SOCIALISM.

Democracy and autocracy go strangely hand in hand the war drama unros In every belligerent nation there has been notable leveng of ranks 'Aristocracy middle class, factory peasants fight by side with a comradeshp hitherto unknown. There similar fraternzing among civilians Everywhere social distinctions melting away And the governments coming all classes. poor learned or ignorant with the evenhanded justice. Every man whether prince beggar. is made to do his bit"
 But there's not much personal freedom in all this the democracy of common obedience. The individual is fitted into his place do his work great national scheme. And him is government stead fly growing power. The irresistible tendency in every warning country is toward a dictatorship.

WAR SUhMAR

Russian and Rumanian troops now seemingly are at point where they either must make a stand or cross the Danube into southwest Bessarabia or into Moldayia.
 Berlin says that in Dobrudia the Russians have retreated, although the Teutonic allies are advancing toward the lower Danube.
 Berlin also announces the capture of more than thousand Russians and Rumanians and quantities of provi- sions No mention is made by Berlin of the advance in Moldayia. In the Carpathians the Russians and Teutons continue fighting but with no great victories falling to either side.
 Berlin records attacks favorable to Turks and Buigarians in the Struma region of the Macedonian front. In the Verdun sector the French and the Germans Tuesday fought spirited artillery dueIs, especially near Bezon- yaux. the Caurieres wood and Cham brettes. Reciprocal bombardments took place along the British front in France and alons the line in Belgium.

PRICE FIXING.

Governmental price-fxing is not idea. Some student of history has raked edct of the Roman Emperor Diocletian. issued sixteen centuries which sounds wonderfully modern.
 The emperor complained that ''in the sale of wares which exchanged in the market dealt with in the daily business of the cities. exorbitant tendency in prices has spread such extent that the unbrided desire plunderng is held in check neither by abun dance by seasons of plenty" He goes rebuke 'the raging which, without regard for humanity by leaps and bounds will say to year. month month day day, but almost from hour minute minute" until the welfare of the people cannot tolerate this mad license"
 He declared himself obliged. in the interest of pee ple and that justice is done. According y prices 500 specified articles and for any producer dealer sell the those prices
 But alas for good inentions Docetian with all his power couldn't put it over There and bloodsed The dealers than sell at the prices stipulated withheld their goods until the people willing to pay anything. and the law to be repealed

ASQU|TH STRONGLY OPPOSED TO PEACE

Lloyd-George upon his access sion to the highest and most import ant office in the service of the crown. made brief but pointed reference to the question of peace.
 The country" he said, "has just received some so-called peace pro posals from Germany True, these proposals are wrapped mp with the ia miliar dialect of Prussian arrogance. But how comes it after two years of war that q power which professes it. self conscious of the military super iority and ultimate victory begins to whisper-nay, even to shout 50 that all the world can hcar-thc word peace?

ASShILs FRENCH CABINET AS
 p|LATORY
Senator Berenger Attacks the Army Staff, and French Di- plomacy, and Cites Greecl- an Blunder.
CRy Review Leased Wirel

PARIS, Dec 19.-Henry BerenSer'
 senator for Guadeloupe, today in the senate, accused the cabinet Of weak ness and dilatoriness. The senator said the new ministry had brought about only a change in personel. rms was shown in the way in which the war was being directed-the French had been unable to drive the Germans beyond the frontier. The speaker then reproached the ministry with defects in the organization of economic life and charged that there had been lack of organization in the production of war material. He then attacked French diplomacy, to which he imputed as a result the recent events in Athens.
 Do not think that your past war record said M. Berenger, addressing Premier Briand, gives us sufficient assurance for the future"
 M. Briand in replying deprecated reproacnes against the government at this grave period, because the men in the trenches have to work with the necessary freedom, uninterrupted con fidence at home and for their actions abroad and our allies must not be aI- low ed to think that our government is under suspicion and the menace or in- terpellation.
 'l am ready to make way at any time, for anyone more worthy than l. LdC 1 ask you with the system em- ployed up tO this time what govern ment could resist. As for me 1 have gone more than A times before the committees leach committee composed of forty four members) ana lately was detained ten entire days in secret ses- sions of the chambers. l ask you, un. der these conditions, how a president of cabinet can be French war presi- dent? When You know the facts of the terrible task to which am bound, then. you will judge me and condemn me if you think fit"
 NJ. Briand alluded to the latest { French victory at Verdun. which evok- ed much applause. Referring to the general milrary situation. the premier continued:
 "li we have not broken through, neither have the Germans broken through after forty years of prepara- ton, even though it might have been ] thought they would triumph after hay | ing invaded Belgium. Fortunately trench soldiers, nearly alone at tha. time, blocked the way and said no thoroughfare'. The government from the beginning did it's duty in permit ; ting our allies to organize"
 The premier sketched what Russia and Italy had done and alluded. to joint efforts that had been for unity of action. The government thinks" said NJ. Briand. it has given proof of all required energy. But if the senate doubts this, let any one take the stand with documents and we will reply" | NJ. Berenger arose and put several questions to the premier but they were { not developed.

HOW LONG


 Germany has peace but the Allies will not have "a German peace" The goes Peace recedes like the rainbow's end The conflict may end next year. it may last many years No knows.
 It was the common belief before this that conflict on anywhere so big scale could not last than year. because the powers would go bankrupt. Yet we see France which probably felt the financial burden more any other important beigerent except Austria Hungary with debt already over s14OOO0OOOOe in such financial condition that spokesman for the ment says: France has paid when due every debt in and in spite of the discrepancy between appropriations receipts need have anxiety for the future
 The refusal of the Allies consider Germanys peace proposals crownng proof that they far from bank rupcy And there is to that Germany herself spite efforts is anywhere the end of her All the beligerents waging literally regardless of expense Their of expenditure steadily increase They utterly stopped counting the financial cost acting as if their resources were limless
 Of course, their wealth and credit imitess Some time. surely their financial power will be ex hausted. But when? Nobody ventures any pro phesy All prophecies have proved vain If there any conclusion to the drawn from the last a half years, it is that when a conflict of govern but of nations, this is the combatants find the carrying fight indefinitely There may a time when there will less war material, less cash and less credit But if the scope fighting restricted need the fighters stop en- tirely?
 The of argument is heard reg garding the human cost The sacrifices have been appalling The Germans insist that the Allies had 15OOOOOO killed, wounded captured But there is no evidence of exhaustion of man-power" Belgium and Serbia still have armies in the field, after being supposedly stroyed"
 It was believed that Germanys reserves were used up and Germany proceeded to crush Rumania while show ing sufficient strength every front hold back enemies AustraH Hungry, apparently collapse last spring. today looks strong again
 is pointed that nearly all the beigerents heavy as their losses are have nearly enough coming military age every year balance their permanent losses Of course, we should deduct old men like wise passing beyond military even then there IS such large annual addition troops that all talk Of early exhaustion idle There are intelligent observers who insist that the go on for ten years, fifteen years twenty years so far as man. power is concerned
 But what of the human spirit becoming exhausted? It answered that nations become habituated to warfare that seem the natural thing The bclrger ents to be sure, would like to quit But they not quit And how much more cheerully they fight and sacrifice than we should have supposed, bereavement comes to mean less and less where nearly every family has lost father Everything is readjusted to war basis War IS the occupation of whole peoples col iectively and individually. Peace comes to be the un- familiar thing And they fight on and on
