the general total of voluntary Civ
ing for war purposes in England must
have been something without prece-
dent in that country's history"
An interesting feature of the work
of the British Red Cross, shown in
the preliminary figures. is the low
cost of administration. In 1915, this
cost was less than 3 per cent and 1t
fell progressively until, in 1918, 1t was
about l n per cent.
Contributions to the American Red
Cross from the date of the entry of
the United States into the war, April
6. 1917, to the present are roughly
estimated at about s350,000,000. This
amount was raised mainly in two do
nation drives which brought in
$106, 100000 and s1S0,O0o,000, respec-
lively, and two membership drives"
in which 100000 membership sig
natures with a minimum of 81 each

japan to Start Tinmaking.

TOXIC, May Correspondence of
the Associated Press).-In view of
the present shortage of tin plate as a
result of the insufficient supply from
abroad. the government iron foundry
at Yawata, Kyushu, will shortly start
the manufacture of this metal.
In 1915 the United States. the prin-
cipal exporter, supplied from $4,000 to
$4,000 pounds OF tin plate to Japan
and in 1917 about $4,000 pounds.
Though the supply from abroad will
possibly become greater, it will not be
enough to satisfy the enormous de-
mand in Japan.

Mystery in Situation.

Despite these seemingly significant
Indications, however. the official Ger
man attitude has not yielded on the
original decision concerning the "im-
possibility of signing a brutal and
dictated peace" No inclination has
been revealed by Scheidemann. Ebert,
Erzberger, Giesberts or any of a score
of government men to twist his def
mite. official anti-signing utterances
into weakened antiquities. How the
present government can do deliber-
ately something it swore deliberately
it would not do-namely, sign the
peace terms as they stands mys-
terry which only the coming week will
solve.
In the entire situation only one
factor is evident. This is that Ger
many has no desire for resuming the
war. The menace of German armies
through the formation Of volunteer
corps under Herr Noske for the pur-
pose of marching against the en-
tente is a pathetic and childish bug
aboo.
Lamentable Results.
Individual officers have made at
tempts to sound out the feeling of
soldiers under their command con-
corning returning to the western
front" with lamentable results. The
consensus of opinion of the working
classes is that it would be fatal to
the irresponsible aspirations of Ger
man junkerdom.
While Germany is marking time
and waiting for the results of Count
Won Brockdorff- Rantzaus counter
peace proposals the German political
factions are strengthening them
selves for the political upheaval
which the final stand of the present
Ebert government seems bound to bring.
