A HARSH TREATY BUT JUST.

No one who has read the conditions
imposed upon Germany by the allies can
doubt for a moment that it is treaty of
victory which the conqueror presents to
the conquered. The peace proposal ear
ries little of the spirit of compromise; it
subjects Germany TO indignities, hard
ships and immense expense. 1t is far
from that negotiated peace which the
Germans fondly hoped for and which
some people among the allies expected
would be the outcome Of the war. Ger
many is virtually stripped of her army
and her navy, is forced to give up her
colonies, is Invested of some of her best
producing mineral fields, to say nothing
of relinquishing Alsace and Lorraine to
their former owner, is compelled to give
up an important port for the use of the
new Polish nation and to render her de-
lenses more or less impotent both on land
and on water. In short, Germany is,

a third rate nation as far as information
al relations are concerned and is forced
to spend great part of the national in
come in making PREPARATION to the dew
astated countries. Therefore, it is
peace Of victory which the allies are i'm
posing upon Germany
That it should be peace of victory
rather than negotiated peace brought
about after much dickering, bartering
and compromise, with Germany occupy
ing seat about the table, is the judg-
ment of a large part of the world with
out doubt. 1t would have been mon
strous perversion of justice and fairness
had Germany been permitted to exert her
baleful influence in the determining of
the various phases which are hoped to be
the basis for world peace OF perma
nenee. Germany deliberately thrust the
world into the greatest war in history
and Germany sucked the life blood of the
world just as far as she was able to do
so. Now Germany makes just restitu-
ton and is to be placed where the per-
Torrance cannot be repeated This is.
not to mean that Germany cannot de-
velop industrially and commercially.
That growth is to be expected in due
season after the incubus of the war has
been thrown off, But for the present
Germany is to hold the position of the
penitent even though the spirit of peni-
tence may be absent 1t is hard but
just peace.

trip to Trepassey after a few hours wait.
The third machine stayed on the water
all night and was discovered at daybreak
and hauled into port, the occupants Of
the plane having experienced no hard
ships in the meantime and having, in
fact, made some progress on the water
and toward port by means of the single
engine that was working. II is thrill

which, if successful, promises to revolu-

Up in the northern part Of Vermont,
Canadians are picking up Vermont farms
and settling on them in ever increasing
numbers. 1t denotes period of in
creased prosperity for the state because
most of the Canadians who become thus
interested in Vermont are good farmers
and tend to develop the value of the land.
II would be fine thing if more Cana
dams could be induced TO come into Yer
mont and take up some of the ida land
or the land which is not worked to the
limit OF its capacity.

If the German army is reduced to
$4,000 men, as reported from the Amer
lean headquarters at Coblenz, the once
proud military machine has been eifec-
tually broken up. Even in times Of
peace Germanys standing army num-
bered about double that size and had re-
serves Immediately available in case of
emergency, while in the period when
Germany was at the height of her power
in the war she no doubt had five or six
millions of men under arms How the
mighty is fallen is indicated by the fact
that the present military force is mere
skeleton Of its former self. However,
there win be no disposition on the part
of the allies to remove any sizeable part
of their armies of occupation until the
treaty is signed and Germany begins the
payment of the indemnity which is to
be demanded.

Secretary Of War Baker evidently
makes a distinction between the Amer
lean expeditionary force and the Amer
lean army of occupation, for he asserts
that the American expeditionary force
will be home by the latter part of the
summer This does not mean, of course,
that the American army of occupation
will be finished with its job of policing
the borders Of Germany by that time,
any more than the French or the British
armies of occupation will be through
with their contract there. So when Sec
rotary Baker says that the American ex-
peditionary force will be out of Europe
by September he means that all the units
not engaged in actual service with the
army of occupation will be out. The
army of occupation win stay there for a
considerable period, in all probability,
else there would not be a concerted effort
in the United States to enlist volunteers
to act as replacement troops,

OF WINNIPEG'S LABOR MEN

WINNIPEG. Manitoba. August H.
A conflict Is in progress hero be-

the general strike which took place
here in May and June, involving
labor and capital throughout the Do

A short time ago the Winnipeg
Trades and Labor Council voted to
join one big union by a vote said to
be 8,841 to 706.
AS result Of this action. the Do
minion Labor Congress cancelled the
charter of the Winnipeg Trades and
Labor Council and announced that
an effort would be made to
form a new council in Win

plan. Among the organizations which
rejected this idea of having one big
union were the railroad brotherhoods
and the American Federation Of

that the split in the labor ranks was
precipitated by the alien element and
say that the one big union organized

Ernest Robinson, secretary Of the
Winnipeg Trades and Labor Council,
has announced that the one big union

the local unions to take the place OF
those revoked by the American Fed

leaders supporting the one big union
have promised to support the move

CITES ONE FACTOR
|NC0ST OF LIVING
A Washington Commission
Man Says People Insist on
High Grade Foods.

Washington people no longer will
buy low-priced foods or food articles
that are not of the highest grade.
according to the head of one of the
cfty's largest commission firms. This,
he says. is one of the factors in the
present high cost of living.
Our firm" The Stars informant
said, receives in it's daily shipments
considerable number of cracked
eggs. These are just as fresh and
good as the uncracked ones. If used
at once. We put them up in cartons
holding a dozen, and offer them at
80 cents. But we are unable to dis
pose of them. because people demand
only the best, and seem to gauge
quality by price. The result is that
put them up in cans, freeze them and
hold them for bakery trade.
Other Instances Cited.
I'VE have on hand a number of
barrels of sauerkraut. which we
nave held in storage for some time.
Recently we offered to dispose of the
kraut for the price of the containers
and the storage charges. The heavy
wooden barrels cost us about $3.50
each. So far we have been unable
TO sell even one barrel of the kraut.
Good salt herring in our storage
rooms can't be sold because the peo-
pie who used to buy it as a cheap
and wholesome food now refuse to
touch it. We are unable to handle
what are known as No. Q potatoes,
which are the smaller potatoes grad
ed out in sorting the potatoes. They
are just as good as the large ones,
but people simply won't have them
at any price. The same is true of
fresh fish. such as small butterflsh,
small spots and the like-those who
used to buy them because they were
lower In price than the large ones
simply will not look at them now.
The result is that hundreds of pounds
of these small pan fish go to waste
and are dumped on the garbage heaps.
Helps to Keep Up Prices.
''All this helps to keep prices up
and to make the general cost Of liv-
ing higher than would be the case
otherwise. If people would buy and
use the smaller grades and the cheap
er foods such as they used to seek
they would save money and help to
make prices lower generally. Pro-
ducers and handlers have to come out
whole on entire shipments, and the
only way they can do so is by making
the salable, first-class stun pay for
the unstable goods wasted because
Of refusal of people to buy them"

THE AMERICAN LEGION
For America Frat"

The stage is set for the Nationa
Convention of the American Legior
at Minneapolis on Monday of mex
week. All physical arrangements fol
the meeting have been cared for
All the delegates are ready to en-
train. Information on any and ev-
cry subject that may come up has
been compiled for the handy refer.
ence of the Legion's representatives
Copies of all bills proposing nationa
legislation of interest to those form
erly in service have been arranged
for.
The eyes of the country are on
Minneapolis. When the elected re-
representatives. of the million members
and four million potential members
of this largest and most truly Amer
lean group assemble in the conven-
ton hall it might properly be said
paraphrasing Napoleon, that all gen.
erations of Americans will look upon
them.
No more solemn duty in the inter-
est of their country ever rested up
on the delegates than will fall upon
them at Minneapolis. In these days
when selfish interest Is banded into
clans of profteering piracy Without
any thoughts of the majority, the
hope of the country lies in the
splendid Americanism of this great
est of clans. While they are not GO
ing to be unmindful of their own
rights and interests the members of
this organization will be tempered in
their actions by sanity and unselfsh
integrity. If they have any demands
to make, these demands will be bas.
ed equity.
No one can foresee what the Amer
lean Legion will do on this issue of
that. Prophecy will be foolhardy
These men are but lately returned
from service. They returned with
quickened minds and keener minds
of perception. They found new con-
ditions, and they saw the old condi.
tions of existence in a new and clear
er perspective. What their reactions
have been and will be, Minneapolis
alone can reveal after November IL
No doubt the Legion members viii
have a word of advice to offer the
Government on pending legislation
affecting not only the interests Of
the men and women who were in the
service but the interests of the 100 !
100000 people who are in America
Whatever this advice may be-
whether it relate to beneficial soldier
laws or the future military policy of |
the country-it will be valuable ad- |
vice.
There is no organization so truly
representative of the entire United
States as the American Legion. It's
are from every class. Geo
the membership takes ir
every state, territory, county,, city
and township. Those who are its
members were taken in equal pro-
portion from those districts for ser
nee during the war. Maine at one
axereme Of the Atlantic coast has g.
