During the life of the option\nconsiderable development was done,\nand it is said that immense bodies of\nlow grade copper ore was proven. No\ndeep development was done, however,\nand the belief prevails that only work\nat depth will reveal ore bodies worth\nwhile for operations on nn extensive\nscale.

One Is the number\nof little known or visited localities of\nremarkable beauty and natural attractions off the beaten track and regular line of travel In British Columbia almost at one's doors and within\na few miles of the general line, and\nthe other Is the necessity of good or\nbetter trails being made to make these\ndesirable places so essentially characteristic of British Columbia and so\ndear to the Canadian spirit, accessible.\nNew arrivals ln British Columbia\nare struck with the beauty they behold as they go by rati or steamer up\nthe regulation routes and arc Inclined\nto say, \"these people hardly know or\nappreciate the wealth of scenery and\nnatural beauty with which they are so\nlavishly surrounded. Why, these lakes\nare as fine as some of the noted Italian lakes, and some of the mountain\nscenery is second only to the Alps, or\nin somo cases finer.\"\nI know something o_f the scenery of\nthe Alps, of the Grand Canyon of Colorado and the lovable beauty of tne\nbuys and coves of Devonshire, England. All these have a charm peculiarly their own, nnd so has British\nColumbia. Personally of these I prefer those of British Columbia to those\nof Colorado, which I know well, as\nmore artistic, varied and attractive.\nThe long resident or old timer has\ngrown used to the scenery on the lakes\nand scenic railroad routes and has lost\nsome of the enthusiasm he bad at first.\nWhat he wants is a change, and that\nchange if he knows it Is very close\nat hand and easily reached by a single day's journey or a day or two\ncamping-out trip off the beaten track\nto such places as the Kokanee glacier\nand Kaslo lakes from which wo have\nlately returned. The scenery and the\nother attractions are all there almost\nat our doorstep, but the need is of a\ngood or belter trail lo reach them.\nThe trails, and there were many in\nvarious outlets and directions by\nwhich our party left nn foot, were for\nthe most part fair enough for foot\npassengers, but not In all cases good\nenough or accessible to a man on\nhorse back or to a pack train. A very\nlittle work on some of them, however,\nwould place them even now In'goo^\nworking condition.\nA hole' in a corduroy bridge here, i\nbroken up corduroy road there oyerp\nbit of swampy ground mtnded, a) fallen tree across thc path sawn through.\na few boulders here and there ptwhed\naside and so on.

There is none at present\nA good trail for horse or pack trainif\ncan later In many cases be enlarged\ninto a wagon road, and a wagon road\nsmoothed down into one fit for auto>\nmobiles and the climax is reached, and\nthe charming places so plentiful and\ngo peculiarly Canadian and British\nColumbian thrown open to the world.\nWhat is wanted Is good trails and good\nroads.\nINDIAN PUBLIC SERVICE REPORT\nLONDON, England\u2014The India office states that the royal commission\nappointed In 1912 to inquire into and\nreport on various matters connected\nwith the public services in India, submitted their report to His Majesty In\ndue course, but in the abnormal cir^\ncuinstances created by the war, and\nhaving regard to thc probability that\nthe subject matter of the commissioners' recommendations would provoke\nconsiderable discussion in the press\nand elsewhere, it was thought advisable to postpone publication and consideration of the report for the time\nbeing.\nThe prolongation of the war, has.\nhowever, altered the position, and His\nMajesty's government and the government of India are now agreed that the\nadvantages of early consideration of\nthe report, particularly insofar as It\nIs concerned with the increased employment of Indians in the public services, outweigh any inconvenience that\nmight arise from public discussion\nduring the war of the commi3slortc^J,\nrecomendatlons.\nHis Majesty's government, in consultation with the government of India, have therefore decided to publish the report simultaneously in England and India as soon as the necessary arrangements for printing and\ndlspaIdling it to India can be completed.\nWhen\n<6ig&en\n<$oomsf\n4\nYou bounce out of bed witli brain alert\nand body-refreshed by a good night's rest   *   j\n1C you've slept ou an\nALASKA\nTwiM<i<i Un%>\nSPRING\nWITH THE GUARANTEED NON-RUSTING ENAMEL FINISH\nfl The patented interlocked twisted links (see border illustration) and\nthe parallel lengthwise pull of the tense helicals at each end, ensure\nn buoyant conilort and service that no woven wire spring can give.\n(J I la Bteel-rc info reed adjustable coiner castings (patent applied for)\ncnsurcstrcnglh,rigidity,andaccuratofitonanybcd.

Mention in an\nOttawa despatch of a proposal to\ngive consideration to a class of security which would attract small investors\nto place their money to the credit of\nthe Dominion for war expenditures\nSuggests that the government contemplates i embarking on some plan\nthat would enable savings to be ac-\n| cepted at any time.\nTbe government' borrows money in\nthis way through the post office savings bank, but as only 3 per cent interest is paid by that institution it\nI naturally does not attract very much\nmoney. Money is also borrowed under\nthe government annuity scheme, but\nthis also is not productive of large\nsums. Great Britain has solved tbe\nproblem by accepting for war funds\nand paying war-fund interest on deposits as low as 25 cents, a bond of\nminimum denomination being issued\nwhen sufficient cash has been deposited to take one up,\nCanada might with advantage adopt\nthe same plan, with a minimum of $1\ndeposits and a minimum bond denomination of $25.\nPRES8ING      ONWARD      TOWARD\nGERMAN SOIL\n, It would- be a mistake lo assume\nthat entente victories on the western\nfront indicate an early end of the\nwar, but they unquestionably bring\nthe end into sight.\nRecent successes prove that the\nGermans cannot stem the entente advance, wA>lch haa been carried out\nsteadily in accordance with the plans\nof the allied general staff. Objective\nafter objective upon which Gen. Joffre and Gen. Haig have set their eyes\nhaa fallen to the British and French\ntroops.\nFran co-British losses have been\nheavy. That was to be expected and\nthey will not cause a quiver in entente\ndetermination to continue the struggle\nuntil the Germans have been forced to\ngive battle on their own soil. The\nGermans themselves will lie anxious\nenough for peace when the wails of\ntheir own fortresses begin lo fall\n\u25a0under the rain of entente shells and\ntheir own cities get a taste of thc\nhavoc they havo inflicted on French\nand Belgian towns. That will be thc\ntime for the Franco-British troops to\npress onward with redoubled vigor\nand bring Germany definitely and finally to its knees. Germany must come\nInto peace conferences as a suppliant\nand not as a. negotiator on equal\nterms with the quadruple entente and\nits allies;;\nSHOW THE PRODUCTIVENESS OF\nDISTRICT.\nDirectors and management of thc\nNelson fall fair must feel gratified at\nthe excellent display of exhibits that\nis to be seen at the exhibition building this year. \"While in some sections\nthc number of exhibits Is smaller than\nin former years the quality of tbe\nproducers all that could be desired.\nOne of the chief reasons l'or the reduction in the number of farm exhibits is seen in the absence from the\nlist of exhibitors of many well known\nranchers who are now serving their\ncountry at the front It would be easy\nto count up a score of men, in past\nyears heavy exhibitors, who are now\nattached,to the army or navy in Europe.     '\u00ab\u00ab*'\u25a0'\nThe sections devoted to women's and\nchildren's' work are. as in past years,\neloquent of thc good taste and artistic\nabilities of the exhibitors. Naturally\nthese displays are a great attraction\nto fair visitors.\nKING   CONSTANTINE   COMES   TO\nEND OF TETHER.\nKing Constantlne has fought long\nnnd cunningly for the cause of his\nGerman friends but he seems at last\nio be near the end of his tether.\nHis army and navy officers are re\nfusing to remain under the colors of a\nneutral Greece and are joining the\nentente armies and battleships. The\npeople are flocking to the support or\n.\u2022Venizelos who seems now to have\ntaken a fairly firm grasp of the situation and to have come out openly as\nan active lender in the pro-entente,\nor anti-Bulgarian movement.\nThe Greek king is said to have\npromised his advisers to order moblll\n(sullen, He may endeavor to evade ful\nfilment of the pledge. Tbe situation\nin Greece indicates that tho general\nresult would not be much affected if\nhe did make the attempt. The people\nappear to be mobilizing, anyway, even\nif not in strict accordance with the\nstate regulations.\nThe fall fair closes tonight.    Don't\nmiss the opportunity of visiting it.\nAs a fair attraction yesterday the\nbiggest and reddest apple was placed\nln the shade by the 225th military\nband. The army musicians are to be\ncongratulated upon an excellent performance.\n, Canadian bankers are to provide an\nadditional credit Tor Great Britain in\nthis country of $50,000,000. This sum\nwill bring the total assistance given to\nthe mother country in this way to\n$200,000,000.\nLord Shaughnessy'x denial that he\nproposed to resign thc presidency of\nthe Canadian Pacific railway was to\nbe expected. He has remarkable successes to his credit and he is not the\nman to leave the company while the\nwar demands that it be served .by its\nbest men.\n,.\" Mn   \u25a0-t'-.y   .1\nNewspaper publishers are feeling\nvery keenly the effect of the war,\nchiefly on account of the falling off\nin advertising and tiie various increases in the cost of publication. In\ntlie United Kingdom the extra expense has been met in part by decreasing tho size Of the papers and in\npart by increasing rates, and this is\nalso true in many parts of the United\nStates and Canada. At a recent meeting of the Newspaper Publishers' Association of British Columbia, held in\nVancouver, it was decided to discontinue the free publication of advertising matter.\nThe Mail-Herald lias been exceedingly liberal with free publicity, in this\nrespect going far beyond what papers\nelsewhere have done. They print weekly very many notices that are paid for\nin all other cities. This practise will\nbe abandoned and notice to that effect will be found tn another column.\nThe rule laid down therein will be\nfollowed 'strictly.\nWhen a newspaper gives free space\nto such notices it is making what is,\nin effect, a cash donation. No one expects any other business to lie similarly   taxed.\u2014Revelstoke   Mail-Herald.\nThe Frankfurter Zeitung naively\nsays that Germany has suffered a\n\"tactical\" loss in the capture by the\nentente troops of Combles and Thiepval and glories in the fact that the\nGerman line is not broken. It might\nsay the same thing if Essen or Berlin\nwere  captured.    ' '.\"'v,.\nf * \u00bb\u25a0\u25a0\u00bb\u25a0\u2666-\nt WHAT THE  PRESS ISj^YING.

New\nenemies crowd upon them, the \"ring ol\nIron\" is nearly welded; frontiers arc\nlengthened, flanks are threatened, the\ninitiative is lost and unless some desperate Napoleonic stroke can be successfully made, the end is but a matter\nof time. Hus Hindenburg thc genius\nfor such a master-stroke? He bas at\nany rate the bull-dog fighting qualities\ntor a last ditch struggle and under his\ncontrol a fierce and strenuous prosecution of the war would be certain. But\nthe honor which comes thus late to\nan old man is a perilous power. Even\na Napoleon In a war like this would\nbe a frail reed to lean upon.\u2014Springfield Republican.\nRain Not Due to Guns.\nIt hus been thought by many that\nour unusually rainy spring and early\nsummer was the result of the cannonading in Europe, although those\nwho believe this do not explain the intense heat and rainlessness of the later\nmonths. Any who have doubts about\nthis matter would do well to read in\nthe September Atlantic Monthly an\narticle on thc subject by an official\nforecaster Meteorology has made vast\nstrides in the last 41) years -and although there are many things about\nthe weather which expert forecasters\ndo not yet know, they do know that.\nthe old idea about artillery causing\nshowers is not true.\u2014Chicago Tribune\nCoins a New Word.\n\"Tcacherage\" is the new word whicli\nhas come to sit beside \"parsonage.\"\nIt means the residence provided liy\ntbe community for the pedagogue. II\nhas appeared In several of the rural\ndistricts of the United States and\nCanada, it's a great improvement on\nthe wretched makeshift of boarding\n'round.\u2014Vancouver Province.\nMuch lias been heard lately of tlie\nnews print paper situation and of the\nsupply difficulties which are facing\nnewspapers both in Canada and the\nUnited States. Although paper mills\nln this country have been operating\nat their full capacity, they have not\nbeen able to maintain their stocks.\nFurthermore, they have to. pay more\nhighly for their raw material, which\nin turn is costing more highly because\nof the Increased cost of labor.\nThe situation in the United States,\nwhere sudden prosperity brought\nlarger advertising demands and thus\nincreased tbe size of newspapers, has\nbeen another unexpected and complicating factor. It is interesting, bow-\never, to note that the business of\npapermaking is being rapidly transferred from thc United , States to\nCanada. The policy of limiting or\npreventing the exportation of pulp\nand pulpwood hus had its predestined\neffect, and now paper mills are rapidly springing up in various parts of the\nDominion.\nTbe export of printing paper increased more than 60 per cent in 1015,\nas compared with 1914. It has probably increased still further in 1916,\nand will continue to Increase as fast\nas the mills can be erected.\u2014Calgary\nHerald.\nVANCOUVER CONTRIBUTES\n$2,445,000  TO  WAR   LOAN\n{By Daily News Leased Wire.)\nVANCOUVER, B.C., Sept. 27.\u2014Vancouver subscribed $2,445,000 to the\nsecond Canadian war loan, as compared witli $1,820,000 for the first loan\nissued last November.

C. A. Child in New York Times.\nA TEUTON  DREAM.\nt\nOne of the recent news cables coming from Berlin by way of Copenhagen\ntells of preparations for a convention\nto be held in Budapest in the near\nfuture, not to consider war measures\nnor yet peace plans, but to arrange\nfor a great engineering enterprise. At\nthis conference plans are to be discussed for linking up the Danube and\nthe Rhine river and thus opening a\nthrough water route from the Black\nsea to the North sea, a way which it\nis proposed shall be throughout navigable for 1000-ton barges and steamboats.\nIt is but another of the Teuton\ndreams, like unto the proposed through\nrailroad line from Berlin to Bagdad.\nThe last-named scheme was well on\nits way to realization when the war\nbroke out, and, though the Far Eastern\nextension of this big undertaking has\nbeen blocked, temporarily at least, it\nis an important fact that this line\nthrough Bulgaria into Turkey is now\ndoing business on more or less reg-\nlar schedules. The linking up of the\nDanube and tbe Rhine is no new proposition, but it comes as a distinct surprise that the Central Powers should\nbe planning a conference in conection\nwith this purely commercial scheme at\na time when seven armies from as\nmany points of an encompasing ring\nare driving into or toward Teuton territory.\nIt is estimnted that tbe connection\nof the navigable waters of the two\nrivers by such a channel as is proposed will involve an outlay of five hundred million marks\u2014about $125,000,-\n000. The Danube empties into the\nBlack sea through territory belonging\nentirely to Rumania. It Is this territory, however, that has been invaded\nby Bulgaria since the entrance of Rumania into the war on the side of the\nallies. The Danube formes the boundary between Rumania and Bulgaria\nfor more than 200 miles.\u2014Baltimore\nAmerican,\nTHE    ELECTRIC\nINGLENOOK 1\nSome day we shall probably do most\not our heating and cooking for the\nhousehold by means of electricity. It\nis possible to do it now. and the electrical companies are constantly urging\nthe benefits of the system; but the\nquestion of cost still stands in the way\nof the modern Method's universal\nadoption. It is different in the Scandinavian countries, where most of the\nwaterfalls are being harnessed. Sweden is ahead of us in the item of putting\nelectricity to work on household tasks,\nfor she is making her natural power\nwork for her. The Swedish peasant is\nas familiar with electricity as he is\nWith original horse power when it\ncomes to getting the chores done;\nmodern Scandinavia would be a poor\nplace to use for the stage setting of a\npicturesque rural* comedy. And the\ncities of Sweden and Norway are also\nahead of our municipalities In many\napplications of electric power. A new\nheating system has been successfully\ntried out in Stockholm. A heat insulated water tank is placed in thc top\nstory of a. building, and is provided\nwith a \"suitable electric beater. Current is turned on at night, when it\ncan be furnished at a low rate. In\nthe morning It is automatically\nswitched off and a portion of it is\nthrown on a small electric motor\npump in the basement, which acts on\ntbe water in a small tank and gives\nrise to a steady circulation of warm\nwater in tbe radiators of the various\nrooms. In the evening the pump is\nstopped and the current is switched\non to the lank heater. It bas been\nshown that a storage tank of 125 gallons, charged for ten hours at night'\nand using four kilowatts, will heat\nfive rooms. And thc system renulres\nlittle attention; Stockholm people are\nbeating their flats by that simple system at a minimum of dirt and trouble.\nIt is so simple and easy that it may\nsome day be universal.\u2014Cleveland\nPlain Dealer.\n\u2666\u2666\u2666\u2666\u2666\u2666\u2666\u2666^\nCOLD STORAGE.

HI\" the many forms of\nmagnesia such ;is liquids, oxides, citrates, carbonates, sulphates, etc.. the\nmost suitable and efficient for stomach purposes is blsurated magnesia, ii\nteaspoonful up which taken in a little\nwater after eating or whenever Indigestion Is fell will instantly neutralize\nor dissolve the excessive acid, stop fermentation and make painless and normal digestion easy.

Machines expressed himself as\ndelighted wilh the splendid showing\nmade by the ranchers of the district\nand others in the display of various\nproduce. When he used to travel\nthrough Nelson nearly 2\u00bb years ago,\nhe said, the idea of ;m annual exhibition hnd never even been dreamed J\u00bbf\nand he .declared that tbe showing\nmade this year was indicative of the\nprogressive spirit that characterized\nthe west. He stated that since the cs-\ntablishmenl of the fair in Nelson as a\nyearly event, he believed the many exhibitions throughout the district of a\nlike nature had followed as a direct\nresult, the value of which from a development standpoint, he said, could\nnut be over estimated.\nReferring to present conditions Mr.\n\u25a0Machines declared that he noticed a\nwonderful improvement in the west\nsince his last trip two years ago. The\ncountry was rapidly picking up and\nregaining its business footing. Shipments of fruit, hay and vegetables from\nthe Okanugan, he said, were considerably larger tliis'year than for some\ntime, while evidence of returning prosperity  was to he seen on every hand.\nMr. Machines declared that he looked forward lo a steady increase hi\ntlie output of nil industries, the greatest problem now confronting the country being the adjustment of the industrial output and lhe provision for\nreturning soldiers niter the  war.\nMr, Maclnnes and his pnrty will\nleave ibis morning for a visit to Trail,\nafter which they will continue their\njourney to the coast via the Kettle\nValley, returning to the east by the\nmain line.\nDANCE TONIGHT IN\nAID OF BAND FUND\nThe armory will hp the scene of a\ndance this evening in aid of the 225fh\nband fund, which it is expected will\nattruct a large number of citizens lu\nview of the fact that the members may\nnot have another opportunity of meeting their many friends before being\nsent overseas witli the unit.\nSpecial preparations are being made\nby members of the various patriotic\norganizations to make, the evening's\nentertainment one of the most successful ever held In the city.

Tbe aggregate value of the trade was 147,-\n000,000,000 rupees. The decrease which\nis attributable to the effects of the war\ncomprised a fall of x.SOO.OOO.OOO rupees\nin private trade anil :,(:0,000,0ti0 rupes\nIn government transactions, which declined from 400,000,000 rupees in 1914-\nl!tir> to 350,1100,00(1  rupes.\nThe returns for 1914-15 says the report, included four months of normal\ntrade, whereas the year 1915-10 was\na period of continuous war, during\nwhicli the normal processes of trade\nand finance had to be readjusted and\nsubordinated to war purposes. The\ndirect result was to keep elOSCd all\ntrade with enemy countries, to raise\nfreight rates lu a very high figure, to\nrestrict or control trade, owing to thc\nspecial measures taken, the object nf\nwhich was to prevent supplies reaching the enemy. Jo stimulate the export\nof articles re.ptired by the United\nKingdom or the allies, and to conserve  supplies   in   India.\nTbe conseiiueiice of all the conditions hns been to decrease the volume\nof tlie sea-borne trade both in imports\nand exports of merchandise. Kx-\nchiinge difficulties which were experienced by all belligerent countries were\nnot experienced to the same degree\nat all in India, where exchange remained stable. A further result of the\nwar has been to attract increased attention to tbe opportunities offered\nto Indian Industries, now that so\nmany of the usual sources of supply\nhave been cut off, and a commission\nhas recently been appointed lo examine the possibilities of further industrial development. The cessation uf\ntrade with enemy countries and the\ncurtailment of trade w'ith France nod\nBelgium were counterbalanced hy noticeable increases in the Imports from\n\u2022lava, .lupMii nnd the United Stales of\nAmerica, and the exports to the United Kingdom, .laiian, China and Persia.\nThe   total   vail f   the   merchandise.\nExclusive of government stores, imported Into the Port of Bombay in lhe\nforeign trade during the year ended\nMarch 31. JfllO, wus 44,20,09,00(1 rupees\nus compared with 411,07,0.1,000 rupees\nin  1.914-15.\nFBENDLY SOCIETY\nAND THE GREAT WAR\nCHELTENHAM, ISngland.\u2014At the\neighty-second meeting of the high\ncourt of the Ancient Order of Foresters, held recently at Cheltenham, the\nhigh chief ranger in his opening, address said over lno.OOO of their members had rallied to the flag. Their\nsacrifice would not have been in vain.\nTlie United Kingdom, the empire itself, and the whole world would\nemerge brighter and better for the\nnoble sacrifices which had been made\nby the sons1 of the empire and their\ngallant allies in fighting lor right and\nthe destruction uf Prussian militarism. During 1915, he mentioned, there\nwas a decroase In the voluntary adult\nbenefit  membership  of   19,618.    This\nwas rait so large a decrease as in the\nprevious year; and, in view of lhe.\nlarge draft on the young manhood of\nthe country for war purposes, it was\nnot so unfavorable, in comparison\nwllli the previous year, as would' appear at a first glance. There was\nan increase id' 5250 in tbe number of\nmembers insured under the national\nInsurance acts. At lhe end uf 1915\nthere were 1,300,128 persons insured\non Uie voluntary side, including members of auxiliary societies and 700.987\nunder lie- national Insurance acts\u2014\na total of L'.001,1ir>\u2014nf whom 433,917\nwere Insured both on the state and\nvoluntary sides'.\nTbe voluntary funds amounted lu\n\u00a3110,593,060, nn increase nf ES0,9IO.\nWhen considering the Increase in voluntary funds it should be home. In\nmind that the members engaged in\nHis Majesty's forces were not required to pay contributions. Of the members under the national Insurance nets\nno fewer than 92,400 were engaged in\nlhe forces, Thc results disclosed in\nrespect of juvenile, junior and probationary members were the must satisfactory of recent yenrs. It was Impossible tn gauge accurately the effect on the national life of the work\nof the order. They could, al any rate,\nclaim that they had done good work,\nand that it could not be measured in\nonly pounds, shillings and pence. At\na suitable opportunity when the war\nWas over il would be advisihle to review I ho effect of lhe war on thc financial   position   of the  order.\nA civic welcome having been offered by the mayor of Cheltenham, Bishop Frodshum said a great deal depended on lhe friendly societies in the\nerecting nf the tilings that had been\nbroken down by two yenrs of war. He\nexpressed a hope that the Ancient Order of Foresters would not bo dissolved in a union under lhe insurance act,\nand said that they bad in (icrmany\nan object lesson on what they ought\nto avoid in undue centralization. Thc\nBrilish did not want the power to\ncome only from the top; (hey wanted\nto have willing obedience combined\nwith the spirit of perfect freedom\nwhich had guided them in the past,\nand which would guide them in the\nfuture.\nNEW DEFENSE OF THE\nREALM REGULATIONS\nLONDON, Fngland\u2014The defense of\ntho realm regulations have recently\nbeen amended in several important\nparticulars hy an order In council; as\nmentioned  in cable, dispatches.\nln connection with the price of food,\npowers are given to thc board of trade\nto require detailed information from\npersons fur the purpose of ascertaining whether goods of any discrlption\nare \"held on account of, or for the\nbenefit or future benefit, direct or indirect, of any person* resident or carrying on business In any country which\nat thc time is at war with His\" Majesty, or any person of enemy nationality, or are held otherwise to the\nprejudice of the national interest.\"\nOne of tlie objects of such inquiry is\nto establish whether thc amount of\nthe goods held is In excess of the normal requirements of thy trade of the\nowner thereof, and the reasons for\nthe excess, If any.

BURU.DGE, STORES     COMMISSIONER ^ L     ^iiT J\nCONTRACTS   FOR   ARMY\nAND NAVY WORK IN BRITAIN\nLondon, England\u2014Some striking\nfjicts have been brought to liylit by\nthe house of commonH committed of\npublic accounts which recently issued\nits second report, The committee, it\nappears, agreed to the limitation of\nthe Information now made public on\ntho undertaking thnt nothing should\nbe withheld from the controller and\nauditor-general and that tbe fullest\naccount should he publishes at the\nearliest moment that it could be dom\nwithout detriment to the public inter\nest, The most striking criticisms and\ncomments are given  below:\nThe committee, while admitting that\ncertninj lifeguards against extravagance have been adopted in connection witli the admiralty charges, are\nof opinion that more specific powers\nover control of rates of wages and\nprices of materials should haye been\ntaken in the forms of contracts with\na   view  of securing all  due economy.\nThe committee found that in regard\nto*shells and guns tlie admiralty hail\nbeen in the habit of inviting tenders\nand determining the reasonableness of\nthe cost ns best they could. Recently, however, the admiralty liave placed orders for shells leaving the price to\nlie settled later on, unci have called\nupon certain firms to produce the certified cost of their shells and have\nalso employed skilled accountants to\nInvestigate  the  firms' books,\nThe committee regret that no such\nsystem seems to have been adopted\nbeforo the war in order to break down\nrings which wero known to exist\namong contractors, and that, even\nnow, with the experience of the ministry of munitions, tbe system is being\nbut slowly introduced, so that prices\npaid by tbe admiralty for shell and\nother supplies show no such -reduction\nfrom the rates running just after thc\ncommencement of the war as has been\neffected by the ministry of munitions,\nDealing with the army accounts the\ncommittee state that they are Informed that the war office contemplate\nadvising tbe cabinet that India should\ngive some further contribution Lo the\nwar.\nRegarding contracts the committee\nstate: On tlie outbreak of war the\npeace system (In relation to contracts\nand so forth) was modified as being\ntoo slow to meet the reipiirements of\nthe army, and the war office at once\nresorted to direct negotiation appointing expert agents to go around and\nbuy from stock, or negotiate direct\ndeals with the manufacturers. The\nwhole procedure, however, was soon\nfound to be unsatisfactory, as the\ngovernment were taking mjariy as\nmuch as some industries could produce and in some cases wanted far\nmore, so that all tlie goods offered had\nto be accepted irrespective of prices.\nA method to secure supplies for-the\narmy and yet protect the public interest by seeing that the prices paid were\nsubmitting\njustify  th\nnoble took some time to\nJune, 1915, the war of-\nrequire manufacturers,\ntheir prices on tenders,\nise  prices  by giving    a\nstale\nand\nInto\nnent of the costs of manufacture;\n11 cases where Uiese were clearly\n'ibitant, negotiations were  entered\nt<> reduce tho prices asked.\nKui-tlu'i' developments culminated at\nlength on Keb. 5, 1015, in an amendment lo tho defense of the realm regulations, hy wbich power is given, in\nthe last resort, to requisition tlie output of any factory in the country, and\nto pay for that output a fair agreed\nprice, whicli tho contractor bas to\nshow to be reasonable by producing\nhis costs of manufacture and satisfying the expert advisers of the department. This has bad the effect of\nbreaking up ami preventing combinations bf manufacturers against tlie\ngovernment. In many cases the government liave taken control of whole\ntrades, such as those in jute and boot\nleather, with the result that In tin-\ncase of the formei', ti sum of not less\nthan \u00a33,000,000 a year has been saved on sandbags alone, and very large\neconomies have been effected in other\narticles.\nThe admiralty and tiie war office,\n(ho report mentions, are to some extent working together and endeavors\nare being made to arrange a system\nof joint costing and buying which\nshall prevent in thc future the two\ndepartments from competing with one\nanother, hut the committee regret that\nunfortunately this has not yet taken\ndefinite shape, The committee regret\nthe large expenditure caused by the\nfact that retired officers reemployed\nhave been granted pay ami allowances\nin addition to retired pay.\nWith regard to billeting, tho report states that in January, l!)!\"., the\narmy council informed the treasury of\ntheir intention to reduce the rate of\npayment to the householder, S.s. -l^d.\nper day to 2s. fid., but no reduction\nwas effected until the issue of an army order on tho subject ia August,\n1915, the reduced rates coming into\neffect on the following 1st of September. This delay seems to tlie committee inexcusable, and it resulted in a\nquite unnecessary expenditure of public money.\nIn the Irish command a largo number of horses were cast as unsuitable\nfor military prices and sold at prices\nwhich indicated considerable loss, especially in the southern part, whore\ntbe proportion was very high as compared with the rest of Ireland and\nwith England and Scotland. The committee were informed that want of\nknowledge of military requirements on\nthe part of both military and civilian\nbuyers, unsound advice from veterinary assistants, and carelessness in the\nbranding which made possible the substitution of inferior horses between\npurchase and delivery, were mainly\nresponsible for this state of things,\nwhich it appears raised tho average\n\u00a342 to .(Mr..

At\ntlie beginning; of thc war a large contractor offered lo erect lints for no\npayment beyond ihe bare cost. When\nhe was in possession of the work and\ntlie orders given him were constantly\nincreased, he represented to the war\noffice that he ought to be paid a commission, naming \u25a0\u2022 per cent, with 1%\nper cent to cover standing charges.\nThe awkwardness of the position\nwas pointed out to him, and thai it\ninvolved other contractors who followed his first patriotic example, and\nwere performing the work on payment\nof 'out-of-pocket expenses' only. It\nwas proposed to him that be could\nwith greater propriety work for sonic\ndefinite fee, the reasonableness of\nwhich was not disputed, but ho persisted In his demand, with the result,\nthat, to avoid delay, it was decided\nto pay him the commission stipulated\non all work additional to that originally undertaken free of charge. The\ntotal expenditure for which this contractor became responsible is stated\nto liave been \u00a33,750,000, of which\nabout \u00a3400,000 apparently was the\namount concerned in the original undertaking, The adoption or this course\nnecessarily involved simitar treatment\nfor the other firms employed.\nThe committee express regret that\nno sliding scale of commission was\nfixed in the relation of the value of\nthe work to he executed; that at the\ntime or fixing the commission no understanding was arrived at as to the\nItems on which the commission should\nbe payable; and that no power wus\ntaken under the agreement, to refuse\nto pay exorbitant wages or prices of\nmaterials. Tbe contractor claimed\nthat ho should be paid on the cost of\neverything supplied to him by the\ngovernment. It was finally agreed as\na compromise thnt a, commission\nshould bo paid upon the value of the\ntimber supplied bill not on any of the\nfittings for the huts nor on certain\nready made huts which the war office\nprovided.\nAn expert committee appointed subsequently by the war office to report\non these huts .staled that the scale\nof commission allowed was excessive\nfor work of such magnitude, and that\nno commission (other than for head\noffice charges) ought to be paid on\nthe value of any materials supplied\nby the office of works.\nThe payments In connection with\nthp payments of sugar at March 81,\n1915, amounted to \u00a318,599,552 Cs. 3d.\nTlie amount received I\" respect of sale\nwas \u00a311,493,904 7s., leaving a balance\nof \u00a37,105,747 INs. 3d,, represented by\nstocks of sugar to a much greater value, all the sugar in hand were now\nrealized, a profit of something like\n\u00a31,500,000   would   be   made.\nGERMAN  ECONOMIC  COMMISSION.\nBERLIN.\u2014It is officially announced\nthat the German federal council has\nauthorized tlie formation of a commission to supervise the transition of\nGerman economic life from war to\npeace conditions. The chief duty of\nthe new department will be to arrange for tho acquisition and distribution of the raw materials whicli\nGorman Industry will be anxious to \u2022\nacquire as soon as peace? is signed.\nIn order that it. may acquire a comprehensive grasp of the raw material\nrequired, what there Is in stock and\nwhat purchases liave already been\nliiado abroad, iL is made compulsory\nfor the public ai large lo furnish information to Us representatives ami\nfacilities arc to be given it for Lhe\nexamination of business correspondence and books and the inspection of\nstocks.\nRefusal to grant such facilities, or\nthe suppression of information as to\nbusiness arrangements or relations,\nwill be punishable.
