WHAT ENGLISH WOMEN ARE DOING

The Statement of Winston Churchill minister of
munitions for Great Britain to the house of commons
yesterday simply astounding It shows the tremendous
resources OF the British and also how the English
are doing their bit" They have made more than nine
enths Of the output of Shells and this output has made
good all those expended in nearly 40 day battle It is
admitted that during this battle the British lost 1000
cannon and perhaps 5000 machine guns but all these
losses have been made good and the British have more
Servlceahe guns than at the beginning of the battle
England is now able to make more guns more cannon.
more munitions and more anything else she needs, in
month than she was able to make during the first wear of
the war This is shown forcby in Churchs statement
dS to alrplanes. He said: "We are making more air
planes in week than during the whole of 1914 more in
quarter than during the year 1916" While he does not
say So his statement to the shells shows that English
are behind and responsible for most of this great
increase in production and ability to produce The work
OF the English women has discounted all such efforts as
the suffragees militant made for the militant women of
England an VINO are helping win the war; have the right
of suffrage and any other that it is possible for citizen
to have.

MAY FORCE HOLLAND TO SUBMERGE

With German cavalry on the Dutch border it is quite
probable the ravening Prussian beast will fasten his
fangs in the throat of Holland just he did in that of
Belgian. He is already declaring the lambs shadow is
interfering with him although the lamb has pointed out
that the shadow points in the other direction and pre-
pared to jump and punish him for having a shadow
anyway AT the time each country has withdrawn
its ministers and are as far at the outs as they can be
without being openly at war; Holland has tried to play
fair but the Prssian beast does want fair play but
stacked deck and the deal In other words Germany
wants the privilege Of sending munitions and sup
plies through Dutch territory to her troops in Belgium
and also to have port on the Holland coast if Ostend
and Zeebugge are out Of business Holland could put up
hard fight and give Germany great worrying if she
willing to make the sacrifice and submerge' It may
be she will do this for apparently the only safe place for
her at this time is at the bottom of the sea-
