In local mining circles the recent severe decline in silver prices has been a subject of much speculation and comment. Many theories have been advanced as to the cause of the decline. The following opinion, derived from a Toronto source, while it may or may not have a substantial basis in fact, ie, neverthless, interesting. ��� The Toronto authority says: <cRy apparently-exerting every; influence, the British government, through the banking institutions'" of "|he" .Chinese Empire, and by complexly ~ stopping silver shipments to India, has been-able to bring about a de-* cline in the price of silver just at a time when leading metal authorities appeared' to be firmly convinced that such was quite impossible at the present time." Having" adopted extremely drastic measures, that mo3t influentai of all bodies, the British government, has literally .stemmed the current of the law of supply and demand by effectually curtailing demand, just how long this influence may be continued is jnore or less problematical, bufe having scored a knockout, sg to speak,--in fehe-first ��� round, it seems on^ reasonable to suppose that under the'conditions which exist the price ' may be held down to Ifes present'level." "Ife is afe this point, however, that.fehe situation takes on a new phase- one caused by - the very methods adopted by the British government, and one that may aetaally, in due course, defeat the aims of that body. The new situation created is this: The British government has been able to reduce quotations for silver by lessening the demand, but fehe British government has not shown the miners how they can produce their bullion more cheaply. For that reason a reduced price for silver must lead to a reduced ontput to the end that the demand, even minus that- of China, in part, and India as a whole, may in a comparatively shorfe time again far exceed the supply. Insofar as Northern Ontario is concerned, the mines are on a firm basis, for the reason thafe their ore is high grade, and can be mined profitably long after many other mines in other parts of the world wonld find it otherwise. Should curtailment in other countries be made imperiative, it will bat serve to increase the demand - tor silver, and thus work out feo tho benefit of the mines of this country. For instance, the* average cost of producing silver from the Cobalt mines, as a whole is less than 60 cents an ounce, thereby -��� having a margin of profit of over 45 cents an onnee. even afe current quotations, a net profit actually equal to the total gross value c-f the metal five years ago."

Sir Robert is a man, therefore, who is fully conversant with present commercial and financial conditions throughout the world, and anything he may have to. .say on such subjects are worthy of thc thoughtful attention and serious consideration of thc people of Western Canada. In a recent address at Calgary he said: "Unless wc stop sailing along thc smooth waters of this present false prosperity, brought about through inflation, which gives the world an additional purhasing power which is unreal, I say, if wc don't stop now, we shall bc faced with thc most appalling financial crisis in the next five or six years that the world has ever seen.

In uttering these words of warning, Sir Robert Kindersley is only repeating what the'most, astute and best informed men -the. world over have been saying.and urging"for some timc past. Up, to the present ;timc, however, their words seem .to.have, fallen on deaf ears: The situation in Canada is very' similar to that in.the United Statcs, although possibly, not quite so aggravated because, in this country we , suffered 'losses' during the war out of all "proportion to those- sustained by the United States, -while we did not profit to the same extent as .our southern neighbors"did.- " ���'��� - - Nevertheless, conditions -. on the- North American continent, are very . . similar, .and here in Canada wc may well heed the summing, up of the difficulty in the United States as stated by: one. observant American -writer - when he "says: "There is-too jmich of spending, and too" little; earning; -too much extravagance" arid-too -little economy; top ; much "restless ..- and "vague desire' and too little' real en; - joymen't.','.

Britain Has Reason For Maintaining The Most Powerful . , ���; ' -Navy . \ x.' ��� y;...:��� X'X ��� The' addition of the five, floating German dreadnoughts to the-British fleet may save Britain .from losing her naval supremacy to the United States during the next two or three years. At present Britain has 33 dreadnoughts. The United States lias 27 built or building and is planning for- 10 more. Britain has 13 battle-cruisers. The United States is building.six and is planning for six more. The justification for. the intensive naval program of the United States is hard to find particularly when President Wilson urges all the nations of the world to_join the League of Nations and agree fo an all-round reduction of armaments. A clash between the two great divisions of the Anglo-Saxon race is unthinkable. Yet even the best friends of the United States who are citizens of the British empire feel that Britain occupies such a unique, position in the world that she has reason for taking such steps as may be necessary to maintain the most powerful navy in the world. The cost of naval construction keeps on multiplying. The British. battleship Hood, with the extraordinary tonnage of 42,000, a length of 860 feet, 31 knots speed, and eight 15rinch guns, is costing thirty million dollars,;, and it is said that some of the American dreadnoughts now building are expected to cost more than forty mil-, ��� lion dollars.
