THIRD .\.\'.\`l\`ERS.\RY OF \\'.\R

Three years of war and the end is not-

yet. It would be useless to deny that many hopes indulged Since the beginning of the war have not been realized; useless also to deny that what we knew aboutthe war and'

its possibilities three years ago was pain- -

fully little. We have learned much during those three eventful years, have received many surprises, solne disappointments and many causes for jubilation but through _ cloud and sunshilic there has never been a moment of doubt as to the ultimate issue, never a lnoment of faltering on the part of those who set ollt to establish world free- dom alid to right the wrongs of oppressed

nations. _

Of the events of the past year, the

third ear of the war, it must be admitted that tlle sum total has not come up to the expectations of the beginning of the year On the 4th of August 1916, as stated in a review of thesituation by Colonel Frank Simonds, the Russian offensive in Bukowi- na and Galicia had surpassed all previous achievements in trench warfare on the Al- lied side. The armies of Brusiloff were -»\

It is clear now that none of these expec-

tations were to be realized in that year, and it is equally clear that there never was any great chance of their being realized. in the first and second years of the war Germany had created that Mittleuropa which was the dream of her politicians, of _her statésmen and of her soldiers for twen- ty years before the outbreak of the War, and in 1916-’17 there was still lacking to

It should have been a question put to men of military age only and put in another form. Instead -of that it was decided by the women’s vote, and the vote of old men. and women, frighten- ed by the tales putup bythe unscrup- lous Laborites, who didn’t hesitate to put their great organization to work to accomplish the downfall of those over them in the political world, not for the sake of a principle, but for the sake of office.

should be confused with other issues, even those that may be more or less closely rela- ted. We believe that nothing should be allowed to interfere with _ the immediate business of winliing the war. Conscription for military service has been shown to be necessary. The same principle may need to be applied to some other forms of ser- vice, especially transportation and ship- building. But let these be dealt with inde- nendently. And we do not believe that it is the proper time for launching the nation upon a great and doubtful -experiment of economic or industrial socialism If it is wise that heavier taxes should ' be levied, let us call things by their right names in- stead of confusing the issue by speaking of conscription of wealth. If the latter allur- ing term means confiscation of wealth we fear that the nation’s strength would not be greatly augmented by transferring the control of this wealth from the present
