Labor leaders of all shades of opinâ€" lon had provested against the bill, but it was put through Parkiiament, and then practically forgotten. News of its sppÂ¥cation, in fact, came as a great surprise, even to many poliâ€" ticians. There are certain indications that the coal striks may dovelop into a gencral strike, a warning of which is conveyed by the summoring of a conâ€" fererce by tho two other members of the "Labor Triple Alliance‘â€"the railway mon and the transport workâ€" The ccal strike alorie, apart from ite grave social corsequences, will «completoly paralyze British trade and industry, but a general strike would be a national calamity at this time.

Jugoâ€"Slavia on Thursday afternoon mobilized three army corps and occuâ€" pied Peco in the frontier region awarded to Hurgary under the Triâ€" anon treaty. They seized the imporâ€" tant railway and industrial town of Szegedin, several miles within the Huif'prian territery. _ The Czechoâ€" General Degonete AND THREA TEN TO FLOOD MINES The coal problem is extremely diffiâ€" cult of solution, because whils everyâ€" one admits that the minors have a grievance in facing a heavy reduction | in wagres, no one can suggest how it may be obviated except by a ment subsidy. This seems t of the question. _ _ _ _ It is also admitted that the diverâ€" sion of the coal to cverseas trade was due mainly at first to the exorbitant prices fixed by the ceal owners, who were determined to maintain the‘r immense profits in addition to meeting the increased wages. e _ Now by reason of the United States ecmpetition and the increasing resâ€" triction of the French demand because & -i:l';”oi;ik_; _can amelicrate such a situation, but it can ceortainly make it worse. f of her coal receipts from Germany, the situation Gemands a sacrifice, but reither the miners nor the owners aro willing to face it. The coal miners, in determining t:he‘ existing wage contracts, gave notice to all mine employes, including the enginemen and pumpmen, who were the chicf beneficiaries under the war wage scale, and this notice which the coal owners contend was only a formâ€" ality, these workers are now threatâ€" ening to accept, thus allowing the mines to be flooded and ruining the industry for an indefinite time.

Wherein the average man seems to have been mistaken. Upper Silesia is not to be denied her "place in the sun" of the world‘s new!s.

Germany gets the clear majority; The Silesian Tangle. Toronto. Weekly Market Report REGLAR FELLERSâ€"By Gene Byrnes but Poland claims to have carried majority of the communes. Towns and industrial centres go Teuton; but the Pole carries the farming areas and the mining towns. A boundary line that would separate Polish and German areas would look like a trail left in the dust by a snake with a broken back. Nevertheless, an effort is certain to give Poland a part, at least, of the eastern area of Upper Silesia. Most of the world Rped for a Polâ€" ish victory. It is rather hard to get away from the feeling that had the Poles polted a majority not quite oo< much would be heard of the secondary provisions of the Silesian agreemmt.‘ The Teuton would have been bending over maps and talking of "industrial interdependence," but the rest of the world would have been unworried.

The Ontario spends something over twenty millions of dollars annually on its public, separate, industrial, conâ€" tinuation, and high schools, and its collegiate institutes. The great bulk of this amount is contributed and exâ€" pended by the municipalities themâ€" selves. On university education the Province spends less than two milâ€" lions of dollars; that is, less than oneâ€" tenth of the amount spent on primary and secondary education. No one who realizes the interdeâ€" perdence of the various grades of education will argue that university education costs too much. "Primary, secondary, and higher education are part of one great education effort. The goal of that effort is to develop a free human being who has been prepared for the responsibility of deciding things for himself. Each division of | our educational system has its share in this preparation. The same pupill may pass through all grades. The teachers of the primary schools are taught in the secondary schools by teachers who have themselves been taught in the universities. The effecâ€" tiveness of university work largeiy deâ€" pends on the excellence of the preâ€" paratory schools, ard the whole tone iand atmosphere of the secondary schools are created by their univer-‘ sityâ€"trained staffs. The character of !bhe work in the primary schools is ultimately influenced or even detcr-‘ mined by the ideals of the University. The interests of primary, secondary, and higher education are interdepenâ€" kdent and interlocked.

As for regulation of factories enâ€" titled to manufacture arms, Berlin presents a most remarkable plea. Article 63 of the treaty says: therefore, arms could not be manuâ€" factured in other factories, of which it gave a list, including the Krupp works. Germany‘s new note declares the treaty gives the allies no right to forbid the manufacture of arms in all theze factcries, and that the allies have power to act on‘y with regard to the factories named by the German Government as official arms manuâ€" factories.

Mme. Curie, of France Those who know anything of the Turk at home in his bot"â€"~ing dominâ€" fons are wel eware of the fact that he has a way of posing before the visiter and before a distant foreign government, not mereby as the sick man of Europe, but as the great gentleman of Europe and of Asia, too. Fow cquial and none surpase the flewâ€" hess geniality he can assume; he is the devil‘s own child at donning the divery of light and masquerading as an Anxious to lift from himsecelf this hard, true name, he uses all his skil in camouflage, all the Jeferential dexâ€" tority of personal «ddress, al the veneer of manner that hides the real intent and the black heart to "bamâ€" booz‘e" the westerner. From the way in which woestern diplomacy is now playing into tiis hand, it would seem that all} the lesâ€" sons of misrule and bloody massacre, chiefly at the expense of the Armen ians, is utterly lost by those who have been boodwirked by the Tork and are enamored of murderers. Thosa who side with the Turk are compount ing a felony against civilizaticn. They are supporting all that the opinion of respectable mankind opposes. They give counrtenance to monstrous infomâ€" ies and bloody vilany without a parâ€" allol. What on earth has the Turkish Government done that it shoull be permitted to live and that it shouldd actually be received vith profe @oms of favor, and even friendship, by {Uhase whose eyes shou‘dl heve been wile open to the real Turk long ego? We are specking of the Turk not as an individual, but as a governing f2° tor. It ceems true that Turkis\ solâ€" diers in the field were often found 4o be chivalvous foemen and that some Turks of the <‘d regyms have besa kind, honorable, charit=b‘s noighbors to the distressed. But the Young Turk movement, whose chief proiregonia‘s have heen Enver Pasha ars the mourâ€" dered Talaat, has disopprsinted the hope of the world for beiter things, and has finally shown how empty are the professions of rcform vhen deâ€" tached from corduct. Much of the sacrificial cost of the wor hss gore,» for nought if it loaves the raÂ¥ag Tok * the same free agent in the Levaat |(ht he was before 1914. What would you say to sugar that cost from $75 to $375 a pound*? Well, there are sugars for which such prices are asked, and which people buy. The most expensive of them is calied dulâ€" citol and costs $375 a pound. By comâ€" parison the other sugars seem almost cheap. Mannose, for example, cosis only $140 a pound. Mannose is made from the seraps that are left over is making vegoetable ivory buttons. Ar other sugar, mannite, is made from manna, the nutritive gum with which the children of Isracl were fed in the wilderness. _ Nonna forms in little ‘ Aakedike scales, which the wind blows into the air and carries to the ground some distance away. It has the dell cate taste of a sweet wafer,. Still anâ€" other of the sugars, called xylose, is made from corncobs and is priced at I $120 a pound. The costliness of thos» sugars is the result of the excessive care that must be exercised in making them, for the presence in them of any imâ€" purity or of any other kind of sugar unfits them for the important uses to which they are put. Every bacteriological laboratory has them. _ One is particularly useful in detecting typhoid; the organisms that cause the disease are so fond of it that they pounce upon it at once and there multiply so fast that their presence is easily detected. Others are invaluâ€" able in detecting cholera germs. Only a smal quantity of the sugars is used at one time. An ounce of some of them would last even a busy bac teriologis!t a year.
