The New York Times asks: "How could she make that great advance if the seas were closed against her? What do Germans' mean when they talk about freedom of the seas as something they must have, but have r not enjoyed?" The Times adds: "In furtherance of her lawful, peaceful, ambitions Qermany need fear no opposition save Hint of honorable rivalry. There lies the source of doubt, Hie uncertainty, the whole trouble, ' Germany's behavior since the end of July. 11)14, has not been of a nature to Impress the nations of Hie world with confidence In the peaceful nature of her designs. The war she has brought upon Europe, and her Conduct during the war, have put in the way of her commercial development on the seas and beyond the seas, obstacles vastly more formidable than any England has ever thrown in her way. If she seeks her worst enemy she must look at home." The "freedom of the seas" if a cry raised by the Kaiser's agents, for the purpose of bewildering and misleading neutral nations. Until the Huns broke the peace Great Britain's sea-power kept the ocean highways open for German, as for British and all other commerce.

The announcement thai Canada is to offer, for Imperial service, an army of half a million men in order to humble 'he arrogant Hun, in his hope of establishing a world dictatorship, will cause till citizens of the co tntry to feel an honorable pride. The Kaiser is now learning that the British Umpire is in this war to a finish, and that she is in it unitedly. It is the weell known perogativs of the Urilon to lind fault and to object. At no time is this more in evidence than in a time of stress, like the present. Probably it Is carried too far. It must not be forgotten, however, that it is that his love of freedom to speak am do as he likes that has made Ihe B'Uon among men and the Empire among nations what it is today. The British Empire has now, from all parts, plunged inlo the war on a gigantic scale. It is evidently, from now on.' to be the final chapter in tlie war. That chapter will, it may well lie thought, be the strangulation of tlie enemy as a fighting power. Before another New Year's Day conies round may peace reign. who is in receipt of any gratuity, pension or allowance paid by Mis Majesty or by any foreign .govern- tneni in consequence of incapacity or ! death occurring as aforesaid." Partly on this account, and largely because the pensions and gratuties paid to incapacitated men are oft- times admittedly inadequate, it has been necessary t0 establish .< Hospitals Commission and Disablement Fund. The officials of the latter, in their report to the Federal Government, recommended, among other measure', that provincial commissions be formed for the purpose of supplementing these pensions either by monetary grants or by free train- MINERAL ACT. 1 iMirm F.)
