Aiming of Chilli

Though Chill maintains neutrality in
relation to the great war, she pursues
her policy of increase Of ornaments.
Notwithstanding Count Won Luxburg's
activity in cultivating friendly relations
between the German and CHILEAN govern
ments, there is no apparent ground for
doubt of the neutrality of Chilli, or for
suspicion of any wrong motive behind
the building up Of her military and naval
power. II may seem strange that in
present circumstances she should receive
airplanes and submarines from the Brit
ish government, as if she had taken the
side of the allies. Were there any Sc
crecy about the transaction it would ex-
cite surprise and provoke inquiry. But
| it is really matter of business necessi-
tated by the war,
In 1914 two destroyers were under con-
struction in British shipyards for Chilli.
She agreed to their being taken over
by the British government. These 80
knot vessels, the Broke and the Faux
ner, have figured prominently in several
sharp engagements. There was also
dreadnought being built for the Gillian
navy in British yard. She is the Can
ada, 23-knot ship with 10 l4-inch
guns, and in the fight off the Jutland
coast she proved the excellence Of Chill.
ian specifications. Chill is being repaid
for her ships. The admiralty recently
agreed to the transfer to her of six sub
marines which were being built in the
United States for the British navy. And
now, as she wishes to form an efficient
flying force, the admiralty has given her
20 fully equipped airplanes.
Britain and Chill have always been
good friends. Their commercial relations
are close, especially because of the large
amount of British capital employed in
the nitrate of soda industry. The value
of the Gillian imports from the United
Kingdom in 1916 was 500, 10000. This,
however, is far below the value of Chili's
! imports from the United States The
amount in the fiscal year 1917 was $44,-
| $4,000, and in the next IL months the
value rose to $63 500 900. This increase
| is partly due to the exclusion of Ger
many. For one thing before the war
| she dominated the market for electrical
goods. America has stepped in and made
| big gains. The market should now be
held. Our department of commerce right
| ly describes Chill as country where
the natural resources and the win of the
people make for progressive development
along industrial and manufacturing lines,
which means steadily growing demand
for power. Commercial and naval
strength may well go hand in hand.
Chilli profted by her preparedness in
1921, and means TO be always ready.

The matter of complaint against

administrator for Vermont, at Mont

1t appeared that Mr.. Wallis for sew

ing groceries and -four in large auanti-
ties from wholesalers; that some time
last fall and before the flour regulations
went into effect he bought quite large
quantity of -four, two barrels Of which
he still had on hand. II also appeared
that during the last days of May he had
received from some dealer 100 pounds of
sugar, which was much in excess of what
he was entitled to.
After full hearing and in considera

he had not Intentionally violated any OF

them in the future, il was decided that
| If he would turn over to the local food
administrator all the surplus -four and

would go no farther. This he agreed to
do, and the decision was made subject to
his faithful conformity to the rules and
