It is a matter of great satisfaction Tot those whose interests are bound up dn the "economic conditions throughout the world to note that, according to reports from Europe and various parts of the American continent, at last, after three years of struggle and strife;-conditions are beginning to show signs of stability, and of a genuine economic recovery. True, there is still a tong way to go before conditions are back at the normal state which they occupied Previous to the war, but the best in- dication that matters are improving is seen in the reports from the varj- ous countries regarding the decrease of unemployment. Ever since the armistice wag signed, and the armies of Europe, the United States and Canada were demobilized, there has been a wave of unemployment, owing {ing their own forces, and 'of perfect- The only result of the conference at London, so far, has been to preci- pitate another critical state of af- fairs, and to put still farther baci the hope of peace. It is become more and more evident that the Sinn Fein- ré have no intention of giving up their claim for an 'independent re- public, a claim which will never be granted to them. They have been using the truce and the period of negotiation as a'means of strengthen- ing Apeir military organization in Ireland. Under the guise of obsery- ing the peace, they have been making preparations to make a supreme of- fort ito establish their claims, by force, if need be. There is no longer any sympathy for the Sinn Feiners, outside of the ranks of their own party. In every circle in Great Britain there is noth- ing but support for the attitude of Lloyd George. As even Mr. Asquith has pointed out in the House of Commons, the policy of the govern- ment has the widest and most im- pressive sanction. But, while the hope for peace must nof for a mo- ment be abandoned, # is well to con- sider what the alternative would be, It is for the people of th South or Ireland to say whether the idea of a republic is so precious to them that they will fight for it, and should the present conference fail, then the next step might be the taking of a plebis- cive in which they will make their own decision. Even that alternative, however, may not bring a final solu- tion. There still remains to be tak- en into consideration the attitude of the British Parliament. Will it be necessary to hold an election dn Britain with Ireland as the issue? For such An appeal "here, can be no occasion unless there is in the House 'of Commons a serious ob- Jection to the government being em- powered to act against Ireland's reb- ols on a scale necessary for success, That there would be any disagree- ment sgems highly improbable, for to the sudden flood of labor on a market. . which was already {5 a crowded and stagnant condition. Matters have at times been very seri- ous, more so in Europe than in Can- @da, and have occupied the serious attention of statesmen in practically every country, While they still need much consideration, there is a strong indication that the corner has been turned, and that a brighter future ss in store, From Burope, especially, there are encouraging signs. In France there is little complaint of unemploymens:, The industries which were halted by the war and by the German invasion have again been re-established, and are working on a full time basis to supply the needs of the local demand, Very few unemployed men are now reported In Germany, where the workers are being forced to setitle down by the new burdens of taxation which are being imposed upon them in order to meet the indemnity pay- ments to the Allies. And in is slow, and 1s at times not very ap- Parent, official reports show tliat un- employment is steadily decreasing, and the National Employment Commission is doing 'a great service im absorbing those who are out of 'worl. In Eugland, unemployment decreased by twenty thousand dure ing the last week for which a, re. Port has been issued, and by fay a million since June, mot inclufl- ing the striking coal miners who have now returned to work. In Canada, there are signs that the un- employment tuation is Wot going to be quite so as was antiotpat- ed, and the employment bureaus ro- port a slow bit steady decrease in the number of men out of employ- ment.
