DESERVE NO LENIENCY.

Under the allegation that they are
the principals in a scheme for snug
Cling thousands of dollars worth Of
narcotics into this country, a trio of
Boston men are TO be arraigned be-
COR the federal court in Vermont for
smuggling and conspiracy to defraud
the government
In the past few years extra, efforts
have been made TO restrict the sale of
dangerous drugs throughout the coun-
try. New laws have been enacted and
special efforts made to enforce them,
but in spite OF the regulations it has
been evident that it was possible to
secure the drugs not only by those
who use them but by those who get
rich off of the practice of peddling and
encouraging the use of them. For the
sake of humanity none too great eff
| forts can be made to overcome this
evil. The arresting and fining of the
addicts, the conviction of the neddlers
| and the keeping tabs on dealers have
not resulted in bringing about the
| check to the evil that is desired Or
| that is needed TO overcome the de-
moralizing effects of drug using. Pro-
lection is needed not only to prevent
those who have incurred the habit
! from getting worse but to keep the
| dope away from those who have no;
as yet been led into the use of such
| body, mind and soul-wrecking stuff.
No sooner were the restrictions i'm
/ posed than efforts were MADE to cir
cumvent the law. Smuggling of the
| drugs into the country, which not only
avoids the payment of revenue bur
makes it impossible for the govern.
ment to regulate their sale and dis
| tribution. is one of the ways in which
| the provisions Of the law are avoided
1t is thus apparent that the fedora
authorities cannot exercise too mucf
vigilance in discovering the violators
and when they are located they de.
| serve to receive the full penalty which
the law permits. The welfare Of tht
nation demands it.

duction while encouraging extrava-
gance as to cost. 1t would have been
impossible to achieve the amazing re-
suits of the past twenty months of
war without a considerable degree
Of wastely expenditure in almost all
government undertakings. The vital
need was speed, and it was obtained
frequently without regard to expense.
That demand has now ceased and it
is to be hoped that it will be replaced
by q return to a more even poise in
government administration.
The need of readjustment to peace
conditions is no more pressing upon
business than on government. For
possession Of ain Aladdin Lamp" We
have become accustomed to talk cas-
lily of billions. There is every ikeli-
hood that government financing will
continue to be conducted on a vast
scale of several years to come. 1t is
to be hoped, however, that our cour-
age in meeting the large demands of
war will not be allowed to degenerate
into folly through a food of wild and
extravagant projects intended to an
ticipate the slowing up of certain
lines of business.
While the future calls for the exer-
else of a. reasonable degree of circum-
spection the indications are generally
favorable for a return to normal con
ditions in industry with no more Sc
rious dislocations or checks thar
characterized our entry into the war
The vital need is for a display of ma,
, ti0nal common sense and a purpose
to refuse to be stampeded or over
awed by world returning to peace
gers of a world at war-Bosto1

BOUNDARY ADJUSTMENTS.

At no time have the difficulties
which are likely to be experienced in
readiustinE the boundaries in Europe
rs the result Of the war been over
looked but new emphasis is being
given to them by the claims which are
being set forth by some of the coun-
tries
It has been seen that there is a
strong difference of opinion between
the Italians and the Jugo- Slavs
as TO how much territory should be
given TO italy. as to where the boun-
9aries Of Jugoslavia should stop and
IS TO the east coast of the Adriatic
which the former seeks in order to
obtain the control of that sea. Greece
is looking for northern Epirus which
was formerly part of that country and
Rumania is ambitiously striving to
greatly increase its territorial limits
at the expense OF Russia and Hun
gary. There are also the former Ger
man colonies which must be arranged
for, while Poland is taking steps to
include several provinces.
But in addition to this there is the
situation in Turkey which calls for

serious attention. and here France is
already claiming that the terms Of
the secret treaty which was entered
into by the entente nations three or
four years ago should be carried out.
According to that France would be
given southeastern Asia Minor and
Syria, England was to have Arabia
and Mesopotania, and Russia north
ern Asia Minor and Constautinople.
1t remains to be seen. however, just
how much the peace conference will
feel that it should be guided by the
secret treaties. There are decidedly
different conditions today and action
should be taken in accordance there
with, but it is perfectly apparent,
however, that the fixing of the future
European boundaries is not going to
be the easiest thing to adjust.

There can be little question but
what the capture of Perm by Genera.

and Siberian troops was a severe blow
as well as a surprise to the bolshevik
leaders Perm lies to the west of the
Ural mountains on the Kama river
and from that point the bolsheviki had
not only intended to prevent the anti
bolshevik forces from moving west

expected to overwhelm the Czechs and
Siberians and extend their control
BY a daring attack, under plans
which had not received the approval
Of higher authorities, General Gaida
moved against the bolshevik troops
with such cunning as to take them
completely off their guard and cap
ture Perm before there was an OPP
portunity to make a successful de-
tense or get away. Daring though it
was the vancouver has displayed the
