SBA.FORTH, FRIDAY, Max. 10, 1916
The War'Situation '
although it seemed last week that
ha' German offensive at Verdun hal
been °checked, fighting has been
continued this week without intermis-
sion although despite the greatest ef-
fort, of- the war, Germany has not
made any real progress. The tosses
on both kiss, particularly among the
Gerinans have been fearful, the.
dead almost equalling the. wounded,
at; thousands of the latter; who were
'wounded in the desperate charges of
the enemy, could not be. rescued and
perished with the cold. The Germans
have Made gains at Vitrfoug points,
•and at different tirrieEa but vane
Which have availed them practically
nothing. As we pointed out laet week.
the capture ol Verdun, strong for-
.
trees, las t is, will nottin any sense
prove 'a calamity to the Allies. t.
they are driven out from one fort
after anothe,r, they will retire to
their prepated positions in the
eights behiad. In the meantime
these fortsare splendid protection to
the Allies soldiers, so much so that
their losses in men are comparatively
ail when coirmaxed to those of the
enemy, who have to make their ,at-
tacks against them in the open. The
capture of Verdun will not smashthe
Frenah lines and anything short of
this is a poor recompense for the
sacrafice of so many thousands Of
their men. Very soon this Will be

break the Allied line, even, the vie -
tory would be a dearly bought( one

. In the other war centres, there, has . --
been little activity during the Week,
The Dominion Parliament.
' The House of Commons during the
week has been discussing the ques-
toin of prohibition. A bill has been
introduced calling for the total pro-
iiibition, importation, neanufacture and
sale of all Intoxicating beverages in
Canada until the end of the war
Jug whet support will be given. the
bill it is hard to pay as the Cabi-
net and both parties are widely at
variance' on the question, although a
majority of members frotn all the
brevinces appear to favor it. )The
government, however, have intimated
that an amendment will be forth com-
ing which provide that where any
Province has adopted prohibition to
the full extent of its constitutional
powers and asks to:, have it eupple-
enented by Federal authority, the Do-
minioo will take such steps as are
- necessary to make the prohibition. ab-
solute. In other words, in such cases
the Dominion will prohibit the im-
portation into and probably the manu-
facture of liquor in such province. In
either case the House will have the
opportunity of voting on a More dras-
tic measure of prohibition than has
over been submitted to 11,`
The sharpest debate of the session
occurred on Tuesday, when Sir Wil-
frid Laurier moved resolution ask-
ing for an investigation bY a select
committee of the House' of the
work of the shell committee. The
work of tide committee has met with
some very severe criticism by the
people and through the press of Can-
ada, and rightly so. The Committee
as first appointed. by the Minister of
Militia Was' composed largely of men
interested in the iron and ` steel
trade and manufactarers,who let
oontracts, to theres.eives, passing ever
bonatide manufacturers and operating
through middlemen, who went about
peddling their contracts', the result
being that little work was done and
few shells went from Canada. Finally
the British Minister of Munitions,
Lloyd-deorge. sent Mr. D. A. Thomas
aver to investigate why only two per
cent- of the war =orders sent to Can-
ada had been fined. The investigation
rif 1,fr. Thomas was , not 'very t lengthy
but it was very thorough, and as a
result the Commission' was re-organ-
