to the un ited states and prior to the advent of tho states in the war it nv7 have gone to germany charges wore free- ly made at tho time that it did reach enemy territory the second discovj cry was that in the event of future j wars the british empire wculd be in a j j bad way so far as copper was con- cerned i so the wheels began to turn british interests found a source of copper in the form of a contract with noranda then canadian interests gained con- trol of international nickel wresting it from the states through market j plays those are the two big moves which have followed the findings ofi the british chemical commission and rumor has it that there are more to come the future will bo well worth watching the leading canadians credited with controlling internation al nickel are sir

tho position which has always been taken is that tho courts have a right to order new- trials and that there is no need of tho minister of justice exorcising that authority the jarvi case however is pecu liar his caso is all over and the courts cannot reopen it he was ac cused tried convicted and served a term of imprisonment besides he was fined 200000 it was for alleged conspiracy with andrew
