Mr. Thomas is thé "big business man' whom Mr.-| Lloyd George said the other fay he! was sending across the Atlantic "to! discuss the whole position of Amer. ican and Camadian contracts on the spot." We wish him all success in a task which the debate in the House of Lords on Wednesday of last week suggests will not be an easy one. He has to reckon with the partial monopoly given by the British Government to Messrs. J. P, Morgan, as regards munition orders in the United States upon a com- mission of two per cent. and all ex- expenses, while in Canada the con. trol of contracts rests- with the Ca- nadian Minister of Militia acting through the Shel] Committee of which General Bertram is the chajr- man, Lord Curzon, speaking for the Government, said that Mr. Thomas is "to see whether any changes or improvements in organi- zation can be effected" in either country. Lord Devonport _and oth- ers made it clear that many United States and Canadian firms eapable | of carrying on the large contracts | | are now shut out. That should {and must be remedied, and we hope | Mr. Thomas will pdy due heed to | i v { the suggestion of Lord Joicy that, | seeing Canada's partnership in the war, Canadian factories should re- ceive preferential] treatment wher- ever that is consistent with the main end in view, namely, the earliest pos sible supply of all the shells that Sir John French needs This is a general cleaning-up of all Wash Goods, as the season closes 1st August, and next week we will have to get ready for new fall goods that arrive during the next four or five weeks, The prices named mean a serious loss to us, but we are forced to make room. --. 830 Yds.
