TIMES BETTER HERE THAN ELSEWHERE

It does not make conditions easier to bear in the United States to know that we are having better times than people of any other section of the world save in the Scandinavian coun
 tries but it serves to explain why they as good as they have been at other times in this country The Scandinavian countries are particularly prosperous because they filed refugees from the war zones who paying rent to all who accommodations for hire and consuming local products and the wares of the local merchants These countries also ad vantageousy situated for trade with Germany uaband In less marked similar conditions are pre- vang in Spain Italy and Switzerland but every place else in industrial paralysis.
 However the forces work that will produce such prosperity in the United States within the next few years that the country has never experienced before There might not be been at different times the past but the wheels of industry and commerce will revove as they have never done in the past

 Every Itt while the 'ngog chorus attempts to create stampede in behalf of greater military establishment in the United States The demand always made in the name of er- manent peace However to the present time each effort has fallen fiat During the part of last month and the first of the month syndicate American newspapers conducted poll of the people the country on this subject Readers were asked to answer the questons

 An overwhelming majority the answers to the queries were
 the negative Thousands those responding to the request for expression of opinion States could not afford sacrifice influence support of the general dis armament of the world That the intention of President Wilson to smaller armies smaller navies when the time for the nations that make peace is known The force of the that he will advance in behalf of this position would be weakened accompanied by m creasing military activity by his own country.
 The Whtehorse Star pertneny upon the faacy of the contention that great armies and naes count peace The Star says:
 The present has concusvely proved the faacy of the old argument that big and nayes preserve the peace When the is the diplomats and statesmen of all nations must reaze that the only to preserve peace permanently IS by universal disarmament Nor the conquered alone but he conquerors also must dsband their standing armies
