indemnities to her enemies, it means
that her enemies will have to trade
with her far more than they did be-
fore the war. If the impoverished
workers of Germany are to make
wealth to pay, then there must be
customers for their work. These can
only be found among allies. VIII they
want to encourage trade with her,
while their own mills and workmen
are depressed and perhaps idle? Will
those of the allies who have been pro-
tectionist before notably Russia, be-
come free trade in order that German
workers may produce profits to pay
indemnity?
"Writers who have studied the sub
ject are agreed that a nation which
proves victorious in war may with
profit and advantage impose a money
indemnity on the vanquished only I'M
der very exceptional circumstances,
and three conditions are requisite: the
nation paying the indemnity must be
very wealthy; it must be immeasur-
ably weaker in military strength than
the victor; and, the war must be Of
short duration.
'There is one possible way, how
ever, in which the equivalent of ar
: indemnity might figure in the allies
peace terms. In this latest and great
est war new and astonishing methods
of warfare and action have been wide
| ly introduced, old traditions and con.
the winds. May it not be so after
the war that new proposals for peace
will be put forward? For instance
why not require Germany to supply
so many tons of steel, cement, timber
stone, bricks, for rebuilding devastat
ed Belgium? Why not agree to trad
ing conventions that would allow thu
allies the benefit of mutual trade ant
commerce Why not get certain ad
Ivantages over land rates between tn,
west of Europe and Russia across
Germany? And other similar conces
sions will readily occur. The objec
of these would not be, like that o
an indemnity, to disarm and weake,
the vanquished; but it would be pos
sible policy to arrange trade or serv
. ices on terms which would obviousl,
be advantageous to the victors. Tn
possibilities of civilization are not ex
hausted, even if crushing indemnit
is in the nature of events out of tn

are making profit of nearly twelve
per cent on the capital invested and

The highest profits, the report says,

Gainesville, Dec. 26.-Reports from

age cleared of these distractions is
larger than ever before in any prev
