THE PEACE AIMS

President Wilson's statement of our
peace aims may not bring an immediate
end of the war, nevertheless, it will both
stimulate and facilitate negotiations to that
end, when the mind of Germany realizes
the inevitable and better understands the
real objects of the Allies. This message
is an historic document of the highest i'm
portance. 1t is the clearest and strong
est statement of any hithero put out by the
Allied Governments says the Weekly Fl
nancial Review 1t is based on simple
justice throughout. it is remarkable for the
unsefish tone that permeates the message
from the beginning to end and will accom-
pish much towards clarifying the issues
crystalzino Allied opinions and hearten-
mo the Allied cause and operations. While
the immediate outlook for peace is poor,
there is no doubt that this clear-cut enrn-
citation of the Allied terms, and their de
termination to attain them. will ultimately
''"eten ncace: the main ohsacle to that end
being the ignorance Of large part of Cor
MANY as to the real purpose of the Allies
as well rs d belief that they seek the disco
luton OF GERMANY and dictation Of her in
terna1 affairs which is absolutely false.

MUST GO ON

In his speech before the trades unions
of Great Britain, in which strong distrust
OF Germany's honesty was evinced David
Lloyd George declared that the People
must either go on or go under the address
following closely upon the passage by the
house of commons of the man power bill
to strengthen the fighting forces.
The primary object OF the proposed mill
tary service bill is TO obtain reinforcements
for the army by releasing very large num-
Der of young and fit now doing civilian
work in national and semi-national capaci-
ties at home This means the cancellation
of certificates OF exemption that these men
obtained because of their employment in
munition works and other war industries
A majority OF the trades union leaders
virtually have agreed to cooperate with the
government in this combing out process.
The shop stewards of the engineering and
shipbuilding industries. on the other hand,
have demanded immediate CONSUMPTION OF
wealth and adequate provisions for war

INDUSTRIAL OUTLOOK

The strength of the industrials in the Sc
curity markets is frequently striking, and
much confidence is expressed in the future
Of those based on metal products. 1h1S
confidence is founded upon the expectation
Of large demands for steel and copper; war
or no war. If war continues SO Will the
demand for munitions, which IS taxing the
output to the limit If peace comes, then
Europe will be a heavy buyer for recon
structions purposes for years to come, ant
the home demand will be divide between
the railroads and longdeferrcd building
enterprises, says the Clews report Among
those best informed there are confident
expectations regarding the export trade.
We are now for away the bigges purchaser
Of steel products in the world; and Great
Britain may com in a goo scond, but
will be too much occupied in caring for her
own markets to seek new ones very vigor-
ously. Germany will make intense efforts
to recover lost ground. but for obvious
reasons will be handicapped for a long
period: Herr Balm. one of her foremost
ndustrais leaders, having openly admitted
his situation. Another factor which atrac-
ted attention to the industrial is our strong
financial position the results of large accu-
mutations Of profits after several abnormal
wears These Accommodations have not been
distributed as dividends; but arc being
held as reserves against emergencies, when
not actually engaged in enlargments and
new enterprises SO come peace or come
war the industrial outlook is considered
particularly favorable These week fur
ther encouragement was afforded by the
decision of the Supreme Court regarding
stock dividends.
