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-

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

“That a blunder was made in ever
submitting the conscription issue to
the people must now be readily accep-
ted by all. A nation, in seeking such `_
powers as that sought by the Federal
Parliament should have taken 'counsel
of its ‘braves.’ of its fighting men only.
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. The loafer and shirker

those that may be more or less closely rela-

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

control of this wealth from the present
