There will be. the serious , matter of how far we are to go on producing our own food, instead of depending as much as we did years back on outside producers. And; not least, of even a score more urgent items, will be the relationship which is to cxist in future between the capitalists and the workers, be- 'tween /employers and employed, be- tween the richer and the poorer parts of 'the communities in our big tows and country villages. I might touch on all, or on many, of these issues fraught ~with such tremendous. consequences'for.the Em- pire and our own islands, but natur- ally time and space would forbid that, So let me just say a word about one of them--the' outlook of the workers . and their future relations with their employers.

We' saw, on the one hand, leisure and great riches displayed and flaunt- ed ostentatiously and irritatingly by a small percentage, comparatively 'speaking, of the population. On the other hand, we found masses of mis- erably poor folk, with slums that were a disgrace to any civilized country.

He was always afraid that if he made any experiment, and left the particular groove wherein he had been brought up, however much he rebellad agdinst the restrictions and injustices of it, he might fall into a worse case still--that it might prove "out of the frying-pan into the fire." Moreover, we must remember that we have to-day quite a different 'sort of man ih the workship and behind | the Bench from that which we had | fifty years back. Thén the workmen | {were uneducated; they had mot the! knowledge nor the aspiration for higher things that they have nowa- days. Then the workers were inex- perienced as to the greater aims; to- day they grasp them far better; whilst their education and thought have made them much more sensitive. We have to cope with this new state of the mass of people--a state 1, personally. am delighted to know is there.

"I think I looked at fifty farms in all parts of Ontario within 100 miles of Toronto. The first question I asked every man who ted to sell his farm was, 'How much do, you make off your farm every year?' 'and I don't-think there were a dozen who could tell. Probably that was the} reason many of them wanted to sell. I asked the man who owned the farm I bought, and he replied that he had made all the money he had in the bank.

From first to last Germany's diplo- macy has blundered. To the twelfth hour it-scornfully believed that Brit- ain would not fight. It counted on our weakness and political dissen-; sions. It assured itself that we were decadent. It insulted us with a pro-' posal to betray our glly--France. It mistook the temper of the French people and underestimated both the forces of Russia and the rate at which they could be mobilized early in the war. It was insensible as to the vigor of small nationalities and their passion for freedom, splendidly evine- ed by Belgium and Serbia. And it} has stumbled from one error to an- other in its treatment of neutral States. In spite of its vast and thor- | ough system of espionage, its as- | tounding acquisition of facts and opin- {ions in other lands it has failed to penetrate to the spirit of their peo- ples.
