GERMANS BUILD HUGE GUNS FOR CALAIS NAVAL BASE ' (By Dally News Leased Wlro.) THH HAGUE, Oct, ill.—To tlie rumors that the Krupp works nt Kssen nre building 6(l-centlmetre gnus has now been added another by the claim that the same plant is turning out 00- centlmetre pieces. While it is hard to believe this, It must be borne tn mind that a siege piece of i:s centimetres, which was doubted before ihe war, has become a convincing reality. Since the Increase lu weight of a GCt-centlmetre, or 22-lnch gun, over a 42-centtmetre igun would not be very great and since the Increase |n a (ill- centlmetre or "Jllli-iiu'li gun over a 22- incher would be an almost negligible quantity, tbe existence of such pieces need not be doubted. If It Is possible to move over ordinary roads und across soft fields a gun weighing 2f> tuna it Is not unreasonable to expect that n gun weighing 35 tons would offer no new transportation problems. The case Is one ot Increase of motive power Instead of new aspects in transportation. No attention need be paid to the popular rumors making tho round in Germany that the new pieces are designed to bombard the English coast from the const of France. The extreme flight of the lii'^-lncli shell has recently been given aB about 12 kilometres for the "krumbabn" or high trajectory pleceB and HI kilometres for those having a flatter course. Since the increase in calibre from 10% to 23^ inches does not necessarily mean n proportionate lengthening range, It Is not Hkely that the Hnglish coast cities opposite Calais and other channel points will inako the acquaintance of the "Urumniers"—uh the Germans liavft come to call their large siege pieces. If the 60 nnd ii0-cen timet re pieces should actually ejflst their use, more or less well Informed circles iliere assort, would consist of arming some naval base on the channel which the Germans hope to establish during the course of the war. It Is maintained that Calais hus been decided on as the best locality for such a base and tho Krupp work ts In a measure due to thin.

CONFER REGARDING FINANCE PROBLEMS Britain Sends Representative to Talk Things Over With Authorities at Washington—Cotton Pool Factor (By Dally Newa Leased Wire.) WASHINGTON, Oct. 19.—Sir George Palsh, special adviser to the British chancelor of the exchequer; Basil U. Blackett of lhe English treasury, Secretary MeAdoo and the federal reserve board today began a series of conferences here which are expected to have a most Important effect upon financial conditions in both Great Britain and the United States. Restoration of normal conditions in foreign exchange dealings between the two countries Is tho object of the meetings and they probalbly will have a direct Influence upon the disposition of the south's enormous cotton crop. Although (here was no formal discussion today of nny plans which may eventually be put forth by tho British or .by the reserve Iboard, it became known tonight that officials of the United States government feel keenly that cotton Is the crux of a situation which has many ratifications and that upon the success of plans to care for surplus cotton and upon the (Willingness nf manufacturers to buy cotton more thnn upon nny oilier things depends the value of Sir George's visit. It Is probable that before Sir Georg, returns lo England a reopening of Lrndon and New York stock exchanges will be considered. It Is reported here tonight that the London exchange would open shortly with the British government urging that London 'brokers shall not call loans immediately. If the London market is not greatly affected its resumption of 'business may be followed by the opening of the New York exchange. Depends on Cotton Problem So much depends, however, on the solution of the cotton problem that there probably will [be no further con- fer;mcfs until a commltiee of the board which is-wrestllng with the proposed $150,000,000 cotton loan fund plan has found a solution satisfactory to the board, to the banks and the expected 'borrowers. New York bankers have promised lo put up one-third of the loan fund but prescribed certain conditions which it wns discovered could not be easily met. The members proposed different conditions and as u further inducement offered to let the northern section of the United Slates put up three dollars lo every one put up by southern 'hanks with the understanding of course that the northern banks would have a prior lien for their money. Under this tentative plan the banks of the sou h would grt the actual management of the fund, the whole, however, to be under the supervision of the federal reservte board. This counter plan has not been passed upon finally.

United States Owes Much According to Information here, Si: George Palsh did not come to Wash Ington with any plan to present; he came upon Invitation to hear such plans as the United States government may have to meet American debts to British merchants. It was said tonight that the British bankers and merchants have coming to them from the Unl.ed States more than $200,000,000. They know this country has about $1 000,000,000 In gold and are at a loss to understand why when Britain does business on probably a third less gold the United States is not anxious to men Its cibl'gatlon now In that metal. No matter what plan Is worked out It Is necesnry for Sir George to return to England for a personal presentation to the British cabinet or to carry on correspondence with his government by cable. He has no authority to accept any proposal and probably none to refuse any. There Is little doubt expressed here that th>> visiting Britishers will use every effort to yield as much as possible to American advances. Sir George visited the reserve board in company with the British ambassador. Kirller In the day he called at the White House and talked with President Wilson.

TUESDAY, OCTOBER 20 TH E BRITISH NAVY. determining feature as to the pro- tongation of Mils war; It is now about two and a half months since tlie war has begun; and reviewing the condition or mutters after the lapse of this time it cannot but be conceded that no other single ■power has ever in the past placed in the field and maintained there so I'.ieat a military force as the mighty (Jerniiin hosis that are now locked in the ereat struggles with the allied forces in France and with the Russians In the east. While the power of Austria ito rejndcr effective a!d tu her ally seems to bo a thing of the past, It cannot yet be said at the end of these two and a half months that there has been any decisive result un tho field of battle between the Cernian armies and the nliles and Russians. Never in the world's history has there been such a conflict—so many men engaged In it with such tenacity on both sides. This statement or Itself does not by any means cover the ground as to the effect °f tbe war upon the countries engaged in it and upon their ability to continue the war. On the one side are Britain and France, while of course sustaining some inconveniences in the conduct of their business, still tree to trade und trad lh"g with the world outside of German:- and Austria. The extent of Britain's oversea business in September has sur- passed the moat optimistic hopes and hus created the impression that her trade is rapidly recovering from the set-back which it had a\ the first shock of war. in D re* months it Is anticipated that her whole forelf-'U trado will have readjusted itseir lo Ihe new conditions without any serious Impairment. It is, however, quite otherwise with Germany and AustrMIungary, which mo almost completely blockaded und are prevented from carrying on an.. foreign Hade worth mentioning1. Cor niany's great Industrial system has been brought lo a BtandEt.ll, Her wonderful mercantile murine has disappeared Pom the ocean. Her foreign trade oi' some five billions of dollars annually has been wiped out. Her toreign markets are all ^onc. Her colonial possessions are passing away from her. And with these her means C. continuing the war arc fast dwindling away. And in addition to all tltlis he food supply is fast diminish* in;;. Uoth Germany; and Auslro-Hung.iry ure foul importing countries. They liave many largo cities, and do not produce sufficient food for their own uho. And this year's harvest cannot have been well saved. Tho war had been declared and mobilizing had begun before the harvest had begun, 'lti addition to this, they cannot bring in the needed raw materials lor their muuufuctui ing establishments. There Is thus a vivid contrast presented between the condition of Britain and Franco and Germany and AiiBtro-liiingary. And the cause or this difference is tlie navy of Great "Britain, which has been able to block- ade the potts of her adversaries and to Keep open her own sea lanes. The mere inertia of Britain's naval power has sufficed to bring commercial isolation und stagnation to commercial Germany, und to prevent the importation of needed food supplies. This isolation by the. British navy of her adversaries and the results of that isolation wlll, It appears, be a largely THE GERMAN AIM. To what extent the Prussian idea that it is Germany's destiny to dominate t,he world hus obsessed the German mind is indicated hy a letter written by Herr C. A. Patzig, a former member of the reichslag. says the Hamilton Herald. It was published in a Chicago German paper and reprinted In Der Courier, a German weekly published In Regina. Hcrr Patzig is a member of the National Liberal party, but his letter shows that bis sentiments are anything but liberal, judged by our standards of liberalism. Indeed, they are tho sentiments of the Prussian junker class and oi' the Prussian war party, "Which people Is to be supreme on tills terrestrial ball?" That, according to this German -ibcrnl, Is the question to be decided by the present war. "Tlie idea that people may be left to themselves," lie continues, "is exploded. Just as each of the different peoples must it- elf have a ruler, so does the develop- ug or peoples, if it is to be progressive, demand that one of them shall exercise sovereignty. Yes, indeed, sovereignty. And for this reason the die has been cast, and had to be cast, to decide whether tho Anglo-Saxon, the Pan-Slav or the continental German should fill tliis office.'* But HerrPatzig is not foolish enough to think that the task which Germany faces, the tatik or hewing Iter way to world supremacy and sovereignty :imong the peoples, will prove an easy one. "Even lr we were in Paris and Warsaw," ho writes, "perhaps also in U'ga, and even in iteval, the enemy would not he crushed to the point of accepting peace conditions such as we would have to dictate to be assured of supremacy in the old world and to Htabllsb that under no clrcumstanci "JOUld third parties wage war against our will or at any rute become Irksome to us." •Not the Slav, not the Anglo-Celtic people, bin the German people must rule the world. That is what the wnr Is being waged for, says tliis German Liberal. And suppoao Hint in this war Geiman armies should triumph and Germany should come out of it the unchallenged mistress of Europe— would her ambition then he satisfied? Not, we Jimy bo certain, until every oilier power which threatens her world supremacy is crushed nlso. in the easL there would be Japan to crush, ami in the west the United Stales— for, remember, tlie Ando-Saxon peoples as well as the Shvs must be compelled to acknowledge the mastery o/ the Teuton. Let it be understood that theso aspirations nre not confined to a few German militarists, drunk with success. They aro the teachings of hundreds or professors in German universities, of popular authors In countless hooks. They havo long been tlie patriotic, daily bread of Ihe youth of Germany, until tlie whole nation now marches to the (une of Germany Over All. All. Is it an idle dream which they cherish? Well, the German people are the most efficient in the world, and for a whole general ion they have been planning and preparing to make their dream come true, ir they ure to be foiled in their high ambition it will not be through railing at them. Iu;i by fighting them. •'f-9999-i/i - -,■<•■*••'•, n9 *-.'-!>'>s's^>*.'>> •> 9 ■ WHAT THE PRESS IS SAYING • v9<t^v^-9^/9^'i^^i>9^-'t^-99^99,99' Belgium's Glory.

GERMANS IN RUSSIA WOULD MAKE TROUBLE Foreign Minister Comments on At- temps to Make Breach Between Petrograd and London. (By Daily News t-e'isc-tl Wire.) PETROORAD, Oct. 20.-M. Sazanoff, the Itussian minister of foreign affairs, today Iu a statement to the Associated Press, clearly defined Russia's attitude toward the allies and her stand against Germans In Russia, Ihe statement said, was made because of attempts by the reactionary party in Russia to bring discord and awaken anti-British sentiment. Recent avowals by this small element as reflected In a few reactionary journals, ho declared, went so far as to compliment Emperor Wil* Hnmr and laud his family. They alluded exultantly; he says, to the fall or Antwerp as the approaching end of the war; adversely criticized Britain, saying that she was setting other countries to righting her buttles and also plainly forecast nn Anglo-Russian rupture. "This small German element," said M. Sazanoff, "is wholly unrepresentative of Russia. Totally ignorant of for- eigii policies they arc still under the sentiment of a century ago "once for all the world ought to he warned against taking seriously thc efforts or this Ill-advised minority or allowing this small element 'made in Germany-' to spread abroad their attempts to shake the good faith bc» I ween Britain and Russia. "1 want to say most emphatically that there will bo no rupture between Kngland and Russia and that there Is no possibility or a premature settlement with Germany contrary to our agreement with our allies, it Is pre- posterous to think that this element in Russia is going to have any hand in dictating Russia's policy during this war. The attempts of the Gorman nress to poison or pervert reeling all over the world has railed, at least in Russia.'1 MAY BE FOUL PLAY (Ry Dally News Leased Wlro.) NEW YORK, Oct. ID.—Prank 15.

CANADIANS IN CAMP PLAY BALL Patriotic British in New York Sent Some of Recruits, Volunteers Relate. (By Dally "Nows Leased Wlro.) SALISBURY, England, Oct. IP.—Except for a few detachments working With the supply and horse transport trains all the Canadians have arrived at their four camps scattered over Salisbury plain. Tho early arrivals, who have completed their camp making, amused themselves today by playing baseball and football. Among the players there appeared a surprising number of sweaters bearing the winged loot, emblem of the New York Athletic club. One of these sweater wearers said that patriotic Britons residing in New York had enabled more than -',000 recruits to join the Canadian contingent. A general air of cheerfulness prevails among tho Canadians but some grumbling is heard because of the isolation of the various camps. None o: them is within four miles from even a village and seven miles sepa ates-tne nearest of them from any considerable town. The prohibition rule imposed on the Valcartler camp In Canada by Col. Sam Hughes, Ihc Canadian minister of militia and defense, rules here and is being rigidly enforced. The slowness or the Canadians in reaching camp has caused a postponement of any attempt of a review of Ihe troops and it Is expected that Gen. Alderaon will take command without tho usual ceremony.

BELGIAN EXILES ARE GREAT PROBLEM Between Three and Four Hundred Thousand Are in Holland, Hundred Thousand in Britain. (By Dally News Leased Wire.) LONDON, Oct. 10.—Tlie population of Belgium steadily is becoming what a French writer terms a "nation in exile." The burden of this tragedy is falling on Great Britain, Holhitd and France. Between 300,000 and 400,000 ..Belgians have crossed their border into Holland and equal numbers have flocked southward into France, while moro than 100,000 have arrived on English shores and refugees me continuing to pour across the English channel dally. While their eventual repatriation or their absorption into the populations of other countries rises on tho horizon as one of tho great problems of modern European history, the question of today is the care of the exiles und the feeding of the millions of persons remaining in Belgium whose industries are paralyzed, A member of the British relief committee, speaking today oi the situution, said: "This business alone would bo sufficient to tax tiie energies of the government and the country even if we did not have a war on our hands. "The hospitality of the people of Folkestone and Dover is being taxed to the limit, while the town of Deal Is swamped under tiie wave of refugees, half starveM and with wrecked nerves from terror und privations they have undergone." The principal Brussels newspaper begliiB publication iu London Wednesday. Its ediitor says that the Belgians fleeing from their country wlll never return if It remains under German rule.

LOSS OF LIMBS IN WAR SMALL Only Ten Amputations in Two Months Are Performed at Important Base Hospital (By Dally News Leased Wire.) PARIS, Oct. 19.—The Journal des Dtihats says that during thc first two months of the arrival of wounded at Vichy hospital, where the most important operations aro performed, the average of the operations Wub 20 per day out of 8,000 cases treated. Of these (iOO operations no more than 10 were amputations and among the 10 were some of single fingers and parts of fingers only, This very small pro portion of amputations In comparison with the wounded of preceding wars Ii accounted for, first, by thc difference in the effects of modern projectiles, which have not so much tendency to produce slivers of, 'bone. The wound Is more localized and cleaner cut then formerly. In tjie second place, surgical science has progressed and wounds that would have formerly required the amputation of the member arc now treated with a view to saving It. There Is less sickness In the French army after two months on the battlefield than In times of peace, due to the efficiency and preparedness of the military health service, according to Prof, Edmund de Lorme, medical In spoetor of the French army and i member of the academy of medicine. Since the beginning of the war he has been on an official mission of in spcctlon of field and other hospital; where French wounded have been treated. COLD STEEL MEDICINE Still imbued with tho joy which twept the British ranks at Mons when bey completely checked the German advance, a young Infantryman was very picturesque in his details of the fight. "The 'sausages,' as we call them, didn't know quite so much about ut then," he said, "and thought that their odds of two to one were sufficient, but they had a lesson. I suppose they imagined our shooting was as erratic and wide as theirs—the worst I've ever soon—for they came straight ahead without bothering much about taking cover. We hud the time of nur lives Bhootlng the silly beggars down, and on this first day .there weren't quite enough of them to force us away by sheer weight of numbers, although they continually --repeated their desperate attacks. We stopped them every time, but on Monday they came rolling up In huge masses which must have put us In a minority of one to three, four and eventually I should Imagine at least five. Their artillery lire was terribly heavy, too, although they could have made much better use Of their g„ns if they could have handled them as our artillery would have dime, and for some time we had none too pleasant visions of being driven into Mauftjou-ge fortress, still, most of us thought wc could hobd out all right, and there was some 'grousing' when we were ordered to retire. Wo all hud faith In our superiors, however, To give the devils their dill —and t'hey are devils when they get a ohanco to vent their rage on our wounded—thoy don't seem the least hit to mind being shot The awful gulps caused Jn their ranks by our carefully directed fire are immcdlalelv filled up and thoy rush straight atactic) in the face of a regular hail of lend, but the sight of cold steel seems to unnerve them absolutely," their mot!.'

Mining News CLOSE OF WAR MEANS BIG DEMAND FOR COPPER So Declares President of Granby Company—Hidden Creek Properties Have Great Future, President W. H. Nichols of the Granby Consolidated Mining, Smelting & Power company went on record at the annual stockholders' meeting iu New York with the prediction tliut the Hidden Creek property would develop Into the lowest cost copper producer In the world. About a dozen stockholders attended uie session, which voted to reduce tlie number of directors from 14 to 13, thereby eliminating the vacancy caused by tbe death of George, M. Luther, former president. Other directors were re-elected. Asked about dividend prospects President Nichols said tbe matter was dependent upon the war situation and that if war continued for any length of time very few copper mining companies would be able to continue on dividend basis. "There Is less copper In tiie world now than for some years," lie said. "But there is leas being used. When the war clouds roll over I believe there will be a heavy demand for the metal and for a while at least there will not be enough to go around." Stockholders voted approval of issuance of $060,000 series A convertible 0 per cent bonds, made to take care of an equal amount of unsecured loans which fell due last year. Half of bonds were taken by the American Metal company and tho remainder by individuals Interested in the company's development. For the fiscal year ended June 30 Granby company reported: 1914. 1913.

The Snowsboe mine added 110,000 tons to reserves, while drilling and other development work increased this by 142,084 tons. At Phoenix there wero 4,691,531 tons of developed ore at the fiscal year-end. The Grand Forks smelter smelted 1,225,745 tons of ore, yielding 21,181,000 pounds of copper, 407,500 ounces of silver and 48,232 ounces of gold. The smelting and converting cost wus $1128 a ton; tlie operating mine cost of ore shipped was 80 cents. General Manager Sylvester (gives the Hidden Creek property 9,583,500 tons of -'.2 per cent copper ore, an increase of 1,803,050 tons during the year. In addition there is an estimated tonnage of 8.580.500 tons of .0 per cent ore, much of which carries from I per cent to 1 1*4 per cent copper. The Miidas, near Valdez, Mamie at Miulley and Dean mine on Prince of Wales Island, Alaska, have been purchased during the year, while an option was taken on the It mine near lhe Dean. Working options wero also taken on old mines north of Vancouver, The various properties have ore in sight aa follows: Phoenix. 4,t;!M.53I tons; .\nyox, 18,- 163,000; Midas, 110,344; Mamie. 135,- 200; It-Dean, 5,000; total. 23,101,075. The Phoenix recovery averages 17 pounds copper, ,o:i;t ounces of gold and ,2 ounces of sliver. Auyox averages 18,153,tuiu tons of 1 per cent cop- l>er or 9,503.000 tons of 2.2 per cent copper, while gold and silver will total 30 cents a ton. Mining cost will average $1 a ton, against 80 cents for Phoenix. Midas ore averages 4 per cent copper, .005 ounces gold and ,46 ounces sliver. This can be mined and delivered for V- a ton. The Mamie win average 2 1-4 per cent copper and -." to 60 cents gold and silver. It ore should run $15 to $20 a Ion. Granby has divided its properties Into four operating units—southeastern British Columbia, British Columbia coast, southwest Alaska from Skagway west, and soul hern Alaska. Bach district will have a local superintendent. The Auyox smelter, the new plant at Hidden Creek, should be able to produce 2.400.1100 pounds or copper monthly, according to management plans, or at the rate of 28,800,000 pounds a year. This statement was mnde by President Nichols to stockholders at their annual meeting. There has been spent on new construction about $3.0iiii.iHiO and while this work lias but ended, a reverbcra- tory furnace may be added to the Anyox smelter. The existing units may eventually be enlarged to handle a greater tonnage of ore than now planned for. The policy of expansion, adopted several years ago, will be continued. In addition to acquisition of the Midus. Mamie and Dean mines and ihe working option on the It mine, near thc Dean, the company has other properties under examination, some of which are expected to develop satisfactorily, Tiie Midas and Mamie mines could have been prepared for shipments by Oct; 1. but work was suspended pending Improved copper market conditions, The Anyox investment now stands at $2,888,737, against $2,038,180 on June 30.

GRANITE CREEK PLACER CAMP AGAIN IS ACTIVE Granite Creek, B, C. an old time placer cump In the Simllkameen, the scene of many historic episodes and gold stampedes of bygone days, has lost nothing of Its mineral attractions. It is the opinion of experienced gold hunters tbat the placers here arc by no means exhausted, and that both bar and bench diggings will well repay systematic mining. Some large nuggets and .coarse gold ■with platinum have been taken from the creek this summer. Miners have had satisfactory returns from pay- streaks and all are encouraged with the season's operations, it is estimated that about $5,000 in gold and platinum have been extracted from the creek this season.

MINING INVESTMENTS PAY INVITING PROFITS There aro many astute investors scattered throughout tho country who have learned that rational investment In mining is the most profitable avenue through which large profits may reasonably be expected to accrue from modest sums, says the Nevada. Mining News. Their number is small compared to the hundreds of thousands of men and women of ordinary means who put their money in savings banks and low interest rate bonds, or pay in- fluted prices for railroad or Industrial slocks, but the number is growing every year. This is especially true since the spasm of speculation of six, seven und eight years ago gave way to the new era. In those feverish times mining was a gamble and thc average promoter played the stocjj market lor his profits. Nowadays it is different. The promoter who stayed with mining through the lean years that followed the Cioldfleld boom, a period of feverish excitement which, fortunately was summarily ended by the panic of seven years ago, is made of sterner stuff. He is In the mining business because he realizes the largo returns that are certain when succ<jis crown bis efforts. During tlie lean period he has not been idle and has touud thnt these same dull days have worked to his advantage in one way, namely, that claim owners ure much more reasonable ln their demands than In the days of old, when almost any showing would satisfy the sharm ei. who merely wanted a certain acrei age on which to sell stock. He has found, also, that the science of metal* lurgy has made wonderful advunces, iu consequence of which ore that formerly could not be mined and shipped and smelted at a profit now may bo counted upon for certain dfvldend.s. He has found that railroad rates are lower, timber is cheaper and electrlo power lines huve penetrated almost every part of the wilderness. Tbo mining promoter, therefore, is able to present to the public a mining proposition with all the dishonesty and much of the risk of former days elim* mated, but still possessing the possibility of profit of several hundred per rent,, r ____*___ PAGE SIX MMMaftp $etos*!

"NEW YORK, Oct. 19,—Reopening of the eastern freight rate ease before the interstate commerce commission, the excellent condition of the local banks as disclosed by last week's statement, continued progress in the formation of the gold anil cottou pools *nd an easier tone to foreign exchange ■combined to put Wall street in a more cheerful frame of mind today. The decline !r. bills on (London, while accompanied by little actual business, was accepted as an augury of further relaxation by foreign powers of American maturing obligations. There was a revival of recent rumors dealing with the early resumption on the local exchange, but In conservative quarters this was received with a degree of reservation. Regardless of contrary statements the belief persists that this market cannot safely renew operations until Ix>n- don points the way. The presence in this country of a representative of the British exchequer and the approaching termination of the moratorium in England will, it is expected, give rise to interesting developments at this point in the near future. Outflow of gold to Canada continues In moderate volume. The total already placed at Ottawa to the credit of the Punk of England is said to be sufficient foi* all temporary requirements. An abstract of reports made by some 700 national banks to the comptroller of the currency on his recent call reveajf the fact that these institutions hold clearing house certificates aggregating $53,000,000, with an Increase in bank notes of almost ?200,- ■000,000, while individual deposits are smaller by about ?150,000,l)00, These ■figures give significance to the steady , reduction of loan certificates now beting made at most reserve centres. I A further gain in western merchnn- ' disc tonnage appears to be largely due to shipments of manufacturers in meeting foreign orders for war materials, the movement so far as it relates to foodstuffs showing irregularity. In fact, grain receipts at Chicago were under those of the preceding week but about those of the corresponding period last year.

Phone 10 Store of Quality •v FACTORIES AND ARMAMENTS <S 9 9 (Contributed.) | When this war Is through with ItH •World-wreckage the world will be full of pacifists. Those >who formerly admired the art of war and the life of the soldier will begin to realize with the poet thnt "Pence too hath her victories no less renowned than ■war." We shall ibegin to agree with Alfred -Noyes when he wrote that lurid indictment of war called "The Wine Press." We shall believe that Andrew Carnegie, with nil his odd notions about public libraries and pipe organs, knew that war is the eternal enemy of industry when ho spent $2,000,000 on the palace of Peace at Thc Hague. Meanwhile the war is going on. It intends to keep going on until war is crushed clean out of the world. And ■when it Is over this country will discover that war with all Its horrors Is nothing but the hugest kind of satire on the folly of spending thousands of millions In armaments that might have been spent in factories, railways and warehouses, civic improvements and comfortable homes. When the war is over the efficient peoples of the earth will remember that one smokestack with a thousand men under It is worth more to the world than n thousand men on a warship loaded With thousands of tons of guns, armor plate and engines of destruction. Canadians will remember that our industrial workers are a more potential army for the welfare of civilization than all tho armies of Germany fighting in the cause of "culture" bas- -ed upon brute force and explosives. But the power of Canadian industry, greater than of war, depends upon the army of industrial workers being kept together In u common ea" The nation with power plants Idle half the year and Us payrolls of men on hnlf timc is less than half efficient in the business of overcoming the earth and building up the economics of clvllizu- , tion. A smokestack on a factory is worth n thousand smokestacks on warships. Rut the smokestacks of prosperity can only 'he kept going in this country so long ns the people of Canada stand behind the Industrial workers und the manufacturers of Canada. The people who believe in the triumphs of peace must prove their belief 'by spending their money for thc goods made by their fellow-countrymen. Those who most deprecate war nre those who do most to build up their own country in a time of peace and thereby make war Impossible. - It is the dollars of Canada spent In purchasing the goods made by Canadians that tell In the great struggle of 'this part of the world against the dia ybolleal economic waste of war.

PATRIOTIC PLEDGES BY MANUFACTURERS Walkerville, Ont., Business Men Start . Campaign to "Keeep Dollar at Home." WALKERVILLE, Ont., Oct. ID.— "Keep the Dollar ilt Home," Is the keynote nt a patriotic campaign instituted by the board of trade, Walkerville, Ont,, which In its practical results bids fair to be of considerable importance. The Walkerville board has entered on this campaign In a thoroughly business-like manner, adopting n pictorial trade-mark, also a patriotic slogan which It invites other boards of trade throughout Canada to adopt. Walkerville's Patriotic Trade Mark. The secretary of the Nelsun hoard of trade has been Sent by the Walkerville- board of trade a copy of the trade mark, also copies of the patriotic proclamation, which has been sent broadcast through Canada by the Walkerville manufacturers and wholesalers, This proclamation is very handsomely printed In four colors and is headed as follows: "The Dominion of Canada has a clettr duty and well defined course in defending the Mother Country. What Is yolir patriotism worth? "Remember that Canada's best contribution t„ the defense Of the Empire Is to keep hard at work providing food and other necessities of life Let's forget our little quarrels and show our patriotism by hard work." Well known Walkerville firms have sen-t these proclamations at their owl- expense to their dealers throughout the Dominion with the request that they be Posted simultaneously in the windows of retail stores and elsewhere. This campaign is a purely unselfish one and is based on the theory that it is the patriotic duty of the manufacturers to keep their employees at work, full time If possible, during -the war. Als0 thai the manufacturers can do this only if the consumer in Giriadn will spend, his money for Canadian goods only. FRENCH CONSUL AT NEW YORK CALLED TO COLORS (By Dally News Lensed Wire.)
