British Action Averteil War Peace, and the acceptance of the allied terms, is the Turkish decision that concludes the tense Near-East situation, and the whole British Em- pire joins in a sigh of relief. Once more the vigilance of the Empire- s leaders, with a background of Imp- erial naval and military strength, has been the real element that saved Europe and Asia, at least, from a war in which the Christian world might have been faced by the mil- lions of Mohammedan followers stir-1 red by Turkey s call to arms. Greece I has not been entitled to much of the. world's sympathy before orisince the end of the world war, but to prevent greater calamity Britain has been forced to adopt measures which pro- tected that country against the re- sults of its own folly. An early and easier settlement of the Near East problem could have been reached exce t for the attitude of France, whic has been exerting its influence on behalf of Turkey, and. secretly giving Kemal support which was in- imicable to British inuence. France for a while, in fact, "adopted such an- arrogant attitude towards Britain that British public opinion was in- censed at the insults accorded her as a great and powerful ally.

ALLANDALE d";`;." hroa Extent of ' Germany : Defanlt I Reginald McKenna, once British Chancellor of the Exchequer and now head of a famous London Banking firm, has put in a simple and concise way, the tale of Germany's default since -the Treaty of Versailles. and it indicates something of why France is so embittered toward an enemy which escaped practically unscathed from the ravages of warfare`, and which now is climbing to a commer- cial success over more broken prom- ises.

The storm clouds have gathered thickly once more a- round the head of the little Welsh- man, David Lloyd George, who seems to haveathe characteristic of drawing the lightning whenever a world cris- is develops. He has another charac-I teristic, however, of converting light-1 ning into dynamic force to raise him to higher planes of` popular regard. Will he succeed once more`? Some sec- tions of the English press have been crying out for an election, and with his usual rapier thrust came the` sur- prising announcement in. the Prem-. ier s personal organ, ThepChronicle, the day after the Turkish agreement, [that there is. to be an election before Christmas. He is marshalling his party forces and on Saturday will lmake his formal statement to par- liament, Whatever the result may be, the process is sure to be an in- teresting one. He will probably have a good defence for his pro-Greek pol- ' icy and for the war expenditures. 311108 cue euu U1 uu: war \n:I.'luau_v nab actually paid in cash only $375,000,- 000, a paltry sum for so huge an em- pire which is supposed to be submit- |ting to the terms of its victors. It ' is, in fact, less than five per cent of the indemnities. she must eventually pay. In` contrast to this France in 1870,- broken as she was by a lost war and a nation _ so much smaller than Germany, raised one billion dollars in . one year, and paid = off her victors. Germany has taken over two years to pay off one-twentieth of her debt. \Cl|IuI av II nnuovvnq It has cost fifty lives _and eight million dollars in property damage to em hasize a lesson which Canada shoul have learned many years ago. The terrible "fires which swept the Temiskaming district of Ontario last week were not forest fires, for the country is well settled,and organized and contains hundreds of prosperous farms. They were started by the settlers themselves, who to save twenty or thirty dollarsan acre in the cost of clearing their farms, turn- ed to the express! forbidden and` dangerous practice of burning bush and stumps. Some _two hundred of suggested that` Britain retire againl into that i.~--ilation fro-.1 Europeav-. zit"- fairs, which she, aswell as the United States, could assume and leave France to work out her own destinies in the arena of 'European politics. Fr.-:.ince hurrix:-dly retired from her p(.v,:lI.lUn of .-1rroy:ance and interference, threw in her support with Britain in the l`1n-k- ish affair, and as promptly the opposi- tion of Kemal melted into a state of comprozmse. Turkey was dismay:-cl at the change in the French attitude. `Shortly afterwards a sharp reminder .from Th-itain that her moral and phys- lical st.reng_'th were behin_d- the ultim- 'atum for peace or war, brought the .Turkish acceptance of the terms. Even at that Turkey makessome imp- ortant territorial gains. The Greeks must retire from Thrace within fif-` teen days and` complete the transfer of the area to Turkey within another month. Allied forces not exceeding` seven battalions are to occupy the ter- ritory in the meantime and oversee the transfer to the civil Turkish Gov- ernment- New neutral zones are to be named and.the Turkish troops are to be withdrawn with all -possible speed. The zones occupied by allied troops along the Dardanelles are also, fixed and the Kemalist troops agreej to respect their areaof control. Kem, al Pasha has, however, expressed [personal dissatisfaction` with the terms, and martial law has been pro- claimed in Greece to prevent an out- break againstthe acceptance of the terms in that country. Outt-io | Fire Leuon `these fires ej alleged .to have been` burning w_he -a sudden sale of w1nd, ' rblowing-`sixty to eightyqniles an hour, ! whipped up the little fires into one` `enormous holocaust. How. often, imust the lesson be reiterated before `it is finally learned? Surely the day will come when endangering ;.life and [property in the countrywill be con: sidered just as much as criminal. offence as the same act in the city;.! After one staggering moment when} the news reached the surrounding! {cities, the citizens turned to measures: of relief that demand more. than merei words of commendation. Premier` Drury left Toronto -fifteen minutesl after the news arrived, and he 'super-: `vised the work of relief in the north. Food." shelter and clothing were ready} for the refugees when they arrivedl `at the nearest relief cities, and alson !transportation to home and friends, `no matter how far distant. Carloads: of foods, clothes and building ma- terials were started north before the; xflames were subsided and permanent| relief measures were immediately put; V under way. i -nu-I nu -11.:-ucuun-a Italy plans to profit by the. Turkislnj situation, maintaining, if s_he can thel Dodocanese Islands, which she had! promised to yield to Greece. Thel stor_v of the Islands dates back over? three wars, and though Italy has twice `promised to give them up, they have lnot yet passed out of her possession. The islands are potential naval bases, and France would like to see them in the hands of the Turks, while Bri- tain favors the Greek claims. It is. s the reluctance with which some of the` allies live u _to their obligations that is responsible for the difficulties that arise from time too time among the smaller and less powerful neighbors. ------ u---- uv nun . I. aways: Great Britain, as usual will pay] her debts. Public sentiment, which; has a way of making itself keenly`- felt in the British Isles, is opposed to seeking cancellation of the Bri- tish war debt to the United States. !Tradition in the old land has always Ibeen for meeting national obligations bravely, no matter how great they are, and in this matter the new Bri- tain is maintaining `.2ist<:1-ic char-j iacteristics in response to popular; `opinion. - 3 - -- vuuuuuuwouvunu run`-- w `an -we Discoveries of ahighly interesting and important nature have been made recently by archaeological par; ties in Syria and Palestine.
