ober .. 1sl4. Nearly 100, 200 canas
dian soldiers have since gone over
sea and during the past ten months
they have poured across the ocean
at the rate OF more than 1000 per
week. Our authorized force II now
$50. 900 and more than 200, 900 are
already under armR
Has our national spirit been ade-
quately responsive to the nations
needs? For courage and devotion
point to the Canadian at Ypres, at
Festubert at Givenchy. For self
sacrifice, Il see the women yielding
their dearest at the country's call
and consecrating their lives to all
missions Of mercy. For the bounti-
lful generosity Of our people need
but mention $4,000, 600 for the Pat
riottc Fund, $4,000, 900 for the Brit
ish Red Cross Society. $3.50 DO. 900 for
our own Red Gross and kindred So
cieties, more than 50 900, 900 for the
starving and destitute In Belgium. at
least S3.000,000 In other patriotic
contributions from provinces and
individuals, $5,00o,000 in food pro-
ducts and other supplies useful for
war purposes placed by the, dominion
and the provincesTat the disposal OF
the British government. Men OF
great financial experience believed
that subscriptions by the public at
large to the recent war loan of $780,
10000 would probably reach $1o,-
100000 and could not exceed $15.-
100000. The public added $40, 000.-
s00v to the $4,000, 900 and the total
subscriptions ran closefto $40 ,0O0.-
900.
Il have spoken OF all these things
IN order that you may truly compre-
mend what our course has been In
this war. and that you may perhaps
believe that Canada has made her
loyalty living principle In q Amer
way than ever before. And our em-
pire seems to US something greater
than 1t was a year ago; when mighty
armies from the dominion and DEEPEN
denotes arrayed themselves In its
battleline, new and impressive
epoch in its history. was marked.
These pregnant events have already
given birth to new order. It is
realized that the great policies and
questions which concern and govern
the issues of peace and war cannot
In future be assumed by the people
OF the British Islands alone.
Realizing to the full the tragedy
OF this war we in Canada pray that
the whirring loom OF time may weave
the mighty events OF the next twelve
months into an abiding peace. But
there is with US the most intense
conviction that the cause for which
we fight does truly concern the free
dom Of the world and that there can
be no enduring peace until it fully
prevails. Interviewer with this con-
yiction Is IAN equally intense and un-
alterable determination to spare no
effort and shrink from no sacrifice
necessary to make SO great a cause
triumphant. Finally we have faith
that this war herads not the dies
irae' but the regeneration of our ciyi-
lization. founded as 1t is upon SO
many centuries of aspiration. en-
Ideavor and sacrifice; faith also that
humanity's struggle against. the EN-
thronement Of force above right viii

HOLLAND NOT TO
PAY IN KIND FOR
GERMANART|CLES
Netherlands Government Full
fills Agreement With England.
by Prohibiting Export of
Food, Copper etc,

Amsterdam. Holland, April "a
The Dutch government has refused
TO allow potatoes. copper and other
articles much needed in Germany. to
be used In payment for German man
featured products.
Holland sometime ago reached an
agreement with Great Britain In the
matter OF contraband by which all ar
ticlcs were permitted 70 enter Hol-
land freely on the assurance of the
Dutch government that their ex-
port to Germany would be prohibits
ed
When Germany first decided to
conserve its copper an order was
published that an equivalent weleht
for all copper used should be re-
turned to Germany in the case Of
machinery exported Most of lIol-
lands steam. gas and electric engines
and machinery are made in Ger
many, so this arrangement would
have enabled German machine works
to ill foreign orders without dimin-
ishing the national supply of cop
per.
Could Demand Payment In Kind.
This order was hardly cold, how
ever before Germany demanded that
the full value of the manufactured
article should be paid In any material
the German government should spe-
city at the market rate Of the coun-
try from which it came.
II piece OF machinery reported
from Germany contained two tons
of copper il might have to be paid
for by fifty tons of copper, or a clear
addition of forty-eight tons to Ger
many's copper supply. Moreover the
raw material had TO be paid for in
advance SO that the German manu-l
facturer could well afford to break
his contract and sell the copper to
the government at fat profit and
then write an apologize letter to the
Dutch buyer explaining that the
copper had been Communicated and
Offering to reimburse him at the
current price of copper in Holland.
Potatoes for Steel Plates.
Recently Dutch ship-buildng
firm was notified by a German firm
that II certain steel plates contracted
for were to be delivered they would /
have to be paid for in advance By a
specified number of tons of potatoes,
This the firm could not agree to carry |
out. so the plates were not delivered
German factories are so busy with
