'l‘o adjust the things disarranged by

the war, to heal the diseases caused by thc_ war and bring the nations back to order and sanity is a vastly different matter. _In handling the Germans we are dealing with flesh and blood, bringing them to terms by physical force. In restoring normal condi- tions in the world we shall be dealing witli~ human weak-nesses, human preyudices, hu- man selfishness, moral curvature of the spine brought about by unwholesome hab-

The abnormal prosperity resulting from-

the insistent market demands has led us

Over in the Pictou Coal Mines some two thousand men have gonc` on strike and as a result the output of coal already insufficient to meet the require- ments, has been reduced by 2,300 tons daily.

METZ

The eyes of the world as well as the guns

of the Americans are now turned upon Metz-Metz one of the oldest cities in tl‘-c world and one of the strongest fortrcsscf. in Europe. Surrounded by bastions and

ll'lCI‘€a.S€ demanded lS grallt-ed Hl€2lfl'1°ampaytS’ pieycgd Seven gateways,

a similar increase in all the other mines. The strikers are demanding an increase of fifteen per cent and a min1_mum _wage_of five dollars a day. They explain their posit- ion by asserting that the mine owners have doubled the price of coal in the past few years while they 'have made no propor- tionate increase in Wages. The mine own- ers, on the other hand, claim that the crease in the price of coal is due to in- creased railway rates, increased cost of management, increased wages to the cler- ical staff. The increased railway_rates are attributed to the high wages paid to_ rail- way ofiicials and employees; the railway attributes the increase in wages to the ab- normally high wages paid to employees in munitions factories and government wor_ks. And so, of necessity, one employ- er follows another 'in yielding to the de- mand for increased wages; one employee follows another in demanding it, and the consumer goes on paying the ever increas- ing bills. _

Where is it going to end? Business men

are agreed that at the present rate of wag- es, with normal traffic, the railways could not make ends meet without charging ex~l orbitant freight rates; that private cor- porations could not make ends meet with- out charging exorb’itant prices for their products. The exhorbitant prices are being paid while the abnormal demand exists: while the soldiers must be fed and clothed whatever the cost may be; while coal and munitions must be carried on the railways regardless of cost.

Some day, the day we are all praying for

when the war is over, when no more muni- tions will be required to be made at the rate of eight to ten dollars a day; when other employees will not be obliged to fol- low a lead in the payment of exorbitant wages; when demand and supply become normal, readjustment will be in order.

The problem looks -extremely difficult

inner defence is augmented by a circle of detached forts miles away, making it a formidable nut to crack, yet it is quite within the possibilities that the Americans will have it cracked in time to eat their Chrstmas dinner there, perhaps their Thanksgiving dinner. _

Julius Caesar found Metz an important

town. The Romans fortified it. Twice have the Huns plundered it-once in the fifth centur under Attilla a ain under Wil

army of 100,000 men, surrendergd to the Prussians. The conquerors, anxious to hold their loot, greatly _added to the fortificat-

man iron _industries and war supplies, the strategic end to the German lines of de- fence, the protection of the entrance to the Rhine valley. Obviously it will be stub- bornly defended. But the Americans are now only seven miles away, and just get- ting into their stride. It would be odd if the Yankees entered Metz by that his* »:‘ic gateway known as the “Door to Ger- many,” a portal built fifty years before the ldiscovery of America.

The spectacular doings of the Franco-

American forces on the 45-mile battle

the efforts of the British farther west for a few eventful days, but Haig’s men and the Canadians keep hammering at the doors of Cambrai and St. Quentin, and their progress during the past few days justifies the hope that both these cities will be in-Allied hands shortly. Should they obtain entrance their success will be of ev- en more importance that what is transpir- ing in Lorraine. Great things may be look- ed_for from the Cambrai-St. Quentin line. With these two big offensives 100 miles apart, another in Macedonia, going the same way and the Bolsheviki 'fleeing in terror before the Allied advance, the Hun

present conditions. Yet the adjustment to war conditions was accomplished in little over a week or two and the commerciali and industrial machinery swung along with scarcely a jar. There was this differ- ence however; in the former case it was a levelling up to higher prices for products, higher wages, a more general prosperity; in the next readjustment it 'will be the re- verse.The only preparation for this change possible at present, 'is first economy; sec- ond faith in and co-operation with our fine
