Results of the recent sale of Red
| Cross seals and awards in the prize
contest have just been announced by
! the Washington Association for the
Prevention and Relief of Tubercu-

wide sale was conducted. All rec
ords were broken, the total number
of seals sold being 9S1,758, COM
pared with 59S,7S7 in 1913, the best
record up to that time. The anti
tuberculosis league. and all cooper
ating agencies are jubilant over the
result and several aggressive local
campaigns are being planned to Sc
cure either visiting tuberculosis
nurse or a sanitarium.

LAND PROFITS TO PAY WAR
DEBTS.

"A group Of Englishmen, constltutill
an empire resources committee Il
credited with a spectacular plan FOL
paying of the British war debt. 1t Il
proposed that the British government
shall go into the real estate bushes.
on a huge scale, and discharge that
stupendous obligation by means o.
the profits made in developing land
areas in the outlying parts of the EN-
pire.
Several millions OF arabic land, for
instance, are to be purchased in Can
ada, from the Dominion government
to be paid for in yearly installments
OF cash. The Dominion would use
that cash ii developing the land i'm
mediately. Il would be opened to set.
Element and sold at a big advance, the
proceeds going to the imperial gov
erHment. 1t is estimated that $2.C2J,-
00Q,0Gt might be made in this way in
Canada aione.
AT first blush the project looks ato-
rian. But In view Of what the various
belligerent powers have accomplished
In the way of state enterprise since
the war began, It's rash to pronounce
any scheme impossible.
Certainly billions have been made
In real estate development in Canada.
Australia, South Africa and other
British possessions, as they have in
this country. Billions more will be
made within decade. The only ques-
ton ID, who shall do the work anu
who shall reap the reward? Hereto
fore the profit has gone to the private
investor and speculator. There's no
reason why the government shouldn't
do the developing, and do it better
than private companies have done.
And what's to prevent the govern
rrlent taking the profit II 1t does the
work?
But the mere prospect OF such
radical step next door Is enough to
friklten our own real estate opera
tors, already harassed by fear OF the
single tax. The companies engaged
In developing new tracts in our own
West would probably condemn the
Canadian venture as downright "con-
hscation."
