In fine. this nation has little call
to bust itself over some one going
through waters of the war zone and
getting shot up or drowned. The man
who does it knows that he is taking
the largest kind OF chances. and to
prevent breaches of international law
in times of war and in the war zones
and tributary ountry, is a thing that
never was and probably never will be
accomplished. War is Hell" In more
respects than one, and the thing it
always does is to license outlawry on
land and freebooting at sea. When a
vessel is sunk it may be part of a
deliberate plot to embroil another ma
ton. At any rate 1t is better for us
to keep our shirts on than to catch
cold.

One of the most effective safeguards
to this nation, and one which at the
same time should serve as a lesson
to it, is the broke condition of the
powers at war. Almost hopelessly en-
tagled in the net of financial endebted-
ness, the end of hostilities must come
through that condition alone. within
the year. So far this country has
profited by their enforced losses, but,
by allowing itself to become embroiled
it could very soon reach their finan-
cial level.

morrow will say:
Immense business, extraordinary
activity in industry, more demand for
money, remarkably good connections
heavy railway traffic and noteworthy
strength in prices, commingle with,
and incidentally seemingly outweigh
such factors as disturbed internation-
al relations, evidences Of friction in
the field Of labor, an irregular crop
situation and clear signs of high cost
holding UP some building projects
without however, reducing the total
quantity of money expended for con-
struction work. But after all, bank
clearings, commercial mortality re-
turns expenditures for structures, and
even strikes merely point TO sustained
superabundant activity in trade and
industry. Weekly bank clearings s5,-
