The council made it known in its\ndaily semi-official communication to. the newspapers that it does\nnot propose to hiake public the correspondence so that the\nquestion of whether the text of the note will be given to the\nworld rests with President Wilson.\nSince the main facts are public property namely, that the\npresident strongly objects to the solution of the Italian-.Tugo-\nSlav problem by the application.of the treaty of London thereto,\nand objects so strongly as to contemplate America's withdrawal\nfrom the Versailles compact as a possible occurrence, and that\nthe council objects to the reopening of the question, the undecided point is whether the arguments exchanged shall be\npublished while the controversy is hot on the anvil.\nThe statement from* Washington confirming the first reports that the president had intimated that rejection of his\npolicy might be followed by diplomatic reprisals furnished another surprise to the politicians and the public who, outside\nof a small but important force which meets twice daily in\nDowning street and the advisers in the confidence of this group,\nexperienced the greater surprise because it came close on the\nheels of other Washington messages intimating that the American retirement from its part in policing the Adriatic was in-\n\u2022 tended.\nSEEASTOPOL IN \u2022\nSTATE OF PANIC\nSAY REFUGEES\nCONSTANTINOPLE, Fob. 17.\n\u2014The population of Scbastopol,\nRussia's great sea port in the\nCrimea, has become so panic-\nstricken over the bolshevik menace\nthat there is a danger of the\nrepetition of the events which\ntook place at Odessa when the\nReds captured that city rocenlly,\naccording to the reports of belated refugees arriving in Constantinople.\nThe refugees, in telling of the\nlast hours spent in Odessa, say\nthat the crows of the ships were\ncompelled to turn machine guns\nupon the crowds to prevent them\nfrom overloading and sinking\nrefugee vessels which were about\nto sail. The bolshevik had begun raking the docks at Odessa\nwith machine gun fire while there\nwere fully 5000 persons still trying to make their escape. Many\nof these crowded upon ships disabled or without coal, boiling that\nthey might be towed out to sea\nand away from danger. It is asserted by refugees that when the\nforeign warships left Odessa\nmany women drowned themselves.\nTHOUSANDS OF DOLLARS NOW BEING SPENT\nIN CANADA WHICHFORMERLY HELPED ENRICH\nCOFFERS OF MERCHANTS IN UNITED STATES\nBUTTEfl CONTEST\nTops All Entrants in Dominion Wide Competition;\nEntries Numbered 225\nWINNIPEG, Feb. 17.\u2014This evening judging wns comploted in the\ngreatest exhibit of creamery butter\never made in Canada at one exhibition lo wit, S25 entries.

Germany\nmust try the alleged criminals fairly and punish them according to their deserts. Otherwise the allies are free to take action\nthemselves, in accordance with the original plan.\nThere is at least one positive advantage in the new\nproposal. Its acceptance by < Germany involves admission by\nGermany of the fact that the crimes charged as having been\ncommitted by the men mentioned in the allies' lists were crimes,\nand that they were not justified by the doctrines of \"necessity\"\n\u00ab which Bethman-Hollweg pleaded as Germany's excuse for\nly'hacking its way through\" Belgium. Germany does not, of\ncourse, admit that the men charged are criminals, but it will\nbe an important admission that the actions alleged are crimes\nand those accused of them should be tried as to their guilt or\ninnocence.\nAnother positive advantage is that if Germany conducts\nthe trials the criminals cannot claim that they have been\ntried and punished by biased enemy tribunals. They will not\nbe able to deck themselves with crown of martyrdom.\nOne of the most interesting questions which will arise will\nbe with regard to the kaiser. Will Germany ask Holland to\nextradite him? Will it then place him on trial? And, if found\nguilty, what punishment will a German court inflict? ,\n \u2014 -\"j-.*.\u2014\u2014~\nThe Kootenay Lake Road Connection\nHEARST ANTI-BRITISH\nVENOM\nThe proposal of Roland Ellis that the road which is being\nbuilt to connect with Kuskanook should be extended along the\nlake shore so, as to enable automobiles to drive as far as possible\nbefore crossing the lake, with the idea,that they should then be\nferried at some point near to Balfour is entirely in accord\n\u2022with the road policy of the Nelson board of trade and other\norganizations which have been working for a through highway.\nMr. Ellis is quite right. Nothing but a through highway\n\u25a0will be really satisfactory.\nBut it seems difficult to get the provincial government to\nI take any definite action toward building the comparatively small\nconnecting links of road which are required along the lake\nshore.\nHence, in order to get some sort of through connection\n\u25a0so that automobile tourists and other traffic will be able to get\nTthrough to West Kootenay and Boundary this summer and fall\nTthe Kuskanook route is to be utilized, not as a permanent route,\n\u25a0but as a temporary expedient.\nUltimately, the general idea of Mr. Ellis' proposal must be\n|carried out.\nDangerous to Trade With a Nation of Doubtful Credit\nThe reason for the warning which the American Manufacturers' Export association has issued to its members against\npading with soviet Russia is obvious.\nThose who sell to soviet Russians may never get paid.\nThey are taking a long chance, unless some special arrangements for liquidation of Russian debts can be made.\nThey take a long chance because of the unsettled conditions\nIn Russia, a country wliich is controlled by a government which\nTides not hesitate to announce that it will repudiate its debts,\npr to declare that it considers it has no legal or moral\nresponsibility to pay its creditors.\nIf Russia had a stable government elected by the whole\niussian people, conditions would be different. But with a\nIoviet organization, founded on soviet principles of the destruction of capital, the average exporter will not deal unless he has\nome special arrangement which will assure, him of payment\n[or his goods.\nThe present condition may not last long. It is to be hoped\nhat it will not, and that the steps -which are- to be taken\nthe allied governments to provide Russia with necessary\nipplies\u2014under some governmental arrangements which will\njsure payment\u2014will bring good results.\n| The world would like to trade with Russia and Russia\nill be in an embarrassing position until the world is able to\nlade with .it But the individual manufacturer cannot afford\ntake chances.\nThe Hearst journals continue their\nmalignant anti -British propaganda\nTheir poison is spread before Ignorant readers, day after clay, on made-\nin-Cariada paper, in illustrations, editorials, nnd distorted news despatches.
