THURSDAX, EQBRUARY 19, V1920. run rxrrnii STATES IMBROGLIO.

_ That troubles do not come singly has’ been amply verified in the United States during the past week. ' Owing to the foreign exchange situation the bottom has dropped out_of the meat business the largest ex- port item in their list. The investigation into their war record has brought to light a chapter of war profiteering and Corruption for which there is prob- ably no parallel. The quarrel between President Wilson and Secretary Lansing, resulting in the resig- nation of _the latter and the expected resignation of other cabinet ministers, has created a political situ- ation the full significance of which, to outsiders at least, is difficult to fathom.

Looking backward over the situation which has culminated in this political tragedy there are incid- ents which even the proverbially clever “Philadelphia lawyer” will find puzzling.“ It will be remembered that President Wilson was the father of the League of Nations proposition. Neither Premier Lloyd- George nor Premier Clemenceau was enamored of the idea and they both foresaw difficulties rather than abiding peace in the scheme. They acquiesced in President Wilson’s proposition however and‘ the League of Nations became a fact-on paper.

When the President. on his return to the United

States looked for the recognition of hischild by the

Senateit was promptly declined and a controversy arose which has not yet ended. The President there- upon undertook to stump the country in the interests of the League of Nations while prominent senators took the stump aginst it. The President took sick. During his illness Lord Grey, appointed British am- bassador to the United States, came over to enter upon his duties but the President was too ill to re- ceive his credentials and as a result his ambassador- ship became null and void and after a pleasant so- journ of some three months as a private but highly respected citizen he returned to England. During this time also, His- Royal Highness the Prince of Wales paid a short visit to the United States. He called upon the President and, according to ‘the tele. ‘graphed reports, he and the President had the time of their lives together. Why the President could not receive Lord Grey oﬁicially, which was all that was required to give "the latter his status as Ambassador is one of the mysteries. . ' During the President’s illness also, Secretary Lansing, upon whose shoulders fell the full respon- sibility of the country’s foreign relations, called a number of informal cabinet meetings, doubtless for advice and consultation. For ‘this the President re- primanded him and asked for his resignation. But other things happened during the President's illness and of which the President ‘had not been advised. One of these was‘ the selection of Elihu Root as the “distinguished American citizen” to help organize the International Court of Justice in Europe. Ap- paren'tly the President heard of this about the time he heard of Secretary Lansing’s cabinet meetings and it may have added to the heinousness of the latter offence- Yesterday our telegrams announced the rumor- ed resignation of Secretary of War Baker. A few weeks ago Franklin Lane resigned from the cabinet. Other resignations are talked of and the end is not yet. .

The Patriot evidently has a conveniently short memory when it suits its controversial methods. Yes- terday it asserted that it searched the columns of the Guardian in vain with regard to our suggestion for the maintenance of the Rena McLean Memorial Hos- pital. In our issue of November 22 we referred to the Patriot’s report of the intended closing of the in- stitution and concluded our article as follows :-

“It is sincerely to be hoped that the institution will not be closed and that, if it be not required for its‘ original purpose, the Dominion Government will find other means of utilizing it. It would make an

TER LIGHT WITH THE CHIMNEY ONT

When a lump is burning without a chimney ii generally smokes. ’l‘hat isbeciiuse the oil which is coming up through the wick is being only partially burned. The carbon.‘ which is about one-halt o! what the oil contains, is not being burned at all, and goes oil into the air in little black specks with the gases which are thrown oil. The reason the carbon is not burned when the chimney is off is that there is not sufficient oxygen from the air combining with it. as It l! separated from the oil in the par- tial combustion that is going on.

A boy of eighteen wrote me u letter the other day that made me very happy. He snitl that the slm~ pie every-day suggestions were the things that helped him most. and to keep writing ilieni. Here is .i very old one-hut it will never be too old to use— ' ~ Always do your best.

Some other chap may get more money than you do, hut unless he i always does his best. you will pass liiin in the race. i love the work of the uncleuts—ior they worked for the pure fun and pride oi produc- ing lusting and beautiful things. As you grow in years, you will get more fully the greatness ‘behind ivliut they had in’ mind when they worked.

Alwiiye do your best.

Never waver. Keep a clean mint] nnd heart. Think oi’ the interests oi‘ other poople—iiutl always keep doing your BEST!
