Laws Endorsement

Andrew Bonar Law, in endorsing this
statement, said:
Our sole consideration is what will
be best for finishing the war success
fully"
Not for many years has political
transformation so overwhelmed the
country with surprise. Only a week
ago Premier Asquith said in the House
Of Commons that there was no thought
of reconstruction of the ministry. The
rapid pressure Of events both abroad
and at home has driven the govern
ment to a change Of heart and brought
together the elder statesmen" to deal
with a situation charged with critical
elements. The events abroad have been
the severe reverses Of the Russian ar
mics, which may be followed by more
powerful German opposition to the al
lies lines in France and Belgium and
the slow progress Of the operations

Three Hours
Summing up
The Case OF
Roosevelt

Il Syracuse, N. T., May 19.-John NJ. Bow
gers, chief counsel for Theodore Roose-
welt in the trial of William Barnes suit
s1or libel, spent three hours today in sum-
yaning up for the benefit of the jury the
ease of the defence. Near the conclu-
sion Of his address he asserted that the
action brought by the former chairman
of the Republican state committee was a
spurposed act of the machine to destroy
Col. Roosevelts usefulness.
4 Mr.. Bowers used up much more time
than had been allowed him. For that
reason the summing up of the case of
the plaintiff was postponed until tomor-
sfow morning.
William NJ. Twins, chief counsel for Mr..
Barnes. said tonight that he might con-
sclude within an hour.

Storing Up Financial Energy.

The country's visible foreign trade bal
ance for the last three months was S411,-
100000. In an ordinary year there would
be set off against this an invisible balance
of considerable proportions. Now the in
visible drain is down to the minimum. The
expenditures of American tourists in Eu-
rope were cut by the war. Tens of thou
sands of aliens went home to perform
military service. and the foreign popula-
ton here is putting its money into the
postal savings banks and other savings
institutions instead of sending it back
home Europe is no longer buying our
securities. On the contrary, it is selling
us what it bought from US at far higher
prices than those now current
1t is estimated in Washington that our
floating debt to Europe has already been
wiped out and that we are fast accumu-
lating big credits in all the European
money centres. We have been able to lend
money to foreign governments without
strain because we are simply investing the
balances of trade now rapidly accruing.
The United States, even in its most pros
porous years of foreign trade. has re-
manned debtor nation. We have looked
abroad for capital and sought our recrea-
ton abroad. We are now getting out of
the war new impulse to financial self
dependence and independence,
The longer the war lasts the more firmly
shall we establish ourselves as nation
able to use its capital for the purpose Of
advancing its interests abroad South
America has been cut off from US CONNER
cially because it was dependent, as we were,
on European bankers. We can hereafter

Postpone the Olympic Games for
Sports Sake.

Among the many cogent reasons why
postponement of the Olympic games,
scheduled for 1916 in Berlin, seems wise
and appropriate is that important one in
volving good craftsmanship. 1t is the one
which shoIld appeal most strongly to the
United States.
In all the modern Olympic meetings so
far this country has come out victor over
the rest of the world by a decided mar
gin. Just now her most dangerous ath-
letic competitors are plunged in war, in
conceivably costly TO the life and limb of
their young manhood to say nothing Of
its financial drain. In the mean time the
United States is preserving intact all her
athletic material and gaining in wealth.
What sort 0 an international meet would
that be in which one nation, great. strong
and without impairment of vitality. pit
ted herself against cripples?
Without attempting to deal with the
delicate diplomatic situation arising from
the German desire to hold the games as
planned. the opposition to such a sugges-
ton on the part of other belligcrcnts, the
counter suggestions for neutral setting
and the present unwillingness of enemies
to compete against one another, the Amer
lean Amateur Athletic Union might well
take the stand that this country could not
in justice both to them and to herself, en-,
gage her advcrsares at disadvantage
By 1920, unless the war persists for a
longer period than most can foresce. the
belligerents will have had an opportunity
to recover both their strength and their
tempers. Five years is not too long to
wait for real contest, on approximately
equal terms, in an atmosphere of interna-
tional amity.
