LEAGUE OF NATTONS--H
IS IT TO BE ENFORCED?

Nevertheless, am inclined to think
that the first great step toward a
League of Nations should be Limitation
Of armaments.
Then there is the question Of the
economic weapons possessed by various
nations, weapons as powerful and as
real, even if less tangible. than the mill
tary and naval arm. 1t has already
been pointed out that the economic
weapon might be one Of the most pow.
erful and effective means of enforcing
the decisions of the League of Nations
against any one nation which might be
tempted to break the bounds.
Il have pointed out all these diff
cultles, not with an idea of discourag-
ing or opposing the idea of League or
Nations, but to show that in my opin.
ion, it will be impossible TO work out
the idea if any power or powers enter
on the attempt with a feeling OF pre-
dominance, aggression, or anything but
a sincere desire to be rid of the evil OF
bloated armaments and that militarist
organization which leads to aggression.
Whatever happens, there ought to
be n good nucleus for the future League
Of Nations in the continued and ex.
panded friendship Of those countries
now fighting together the course OF the
entente.

| believe in the union today OF the
Anglo Saxon races, and in the fact that

alliance and friendships Of this war as
a matter for which every member Of
the entente ought to strive with every
power. Nobody can contemplate with.

Rise of American Raisin

Consul Report: Dried fruit mer-

crease in the acceptance given to
American raisins over those i'm
ported from Spain, which formerly
had almost monopoly of the Bra
lillian market. While it is quite true
that raisins are regarded by the
majority of the people (who earn
low wages) as an imported luxury
quite beyond their means, and
while raisins are not much in cook
ing, but rather as a sweet, there is
a good demand for them, particu-
larly for Sultanas, seedleSs types,
and those which come in large clus-
terS.
