be iargely a struggle of resources and the confidence they give The Ger- mans no doubt began with the ad- , vantage of superior preparation, ana though they are now really on the defensive, are still holding their lines with stubborn determination and vu our But there can hardly be » doubt that the resources of the allies are considerably superior in every respect for a prolonged struggle. The German government will manage to keep a good front to the last possible moment; it is accustomed to controi and regulate the life of its peoples even in details, with a firm and effi- cient hand. There will be no shod- dy clothing or rotten-soled zhoes sent to the German soldiers, and ev- ery-measure, every precaution will be taken to relieve and distribute the strain of the situation.and to deal with financial embarrassment, Gov- ernment orders have already fixed prices, rents, dividends, wages wher- ever the government's hand reach. Bdt the government cannot create resources, and there is a dan- gerously artificial element in the ¢on- trol system which is apt in the end to bring down the strong with- the weak together in a sudden collapse. A word on'the German societies in the United Slates It is very nat- ural that the German-American ceolo- nies in the large American cities #hould form themselves into societ- ies for the aid of sufferers in Ger- many from the war A great Vater- landshilfe society Is being organized in Newark which is to be a perman- ent establishment to deal with the needs not only of the present mo- ment but to look after the widowse and orphans that the war will leave upprovided for in Germany. 'There could not be a better road for: the German-American dollars to go than that. In the Vereins, Kriegerbunds and such GermansAmerican societies there is algo great activity in the con- troversial line. The righteousness of Germany' cauge and the wickedness of Russian or English designs are the theme of all orators. What per- haps is not so natural oh the part of supposed "American citizens" ts that they make it very hot for any native- barn American clergyman or publie- iet who has dared to express an opin- fon in favour of the allies. We want an "honest neutrality," writes the president of one of those assoc- jations, rather comically, apropos of a Brooklyn pastor who had been ut- tering unfavorable opinions on Ger- man militarism, and he challenges Tw can | the part of German-American news-!

Decreased passenger traffic and 'less treight to handle means a reduction in their income, while wages and the cost of waterial have remained at the high levels which they attained dur.
