She cannot make her way out of it without the assistance of other powers. and that will not be given until she -convinces f_ them of her sincerity. ' s I I Medical science is marching on to new conquests. -though there are many dreaded diseases whichstill baffle all `the efforts of .man. The British medical world is in- `tensely interested in_ a possible` `cure for tuberculosis which has beendiscovered by Professor Dryer of Oxford University; who` has devoted many years to -the _study of this wide-spread disease and the means of checking it. In brief his discovery rests upon the method of so treating anti-tuber-i culosis vaccine so as to make it a cure for tuberculosis. A committee of medical men which has investigated the method speak of it in restrained but hopeful terms. It will not do to accept as proved beyond doubt, the benefit of this cure for a disease that i is world-wide. It seems to hold pmibilities. I however. which some widely-advertised { cures of a few years ago never possessed. { Largest Submarine At the Washington Conference on arm- ] ament. British deleg-ates proposed that sub- ' marines should be made unlawful as weap- lons of war. The other nations declined to accept this view. Britain has, therefore. done the obvious thing; she has added to 5 her already largest submarine in the world A still larger vessel. It is, in fact. a sub- imersible bat`leship_. of nearly four thou- : sand tons and- carrying 13.5 inch guns. This {is in addition to other armament beyond the dreams of n-aval designers of a few years ago. The vesselwill he very speedy. ,under water and on the surface. Britain is the `only nation of all that gathered at. Washing on to carry out the terms of the armament pact. She is, however, -deter I mined that the vessels she does keep shall 1. be the best afloat. I l I cure for Tuberculosis A sdbstitute will disaopoint you. Manager, (Barrie. 56 ceed. ; It is a gratifying commentary 'on conditions in Europe `and in `respect to the Near East particularly, to find that Euro- pean "observers are agreed that Turkey `is now most anxious to he on friendly terms with Britain; which country she now re- gards as being the strongest of the powers. Lord Curzon, the present Minister of Bri- tish Foreign Affairs; is credited by some sec- I tions of the press as being mainly respon-I . sible for this change in feeling. Lloyd`; George is surely entitled :o'a share in that` credit. His mobilization of British fleets- off th_e Straits and the assembling of Brit-I ish troops at strategical points must have: ` convinced t.heTurks that the limit of Bri't- I ish patience had been reached and must not , be crossed. Some ofthe problems unsolved ` by the `Laixsanne Conference may be set-` tied at the Permanent.-Court of Internation- Ital Justice now meeting at the Hague.

Generally speaking, how-; ever, the xiew of` the people finds a voice | in the results, though at times it might ap- 5 pear as if a minority only had decided the issue. But this countny has little to `com- 1 plain of in respect to the workings out of i its constitution. Sooner or later laws are I made or" altered that. are in keeping with ` the opinions of most. of the voters. The! day has gone by when a hand of tyrannical autocrats can rule_ any British country.i imposing their will by force against that of ` the people. And there are very few coun-} tries on the face of the earth where that can now be done for any lengthy period.; In English-speaking countries the citizen-I hood has great opportunities and privil-i Anna TK7`-...a61uou :6 non nn n flnnvn in Q.` IIII'IvI\ -vv--u v--u , Ne\'vlYork interests are negotiating with, Welsh coal mine owners to take twenty.-fivei ,.per cent. of--the anthracite output for :1! `period of three to five years. This is an _I loutcome of the temporary trade in Welsh ` 5 coal during the American coal strike` of last year. The old country operators are pre-. pared to make better provision for uniform-. {ity `of sizes and in the handling of the coal -than could possibly be done in the rush of supplying output for emergency purposes. . .It has developed during the course of the` negotiations that coal can be sent from - British ports to Boston, U.

Whether it lives up to thenmis a` matter for its own decision. . . l I Agriculture Basic , i The slump in pricesof farm produce andl particularly of wheat, said to be_ the most [ pronounced in fifty years, has alarmed the agricultural interests of the United States. `0ff.icials'of a number of the States famous for production of wheat have held confer- ences to discuss the situation but it is difficult to understand in what manner they can combat it. The whole world is more or less-involved in` such questions, and perhaps most of the people are still too apt to compare war-time pric$ with those of normaltimes and count their losses on that basis. In this country everyone rec- ognizes that the real basis of prosperity is agriculture. We have not yet_ got to the point where manufacturing is paramount and where it would pay us better to devote l all our attention to" that and. import our foodstuffs. It is very. doubtful, however, if prosperity for the agricultural interests can be made by legislation of .a general nature. It is to be hoped that the time is not far distant` when agriculture will be so prosperous that it will set the pace for good . times for all. , ALLISTON MEMORIAL LIBRARY With all the eclat that could be mustered after several days of -drenching rain, the people of Alliston anddistrict received the Hon.
