: j To provide transports for the soldiers is only the beginning of things i' There must be a continual ferry carrying Government stores, food am} sup bac plies of a 1 sorts. These shipping requirements are new. Last year vessels .\~â€"â€"â€"â€"could beâ€"released from military service from time to time in order to move F €argoes of raw sugar and of other requirements for the civil population of E‘ \ America. Thus, says the Toronto News, while the submarine peril has been % qvoreomoâ€"desplte occasional sinkingsâ€"and while the shipyards of two conâ€" is timents are driving ahead at full speed. the entry of the United States has &, driven the demand for cargoâ€"ships far above the supply. That supp y is growâ€" 6 ing, but so also is the American Army. The rigorous exigencies of the war * have put the needs, or the delicate appetites, of civilians in a secondary, even ¢ tertiary, position. The first call is for soldiers. The second, for military sup h; plies. When transport is provided for these, civilians have their turn. 2 4% 4 he war wi‘l not be won on the fighting lineg," General von Ludendorff BAic chen conditions were more favorable for tn?(}nmnna than they are toâ€" ,’;,ï¬;y, ‘but by the disintegration of the people back oyhe lines."

Bo far as the Telegraph is able to learn, however, the prilicipal reasons for the counci‘s s‘ on were the solicitor‘s failure to attend ‘council meetings and his inabisity to give a straight yes or no answer at ANime#/t0 the questions of the Counciliors on legal matters. it seeims to be mew rule that requires city or town solicitors to regularly attend councii P In this city as in others we know, the custom is for the solicitors ~attend council meetings upon request and when advice is given to put it d writing. If city solicitors were to be condemued to dismissai for not. atâ€" tending council meetings and not giving offâ€"hend illâ€"considered opinions on inâ€" #ricate questions of law, there wou.d be few city solicitors in Ontario to day. I‘D value of & solicitor‘s service. whether he be acting in behaif of & private ‘Abdividual or a public coFporation, should be measured by his abliity to save Bis client the worry and expense of costly litigation and not by the number of z sults he is able to institute, successtul or otherw‘se. Measured by this the solicitor in question has remdered vaiuab s service to the Town of Waterico. In the important matter of the street rai way arbitration pro ceedings a few years sgo he was successfal in securin: (nr Waterioo twenty RAveâ€"per cent. of the net profits of the roadâ€"a favorah‘e arvangement so far rs Waterloo is concerned. To throw overboard one who has given twen: years of faithful service to his municipality, and at a time when he is workin: against his physician‘s orders, is surely not the kind of cons‘deration the citizens of the prosperous town of Water!oo desire to be accorded their public mervants‘ If we do not mistake their temper they will call for a reconsiders tion on the part of the council of what has the appearance of a hasty, illcon midered and unkind action. R "There is an abundance of raw sugar in Cuba and the West Indies. Why not bring it over?" That is a sample of the conversation one hears in the resataurants. Perhaps the mujority of peop‘e do not fuily realize the growâ€" Wm:md forâ€"ships in the transatlantic trade. During the past year the United States has sent oversea immense army, which, thank Heaven, is in créasing by thousands a day, is colossal. In @n article in these columus in connection with the res‘gnations of A B. McBride as Town Solicitor of Waterloo, we reférred to the services he had rendered in that capacity, giving as an instance his work in the street railway arbitration proceedings. Another instance which might have been menton #d, and which by a peculiar coinefdence came ap in the business of the Coun eil the very night it was demanding his resignation, was the queston of the taxation of the Waterloo Waterworks‘ standpipe property situated in the city of Kitchener. Last year by a legislative wmendment municipalities were given the power to tax public utilities of this character, which up to that time had been exempt from taxation. When the forty year agreement between the town of Waterloo and the then town of Bertin was drawn twenty years ago by the then chairm n of the Waterioo Water Commission, David Bean, Engi mneer Hodgkins and Solicitor McBride, it was suggested that as the public utilitiecs were exempt under the act it would be unnecessary to include a taxation clause. However, Mr. McBride said their would be no harm in put: ting a clause into the agreement to that effect, and it was done. By this act mlone he saved the town of Waterloo the tazes on the property for twenty years. At present, with local improvement taxes, these would amount to $140 a year. That this evidence of the worth of his services should be educed at the same meeting as McBride‘s resignation was called for was an unfortunate coincidence so far as the Council was concerned. Fortunately the Allies have coâ€"ordinated their shipping supply, and so far they have becn abie to maintain the people of America in a position of comâ€" fort and even of luxury without interfering with the soldiers‘ needs. If wheat and meat products have been conserved, the task has been accomplished without distress, mainly by educating the people in the use of substitutes. There is a good deal less waste than in former years. ‘Thousands of people have learned that hearts and livers are tasty as well as nourishing. Miliions have discovered fish delicacies which they never knew before. In like manner, with respect to the sugar shortage, a ‘vast number of households will learn the merits of yellow sugar, and various syrups which in other times were not even considered in drafting the weekly billâ€"ofâ€"fare. 4 _ The cheering news from the front these days should make the Canadians generous in their contributions to al} war funds. Most people will rejoice when the war is over, but the men who are fAighting the battles for us do not want a premature peace but a permanent one. With over 140,000 prisoners captured in the last six weeks the German easualty lists must be making a terrible impression upon the minds of the reâ€" latives in that country. _ Before the war, the Allied nations in Europe drew virtually no sugar from the sources of supply for this continent. Now about oneâ€"third of the sugar from these sources is going to the Alilfes, «. Househoiders are urged to limit the consumption of sugar to one cuplul a day. The famous war correspondent, Frank H. Simonds, who has not been given to making optimistic predictions. expresses the opinion that the preâ€" sent Cerman retreat will go to the Belgian frontier. It will be a great day for the French when this is accomplished. New London, Conn., has adopted a unique means of curhing profiteering in house rents. A board has been formed consisting of public spirited citiâ€" zens of standing. including lawyers, real estate men, manufacturers and others who meet daily in subâ€"committees of three to hear complaints of tenants re gording extortionate rents.â€" If a tenant makes out a case the sub committee requests the land‘ord to attend to give his side of the case.
