THE THIRTY -HOUR WEEK Referring to the labor unions; here and in Britain, which are demanding a 30 -hour week, s farmer said the other day "I don't quite nohow they expect to get along and workonly 30 hours in a week. Why many farmers work 16 hours in one day. There's something wrong somewhere if these fellows can get along and work only 30 hours in a week." It must look ower to the man who works f rom- l 2 to 16 hours a day to see men who have been working only eight or nine hears going on strike tee. enforce a 30 hour week. For the labor unions it may be said that the better element, composed of the native born British, Canadians and Americans, are not in favor of the ex: treme measures. The element favoring the 30- hour week correspond to the Bol- shevik' of Russia and the Reds of Ger- many, and the liklihood is that the movement Is engineered by men from those countries. These men see no connection between work and reward. They regard em- ployers—capitalists as they call them— aa sources of wealth to be exploited one way or another. If they must work for the capitalist to get money from him, they will work—but as little as possible. If they could get his money by robbery, they would adopt that means as readily According to their code, the capitalist has no rights that are entitled to res- pect—has no rights to existence, in fact Bill Haywood, leader of the I W W in the -United States, once said in ad dressing a meeting of working men, that the working day would have to be reduced not only to Sign hours but to six or even three and &half hours. That, of course, sounded well to men whose only understanding of business is to get what the other fellow has --for some- thing if one must give it, but for noth- ing if one can get it that way. These I. W. W. and lioisheviki elem- ents not only are unwilling tv work - themselves, but they are prepared to prevent others from working. They really have their eye, upon the accum- ulated wealth of the world, and want to get at it and divide it up. Nothing but the police prevents this. It may be that all of our social ar- rangements are nct as they should be— that. some work much and g t little. while others work little and get much; but those Reds have not the remedy. They would turn the world back to savegry. MAIL SERVICE BY AIR '1'bz engagement of the United States in the war is going to result in that country developing an elaborate aerial mail service between the main cities at a much earlier date than it would other - wise have been developed - Among its war preparations was the expenditure of one billion and five hun- dred million dollars upon aeronautic equipment. When the armistice was signed the 1'. S. War Department had on hand ten thousand airoplen3s, twenty thousand Liberty motors for planes which viers to be built, and 25,000 men ►d been trained.for the air -service with the army and Nevi,. ' `- At 0Tweihthe q -W to be done with all this valuable equip- ment? A solution ii found in turning the bulk of it over to the Post Office D3partment to be used in the distribut- ion of mail. In \lay last a daily mail service by aeropl ate, between Vtifashing- ion. and New York wad ettablished, and Its record hat; bed so sartte(aotaory Mut tnerti remains bu dub Whatever as to the passibilitlet of suddees. On tai i route the avattors started, regardless of weather conditions, every day on ached ule time, and they have reduced the time for delivery of well between the two cities to two hours. Trial trips have been made from Now York to Chicago and plans are laid for the establishing of aeroplane mail service to Stn Fran- cisco and St Paul and t/ll the Targe cities in the central and Southern states They are planned to go even beyond the country. The principle cities of Canada► and points in the West Indies and South America -are included in the vast planes. The machines at present in use will carry 650 pounds of mail, or say 13 bags of 50 pounds, but there must b. many larger machines available, The time which it is expected to take from New York to Chicago is nine; henna as against 21 hours -by the lastest passen- ger train. • RMM S One would expect that after the hard trials they have come through, and the .., narrow eaca:pe'the�'trito i itrdefeat and auLjugation - and •.-tick subsequent vic tory, the French people might be some - .what "liberal if not magnanimous in the making of_ peace with Germany. - 'A They are not so, however. -They ap- pear to be , much mere vindictive than the British . or the Americans and bre determined to impose very hard, if not the hardest possible, terms upon the beaten enemy. They will insist that the Rhine River be the western bound i sy of Germany, so far as military con- siderations'go, and for their own future Security against attack they will trust only theirown military force. Their jurists, too, have found that the ex - kaiser may legally be held responsible for the atrocities committed by the Ger- man soldiers- which ' means the- t he should be hanged like a common mar derer. In justification of this attitude to wards" the ex kaiser and the German man people they quote a letter written during the war by the then, kaiser to the then emperor of Austria. In this letter Wilhelm said: "My soul is torn asunder, but everything must be put to fire and blood. The throats of men and women, children and the aged, must be cut, and not a tree nor ath^use left standing. "With such methods of terror, which alone can et: ike so degenerate a people as the French. the war will finish befrre two months, while, if I use` humanitar- ian methods, it mail prolong for years." That reference to. the degenerate French is likely to cost the Gerivans a something', and no doubt accounts in measure for the hardness of the French heart towards their would be conquerors. - WOULD HANG EX -RAISER Rev. De :Newell Dw;ght Millis, second successor of Henry N +ird B3echer, in Plymouth Congregational Church, Broo- klyn, last week gave an address in Tor- onto on German Atrocities in the course whish he advocated executiou of the ex kaiser by hanging.* Dr. Hillis said that he did not wish to be vindicative, but he nevertheless expressed the strongest hatred of the G-2rmtns, and his attitude" appears to have been one of aim est sav- age revenge. When the United 'States catered the war Dr. Halle wag par pitted to visit France and Belgium, and while there he gave special attention to the subject of atrocities slid td have been committed by the Germans It seems to have been his business to learn what he could of the matter and then come back and tell the American people about it in cele- that they alight know the tart of enemy they were fighting, and beck up te' government accordingly. He appears to have found conditions much worse than he,expected, and to have been fill- ed with inexpr sable hatred of the Ger- man& and -all their works. Ile seem}- too, to regard the ex -kaiser as representative of the German nation, and largely re- sponsible for all the evil which was done. He refers to the Germans as common murderers, and cannot see that they eta properly have a place at the I'eaee Conference. There are leaders of thought in. the United States, however, who take a dif ferent view from I)r Hillis, and who, judging—from hiatiney; seise that -a--dead king is more dangerous than a living one • I ,this-a►Lwaya excites sionpathy for the 'sufferer, and the deafl are mnr/ read- ily gtorifi;d then the living. The ex - kaiser kept in comfort -but safely de prived of all power, might be leap dangerous than if be were hanged and buried like a clog. Vet while the hang- ing of murderers is recognized ae' the Rheuznathag.-- Entirely Gone After Twenty-seven Years of Suffering --Swelling and Puffi- ness Ras Disappeared — Not a Pain or an Ache Left. A most astoniedting cure of rheu- ruatlem and eczema has been report- ed here, and Mrs. Ray is enthusiastic in telling her many friends how oure was effected. Rheumatism and eczema frequently go together, and in this case caused the most keen distress imaginable. All the swelling and puffiness result- ing from many years of rheumatism have disappeared, and there ie not a pain or an ache left. Mr. G. H. Ray, R.R.

CANADIANS AND AMERICANS' We occasionally hear of something -disagreeable and boastful appearing.in prominent United States newspapers, or some ignorant :braggart tells bow it didn't take Uncle Sam long to. win the war when he got into it. Let us re member that there are fools in every country, and we must not assume that the fool, when he speaks, - represents hie country. It is safe -to assume thit, as an expression • of opinion or sentiment towards Ceenada, the following article from the New York Tinges is much more repr sentati ve of the people of the United States than are the babblings of those who think that "We (the i'. 5 ) won the war." The Tinges article ready as fcilowF: This war has, somehow, brought the Canadians and ourse Set closer together than ever before. :17- i American eoldi'r has come in contact with the Canadian troops in this weer without feeling hip heart warm towards them It has beeo my personal gond fortune to see much of them. It is no partiality, but an in formed opinions Kluged by the very beast observers that, all things considered, the Canadians made the beat corps record of any troops who fought in this war. Of these troops no inconsiderable por- tion were citizens of the United States For this reason and perbaue for others, the Canadian soldier has conceived a deep and sincere feeling of brotherhoe d of Anierica From the magnificent cem- mander of the corps, General Sit Arthur Currie, down to the last private, this re tspect and affection is shared by the Can- adian fr.rces. They all predicted what afterward actually happened in the rap developrne t Of the green American into an tlieierat soldier. The like thing h.td Wearier happened to them ire their experiences cf over four years, and they knew that the , American was made of the genie stuff. If the -war had lss'ed another year or two the-Arneriean at my w„uld have eon tuned many corps precisely like the Canadian. The Americans and Canad- ians bad the sante etualitie' ; th et is to say, th ,y all bad the courage that any other soldiers had, plus that resourceful- ness and ability to tike care rf them- selves peculiar to the North America breed. I recall that when" 1 visited Canadian (' �rl►i'Headtliiartcra, about June 1—the -daxrkest hoe.?-+°,f--t-he=war---I-fnund ahem - a sentiment that filled ale with awe. The N;anadiens were prepared fr,y t►a--- tinction. _ Nat' one of them t-xpected anything except to sell his life as dear}y as possible The 1 oche was thunder- ing toward l'arite and apparently at that moment he could net he stepped. But every Canadian inti ler and man was ready to give his -self to the end that, if when I1ttits wits rt''iClit3tl, tl�ta Oert�ititl!! .illould be in Such a state of etllatisti0h to slake their victory empty because would not have strength to stand against the c neoniing tide of fresh Am- ericans. The Americans got in sooner than ass expected, and throueh their bele at tLe Marne and elsewlia re the Canadians were enabl. d to furui. the spearhead of a vict,.ri(us advance' in- stead of offering themselves up as,a sac ritice. Their losses were lieav) ate it way but the corps, wish its replacements, is still a corps. I say again that tbeee brothe;.s hi arms from North America are' the. best interpreters of the real,. Ilritain to Amer- ica and the real America to Britain.
