 This compensation, says the corre- spondent, possibly may be the cession of certain territory along the Belgian frontier owned by Holland since 1899. perhaps the southern part of Dutch Linburg, the population of which re- zion is claimed to be principally Bel. gian.

 Any sudden wholesale removal of restrictions on industry, capital, cred t and foreign trade would be dang erous and can hardly be contemplat- I'd Leading finauciers and business men have strongly urged ptudenco In this lifting of war restrictions in the Interest Of souadness and stability. However t is to bo borne in m.nd that some groups and officials are advocating the perpetlation of yari ous existing war t.ne restrictions in the name Of social reform Bureau crats and jobhc,dcrs easily find the- ories to cover !heir dislike of change and their love Of power and patron age
 On this subject Prof Carver of university noted economist. writes warmingly He calls attention to tne fact that there is now an lluberal movement in an liberal countries to make the extension of the authority of the otiiceholder permanent" re- vlve such medieval practices as gov ernmenial price fiMne and general ly hamper industry and trade.
