A curious turn has been reached in respect to the situation in Morocco [where `rebellious tribesmen in the Unemployment is indeed a grave! question in many lands, `our own ' among them. In Canada there are Imore encouraging signsof a return `to better conditions than was the case v a few weeks ago. They are welcome` wherever noted. It would be a mis-;` take to _look for a rush back to a` boom of prosperity. .What the ex-i perts .see is a gradual and a healthy return. Nevertheless, many places , are planning to give what "casual and! 1 temporary work is possible. In On-l : tario, the provincial government, [which has had the matter before it [in varied forms, has decided to go ahead at'_once with the projected ex- I tension of the Temiskaming and ` Northern` Ontario Railway from ` Cochrane northward for some seven-. 1 ty miles. The cost will be about .3 three and a half -million dollars and work will be provided for a consider- , able number,of men who have been out of work in the northern Ontario 1 centres. The district 9_be__ opened ` up is already partially settled and.1 the- area of good _agricultu1"_al' land J ( holds out promise of future expan-' ( sion. The extension will end at : Smoky Falls, where there is one of ' the greatest of undeveloped water powers in the north. If it isdecided later on to electrify the T, & N.O. railway, this water power would be u. v a vital factor. The Dominion De- partment of Railways and Canals has also decided upon a program of re- pairs that will help out the situation. The department. will also place orders now for quantities_of steel rails in ' anticipation of demands for next. } s ;7ring, instead of waiting until early (in the year to do that. Work, rather lthan doles, must be the real solution of unemployment., In_this the (`an- adian view agrees. with that of Brit- ain s premier and President Harding iof the United States. The latter, in opening a national unemployment conference at Washington, declared that .no assistance could be expected from the government which involved contributions from the public treas- urery. The government will doyits part to assist in providing, work,- not doles. tnumber .of garden cities, or, as we ! would say in Canada, model cities. An immense amount of needed mun- icipal work has been neglected. in Britain owing to the financial bur- `dens oi` the taxpayers. If a begin- [ning could be` made on it ,now it iwould probably save greatly increas- ged expenditures as compared with [the cost of further neglecting it. It is said that there are nearly `two mil- -lion men out of work in Britain at this time, besides many women. The country awaits -with some interest Ian authoritative announcement of `the plans of the government. The assembly of the League of Nations, in session for some weeks at Geneva,. will "adjourn in the course of a few days-- if it has not done so by the time this appears. It has not shown the League in so strong a light as those who conceived and stood _by it had hoped. Chief of its failures is due to the fact that it has no armed power or any other weapon beyond moral suasion at its command to paid in making its decisions effective. Hos: tile racial elements "are not always likely to keep on the_ frontiers of manna` um, -nnnu. UL u :11. Annual ;ILAAAhJu\...l, J.1Ulln .A. J. Balfour, pleading before. the League of. Nations for any aid that might be availableito be given to Austria, is another commentary on the price that nations pay when they put militarism foremost in their scheme of development. J c The German mark is stillon the ' decline; it "will soon be nothing if it ` keeps on dropping in value. Thous- ands of speculators who bought it at " five to six cents in the hope of reap- ing a nice profit when it began to get back to something more like its normal value of about 24 cents, .-are now unloading and saving whatever theycan out of the wreck. In spite of all her industry and spirit of de- termination to -get out of .the clutches of the allies, the Germans are in. a desperate plight financially. The situation is one that calls for care and caution by the allies. It would not be surprising ipflconcessions were made for the taking of part. of the nextreparation payment in raw ma- terial and goods rather than in gold.

I I I I ' Unofficial figures put the number! of people out of work in the United Istates at 6,000,000. 7 In face of that, `it is reported that the-figures of the. vote of the railway unions" on the question of the twelve per cent. re- duction, show an overwhelming ma- jority in favor ofmejection of the iif that is insisted upon. \'1`he head gofficials of the unions arennot in favor apparently of acting in the affirmative light of the vote. They are said to be determined not to `call ithe men out and to use all their in- fluence in view of present conditions glower scale and the calling of a strike! to avert a strike. I Since the armistice, Britain has! expended on relief for the unemploy- ed, chiefly through the aid of the unemployment insurance scheme, the gigantic sum of 105,000,000 pounds. Another 20,000,000 is likely to be, voted to the scheme inlthe `near fu-[ ture. These figures, based on o'icia.li statements by Lloyd George, Winston Churchill and other members of the! cabinet, are proof of the seriousness of the unemployment situation in- Great Britain, which is now receiving the earnest consideration of the cab- inet. Indeed, it has taken a front` rank as against some of the foreign questions and other `problems -that hadlmonopolized the stage for some time. It is said that Lloyd George,` with the assistance of a number of I leaders in industry, financiers and, economic experts, has about decided}. upon a plan which may carry the workless folk in Britain through the I winter without the suffering that will . be_inseparable if present conditions - continue. One report of these plans is that their basis is a vast scheme . of municipal improvements through- j out the country. `It will include a ..-.o *1.

He plans to ignore the _v Sultan entirely, giving certain of the native territory auton- omy in varying degrees. The inter- ests of France and`Britain are also involved in this matter, and Spain could not take any steps such, as those proposed without the consent of the other two owers.

LL- _L_-_L their countries the pledges theirvdele-i gates tothe League have made. On the whole there may be a semblance of observing these among the smaller nations. The larger powers would;be more concerned about keeping faith. Still the League at, the sitting now over has accomplished some good de- spite,the limitations of itself that it recognizes. Poland and Lithuania I have listened to its appeals and kept from active hostilities for a year or! more. Chile and Bolivia have been brought into direct negotiation in regard to their territorial dispute, and there is hope of their becoming fully reconciled. The Serbian, or rather, Jugo-Slavia, and Albanian` conflict has been stayed while efforts are being made by diplomats to put an end to the fighting on the border. There is a danger that Lord Robert Cecil s resolution, carried before thel assembly committee in favor of pro- posals for general `disarmament throughout the world, may do consid- ierable harm rather than good. [Nations may feel that the conference I at Washington next November should , ibe given first chance to see what can be done in respect to this idea, and resent the League assembly tak- _ ing upithe matter now. ` DOYOU SERVE 'CH|C.KEN> HERE 9 WELL~I `SHOULD $AY we.
