HOW BRITAIN DOES 1T.

The Journal published. n few days
ago, an editorial on how the British
colonies are preparing to take care OF
their soldiers-and all British sol
diers, for that matter-when they
come home. Here, from the New Re
public, is the plan of tina British gov
eminent to care for unemployment:
AT this very moment the machin-
cry of rehabilitation is working
smoothly in Great Britain. The British
are making effective use of their en-
ployment exchange to find work for
their discharged men. Surplus labor
is being given three weeks notice be-
fore being discharged. For six months
thereafter the government makes an
unemployment donation of "a shil-
lings TO men and 20 shillings to wo-
men, with an additional gift for each
dependent child. output is being re-
duced by the abolition of overtime
and where necessary by a further re-
duction of the working week. The
rehabilitation lis being carried out
according to the industrial needs of
the country, in so far as these are
compatible with essential military re-
quirements.'

WE MUST HAVE FOREIGN TRADE

There is growing talk in Washing
spiciously invited to sit tight and play
a lone hand against the world as is
the United States at this time. The
idea is not only to refuse to enter into
any political alliance involving some
responsibility, but also to decline any
industrial engagements that will limit
our power for sharp international
competition.
The argument wears a smart APP
pearance, and should commend itself
to the superficial intelligence which
cherishes the old illusion that in cX-
change only one party can benefit,
as in bargain one side necessarily
gains while the other loses. This, of
course, is fallacy of the worst sort.
But such policy would assume that
the world is about to enter upon an
era of free trade. as some Vienncse
economists propose, while the indica-
tions are that the era about to be

constructed tariffs and even a partial
abandonment by Great Britain of her
free theories.
The United States especially will
need protection Of the incest fitting
sort in order to keep American in
dustries going and assure American
markets abroad and at home.
But the most difficult consideration
is markets abroad. And markets
abroad will be needed as never be-
fore, if we are to take advantage of
what the war has bestowed upon us.
A restored Europe with ability to
buy-which depends upon ability to
produce and to sel--will make us
prosperous. while debilitated Eu-
rope will leave US with no great for
eign markets. A huge prosperous
United States amid a on-prosperous
world, like a big oasis in huge des-
ert, is an economic impossihility.

CHAMP CIARK'S CANDIDACY.

1t is unofficially announced that
Champ Clark viii be a candidate for
the democratic nomination for the
presidency in 1920 Clarl; would then
be past seventy years old, and, if
elected, would be almost exactly
seventy-one when inaugurated.
Clark is a big, nrainy man. He
came very close to the nomination in
1912, having n clear majority of seven
in the national convention. but he was
unable to get the required two-thirds.
The announcement says that Will
lam Jennings Bryan the man who
betrayed Clark al Baltimore, will sup
port his candidacy in 1890. This will
add little to Clark and will subtract
much, if the Nebraskan undertakes
to assume leadership in the conven
ton.
While Champ Clarks age is against
him, his robust health is in his favor.
He also has in his favor the fact that
the state of Missouri went republican
this year. and it is absolutely essen
tal that it he carried by the demo-
Gratis if they hope to win in normal
circumstances.
OF course, it can be figured out how
the democratic party could win with
out Missouri, just as it can be figured
out how it could win without New
York state But it will have to carry
both of these states next election if
1t succeeds There will not be an
other split in the republican party by
that time, and there will be no war
then.
The chances are, however, heavily
against Clark's nomination, and he
would not be elected if nominated.
But he might stand about as good al
chance Of election as any other can
didate that could be named by his
party.

DAY OF THE AVIATOR NEAR.

The public knows little of the re
cent devices to make aviation easier
and safer. These inventions, pre-
served as war secrets. will soon be
open to the world. Something is
known, however of the staberlizel
which makes flight comparatively
safe, and something has been told OF
the perfection of wireless telephony
from airplanes.
The postponed transatlantic
flight will doubtless be undertaken in
1919, and if the first attempts arc
failures some other attempts will sue
coed. But it is now probable that
these flights will succeed from the
start.
Dispatches, some time ago, told of a
British filler who was forced, because
of engine trouble, to descend five
hundred miles west of Khartum
among people who never before had
seen a wheel on the ground, to say
nothing Of seeing wings and wheels
of machines in the air. Those people
knew absolutely nothing of modern
invention.
Near Elizabethton, New Jersey,
Thanksgiving dinner was eaten by
aviators while $500 feet above the
earth, This feat would have been i'm
possible only a short time ago
We may soon expect to hear of men
searching out the remote corners of
the earth by means of airplane trans
portation. The birdmen will soon be
able to hover over the forests of
Africa, to alight where they like in
the Himalayas and Andes. The top
of Ararat, 1900 feet above sea-level,
where Noah's ark rested after the
waters of the deluge had subsidized
would he easy for thousands of Amer
lean and European aviators.
Captain Benjamin b. Listncr says.
"the days of freight and parcel post
by airplane are rapidly coming This
doubtless is true, and within the next
decade it is not impossible that the
manufacture of air machines will be
an industry almost, if not quite, the
equal of that of automobiles.

THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS--
WHAT 1T REALLY MEANS M
BY JOSIAH L. REED,

In the constitution of the United
States there is clause which has
lost meaning for lis today, but which
was a vital matter at the time il was
written. IT reads:
Section 9. The Migration or Inn =
portation of such Persons as any of
the states now existing shall think
proper to admit, shall not be prohib-
tied by the Congress prior to the year
one thousand eighteen hundred and
eight but a tax or duty may be i'm
posed on such Importation, not ex-
ceeding ten dollars for each Person"
This clause was one of the COM
promises of the constitution. 1t was
inserted for the sake of securing the
support of certain states. The great
point about it is that It was tempor-
airy. a definite time limit was set
The idealsts secured their main
point: few wears We're of great con-
sequence to them. And at the same
time the selfish interests secured
what they wanted. Selfish interests
are apt to be short-sighted.
Fifty years later there was an
other famous bargain. 1t was known
as the Missouri Compromise, Under
this agreement Missouri was admitted
to the Union as a slave state, with the
understanding that if other states
were admitted later they were to
come in free. Here again an imme-
date concession was made to the
selfish interests for the sake of a
real gain in the long run for the un-
selfish interests.
Now the application of this idea to
the League of Nations is obvious.
Wherever narrow. selfish. provincial,
nationalistic views interfere with har-'
mony and threaten to prevent the
formation OF q League of Nations,
concessions are likely to be necessary.
The main thing is TO have their con-
