HMHow to Assure Peace Bteps necessary to assure peace inâ€" clude the restoration of political conâ€" fidence. There are signs of that hapâ€" pening rcw. Italy and Russia see the British arming themselves and are beâ€" ginning to talk more reasonably. Adjustment of war debts is another necersity before peace is assured. Had the natiors accepted the suggestion of A. J. Balfour (the Earl of Balfour) that all war debts be canzelled, the worla would ‘be beitter off toâ€"day. Payment of the British debt to the United States is impossible because of the difficulty of transfer. Britain cannot pay in gold, so a market for British goods would have to be created in the United States., That would mean uremployment in the United States on a scale never known before. The solution lies in adjusiment at a sum of about £100,000,000, a British lean to be floated in dollars at a low rate of interest, to be repaid in 30 or 50 years. This would not disturb the econcmic equilibrium of the United States.

At the time of the occcurrence there was what may be iermed internaticnal excitement over the matter. It seemed at the time that the U.S. naval cfficers had made an unauthcrized balloon flight, and had drifted across Canada and were reâ€" ported lost in this courtry. It did not take long, however, for the word to get around here that the ballson had landed at Moose Factory and that the Hudson Bay factor was caring for the three officers. The next thing was to bring the men back to their friends. John Jones, a wellâ€"known oldâ€"imer of the North, then making his headquarâ€" ters in Timmins, volunteered to go in by dog team ard bring the men out. There was no railway then north of Cochrane and it meant a long trip by dog team to reach the men and bring them to the railroad. The trip was safeâ€" ly made, however, by John Jones. The recent reports of the finding of parts of the balloon by Indians has nprompiled Mr. Jones to write the followâ€" The recent parts of the promp.ed Mr ing letter:â€" Dear Sir:â€"I see in one of cent issues that some Indians covered the American balloon Factory. wWhen 1 brcught Licutenant AILOO0fr, Licutenant Hinton and Lieutenant Farâ€" rello to the railroad it was about 8.30 at night when I arrived at Mattice.
