I Little fault could be found with the average readers of. newspaper de- spatches if they evince impatience over the mass of reports, many or them_ contradictory, about the Ger- man situation. Yet so much depends upon the clearing up of that situa- tion. Fortunately for the good of mankind in general progress is being made. The lateststep is the com- pliance of the Germans to the varied undertakings demanded by the allied Reparations Commissions, even if that consent is accompanied by the qualification that. Germany must_ get a foreign loan. The Bankers Com- mittee, now in session in Paris, thus gains added status. It is not a factor a in an internationalpolitical situation of a delicate nature. There is no _ absolute assurance that it will ar- range for a loan to Germany, but as that was one of its primary object- ives, it will doubtless do so. For the ' moment then a new crisis has been J` averted. France had taken very ` strong grounds on the question of reparations, having declared through _~ its Premier that if-the terms to be 1 submitted by the Reparations Com- 1 mission were not accepted she would I take steps to enforce the Peace ` Treatyif she had to do it alone.

To-day there are twenty-ve million more women than men in those countries, working out at 1,111 women to every 1.00.0 men. ' This discrepancy is often enough the subject for the cartoonist and the joke-smith. But it is of grave economic and social import. The old world has many serious problems. The tremendous loss it has susta-ined in man power "is not the least `of them. In the face of` the gures that have been quoted and which the cable savs were compiled from the latest avail- ableinformation, it `is obvious that more war would be national suicide for many countries. Yet some of them talk and act as if war was the only solution for the entanglements of peace. 1 I I F in . _~ V I conditions laid down by the Commis- sion give the allies a considerable measure of control in respect to Ger- man nance.

The party hich favored the restoration of a T onarchial system of govern-A ment had a rough time. When for- bidden to hold meetings` they resorted to the wireless telephone to carry on their election campaign, and distribut- ed thousands of posters of Prince Otto, the son of ex-king Charles. The wireless phones were cut off, however, and the posters were torn down wherever they appeared. Only two ..1egit.imists or Ottoists as the Monarchistic party preferred to be called. were returned to Parliament. Two Social` Democrats were elected, It While freight rate reductions are 5 being discussed in Canada it is of in- terest to note that the Interstate " Commerce Commission of the United States has ordered freight rate cuts which will aggregate about $400,000,- 000 a year. The order was accom- panied by an announcement that on July 1 reductions of a little over thirteen per cent. will be made in the wages of railway maintenance staffs, and that later all classes except train ' services and yard employees will have their wages reduced. ` Engineers, con-V ; ductors and other skilled service men, : pay will also be cut. There were some wage reductions made in July last, and the reductions to be made soon will, with these, cancel the in- creases to the classes affected which were granted in May of 1920 when railwaywages in the United States were at their peak. The new cuts for maintenance of way men will, it is said`, bring their pay down to a point where they will get from 23 cents to 35-cents per hour. It is clear that further cuts could not thereafter be made as against them, and additional reductions would have to be made on other classes. Already the `unions likely to be a"ected are` `talking of strikes and votes will be taken with such action in view unless there is sqme modication of the ` orders. It is claimed by those who profess to be experts that the average of railway wages could be still fur-i ther reduced and yet remain con- siderably higher than in the pre-war period. Canadian trainmen are na- turally watching"-`events with some interest since they are bound to have `their reductions on this side of the border. `Indications po: to freight rate reductionsand wage reductions `on the railwayin this country also.

The Cane adian government does not consider the present an opportune time for such negotiation. This in brief is the status of a project that has been be- fore thepeople of both countries for some years. by the Canadian authorities for delay are that the Government has not yet had opportunity to properly study the report of the International Joint Commission and the engineers who have investigated the project, and that its magnitude and the very large outlay that would be involved make action inexpedient just now. The Washington proposal, however, does not seem to call for immediate embarkation on the present or any plan; It speaks ofpa treaty to be framed onlthe basis of the report of the Joint Commission, orvsuch mod- ication as might be agreed upon. . It has been urged by those who are supporters of the project that "pre- liminaries of th's nature should be entered into` wi out delay as they would accupy long time during which nancial and industrial con- ditions might be_ expected to improve verv much." Opponents of the plan will not lose any sleep over the turn of events. Meanwhile supporters in -the United States Congress, while ex- pressing their." disappointment over thereception of the Harding proposal, say that if Canada should "nally de- cline to enter the project they will seek another route to the sea, either via the Mississi'pi or by expansion of the New York Barge Canal.

For the British govern- ment Winston Churchill, _ Colonial Secretary, announced some days ago -that it reserves full right of any action,it deems t in the event of any member of the Free State govern- ment yet to be elected refusing to take "the oath of allegiance to the Crown. In other words that. the agreement between de Valera for the Republicans and Collins forithe Pro- visional government, whereby some of the former are to be included in the new government, is regarded in Britain as a menace to -Ireland and a distinct breach of the agreement be- tween Britain and the Free Staters. Meantime, many` acts of warfare are being committed on the Ulster border and. in the interior of Ulster. The Irish settlement is a long time set- tling. Though progress has'been made, Canada has been slow to realize` the ' importance of forest preservation and protection. As this is written des- patches tell of many big res in the forest areas of Quebec and British Columbia. Of course with such vast V areas of forest lands as still remain in this country, many of them path- less,` the difficulties of battling against some of these res are tre- mendous. But it cannot be too strong- ly impressed `upon the people of this country that their forest lands are assets that should be safeguarded as closely as actual visible money. They are the basis of great industries, and with care and judicious plans of forestation should be made a source of perpetualwealth. over_the steady ow of art treasures to the United States. Sir Philip Sas- soon, Premier Lloyd _George s Par- liamentary Secretary, has made the suggestion in the Commons that the British Treasury be empowered to make special grants to the National Gallery, for extraordinary emergen- cies, so that it may be able to pur- chase for the nation some of the ner worksgof art left in. the country. National poverty was given by a spokesman of the government as thel I There is a real alarm in Britain I reason why this could not be done at the present time. Britain is more anxious to reduce her war debts than to spend money for the keeping of art treasures in the country. But the agitation in favor of a national policy in this regard is likely to gain strength that will be effective.
