Germany has succeeded in raising great loans with which to carry on her war. The empire is being flood- ed with fiat money which was very well known during and after the. American war. It has been describ- ed as "money that has been consti- and it is hoped not in vain, to strengthen the army and navy, to instil into them a new hope and en- thusfasm, and to produce such mea- sures that the men at the front will realize that the people 'are behind them and will see that they do not lack for anything. So much was expected from the new Government, representing as it was supposed to do, the mind and heart-and purpose of the people. The provisional government, which has 'carried on affairs, amid many dis- eouragements, is now able to be- come aggressive in its policy, but it can only do this with the consecra- "~~ tion of army and navy and people ito the duties of the hour, They must be perfectly united, and re- store confidence and discipline if Russia is to be an expression of the new democracy that will be equal to the emergencies of the hour, Oleomargarine is made from fat, tuted by mere decree, and that has [other than that of milk and cream, nothing of value on which to rest as a Basis." Germany depends upon the capacity of the printing presses that are en. gaged in its production. When the Kaiser wants a few million marks-- and his seventh loan, just launched, represented 12,480,000,000, or in Danish and Swiss exchange, $1,. 500,000,000--he put the machinery in operation and the people were quite willing to exchange the money they had and for this worthless fiat paper. This stands out in the strongest contrast with the experiences in the O14 Land and in this. Lloyd-George put the issue clearly when, early in the war, and before he became pre- mier, he said the outcome of it de- pended on silver bullets. tion was not as plentiful then as it is now, nor were the facilities for producing it quite as great. But the little Welshman, the strongest man in Hurope, personally, knew that the greatest need of all was | money. He knew, too, that it was the more difficult of attainment in the nation. He depended, not as in Germany, upon the commands or demands of any regal authority, but upon popular conviction. The people had the wealth, plenty of it ~--~just how much no one knew, and no one knows yet-=and they would only surrender it even in exchange for bonds of value as they were con- vinced the empire required it. Hence the appeals that are being "made in Bagland, the United States and Canada, for the vast, untold, un. 'measured, and inestimable posses. sions of the people. 'At home they have given amazingly 'beyond all: computation. Britain has financed the war for the Allies, and is 'still doling this, and Britain will have the largest account against the enemy when the last shot has been fired. Meanwhile she 1s looking to Am. _eriea to do her share, now that she | has become a partner in the great- and no one that has any taste at all The quantity of it in for discernment will confuse or mis- | take the one for the other. DEMANDING THEIR RIGHTS, Does the admission of Hon.' Senator Robertson to a seat in the government, without portfolio, satisfy the labour party? Would if placate the labor element to say that they. may have a representative in office as parliamentary secretary to the minister of labor? Certainly not. Several members of the gov- ernment represent classes or special Interests, and labor, which has long been promised direct represéntation, will not stand for any further dis- appointment. « Mr. Pardee put the Ammuni- | 'should be remembered. question fairly when he said that labor, quite as much as agriculture, "1 want," said he, "the Union Government to appoint a minister of labor, to re- flect the wants and opinions of labor; not a doctor or a lawyer or a professional man, but a real worker who is in touch with the needs and necessities of the great industrial workshops of the nation." The Gov- ernment will 'be willing enough to put off a further consideration of the question until after the el not help the Union Government any. of the Borden Government are en- A Squeeze Coming.

Sir George Reid, former Dreier who is now in New York, states that power has turned the heads of the labor leaders, who are in control of the Common. wealth's Government. As an ex. | ample, he cites the fact that when- iever a post in the Government . be. comes: vacant, it is considered the proper thing. to appoint a trade unionist in preference to any other man, even if the former is 90 per cent. less efficient than the other candidates. Evidently office has tended to marrow Australian labor's vision to the extent of considering its own hobbies rather than the com- mon welfare. 'Woman Suffrage--Later On. London Advertiser. The new manifesto issued by Sir Robert Borden én behalf of his re. constructed cabinet gives a some. what definite promise of woman suf- frage. 'This has no doubt been the yesult of protests filed because of the omission of women from the next election.

It was plain justice that at least all women who had given war service at home should haves been placed on the vot- ers' list along with the female rela- tives of soldiers.. The -death-bed conversion does not remedy mat- ters. These women will never have an opportunity of registering their will while the war is. in progress, and that is the time when they should have the franchise, PAIN? - NOT A BIT} LIFT YOUR CORNS OR CALLUSES OFF No humbug!
