Nineteen hundred and nineteen Will
DC remembered as i year OF agitation
and unrest. The year opened with I'M
employment an acute problem drmafla-
ing immediate solution. No sooner had
industry absorbed the unemployment
than strikes aad lockouts began to tie
up production. ,
The Steel and coal strikes threatened
TO paralyZc industry and TO produce ma
tion-wide suffering. These calamiticS
were aver;ed by 4 p~ertlously mario"

The government in It's control Of the
railroads Is in much the same POSITION
as the man gripping a highly charged
electric battery unable either 10 haNs
on or to let go.
After violent and multI;udtn"us dis
cusSion and reccSscS the PROPOSED pri"'
treaty remains an u~naGrptrd founding
on Americas doorstep. Too much valu-
ahl" time has been consumed. some
agreement should hN reached At once.
Other wciGhty matters demand 'imm"-

Cisrd beCauS" she was so slow IN enter

The race riots OF tn" year have been
the most serious and mcnaclnE Of any
ever experienced.
None or these questions has been
settled. Tho year has been ore Of dis
ruption rather than reconstruction.
Our Imperative need is for a year rf
right thinking. We have had quit"

In 1916, the year of Shakespeare's death, he found the annual stipend allowed him by the king, about $500 was insufficient to supply him with the necessities of life and the particu- lar kind of wine of which he was very fond. This wine was sometime called canary wine, and at other unnes sack.
 King Charles. successor to King James, moved by the prelicament of his fayorite, issued this proclamation:
 Tn consideration of the good and acceptable service done unto us anl our said father by the said Benjamin Jonson, and especially to encourag } him to proceed in those services Of his witt and pen which wee have en- joined unto him, and which wee ex- pect from him. wee are graciously pleased to augment and increase t'Ie said annnities or pension of one hua- dred marks into on annuitie of 9l0o of lawful money of England for his life, and, Further know yee,
 That wee of our more especial grace certen knowledge. and mere motion have given and granted the said Ben jamin Jonson and his assigns one tierce of Canary Spanish wine yearly out of our stores of wines, and from time to time remayning at or in our cellars within or belonging to our pal ace of Whitehall.
 The wine was sent to the poet regu- larly for a time, but finally the king found his own supply running short and stopped deliveries.
 Jonsons muse thereupon began to flag, until, after inliting this complaint

POET LAUREATE. ON STRIKE BECAUSE
 WINE WITHHELD
(New York Sum-

The strange silence maintained by the British laureate, and the desire to quicken him into composing an ode appropriately celebrating the empires victory in the war, has led Horace Bottomly. editor of John Bull, to sug gest what he believes might be remedy.
 Replying to question raised by An drew Bonar Law in Parliament on the poets persistent failure to sing. Mir Bottomly called attention to the fact that part of the remuneration of the court trochadour is cash payment in lieu of stipulated number of casks of canary wine.
 ''Has the government considered the advisability of supplying the wine in stead of cash, in the hope that inspi- ration may be given thereby?" asked MT. Bottomly.
 The issue thus raised has aroused much interest in the United States as well as England, but many who are ac- quainted with the history of the poets laureate doubt the efficacy of the pro- posed remedy.
 Rare Ben Jonson. first of the cou1. poets, went on sstrike's on one occasion because the beverage was withheld from him, but it availed him nothing.
