Public opinion forced its hand in this matter nnd insisted on the internment of "alien enemies." When the Government realized that the people were in earnest it did what it might just as easily have done at first, amended its Order in Council to cover such cases. There was no difficulty, nnd nothing tn be overcome, but reluctance. Public opinion equally demands an investigation into the position nf naturalized subjects, and this is all the more necessary because this class of citizen lias not yet, except in a few isolated instances, followed the example of his fellow countrymen in Grout Brittnin, and openly denounced German policy. It is perhaps too late now to do this, or at any rate too late for it to produce the desired effect on public opinion, it should have been done when Belgium wits invaded, and the atrocities so pitilessly set forth in Lord Bryce's report, committed. Tt might have been done with some effect when the Lusitania was sunk. These opportunities were allowed to slip, and as a result naturalized Canadians of German birth will find it difficult to reinstate themselves in popular, favor for a long time to eonie. On the 27th May a meeting nf naturalized British subjects of German and Austrian origin was held in London, for the purpose of declaring their true allegiance to the King, their attachment to the country, and their condemnation of the methods of war adopted by Germany. A number of prominent men took part in the proceedings, nnd a very specific resolution was unanimously carried at a meeting of nearly two thousand. The Week can only express regret that some such slop has not been taken by loyal naturalized the simple' life, even though it be a matter nf compulsion, but they will gain infinitely more in self respect by making sacrifices tn the common weal.
