In laying, the mineral-surfaced half of the strip entirely overlaps, and is.securely cemenfd to the plain surfaced portion. This gives a double thickness built-up roof throughout, with mineral surface exposed to the weather. Good inoks. The mineral surface--in permanent, fadeless red or green-ne-ver needs painting.

Technical- ly,.therefore, the country will be governed according to the will of the people as ex- presed by their votes. If this should actually become the case it will -be a good thing for Russia as well as` for the est of the world. One may doubt, ho vever, whether in_ present conditions a. free ex- pression of the will of the peopleis possible in that country. The power is in the hands of a few, and it has been used in a fash: on that has been directly responsible for much oi` the chaos existent in Russia, There is an uncertainty in the financiai markets of the world at the moment ac- companied by? lowered prices. in securities.` The summer season may be accortmtable to. e certain extent, "but there are many other faetonf which must be taken into X vavuyui uv ~.:Juuv.,_y, avuva uuuua, an: uuc. There areso many angles to these occur- rences that people who are not on the scene, and who have not first-hand information, are not really qualified to discuss them or to apportion the blame to one side or the] other. Human nature `does not run in k grooves so far as its opinions on these mat- ters are concerned. When the day comes that such disputes will be arranged -by= workers and capitalists in conference, while work a continues uninterruptedly, a veryi lung ;.d_\'ance will have been made towardsl the attainment of that Brotherhood of Man which the idealists and dreamers preach and write about. ` ' | The Strikes at Sydney Fort.u_na.tely for Canada disturbances such as those which called for the `presence of` troops at Sydney, Nova Scotia, are rare. orb nrn an nnnnu unnulnn in l-Inn;-.. nan..- ` - . . . . . _ . . . - -uu- ---I I _ . . I China goes from bad to worse. The econ- ; omic and, financial chaos `in that country is` beginning to involve the -powers in a man- ner that will call `for some very delicate; handling. The United States is displaying a` more than usual interest in this Foreignl complication. She seems to be anxious} for someone to act. but does not accept a proposed plan for-the restoration of orderl suggested by Great Britain. It is even} reported that in the opinion of the U.S. gov- ; ernment this plan does` notgo far enough; Most ohserversviwould `be rather surprised: to find the United States willing to inter-l (ere in the affairs of another country to a greater extent than Britain might suggest. The Powers have so many concessio 3 inf and/agreements with China, -that it is 'ttlei wonder that they cannot reach an arrange- ment for a common line of action. The`, report that Japan is proposing a joint plan; in which herself, Britain and the United} States shall be the parties, is of interest.` This idea involves a program that would` be in the nature of aid to the central gov- ernment of China in suppressing 'banditr_vi and disorder. and in restoring trade, financef and commerce to its normal channels. I g - V I German "Reparations l l The German reparations issue has enter- ed upon a new and a dangerous phase. One demonstration of it has been aiforded by the. bombing of a Belgian train. resulting in the death of a number of men. France has also found that the Germans are intro- ducing murder as part of their resistance` Ito Franco-Belgian occupation. Britain and France are still at odds on the matter, land the sit-uation does not appear to be satisfactorily cleared up by recent exchanges iof views. The seizure of private property for reparation purposes has already been put iinto effect by the French military. acting tin conjunction with the civil experts sentl |t.o the occupiedzones. While Paris is re-l iported as most anxious for a new and '.friendly understanding with Britain on all i theste matters, itemust be conafessed that the! "progress made has not been sufficient to; ;.rezno\'e causes of irritation. This irrita-E 2-tion has been emphasized by recent efforts] f of France to be sz-zpreme in the air. and will not be lessened by the latest announcement that France is embarking upon the build-. iing of a number of very large submarines. Good Report: on Western crop I A reminder of man s dependence uponl nature and a I-Iigher*Power was.given_ in the great hailstorm which did considerable` damage in parts of southern Alberta. In this country. probably a greater percentage of urban residents would be able to under- stand and sympathize with those to whom such a visitation would mean a serious loss. because they themselves are -from the" farm or only a generation away from there. ` Reports from the West of as reliable nature! as it is possible to compile `so far ahead of{ the harvest, predict a five hundred million} lbushel yield of wheat. With such a tre- mendous prospective harvest it is natural.` that holders of dld wheat should have some l worry about prices. Even if this expectedl big yield should fall far short of fulfillment`, it is probable that the yield would still bej very -big. The chances` now are against a visitation by storm `or other enemies of wheat that would have a marked destruc- tive effect upon the .'harvest. Some stu-i dents of the situation believe that Canada will find a big market in Europe for this year's crop. It is to be hoped that their expectations will be fully realized. , - -._..' -.-_ -v.-3..- - ..-`.y.. President `Harding of the. United 'Sttatesi has raised a storm of protest in his own V country by his assertion in a_ public ad- dress. that the League of Nations is `_`as `dead as slavery. Probably Mr. Hardingl and many other notable men in the Repub-I lican party wish that the assertion could be made with an acceptable degree of truth. The League of Nations has more than once prexfented new wars in Europe. and it is `accomplishing a consitlei-able amount of ef- -'fect'i\`e work in spite of the fact that the `United States. with the tremendous influ- ence its x:iembc1`ship would have, remains outside. Like many other organizations l the League is held by a good many people I_ to be__a useless kind of an institution be- : cause it does not pull otif spectacular stunts. President Harding's idea of menrbership in the World` Court, provided that the League of _ Nations would consent to the US. entering with certain modifications in the requirements, does not seem to rouse great ent_husiasni; Americans themselves lare somewhat puzzled as to the difference [in principle involved between the member- {ship in the League and in the Court. mun. l:'.VliN'l.'l T E?

The unsettled internationalj |sit-uation is one, the many labor disputes another. But on the whole there is an . undercurrent toward improvement to which too little attention is paid.

It is said that they had almost arrived at an understanding when British interests, hear- ing of the negotiations, made a bid to join i the prospective combination. Their views] were in the main acceptable. and the terms on which they are to be admitted are sup- posed to be under discussion. If such an! arrangement should be made. it is probable! that its eventual result would be the set--I i tlement of the reparations issue.
