OUR POSITION.
(Boston Record.)

If We are unprepared in military and naval sense, We evidently are equally unprepared-and thank God for it.-to cope with German diplo- macy on an equal footing; and for the very simple reason that we, in our administration's futile effort at par ley and persuasion, are using weapons of mendaciousness, trickery corrup- ton. What does the case Of Dumba mean but that? What else do We read in the efforts to disorganize Am erican shops-the result of which would be not merely to check the export of munitions. but would be to precipitate industrial disorder and probable violence as well? In this ex- tremity of having no weapons of de- ceit, would 1t not be better to sus- pend diplomatic relations with those Teutonic governments which exalt those diplomatic resources which are not exercised or honored in the Uni ted States of America?

 This little incident was related to the writer by Daniel F'rohman and it authenticates the oft printed stories that Miss Mary Pickford receives a weekly salary of $2,000, fifty two weeks of the year. But Miss Pick ford's salary is unique in the motion picture industry. Her earning capa- city and tremendous following can only be compared with that of Maude Adams. For she Is indeed the Maude Adams of the film.

Monetary Times.)


 A year of war has cost Canada s9O, . 100000. IL Is costing Canada $500, 900 al day. The total war expenditure up 10 July 3l, or practically twelve months after war, was declared on August last year, was $S1, ,oOO. The ratio of expense is going up all the time as the Dominion places more and more troops in the field. Almost the whole expenditure is military in character. The pay of the troops alone costs little less than $1oO.OOe per day. Of the $90,000,000 which constitutes the total expense of the war so far, s50.o0o,000 was voted at the. special August session of parliament last year and $40,00O,000 came out of the war appropriation of s1oo,O00,OOO made at the last session. and which is being borrowed In England. Besides pro- Viding for the direct war expenditures, the minister of finance had to increase the revenues, which were falling as a result of the war, and for that pur- pose imposed extra tariff and direct taxation.

 What, then. are the real salaries paid to movie actors and actresses?
 With the exception of Mary Pick ford, Charles Chaplin and possibly Marguerite Clarke, there is no film star in America who receives more than s750 week as salary. Yet dog ems of legitimate and vaudeville stars ern that amount in the aggregate Recognized film favorites like Clara Kimball Young, Florence Lawrence. Blanche Sweet. Norma Philips, Anita Stewart and Ruth Stonehouse, re- ceive from $2oO to $500 week This is the weekly salary of Clara Kim ball Young. who ranks second only to Mary Pickford in popularity. When
 it comes to male film stars, their sal aries are considerably less. From $l00 to s400 is the weekly salary for Francis X. Cushman, Arthur Johnson. Maurice Costello and Carlyle Black well and King Baggott
