Great Britain has settled the buying
of the Chilean battle ships, out of
hand. When wars are threatening in
various parts of the world, battleships
are sought for. On the eve of the
war with Spain, the United States pick
ed up ship or two. On the eve of
war with China, Japan bought a fine
vessel from Chile. In fact it seems to
be a profitable investment for a small
power to have "A man of war or two

If the Organic Act gets all the amend
ments proposed, it will read almost en-
tirely as a new act. 1t seems almost
impossible to draw up a perfect law.
Even the best legal minds are apt to
err. No wonder our County Act, which
is very voluminous, may prove to
have so many flaws. One is almost
tempted to think that lawyers make
laws in order to attack them in some
vulnerable point.
